Kinda enjoyed the switch over to smalls, yeah I know it's not as great, but it really does help with my wallet. Eventually, I'll save for a nice treat maybe some PBB stuff between my newly found love for smalls. Poncho did a really great job with this one, I got that creamy fruit terps comin...g out of it, not sure if it was papaya or not, but quite sweet dank. A tad bit dry, but kind of expected from smalls. Should be even better after I jar it with a boveda.

Lineage: Chemdawg x Wedding Cake

Medellin doesn't seem to be anything special when comes to appearance having mostly an olive shade of green. There are few bits of purple on leaves, pistols carry a rusty orange colour, and buds are coated by a layer of white crystal trichomes. The cur...e is perfect they're very sticky, easily gumming up fingers. Very nice cripsy feel and snap on the outside and has the right amount of moisture when grounded. 

The terps are definitely one of the highlights. Rich, sharp, and pungent aromas of chemical gas along notes of lemon citrus & pine. There were also hints of sourness and dough. The flavour is more pungent than rich with a strong spicy and gassy draw, followed by a trail of pine, and sour dough at the backend. The doughiness seemed to linger throughout even on exhale. It's indeed a strong smoke and gives that tickle to the throat, especially when hitting the bong.

The burn quality was good overall, not harsh, and tasted clean despite not having a preferred light colour ash as it turned out to be salt and pepper. Decent burning properties and a little greasy at times.

Medellin slaps pretty darn good. The effects felt more balanced to me and it's one that's perfect for anytime except for bedtime, as it'll keep you awake with its very stimulating cerebral effects. A strain for creativity and productivity, not sedating in the slightest way, though the physical effects are notable, but on a lighter scale. There was a light to moderate amount of body relaxation as my mind was full of energy.

I'm glad that I was able to try this, it's a solid hybrid that checks most boxes. It gets my recommendation except if looking for a white colour ash. Picked up a quarter for $50 after points and coupons, and at that price, it's good value for what it is.

Omg, lol! This one was crazy. Starting off with how it looks, WOW! Totally caked... maybe more trichomes than there was green, crystals all over the cracks, nice and dense buds too. Smoke was pretty good too, a nice sweet creaminess, had that ”BERRY PUNCH” nose, but was lighter on smoke. Potency... is nice, smoke and burn was awesome. Quality 9.5/10 Value 9/10

Lineage: Cactus Breath × Lickz

I'm really digging these cactus strains! I thought Spiked Truffles was pretty good, but this is even better in most ways.

There's not much going on in terms of pretty colours, having just a base medium green tone, tiny amber-orange pist...ols, and white crystal trichomes. Buds are uniquely cone shaped and have some foxtailing occuring. Good cure and firm density, they do tend to bust out nicely when grounded.

Terps are predominantly on Runtz side, having sweet, creamy, candy, and funky notes, while the flavour strength is rich and moderate as I was able to taste each note distinctively. It was tasty, pungent, yet smooth, with sweet sour grapefruit notes along some skunkiness on inhale, ending on an earthy exhale. Definitely a stronger taste and flavour transition than Spiked Truffles.

No issues with overall smoke quality. A slow and even burn, joints stayed lit, had easily produced a resin ring, and the ash was light grey.

The potency and effects are strong, more so than Spiked Truffles. I was absolutely care free with a foggy hazey mind, while limbs and body felt profoundly relieved as I was in a couch locked state. There was some sleepiness kicking in after some time leading to a great night's rest.

Cactus Genetics seems like a competent grower. Spiked Truffles and Cautus Licker were wonderful to say the least. It was a good experience so far, and I look foward to his other drops.

Lineage: Platinum Kush Mints x Platinum Punch

My first experience with NorthernCanna and was undeniably a splendid one. Based on past positive feedback I was excited to try one of their recent drops - Platinum Punch Remix, created by a lineage that was enticing to me.

Bag app...eal was pretty good on this one. Bright light green tones with hues of medium green and purple, orange pistols, all dusted by a layer of white crystal trichomes. Very sticky herb along an optimal cure, buds are really dense and nicely trimmed.

Terpene profile leans heavily on Platinum Kush Mints side as I was barely able to detect any fruity berry notes. Main terps are sweet, nutty, doughy, and cookie-like, with undertones of mint, pine, and gas. Very aromatic yet not too pungent in smell, while the flavour transition was moderate and not too heavy. It tasted wonderful and the mintiness was present throughout, together with creamy notes on the exhale.

Burn quality is excellent. Joints instantly produced an oil ring upon ignition and continued to do so until the end. Strong tokes but smooth emitting thick clouds on exhale, and ash was firm silky white. Absolutely no issues with burn quality.

Potency is on the stronger side definitely higher than average. Another one that'll put you out if consuming large amounts. I felt deliriously happy and so uplifted every time i hit a bong. Effects last a while and left me with a floaty, spacey, head buzz all accompanied by deep, soothing, and relaxing body effects. True couch lock with some functionality left within, I was still able to enjoy light hobbies, but as time went on found myself starting to slowly drift away in sedation.

In the end, it was truly an amazing experience, and totally worth the purchase. That being said, I'll be looking foward to more from NorthernCanna, and if you were thinking about giving them a try, I certainly recommend without a doubt.
