Strain Name: Pre-98 Bubba
Strain Fidelity: First time having Pre-98 bubba, but it's one of the strains that was recommended to me several times when looking for skunk because of it's old school intensity.
Size of buds: 8/10 One nice sized bud
Bag Appeal: 9/10 Nice trim, nice purple hues and darker greens, bright orange hairs, strong old school dank smell. Without smoking it, you know you're in for a treat.
Cure & Humidity: 9/10 Superb terps locked inside, nice humidity, good job on all accounts
Smell Intensity: 8.5/10 It's got a pretty strong smell and it made my wife bitch (she didn't like it, lol). Definitely an old school vibe to it, not quite skunky but rank and dank, almost kushy, body odor type smell
Harshness vs Smoothness: 8.5/10 Bubba strains are rarely super smooth and this one is no exception. It has a strong taste that can be a bit overwhelming, smoke does come through a bit too.
Burn 10/10 Tight white ash, cigar like
Taste Intensity: 9/10 Smells similar to how it taste, with a sharpness that is a bit unexpected. Overpowers the smoke real well, but the smoke is present and discernable.
Taste Complexity: 9/10 A bit of classic bubba, some definitive funk and skunkiness, bit of spice/herbal, very nice strain.
Buzz Intensity: 10/10 Strong full mind and body buzz that lasts longer than usual, this is some heavy duty shit.
Price: Couldn't find the product on the site just now, so I assume they ran out. Most of their strains seem to be 200$ tops except a few.
Value: Definitely would not be a steal at 200$, good stuff
'A' Scale Rating: AAAA

Strain Name: Charlie Sheen
Strain Fidelity: A cross of Blue Dream, OG Kush and Green Crack, all strains I've tried. Definitely has a strong kush background so the OG definitely comes through strong.
Size of buds: 8/10 Nice sized bud sample
Bag Appeal: 8.5/10 Look-wise, it's nothing crazy, has a nice trim, nice vibrant greens, nice orange hairs. What really grabs the attention is the rank and dank smell, but also it's stickyness. This is literally the stickest weed I've seen in 20+ years, even breaking the bud with my hands every single part composing this bud is sticky, down to the stem, absolutely crazy.
Cure & Humidity: 9.5/10 My poor, poor grinder. This stuff didn't grind, it lumped up in balls of sticky, hard the hardest time turning the grinder. The 0.5 loss is because of the lumping, but I'm nitpicking, cause it rolled well and burned well despite this.
Smell Intensity: 9/10 Smells awesome and strong
Harshness vs Smoothness: 10/10 Strong kushes usually come out as a bit harsh, this isn't the case at all, smokes super smooth, absolutely perfect
Burn 10/10 Insane oil ring, more oil and the thing might have dripped. Burns white.
Taste Intensity: 10/10 No noticeable smoke/combustion taste, intense terps, very very enjoyable experience
Taste Complexity: 9/10 A strong kush, some lemon/sharp/sour mixed in there, some hints of skunk. Amazing strain.
Buzz Intensity: 10/10 This is an hybrid and it shows, got a strong full mind and body buzz that lasted a long time. Had intense and wild dreams that night too, which is unusual for me.
Price: 225/OZ
Value: Absolutely worth it.

Strain Name: Wonder Woman
Strain Fidelity: As per wikileaf: 'The father is the product of crossing a landrace Thai, Haze and Skunk #1 hybrid mother with one of his own pure Skunk #1 males.'. Can't say I recognized much of those in there. Reminds me of Dancehall.
Size of buds: 7/10 One of the smaller samples, average sized bud.
Bag Appeal: 7/10 Not a fan of that type of weed, has a bit of a brownish look, the whole structure inside when you break it up is like small scale, very thin end stems, very small leaves, not much trichomes. Smell is nice, but not super strong. Trim is nice.
Cure & Humidity: 8.5/10 Good humidity, smells came out stronger when breaking it up
Smell Intensity: 7.5/10 Like several fruity strains, it doesn't have a very intense smell
Harshness vs Smoothness: 8.5/10 Very smooth, but you can taste the smoke through it fairly well.
Burn 10/10 White ash
Taste Intensity: 7.5/10 You can taste the terps well through the smoke
Taste Complexity: 7/10 The dominating taste is fruity, kinda like dried berries/grapes, a bit of similarity with cherry strains. Some herbal and dampness tones in the background that are less pleasant.
Buzz Intensity: 7/10 Feels like an hybrid buzz, not very strong, but pleasant.
Price: 210/OZ
Value: Fairly average but no bad scores, just nothing that really stands out, personally would be a bit sad paying 210 for this. Would feel fairer at 160-180ish.
'A' Scale Rating: AAA

