Death Star - HGA - May 22

/u/Basjoe613

A nice buzz that hits like a hybrid. Stony but without locking you down. Bud is well cured and dried perfectly. Buds are dense and have a great smell. Flavour could be better but it's still very acceptable. Good value for 129$/oz.

Purple tuna AAAA- - HGA - May 2022

/u/milesdeep1881

Purple tuna Sweet, skunky, vanilla, gas all hit when you open the bag.. medium small buds but they are dense, sticky and colourful. Extremely good buy and I would recommend to anyone who leans toward a gassier terp preference. Q- 9 V- 10

Pink MKU - HGA - late May

/u/sanctified420

So this is my 2nd oz of this. 69$ on sale you cannot go wrong. So this stuff smells extremely good. Very terpy stuff. Buds are mostly small to medium. Mostly dark greens and a bit of purple. When I bust it up more purple hues reveal themselves. This weed is good. Woody, earthy, maybe a hint of berry making it sweet. There's also some deep woodsy aromatic scents. Maybe sandalwood. Bit of a grassy taste but in a good way. Buds were manicured well. Not a bunch of leafy crap in there. Dried nicely. I think mines hovering around 55-58%. 62% is great for storage but causes joints to burn too hot imo. White ash. Stays lit like it should. I'm half way done the joint as I'm writing this and I can definitely feel the onset. It's very smooth to smoke. No coughing fits or anything like that. Just great pink flavour. This is a steal at this price.

Island Blend - high grade aid -April

/u/poisonthewell8

This was one I haven't tried before. Island Blend by High Voltage Extracts, it's a hybrid. This one has a pretty strong flavour, I'd say a strong skunk flavour. They pretty much all have the same effect on me so I just keep track of the best tasting ones. This one was enjoyable at first but got a bit tiring by the end. High Grade Aid has the best prices I can find so far. I'll likely buy this strain again and just mix it between other strains.

Pine tar RSO .. HGA.. mid May (incentive)

/u/tunaliker

Picked up this 5 gram vial of pine tar . This stuff kicks hard with just a small dose . Flavor is very strong with an aftertaste of pine in the back of my mouth for what felt like hours . Did about 2 grains of rice for a first dose and was well medicated for most of the day. Would order again for sure

Cookies grower: Quattro kush grower edition -!- HGA-!- May 2022

/u/lostsoulz289

I was really looking forward to the Quattro Kush, but it looks, smells and tastes EXACTLY like the pre98 Bubba. The only differences are: the Quattro kush grower edition has a much worse trim job (it is severely overtrimmed) and the flower is dryer than the pre98. On the plus side, the nugs are bigger and denser (average nug is over 2g). They look, smell and taste the exact same as the pre98 Bubba. I was so excited to open the bags, but I literally smelled nothing. Vaped it, and it tasted exactly like the bowl of pre98 I just had.. Quality = 80/100 Value = 40/100 I am not sure how I feel about the last 3 orders from HGA (1 bad 1 great 1 mediocre). The mandarin cookies had hairs inside the flower (black, white, and black + white) and it smelled and tasted like chinabud (I guess that's why it is called "mandarin" cookies). I did not write a review about it because I did not want anybody to try and abuse the system, but I did see a person post a picture of the mandarin cookies and I saw hairs in their picture too (unfortunately I cannot find the review). HGA having great customer service, fixed the issue for me. The pre98 Bubba is fantastic and I am really enjoying it. The Quattro kush was a big let down. I ordered it expecting the fact that it cost 100$ more to mean it would be better flower but I find it not to be the case. Overtrimming of flower really pisses me off because that trim will be used to make concentrates, and the flower was still being sold at a premium (around 240$ before it went on sale). It makes me wonder: who overtrimmed this? Was it the grower, or did somebody decide to toss it in a tumbler along the way to double dip? I have a hard time seeing it called growers edition and then be so severely overtrimmed. Some of these nugs are completely butchered. It makes me lose confidence in the growers, and makes me question HGA: the pre98 Bubba and the Quattro kush are labeled as grown by different growers, 11 weeks mmj and cookies grower, yet they look, smell and taste identical minus the moisture level and trim job. I am not sure what is going on with HGA but the consistency does not seem to be as up to par as it used to be. I am on the fence about wanting to receive my 25$ incentive.

Super Pink - HGA - April 2022

Sensi_star_

This cut of pink was graded as a lower quad and was also a 420 sale drop. Was not disappointed at all a very nice batch that was perfectly cured, very sticky to the touch. Mix of medium to small (mostly) buds that were not too dense but definitely not loose, stunk heavily of dank gassy earthy goodness, which translated nice to the flavour as well. Clean burn, light grey ash, and was also smooth. Effects were solid, bong rips had me feeling great for while. The cerebral buzz just builds on this one, eventually fading off to a nice calming relaxing vibe. Overall, the smoke, taste, aroma, and high are worthy of mentioning, had decent moderate potency, but nothing to write home about. At $109 an oz it was a great deal for what I got. Quality: 7.4/10 Value: 9.0/10 *This is an incentivized review* LessLess

Master Bubba - HighGradeAid - Incentivized May 2022

/u/philosophicalsnake

Buds are super dank when breaking apart and still sticky to the touch. Gassy smooth toke with incredible potency! Ash is snow white. High hits you immediately with an evenly balanced stone that leaves you relaxed and ready for a nap. One of the best deals I’ve had in a long while. It reminds me of dank old school kush smoke. 10/10 Quality 10/10 Value

Deluxe Sherbet - HGA - Early May 2022

Sensi_Star_

*This is NOT an incentivized review* Was looking for a rare balanced hybrid strain that I’ve never tried before and decided upon Deluxe Sherbet. With its enticing genetics (Gelato 33 x Slurricane) thought I was in for a treat, and couldn’t pass on the opportunity. What makes this strain stand out, is the good bag appeal and nice sized nugs, also having pretty colours and ample trichome coverage. Decent trim and cure is just right. Moving on to the terps, was bit disappointed and not as expected. Subtle aroma on nose and flavour that is almost muted, but a smooth clean smoke nonetheless. Aroma is fruity, berry, cream, and funk, however, just wish the terps and flavour were a bit more bright. Potency is mild, far from a heavy hitter, a lighter sativa leaning buzz that still manages to come through, which I found best for mornings and afternoons. Overall, this batch of Deluxe Sherbet was not bad, especially considering I got this on an Intro Sale, so the price was worth it, just not as anticipated in terms of quality and potency. Quality: 7.2/10 Value: 8.0/10 Less
