**Bag Appeal:** Nothing special, not really frosty, light green, a little bit leafy.
**Cure & Humidity:** A little bit too dry. Cure could be better.
**Smell:** Earthy, piney a little bit, very weak....r/> **Taste:** Just like the smell, it is earthy and subtle. A little bit too harsh.
**Burn:** Dark gray.
**Buzz:** Definitely sativa creative head high that didn’t last very long. I don’t feel like it is very potent.
**Price:** 99$/oz
**Value:** 4/10 - Even for the price you can have better than that on BoxedBuds.
**’A’ Scale Rating:** AA
**Overall rating out of 10:** 4/10 - It was not a very enjoyable smoke for me. Maybe with a better cure and humidity the experience would have been better. There are definitely better options out there.
**Bag Appeal:** Caked, covered in trichomes but not much heads on the outside probably due to a lot of handling. Looks very good nonetheless. Beautiful light green with long pistils. Trim is good.
*...*Cure & Humidity:** A little bit dry but still a little bit soft when squeezing. Doesn’t crumble to dust. Acceptable humidity.
**Smell:** Sweet and herbal. A little bit of spiciness. Enjoyable, very present.
**Taste:** Herbal taste, not very sweet for a Blue Dream but still very enjoyable. Smooth at the bong.
**Burn:** Very clean, light gray to white ash.
**Buzz:** Very cerebral sativa high. For a moment I forgot what I was doing.
**Price:** 99$/oz
**Value:** 8.6/10
**’A’ Scale Rating:** AAA
**Overall rating out of 10:** 7.5/10 - So far the Zedd was the best value for me on BoxedBuds but if you like Blue Dream, that batch is a good one especially for the price.
BoxedBuds were kind enough to send me a sample pack in return of a honest review. I won’t review the MOM as itself because a lot of others did before me and my experience is limited to the discord conversation I had with the rep.
I can say that the packaging was pretty good. Individually s...ealed 1g baggies inside of a vacuum sealed cardboard box.
You will notice in my reviews that almost all strains were reviewed as a little bit dry. It should be noted that I got the samples maybe a week prior to my reviews (been busy). The only strain that I tried right away was the Zedd and it was still at a good humidity level at that moment. I kept the samples in their bag with no boveda or integra. It’s winter, it’s pretty dry in my hangout so my review might not be very reliable on humidity levels.
Most of the strains were enjoyable. BoxedBuds is looking promising for the BudgetBuds (winks).
*Note: I wrote the reviews while trying the strains and I didn’t really mind proofreading so.. well, enjoy :D

Strain Name: Melon Nuken
Size of buds: Smalls (1g sample)
Bag Appeal: It looks ok. A little bit squished but still shiny trichomes on the outside. A few sugar leaves here and there, the trim is well done.
Cure & Humidity: A little bit dry but not over dry.
Smell: Spicy, woody, earthy, very nuken. Didn’t really notice the fruity side some people are mentioning.
Taste: A little bit of sweetness/fruitiness on a mostly earthy profile.
Burn: Gray/light gray.
Buzz: Apparently this strain is indica and high CBD thanks to its Melon Kush genetic. Man am I lost right now. Very relaxed. I need to eat something. BRB.
Price: 109$/oz
Value: 7/10
’A’ Scale Rating: AA+
Overall rating out of 10: 6.5/10 - I’d probably score it around the 7 mark if I was a bigger Nuken fan as far as flavor goes. But don’t underestimate it; its a solid strain and it will get you high.

Strain Name: White Widow
Size of buds: Smalls (1g sample)
Bag Appeal: Buds have a great amount of trichomes. The trimming job is correct. Beautiful hues of purple.
Cure & Humidity: As most of the other samples I’ve got it is kind of dry. A little bit of softness when squeezing but tend to break. Feels like it was once sticky but dried off.
Smell: Gassy, sour, pungent with a piney finish.
Taste: Can taste some gassiness on inhale but pine taste is overwhelming on exhale. It has a pleasant flavor.
Burn: Salt and pepper with light gray.
Buzz: Had a good cerebral high with some body high. Good hybrid buzz.
Price: 99$/oz
Value: 9/10
’A’ Scale Rating: AAA
Overall rating out of 10: 7.5/10 - Good quality trips for low price. Had the best and strongest smell of all the samples I tried. I liked that strain and think that with a little bit more of curing/humidity the terps would be awesome. It’s a solid 99ers.

Strain Name: Willy Wonka
Size of buds: Smalls (1g sample)
Bag Appeal: Nice frosty look. Been squished a little bit in the package so the outside is kind of a mess as far as trichomes go. Some leaves. Light green with darker leaves.
Cure & Humidity: More on the dry side too but would be easily rehydrated. Still soft when squeezing. Dense nugs.
Smell: Very musky. Maybe a hint of citrus. There’s something sweet about it. Intense when ground up.
Taste: Musky on inhale with some gas on exhale. Pretty unique taste. Expected more candy like sweetness.
Burn: Light gray.
Buzz: A very sativa cerebral high. Took a few minutes before I could feel it completly. Give me a kind of creative high. I feel like writing some lyrics now but I still need to finish my review.
Price: 119$/oz
Value: 7/10
’A’ Scale Rating: AAA
Overall rating out of 10: 7/10 - The strain is good, good potency. I did not enjoy the terps that much but that’s subjective. Maybe not worth the +20$/oz compared to some others on the site.

Strain Name: Purple OG
Size of buds: Smalls (1g sample)
Bag Appeal: Very leafy. Way too leafy. Very small trichomes. Almost no heads at all. Worst looking of them all.
Cure & Humidity: Dry with some fluff. I have the feeling that it wasn’t dried decently.
Smell: Musky sour with a draft of mocha/cardboard when opening the bag. Not very enjoyable.
Taste: Very muted. Couldn’t taste much. A little bit harsh.
Burn: Darkish gray.
Buzz: Smooth indica high. I took 2 bong hits and still needed to smoke something else shortly after.
Price: 99$/oz
Value: 4/10
’A’ Scale Rating: AA
Overall rating out of 10: 3/10 - The worst of all the samples for me. Can’t believe they are selling strains like Zedd and White Widow for the same price. I wouldn’t recommend that one even for a 99ers.
Fairly small and scrappy buds with a subtle aroma and taste of sweetness mixed with that familiar nuken profile. Not overly dry or anything surprisingly being in transit for nearly 2 weeks.
Moderate potency as well that was short lived. Played out lik...e a mellow hybrid with relaxing effects. For the price this is an ok choice but I think some of the other strains have an edge on it.
Big dense chunks, dark green with dark orange hairs, bits of purple speckled throughout.
Good crystal coverage but could be better, shines a lot more when broken up. Trim is okay but a bit leafy
Has a very strong gassy nose with floral and woody notes, reminds me of pink rockstar...r/> Heavy indica smoke, great for sleep Burns good but seems like it could’ve been cured a bit better. Terps come through great in a pipe or a vape
Pressed over 20% of nice terpy rosin, crazy yields for the price 129/oz