Strain Name: Gelato (unspecified pheno)
Strain Fidelity: Definitely has that signature dank smell and taste of the few Gelato samples I've had (45 and 3)
Size of buds: 7.5/10 Fairly average, had one bigger bud and a smaller one
Bag Appeal: 9/10 Gorgeous colors, caked, strong stapple gelato smell, good trim, very good looking weed.
Cure & Humidity: 8/10 Could have been a bit fresher, but well within reasonnable levels. A bit sticky.
Smell Intensity: 8/10 Not outrageously strong, but definitely spreads to the room pretty fast.
Harshness vs Smoothness: 8/10 It had a tinge of harshness, but it's smooth overall. I had a cough when I tried this so it's possible the perceived harshness was just that.
Burn 10/10 Nice white ash, no issues
Taste Intensity: 8/10 Nice strong taste, but it has a bit of smoke/combustion taste mixing with the terps.
Taste Complexity: 8/10 Predominant strong taste of kush (the gassy body odor type) mixed with some citrus, very nice
Buzz Intensity: 8/10 Nice strong buzz, felt indica leaning hybrid. Didn't last super long, but I've been smoking more lately, so it could just be my tolerance playing tricks.
Price: 150/OZ
Value: Priced right, better than a lot of 200$+ weed I've tried, good deal at 150
'A' Scale Rating: AAA+

Strain Name: Lemon Cookies
Strain Fidelity: The classic GSC smell and taste is there, full on, with a slight lemon/citrus touch. Sounds about right ;)
Size of buds: 8/10 A single nice sized bud
Bag Appeal: 7.5/10 Looks fairly generic other than the long hairs. Trim is nice but still has half-leaves all over. Not much of a looker, but nothing wrong with it either.
Cure & Humidity: 8/10 Proper, could be a bit fresher but otherwise no complaints
Smell Intensity: 7.5/10 Not the strongest of smell, but it's a nice smell, very pleasant
Harshness vs Smoothness: 10/10 Smooth as silk, the type of weed where you pretty much can't taste the smoke, it's 100% terps.
Burn 10/10 White ash, steady burn, perfect
Taste Intensity: 8/10 Like most GSC strains, it's not a strong taste but the lack of smoke taste allows you to fully enjoy it.
Taste Complexity: 8.5/10 This taste predominantly of 'generic GSC', lacks the peppery/spicy side of thin mints or forum cut, but has a very doughy/creamy taste and smoke. Less predominant is a very nice sweet citrus/lemon taste that blends perfectly with the doughy main. Very pleasant smoke.
Buzz Intensity: 7.5/10 Like most 'generic' GSC close relatives, it's not the strongest weed in terms of potency, but it's a nice well rounded hybrid buzz.
Price: 195/OZ
Value: Priced fairly

