Pros, cons, and my overall feels on Galaxy Treats' new Orbital Line.
“Blast off and explore the universe“.
That’s the core of what Galaxy Treats aims to help us do. But that’s a pretty big claim, considering there’s a sea of delta-9 THC edibles with extremely high doses that also deliver on their promises. As a high-tolerance user, I naturally had to put them to the test.
Let’s dive in.

Most Galaxy Treats reviews online are generally positive. The website has a range of Delta-9 THC gummies, and some even include trippy substances like Amanita muscaria extract from amanita mushrooms for a deeper blast into those cosmos.
I’m personally itching to try their Amanita Mushroom Gummies (let us know if you want them reviewed next). But, for the sake of canna culture, I noticed Galaxy Treats recently dropped a new Orbital Line featuring nothing but strain-specific terpenes and Delta-9 THC—10mg per gummy, to be exact.
My first thoughts? It’s not a wild dose and it won’t take you to the moon unless you have a low-to-average tolerance to D9. But that average dose makes customization easy. Simply take more if you need a boost (each jar has 20 gummies).
Beginner users might even want to start with a quarter to half a gummy. A serving size of 2-5mg of Delta-9 THC can have quite a noticeable effect, especially in low to moderate users.
I sampled all four varieties in their Orbital line. Let’s get to know them a bit better:
Cherry (Sativa): Classic bright red candies with a sweet cherry flavor. These gummies were designed for daytime use and a bright Sativa boost.
Lemon (Sativa): As a fan of all this zesty and sweet, their lemon gummies will probably be my favorite. This option is also Sativa-leaning and should give an energizing mood boost.
Green Apple (Hybrid): These tart green apple gummies are designed for bliss and balance. I’m personally not a big fan of sour apple-flavored gummies, but I definitely love some hybrid vibes.
Blue Raspberry (Indica + Melatonin): Designed for nighttime use, these Blue Raspberry gummies include 2mg of melatonin alongside Delta-9 THC for a restful night
With first assumptions out of the way, here’s how it went:
I started with Galaxy Treats’ Orbital Lemon 10mg D9 Sativa Gummies for a sweet wake and bake. I was absolutely correct in terms of flavor. Bright, sweet, zesty, and tart—I had no complaints.
It took about 45 minutes to start feeling anything. Mind you, I was also on an empty stomach (which you probably shouldn’t do). Sativa terpenes helped in delivering a more clear-headed buzz while the Delta-9 THC kicked off my day on the right foot.
Around 11am, I upped my buzz with one of these Orbital Cherry 10mg D9 Sativa Gummies for another pick-me-up. The mature cherry flavor was ripe and sweet with a subtle earthy kick.
This time around, it took about one hour to feel a kick. I definitely noticed a stronger boost in terms of energy compared to the Lemon gummies, which was pretty surprising. But I still prefer the lemon flavor over cherry—way more refreshing for a daytime boost.

It was around 3pm when I took down one of these Orbital Green Apple 10mg D9 Hybrid Gummies. Did I enjoy the flavor? Not really, but someone who likes the taste of tart green apple gummies would probably think differently. It was tart and sour with a puckery punch, and had me waiting about one hour to feel its effects.
The balanced buzz totally made up for my initial reaction. It was a nice blend of balance and bliss that helped me ride the wave of my afternoon tasks without the usual upticks of stress. I definitely enjoyed the vibe from these hybrid gummies.

Last but not least were Galaxy Treats’ Orbital Blue Raspberry 10mg D9 + 2mg Melatonin Indica Gummies. Since their other gummies took effect within an hour, I took this Indica gummy 60 minutes before my usual bedtime.
That 2mg of melatonin didn’t mess around. Along with strain-specific indica terpenes and 10mg of Delta-9 THC, I was honestly exhausted. Was it because I was testing weed gummies all day? Maybe. But still, the effects kicked in and I was blissed out.
I will say—I don’t react the best to melatonin. These gummies had me feeling a tad foggy the next morning. Again, this was likely due to the gummy testing extravaganza, but it’s also something I’ve experienced with melatonin in the past.
For the sake of a full review, here’s what to expect from the ingredients list in Galaxy Treats’ Orbital Gummies. It’s pretty clean, without high-fructose corn syrup or artificial flavors. See the full list here:

Potency: At 10mg per gummy, they’re pretty average in terms of dosage. Most brands have 10mg d9 gummies, but the real difference was the addition of strain-specific terpenes and genuinely delicious flavors.
Flavor Selection: What’s nice about Galaxy Treats’ Orbital Gummies is that they’re packed with flavors associated with their effects and mood: Daytime (Sativa Lemon and Cherry), balanced (Hybrid Green Apple), and nighttime (Indica Blue Raspberry)—giving you more control over your experience.
Quality: As listed in the ingredients above, these Orbital gummies are pretty clean. And they’re also third-party lab-tested. The difference? Galaxy Treats has an entire page dedicated to test results on every single product. That’s not something we see every day.
Effects: The strain-specific terpenes really help give each gummy their own flair and feeling. While experienced users can expect the typical euphoric and relaxed effects associated with 10mg of Delta-9 THC, these Orbital Gummies offer a more specific way to feel your desired effects.

Yes, Galaxy Treats gummies are federally legal in the USA. They’re made from hemp-derived Delta-9 THC that complies with the 2018 Farm Bill, containing less than 0.3% THC by dry weight. This means they’re technically not marijuana products despite containing the same THC molecule found in the cannabis plant.
However, state laws are different. And some have specifically banned hemp-derived cannabinoids like Delta-8 and especially Delta-9. Always check your local laws and regulations before ordering.
Regardless of state, it’s still against the law to drive or operate heavy machinery while using cannabis or hemp products. Pregnant or nursing women should also avoid using them.

The most reliable place to purchase Galaxy Treats products is straight from their website. Beyond their Delta-9 Orbital line, their shop also features the above-mentioned Amanita mushroom gummies and other Delta-8 products for those in states with specific restrictions.
