Appearance : Bag appeal is of course low considering this is sold as smalls/popcorn but price reflects this so no surprise. Still, the trichomes covering the buds are abundant. AAA grade is on point.Freshness is ok but just a bit dry for me even with the included boveda pack, definitely not to the p...oint of resulting in dust after grinding.

Taste : Close to citrus, floral with a hint of vanilla, smooth on the throat when vaping (I did not try to combust).

Nose : Not so strong but gassy smell, reminiscent of what you would expect from classic pink strains.

Effects : somewhat mild from my experience, more of a hybrid mixed result while I was expecting more of a pure indica sedating ride.

Fast shipping and discrete packaging as usual with HGA.

Incentive for review : rebate for next order

HGA continues to surprise me with their quality bud and selections. I had many to try this time (GWIZ, Infinity Star, Forum GSC...) but the star of the show was the Mac 1.

...>Appearance: Best I've ever seen from HGA as it's frosty and decent sized nugs. Well trimmed imo.

Aroma: Smells like hints of kush-like bud. None of that grassy, lemony, type of smells associated with sativa/uplifting/energizing strains.

Flavour: Can't tell if there's any flavours at all! Tastes like regular bud with nothing special, maybe a peppery aftertaste?

Effect: It's become my favorite strain as it's a great daytime weed if you smoke just right - giving you a blissful feeling and a constant stream of thoughts and ideas. Problem when you smoke slightly too much is that I forget how to vocally piece together words and sentences. Smoke heavily enough and I would feel lost in happiness, with no words or thoughts at all.

Looking forward to trying their current MAC 1 and making a repeat order on the next Cookies Grower release.

This stuff is the best I’ve smoked in a while. Got the smalls and couldn’t be happier. Smells so gassy and tastes so kushy. Breaks up easy, light ash and a heavy stone. Perfect before bed.

Thought I would try a couple strains by Cookie Growers last order. I dont fully understand the hype but maybe I didnt select the best strains.

The Chemical Poison was fluffy and bud structure was nice but smoke was a but rough. Not very heavy indica effects which is what I look for.

The Chocolate Mint however, was more of an indica and smoked smoother. Not as potent as I was expecting but was good for after work relaxing.

Ultimately glad I tried them but not overly satisfied. May try other strains but the price point in a little steep.