Strain Name: God's Green Crack
Strain Fidelity: I've had this strain several times, always as samples, and I've always had a 'meh' experience with it and I can't quite pinpoint what exactly is 'typical' GGC. It just feels like ultra generic weed to me and well, this one fits the bill, so I guess... I dunno?
Size of buds: 8/10 One nice sized bud with 2 tiny ones
Bag Appeal: 9.5/10 It's losing 0.5 to the smell because like I said, generic, but damn those colors and trichs are really nice looking. The GGC I had before was always much greener, this one has some rich purples and very dark greens.
Cure & Humidity: 5/10 This was by far the driest sample of the lot and it was well past it's prime, dry to the core. When I ground it, I ended up with a significant amount of dust on the table.
Smell Intensity: 5/10 The dryness killed this one, borderline hay, but once broken up the terps woke up a bit.
Harshness vs Smoothness: 7/10 Not as bad as I thought it would be considering how dry it was, it was a fairly pleasant smoke in terms of smoothness.
Burn 9/10 Burned white and well.
Taste Intensity: 7/10 Not tasteless, not too harsh.
Taste Complexity: 3/10 Again the dryness tanks it, most of the terps, whatever they were, are long dead. Best I can describe it is generic/flowery. As the terp hound that I am, I had no fun smoking this.
Buzz Intensity: 7/10 Decent hybrid buzz, leaning sativa, fairly average
Price: 185/OZ
Value: Perhaps a fresher version of this might work out better, but as it is, this is barely 100$/OZ material in my book
'A' Scale Rating: AA+
Notes: Dryness is the overreaching problem with this strain. The look is absolutely exotic and breathtaking, it's sad to see such a nice bud ruined by excessive dryness.

Strain Name: Jet Fuel
Strain Fidelity: Only ever had Jet Fuel once and it was very different from this. This one was kushy, while the other I had was fruity with no kushyness at all. Not sure what's going on here?
Size of buds: 8.5/10 A single nice sized bud
Bag Appeal: 7/10 Fairly generic looking, nice trim, noticeably dry on first look, not much smell
Cure & Humidity: 6.5/10 This was dry, not as bad as the GGC, but definitely drier than I like.
Smell Intensity: 7/10 Not very strong, mostly because of the dryness. Once busted up it showed a bit more personality.
Harshness vs Smoothness: 9/10 Very pleasant smoke, smooth!
Burn 9/10 White ash, burned well
Taste Intensity: 7.5/10 Surprisingly more tasty than expected
Taste Complexity: 7/10 Like I said in my mind this strain is usually fruity, I get absolutely none of that here. It's really a typical kush taste, but more airy/gassy however. This is surprising to me, Jet Fuel is supposed to be a sativa and I really don't associate the kush smell to sativas.
Buzz Intensity: 7/10 Fairly average buzz, definitely sativaish
Price: 175/OZ
Value: Kinda steep at 175, would be more aptly priced at 130ish IMHO
'A' Scale Rating: AAA

Strain Name: Red Congolese Live Resin
Strain Fidelity: Never had Red Congo! Baptism by fireeee!
Size of buds: N/A
Jar Appeal: 8/10 Not goopy at all, has a slick greasy/doughy appearance. Color is fairly light.
Cure & Humidity: N/A
Smell Intensity: 4/10 Not much smell right out of the jar
Harshness vs Smoothness: 10/10 Well done live resin, very smooth, I can take nice draws and not cough
Burn N/A
Taste Intensity: 10/10 Nice rich full flavored ('dabbed' in pico/sai from 280 to 420f, started really showing taste at 330 which is higher than most concentrates)
Taste Complexity: 9/10 Often seen this strain described as spicy, didn't get much of that. I got a taste that I associate with older landrace sativa strains, very similar to Lamb's Breath. It's similar to a kush profile, but more flowery with a tinge of spice
Buzz Intensity: 9/10 Nice clear headhigh buzz, almost no body buzz, typical of a strong sativa
Price: 60/G
Value: Fairly priced, but I have a psychological barrier of 50$ for live resin considering lots of places offer it for that. That said, this was some good shit and it's the first time I see Red Congo live resin, so kudos!
'A' Scale Rating: AAAA
Incentive for Customers: N/A
Incentive for Review: Samples offered for free for a review, unbiased as usual.
Notes: Very impressed by the humidity levels on most strains, samples from most MOMs are either bone dry or beyond their prime, so it's refreshing and nice to get plush and fresh product that's been properly cured and preserved!
