McGrupp (AAA+) Ordered from The Green Ace November 2019
This is not my first time ordering this strain and won’t be my last. It’s just so good I keep grabbing a bag every other month or so. I just haven’t done a review yet so. This is by far one of my favorite strains so far. I am really big on taste but of course I also need to get high(as i ...always say). This strain has it all, it looks absolutely amazing, it smells and tastes even better (has that fruity taste that doesn’t change throughout the entire joint, not too harsh at all), and the high is amazing as well. No bad side affects whatsoever for me or my Fiancée. And it works great for our anxiety as well
I ordered this and am very surprised and happy with what I got. I got it for an amazing price. Some buds are a little on the leafy side but for the most part it is what you see in the pic. And as for the high, it is just as promised. I have very bad insomnia and anxiety, this strain is more than hel...pful for putting me to sleep. It knocks me out everytime so far so goodbye anxiety as well. In my list of top 10 for sure.
I have said this before and can still say it months later, my favorite site to order from is by far The Green Ace. It is the only site I order from as I know they have super fast shipping, good fair prices, great product, and they always have good sales going on. Not only that, they are very fast at... responding to emails if needed. I recently ordered a bag of the Bubble Gum strain. Based on the comments, it sounded great and also was said to taste just like Hubba Bubba which instantly made me want to try it as I am very big on taste. When I received my delivery and opened up the bag, I could somewhat smell a light bubble gum scent, but nowhere near what the comments said. Then when smoking it, I couldn’t taste bubble gum at all. One of the comments was that it tastes extremely like bubble gum up until about half way through the joint then it got very harsh. I did not taste bubble gum, maybe lightly in the back round but also did not find it to be harsh at all. It did have a very good and fruity type taste. And the high was amazing. It helped me with my sleep issues and was actually a nice strong high that lasts. Also helped with my back pain. It was not my favorite strain, but for the price I paid, it was worth it.
Three days shipping time from BC to Ontario. Packaged in a protective box keeping everything safe from being damaged. Also no odor as the items were vacuum sealed.

Mendoc...ino Purple
- https://i.imgur.com/OKnS6M1.jpg -
This was such a beautiful and unique looking bud with it’s lovely mix of colours. Appropriate for the month as well as it reminded me of Halloween. Forest greens complimented by shades of dark purple and thick orange hairs that vibrantly pop in contrast and are visible right to the core of the bud. Not overly dense or fluffy but somewhere in between, being sticky to break apart, and sporting a very tight trim.
The nose is what I would describe as ’nutty’ with a pleasant, almost roasted or baked goods type of smell. Also some subtle undetones of sweet pine. Translates nicely and very smooth when smoked with some added hints of sweet berries and a slight woody finish. Burns on the lighter grey side.
An almost instant change of mood effects right after the initial few tokes. Uplifting and elevating body and head high, with an overall relaxed and chill vibe. Seems very balanced and also potent. My favourite of all the strains along with the Tangerine dream.
Blackberry Cookies
- https://i.imgur.com/zb6XQ3Z.jpg -
Not sure what the genetics are of this strain but I’m guessing blackberry og x gsc or one of it’s phenos. The bag appeal is there with sticky & chunky buds that are both frosty and neatly trimmed with little sugar leaf and plenty of amber trichs. Nice colors too with purple streaks going all throughout the buds.
This stuff is quite terpy and certainly smells/tastes like a combo of blackberries and cookies. Really sweet and savory, with notes of cookies and sweet berries that reach a slight sourness on the exhale. A joy to smoke as it’s easy on the lungs and burn a salt and pepper ash in a bong.
The high is very typical of anything cookies I’ve ever tried. Heady and relaxing with uplifting and euphoric effects. Pretty decent couch lock too but won’t tire you out too much, making it an ideal afternoon smoke.
Tangerine Dream
- https://i.imgur.com/tEs8IVi.jpg -
Been a while since I had tangerine dream. A cross of G13, Afghani, and Nevilles A5 Haze, and surprisingly no Blue Dream. This one from TGA came as a real dense and sticky bud, sporting a tight, neat trim, covered in a layer of trichomes. Tough to pry apart the sticky buds but still snapped nicely indicating a good moisture level.
The aroma this one produces is very pronounced with notes of sweet and tangy citrus with a peppery finish. Very flavorful on exhale with a tangy and herbal aftertaste. Kind of reminds me of celery for some reason and the people smoking with me at the time agreed lol. Pretty smooth though, even with it’s thick smoke, as well as clean burning, producing a lighter ash in a bong.
The buzz is fairly potent, bringing on a heavy cerebral high with uplifting effects, followed by a lazy body stone. A real balanced, jack of all trades type of high if you will. I enjoyed this one the most along with the Mendocino Purple.
