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

Pink MKU - HGA - Mid May.

/u/sanctified420

Upon first opening the bag I notice beautiful coloured buds. Greens, purples, pinks. This stuff smells delicious. It's strong too. Has that familiar spicy kush smell but what with the sweet gassy and grassy pink scents. This weed is dry and manicured properly. It busts up easily and it it's a bit on the drier side but perfect for joints. My guess is around 55% RH. A bit drier than some of the strains I get from HGA. The high of this is lovely. It gets me right wrecked. I am still going to persue more pink strains to try but this was a winner. I got it on sale for 58% off. I believe it's still on sale. Fantastic bud for the price. Burned evenly, white ash, smooth smoke. Great buds. Great price. Great high and great terps. What's not to like!

11 Weeks MMJ: Pre-98 Bubba -!- High Grade Aid -!- May 2022

/u/lostsoulz289

Danks Danks Danks. Heavy gas smell as soon as I unseal it. The kind that stinks up the whole house, and lingers. Absolutely caked with trichomes. Dense nugs, with varying sizes, mostly 1g-2g nugs but I got a fattt 5.77g nug. There are some absolutely beautiful flowers here, so many trichomes it makes it hard to take pictures of it; it makes me want to upgrade to a better camera. I wish. This is the type of flower that I enjoy looking at, playing with, taking pictures of, showing off to friends, vaping/smoking/eating, etc. Even though I had been vaping all day, when I got this and hit it in the vape, I instantly got stoned. I get very heavy gas + kush flavours in the vape, it reminds me of smoking blunts. I love the flavour and smell so much that I vaped more than was necessary. I got ridiculously stoned. Like waking up in the middle of the night cuz you passed out eating food kind of stoned. This morning I woke up stoned but really happy and ready to start my day. It is a very uplifting high. This is exactly what I was looking for and at 147$ an ounce, I will buy it over and over again. My overall score out of 100, would have to be in the 90's. This flower makes me EXTREMELY HAPPY to vape, smell, look at and think about. Whoever grew this ought to be very proud of themselves :) The trim job is well done, neither overtrimmed nor undertrimmed. The moisture level of the flower, is near perfect. Not too dry, not to moist. I am so excited and happy I got this. This flower speaks for itself, but the 25$ off next purchase + free shipping for the review really helps me out. :) thank you HGA PS: I also got 1g of Wizard Weed's 99% CBD isolate (15$) to try. I am not sure how I am going to incorporate it into my daily routine yet. Anyone have any suggestions? I was thinking perhaps mixing it with some olive oil so I could drop it under my tongue.

mandarin cookies - HGA - Early May

/u/sanctified420

Picked this up during a 420 sale. It was around $75. Opening the bag I was pleasantly surprised with the aroma that came out. Hint of oranges and that classic vanilla/doughey cookie scent. Busted up a joint. Super tight hard nugs. Not the best bag appeal upon first inspection. But once you crack a nug open it's pretty frosty in there. Buds were manicured perfectly. I'm assuming this is sitting at around 60% RH. Burns nice and slow and even. Nice white ash. This weed actually reminds me of an orange creamsicle. Very delicious terps. My girlfriend said the same thing. Oranges, and vanilla. Half a joint and I dec Honestly I wouldn't pay full price for this but at 75 bucks it was a great deal. Delicious weed at a decent price. All in all it was an enjoyable smoking experience. Smooth, great price point, delicious, and grown/manicured/cured properly.

DMC X CVL - HGA - APRIL '22 - INCENTIVIZED

/u/x_treme777

DEATH MINT COOKIES X CHOCOLATE VANILLA LOVER This strain is like a dessert to me!! Delivery was on track as expected from HGA! Well packed and confidential 10/10 Smell is pine with a touch of sweet vanilla. Not too strong but pleasant! 9/ 10 Texture was sticky. You would need a grinder as this type of texture make it difficult to grind. 9/10 The fast is sweet. You have that pine taste of the DMC. I appreciate a lot that mix with the vanilla. ( testes with a Mighty +) 9.5/10 The high is great. Really calm. It does help me getting low before going to bed. 9/10 Overall it's a pleasure to open the jar, take some puff and relax with this pick! I would buy again especially at this price!! HGA gave me an incentive of 25$ for writing this honest review of my order.
