kootenay craft: living soil oregon golden goat and banana kush
oldcoot is happy as a goat! a golden goat, that is...
Kootenay Craft
https://kootenaycraft.com/
: offers some of the best flowers i’ve smoked
: in general i find kootenay craft weed to be clean-smoking and a super clean high
: it might be the organic qu...ality of the craft grow, or it may be the living soil method they use for some of their most appealing buds, but i love the taste and effect of their weed
details ordering & pricing
: easy sign-up, $50-off first-time, free shipping over $140, bubble envelope, no odor, plastic containers with generic labels and a boveda inside
: they seem to have a constant special of 20% for 4 quarters, different quarters from any category, which i never really noticed but am thinking i will try soon!
: gst etc., is included in price on site, photos are impressive, they have great organic quality, and the free shipping price point is manageable
: getting to know them a bit better, they tossed in a bud last order, nice stuff, and they seem to have a lot of happy customers writing reviews on the site
banana kush
: only got a quarter as kush is usually what i smoke in lesser quantities, usually at night but, as always, the kushes i’ve been getting from kootenay make me love kushes
: nice taste, can sometimes really taste the banana; almost all of kootenay’s weeds have a great scent to them, many of them scrumptious
: effects are easy-going, mid-level strong for me, tingles over the head and upper body, ten minutes in relaxed and focused
: i especially noticed a cool rush all over top of head and face, a breeze feeling; i guess the tingles, but it felt unique
: settles into a nice body stone, very agreeable, and it paired well one night, bud-to-bud, with some cactus breath; deepened everything into quite a heavy under-the-ocean stone
living soil oregon golden goat
: got a half of this as i like to use weed specifically to write, meditate, play board games, study, and just about any other brainwork activity
: heavy sativa all around the head...and this goat kicks hard! lots of energy, some might find it aggressive, especially that urgency feeling in the chest, but with kootenay’s craft at work it seems the aggressive effects are mitigated, i guess partially due to the 1% cbd
: over the course of a few hours i notice this one keeps kicking in little jolts of what feels like a fresh hit, which is kind of unique; it’s as if i’ve taken a little hit and got a jolt, except it seems to come out of nowhere, or rather, out of the existing stone; this seems to happen 2-3 times over as many hours after taking a couple of bong rips, little waves of smaller-scale highs kicking in, which might be why it gets the goat name; don’t know, but it’s great
: a smooth smoke with an upper-strength long-lasting focus high, the more aggressive effects of which seem to be mitigated by a gentle layer of well-being; it’s almost a perfect fit for an old coot like me, but most of kootenay’s weeds feel that way
: if i compare this to two of kootenay’s other sativas, i might gave hazelnut cream the edge in terms of how relaxed i feel within the aggressive sativa stone, and the chocolate japan might be the better of the three, by a hair, in terms of higher-end focus
: truthfully, all three are badass strong sativas welcome in my house anytime!
The happy cross of *Biker Kush v2.0* x *Sour Diesel*, **Headbanger** is a powerful sativa-dominant hybrid with energetic, euphoric cerebral effects that can become mind-numbing. This particular batch arrived perfectly-fresh as scruffy, resinous small buds with minimal signs of handling and the sweet...ly-pungent aroma of skunky, gassy ‘kush.’ Following initial woody notes, this uplifting sativa eases into its pungent flavours of earth and fuel, with hints of berry sweetness as temperatures increase. Offering a long-lasting, clearheaded buzz that takes a few moments to kick in, this capable Headbanger can hit ‘between the eyes’ in higher doses.

Was fooled by its scraggly appearance initially, but def more potent than it looks + interesting in its range of effects, dependent on dosage
