Genetics : G13 x Afghani x Neville's A5 Haze

Obtained some beautiful flower from THC to review this week and couldn't help myself to not begin with this awesome batch of Tangeri...ne Dream. It's been a minute since last smoking this G13 x Afghani x Neville's A5 Haze cross by Barney's Farm. Super chunky buds that are rock solid and compact with an ultra sticky texture and perfect humidity, forming a patty in the grinder that you can turn upside down without budging. Vibrant bright greens are carefully met by faint purples and a smattering of wispy peachy orange hairs. Generously submerged in an impressive coating of greasy trichomes that despite the super close trim are still very abundant and intact.

A lot going on in the aroma department with a very lively and pungent profile that includes a nutty herbal dankness paired with a sweet floral musk. Also some spicy notes in the mix with delicate hints of sugary citrus upon longer sniffs. Very complex and layered. The flavours are just as intriguing and quite oldschool as you could expect from it's lineage. I get a burnt rubber kinda funk with a floral, spicy, skunky kick and hints of tangy citrus. The burn is A+, producing a real thick yet smooth smoke with a thick resin ring and lovely light ash.

The effects are slightly sativa leaning with a great potency to boot. It wastes no time, going straight to the head moments into a sesh, bringing on a very cerebrally focused and tranquil high that is clear headed and immersive. Found it to be awesome for anything that involves being a little creative and productive. In my case it turned out to be reviews and photography. It does come with it's relaxing qualities as well, allowing it to be enjoyed as an evening strain too and one that lasts a noticeable amount of time.

Cookies & Cream

Genetics : GSC x Starfighter F2

Bred by : @exoticgenetix_mike

Sourced by : @thehighclub.biz

A timeless exotic genetix cultivar responsible for some great crosses and one I personally love. The structure and colours are very consistent and s...imilar to most CNC's I've had with a super bright green complexion littered with fiery orange pistils and a generous dusting of milky trichomes. Hints of purple throughout as well as hints of forest green in the form of foliage. Dense and crisp on the outside with a snappy sticky texture within, all followed by a very clean tidy trim.

A very nice nose to this CNC even though it isn't too strong until busted up. Smells slightly gassy at first but is soon followed up by a creamy, nutty, vanilla cookie sweetness with underlying peppery herbal notes. The flavours are lighter in comparison and more on the herbal and spicy side, delivering a smoke that is slightly scratchy on the throat but overall ok, burning with an average sized resin ring and salt n pepper ash.

The high is a delicately balanced one, offering a mix of mellow hybrid effects that are slightly cerebral in nature in the form of a focused and creative head high. Just enough of a physical buzz to help unwind and feel calm without putting a damper on productivity. Not bad at all for what it's listed at!

Slurmint

Genetics : Slurricane #7 × Platinum Kush Mints

Bred by : @inhousegenetics.official

Sourced by : @thehighclub.biz

The lineage on this one grasped my attention right off the bat. An In House Genetics cross between Slurricane #7 × Platinum Kush Mi...nts. Buds are dense and sticky with some give when you squeeze them, followed by a lovely colour arrangement of pale pastel greens, purples, and oranges. A touch of yellowing/oxidation within. Decent trichome coverage overall but not many visible outer heads, giving the buds that furry vs frosty look.

An interesting nose to this Slurmint with the Purple Punch in the Slurricane coming through. Creamy and sweet with a grape backing followed by a herbal musk. I'm just not getting the same set of terps when it comes to the smoke unfortunately as the flavours are more on the funky herbal side with a weird kinda musty/musky taste every now and then that is hard to identify. Burns with a hefty resin ring but the ash is on the darker side.

The high may just be it's strong suit and packs a decent medium to high potency that leans heavily to the indica side. Heady and spacey with relaxing couch locking tendencies that can leave you in a lazy slumber. Certainly geared towards later in the day and evening.

Fruity Pebbles OG

Sourced by : @thehighclub.biz

Beautiful vibrant green nugs heavily populated by clusters of thick orange pistils and blanketed in a layer of long stalked trichomes. Some are lacking heads but there are equally as many with full ones as well. Dense in texture ...with an average humidity and stickiness, followed by a clean tidy trim. Found a couple premature seeds here and there that are worth noting.

I haven't had this strain in a while but the profile on this one is very different than I remember. A sickly sweet nose that is citrusy and herbal without any noticeable FPOG traits. Combustion yeilds similar results, producing a peppery herbal smoke with a faint citrus backing. Overall not a whole lot going on but she smokes smooth and clean, burning to a Iight ash while building to an average sized oil ring.

The buzz produced by this FPOG is on the lighter side, offering a balanced mix of mellow heady and physical effects that'll get the job done but are short lived. Would make a good daytime smoke for the lower tolerant individuals out there and at 100 a oz the quality is decent!

MAC #1

Sourced by : @thehighclub.biz

Easily my favourite of the bunch so far. Beautiful healthy looking buds, equipped with that typical MAC density and chunky structure as well as colour profile, showing off a mix of faded bright greens and pale purples. Generously coated in a... greasy layer of milky trichomes glistening in every nook and cranny and a population of luscious peach orange pistils. The cure on her is on point as is the trim. Sticky and snappy texture inside and out, basically rolling itself.

So the nose on this MAC is quite different overall but is still very lovely. It's not as pungent and funky like certain MACs and instead is very citrusy and lemony with a scrumptious vanilla background. Not as good as the previous batch of MAC but still an amazing value at the current tag. The terps accurately translate to flavour quite well are are very enjoyable, burning smooth and resinous with a peppery grey ash.

Effects are very balanced and well rounded with a decent potency to boot. A little bit of everything going on as it's heady and uplifting while also feeling very relaxed and easygoing. Great for both a daytime and evening smoke as it's characteristics can suit any situation with only a minor laziness left behind when the buzz dies down.
