** Product received for free, won a contest on here from TGA for 420, thanks a lot TGA for this opportunity! **
MOM Name The Green Ace
Overall rating out of 10: 9/10
Sign Up: Didn’t sign up just exchanged via Discord, told him my picks gave my shipping address and that was ...it.
Ordering & Pricing: The win was a choice between their Gas Demon bundle or their top shelf AAAA mix and match OZ. I went for the mix and match OZ for more variety and also not a fan of death bubba (which was half the demon bundle). Didn’t check individual price on the items I chose but TGA has good price/value weed as usual.
Communication: Quick courteous replies. Didn’t get tracking immediately, but free is free, hard to complain :) Prob just forgot, when I asked for it by email I got it almost instantly.
Packaging: Bubble mailer, vac sealed, then mylar style zips all well labeled, buds are intact, all is good.
Products / Photos: https://i.imgur.com/xwKCkET.jpg https://i.imgur.com/H7K2VWX.jpg Strain Name: Purple Space Cookies (by Gas Demon)
Strain Fidelity: I’ve had two types of PSC and all the literature I find on google points to different obscure lineages. This is definitely a more cookie leaning version of it (others I’ve had were more grapes/sweet). This is some of the best cookies leaning version of it I’ve had.
Size of buds: 8/10 Average for the most part, one bigger bud (pictured)
Bag Appeal: 8/10 Nice purple color, some cake but not excessive, good trim
Cure & Humidity: 7.5/10 Cure is good but it’s dryer than I like
Smell: 8/10 Smells real nice, but does not have the grape/sweet taste I associate with PSC usually. Definitely has some GSC nose to it, that distinct peppery kush smell.
Harshness vs Smoothness: 9/10 Very smooth smoke, can take pretty huge tokes without choking.
Taste Intensity: 8/10 I might not be the best to judge cookie strains as their terps do not seem to register much for me, but this was some of the best cookie-cross I’ve had in terms of intensity. Very nice smoke, extremely subtle hints of grape/sweetness coming through.
Taste Complexity: 9/10 Very much enjoyed the range of terps on this one. Some pepper, some savory, some kush, some grape, some sweetness. I’m less into peppery in general as many know, but this one was subtle on that terp and there’s a nice mix of everything in there.
Buzz Intensity: 8/10 Not the strongest PSC I’ve had but very decent, no complaints!
Price: 250$/OZ
Value: 250$ is a bit steep for it IMHO but I’ve had much worse 250$ stuff :)
’A’ Scale Rating: AAA+ in my book, they sell it as AAAA.
Strain Fidelity: First time having this strain ’pure’ (had a few crosses). Definitely is sour but could not taste or smell any diesel in there.
Size of buds: 9/10 One huge 4.8g bud with 2 tiny ones. I split this quarter with another Discord user and took the pics after shipping his half, kept only the smaller ones.
Bag Appeal: 7/10 Looks pretty generic as far as colors and everything goes. The 4.8g nug was extremely compact and had a very close trim. Looks nothing special, but as you can see on the microscope pic, it’s next level caked.
Cure & Humidity: 6/10 Very dry, driest of the 4 strains I got in this pack.
Smell: 7/10 It has a nice smell, but it’s very muted by the dryness
Harshness vs Smoothness: 9/10 Very smooth smoke but if you take a very large toke, it does have some bite at the end.
Taste Intensity: 9/10 This is not a super intense strain in terms of taste, but it still totally overtakes the smoke. I was surprised that a strain with such mute nose would taste that bold. Real nice.
Taste Complexity: 8/10 The sourness is pretty much the only thing that comes through but it’s really nice. Reminds me sour cream, the smoke is very think and creamy and the bigger the toke, the more sour it gets.
Buzz Intensity: 9/10 Really nice sativa buzz. Pretty strong but not overpowering, not much crash. Excellent daytime stuff.
Price: Sells for 225/OZ
Value: Again the dryness makes it a bit of expensive at 225, but it’s a very nice bud.