Wedding Cake
- https://i.imgur.com/YOSrVlx.jpg -
All kinds of colours going on here on this Wedding Cake, with light and dark greens and even some yellows and purples. Kind of all blends together with a frosty blanket of trichomes. Very sticky to the touch and a tight bud structure with a minimal amount of leaf.
The profile on this wedding cake is more on the gassy side with not much of a sweet/vanilla to it until broken up. Also some floral and earthy undertones as well, giving it a mix of sweet and rich gassy goodness that translates well when smoked. Burns a salt and pepper ash with a thick and creamy smoke.
Has the perfect mix of hybrid effects that are just made for relaxing throughout the day or to cap one off. Very euphoric and floaty high but also calming. Potent and lasted a decent while as well.
Blue Dream
- https://i.imgur.com/IKI2Jvf.jpg -
Very impressive looking bud. This actually looks like some purple dream I’ve had in the past, having a substantial amount of trichomes and purple streaks. Buds are sticky and plump with a decent trim, having some sugar leaf here and there. Still probably one of the better looking blue dreams I’ve seen.
Strong notes of blueberry sweetness with a bit of subtle earth and spice. Very pleasant and aromatic. The smell translates fairly well to the taste, with a sweet berry exhale that’s smooth but can tickle the sinusus. Burns pretty clean however, leaving a lighter gray ash behind.
The effects this one provides is very heady and mellow, as well as uplifting. Slight body buzz as well but an engaging one, being a great smoke for gaming, movies, or anything social.
Blueberry Cheesecake
- https://i.imgur.com/kWejhZN.jpg -
This blueberry cheesecake is a pleasant cross between big buddha cheese and blueberry. Has a little more sugar leaf than I’d like but nothing crazy. Looks like theres real potential however, from the healthy shades of purples/greens, to the amount of full trich heads. Good humidity as well as these nugs are fairly sticky and difficult to pry apart.
The nose and taste are on the subtle side, providing a generic sweetness with hints of berry. Bit of a bitterness on the exhale, which my guess comes from the big buddha cheese. Pretty smooth on the lungs though burning a salt and pepper ash.
The high is very hybrid like and balanced, producing uplifting and euphoric effects with a slight cerebral head buzz. Calming and relaxing too, but still remains functional.
Purple Urkle
- https://i.imgur.com/2EewmBw.jpg -
This was a very alien looking version of Purple Urkle and I don’t think I’ve ever had something with this bud structure. A vibrant sea of curly orange hairs that blanketed the deep purple hues beneath. The only green on this bud was the stem and the bit of visible leaf. Quite fluffy with a moderate moisture level, not being sticky nor dry.
The nose is a mix of rich berries and herbs. Reminds me of a red wine in a way. Gets more fruity upon grinding with some subtle peppery notes as well. The flavour is slightly muted in comparison to the smell, with hints of sweet berries and herbs. It smoked rather smooth, burning a salt and pepper ash.
Found it to have a very relaxing and calming high with a tingly body buzz that kicked in quickly. Wouldn’t classify it as a knockout indica but it definitely had me feeling tired and lazy after smoking.
Diamond OG
- https://i.imgur.com/SzAfZNl.jpg -
Loved the look of this Diamond OG. Dense and tight nug structure, with a very frosty coating of trichs. A mix of lighter greens, with pale orange hairs and just a tiny amount of leaf near the base of the bud. Sticky to the touch as well when broken up.
The nose was a combination of sweet pine and citrus with a certain herbal muskyness. The taste was very similar with subtle woody undertones and burned a salt and pepper ash. Was quite smooth as well.
A winding down, end of the day type smoke as it leaves you in complete relaxation, physically and mentally. Found it to be a bit of a creeper as well only making me lazier as time went on. Traditional indica high that did the job.
Green Crack
- https://i.imgur.com/KLtoILm.jpg -
Green Crack is my go to strain when I want my high to act like an energy drink. This one came sticky and frosty with a plethora of thin orange hairs. Very vibrant looking, although not the greatest of trims as theres some extra leaf/sugar leaf.
The smell and taste is classic green crack. Peppery and herbal with spicy and earthy undertones. Really leaves a peppery/herbal tang on the exhale, and like most green cracks I’ve tried, it can be kind of a rougher smoke. Clean burning though, leaving behind a very light grey ash.
The high this one produces is a very uplifting and energetic one, leaving you completely engaged and functional. An invigorating buzz with no real burn out, making it a perfect day time smoke.
The Green Samurai 150mg THC Gummies (6x25mg per gummy)
These gummies were really tasty and great for micro dosing at 25mg per piece. They taste decent too with not that much of an overwhelming flavour of cannabis. I was also informed that the packaging would be upgraded to a pouch style baggie so thought I should mention that. I ate a pack at once as I have a higher edible tolerance and usually need 200mg to feel a good buzz. After taking 150mg I felt a very relaxing body high but not too overpowering. Gave me a mean case of the munchies too.