’A’ Scale Rating: AAA+ for me, would be AAAA if fresher.
Strain Fidelity: Haven’t had that strain before AFAIK but it definitely has some GSC lineage in it
Size of buds: 4/10 Popcorn all over
Bag Appeal: 6/10 The size of buds really kills it here, but the buds themselves are pretty dense and nice looking. Trim is a bit rough, but it has nice colors.
Cure & Humidity: 9/10 This was the less dry of all strains and still had some plush to it, very good cure. Bigger buds of this must have been epic.
Smell: 8/10 Doesn’t smell very strong (like all GSC crosses IMHO) but it does smell real nice. A mix of kush, pepper and sweetness.
Harshness vs Smoothness: 8/10 Smooth smoke, no complaints.
Taste Intensity: 7/10 Doesn’t have a very intense taste, but it definitely overpowers the smoke
Taste Complexity: 8/10 Nice mix of pepper, kush and sweetness.
Buzz Intensity: 7/10 Fine indica buzz, not super strong
Price: Sells for 220/OZ
Value: Bit steep at 220. I would value this one lower than all 3 other strains I got (which were in the same price range).
’A’ Scale Rating: Sold as AAA+, could rate it closer to AAA-
Strain Fidelity: Never had that strain before. I expected something gassy, but I was taken aback because the smell right out of the bag was dominantly fruity. Reminds me a bit of White Widow, minus the pine/skunk hints.
Size of buds: 6/10 Pretty small buds
Bag Appeal: 7/10 Again the small buds makes it hard to appreciate visually. The trim is good, the buds are round and dense. Not much cake to be seen with the naked eye.
Cure & Humidity: 7/10 On the dry side
Smell: 8/10 It was out of the 4 strains the nicest smelling one by far, but it was not intense (mainly due to dryness).
Harshness vs Smoothness: 9/10 Very smooth, no complaints!
Taste Intensity: 9/10 Very good taste, takes over the smoke totally, it’s all terps
Taste Complexity: 9/10 I totally did not expect this from the smell, but this strain had a sourness as it’s dominant taste. In fact, it was very close in taste to the Sour Diesel, a sharp sour taste. The fruitiness that dominated the bag smell does not really translate into the taste, but the sweetness of it definitely does, complementing the sourness really well. This was a pleasure to smoke.
Buzz Intensity: 8/10 Similar to the Sour Diesel again, sativa buzz, little crash, nothing super strong, but very competent.
Price: Sold at 225/OZ
Value: Again the dryness disqualifies it as a true quad and 225 might be a bit steep, but it’s still acceptable considering it’s a very nice smoke overall.
’A’ Scale Rating: Sold as AAA+, I agree with that rating.
Incentive for Customers: TGA has above average weed at low prices. None of it I’d call true quads from what I tried, but consistent legit good AAA+ stuff.
Incentive for Review: None, I review all I get.
Notes: As with my previous review of them, their flower is a bit on the dry side. I prefer more humid, but it’s still well within acceptable range.
Arriving as attractive medium-to-large nugs with a clean trim, this **Blue Mango** has a faint blueberry aroma, with a splash of earthy dankness. Grinding up the robust, well-grown bud releases more of its fruity sweetness, and this Blue Mango leads off with woody, earthy notes before easing into a ...sweet undertone of pleasing blueberry and tropical fruit as temperatures increase. This balanced indica-leaning hybrid can be a bit of a creeper with its long-lasting relaxation, appetite enhancement and sedative properties of moderate potency, making it an ideal evening strain.

Efficacy & Potency: 7.5/10
Aroma, Taste & Enjoyment: 8/10
Bud Structure & Visual Appeal: 8.5/10

Meat Breath Shatter - The Green Ace / TGA - Mar '19
This is immediately after unfolding the paper :) I have no idea lol It smells sour and gassy, almost salty in a strange way. It’s really delicious as well.
