A Note to Readers: This is only my second or third review, so please bear with me as I learn what the community prefers in a solid review. I have noticed a lot of bilingual and/or Francophone folks in the community, so I thought for the sake of brevity and ease of comprehension I’d try bullet points on static topics.. Hope that’s cool! Comments and constructive criticisms most welcome, thanks guys/gals. :)
MOM Name
The Green Ace
Overall rating out of 10:
9/10
Sign Up:
The sign up here is easy, same as most places, fill out the form, provide the deets and you’re all set.
Ordering & Pricing:
Ordering is a snap, again same as most places, pick your gear, checkout, give them your hard earned dollars, wait a while, get high. Pricing is really good for the quality I find. Though this is my first order with Green Ace, it won’t be my last, I found some of these strains easily as good as the most recent batches of Forum Cut Girl Scout Cookies and Death Bubba from Coastal Wildfire, better in some cases.
Communication:
Not a ton of communication from my end on this one, but I did send a quick few questions by email and they were answered quickly and professionally.
Packaging:
Discreet: shipping box, inside was a sealed bag containing the goodies.. No stink. Not excessive either, which is nice to see… too much garbage with some MOMs.
Products / Photos:
Blue Cheese:

--Nose/Flavour: Smells like a sweet cheese, taste is similar.
--High potency, craftish: could feel the effects pretty much immediately, and the lift was long lasting.
--Trim/Cure: Really nice trim and cure. Fresh and sticky. Slightly looser to the core than some of the other strains I got, but really nice overall.
--Lift/Buzz: Hybrid stone: great head and body buzz, not too heavy or sleepy, good for day use (but maybe a bit strong for work, lol)
--Potency/Quality: GA rates this at AAA+, and IMO that is conservative, I think this is closer to a quad. I got the droopy dopey eyes like I used to get in high school off this bud, and that practically never happens anymore. It’s good strong bud with a long lasting lift.
--Vapour Quality: Smooth criminal.. Really.
--Overall: Enjoyed this buzz the best of the indica varities, not that it was the strongest, the pink tuna was probably strongest, but this one had a stone that I just loved.
--#3 in rank from this order, reorder consideration.
9/10
Purple Dream:
https://i.imgur.com/7GgtDno.jpg
--NOTE: Bud is actually quite purple, not a great photo; apologies.
--Nose/Flavour: Fairly strong sweetish/gassy aroma and flavour.
--Trim/Cure: Excellent, damn near perfect. Stellar squish and bounce, tight trim, sticky and fresh.
--Potency/Quality: Mid to High, AAA+. Fairly long lasting effects. Gorgeous bulbous buds coated in ice.
--Lift/Buzz: Hybrid lift: more heady than the Blue Cheese, slightly more sativa leaning. Prefered the indica dominance of the blue cheese in terms of hybrids, but this would be a good day weed.
--Vapour Quality: Nice and smooth, no hiccups.
--Overall: Price is good for the quality.
8/10
Pink Cookies (a.k.a Wedding Cake):
https://i.imgur.com/QzruDW3.jpg
--Crossbreed of Girl Scout Cookies and Cherrie Pie.. EXCITE!
--Nose/Flavour: Initially perfumey nose, becoming very gassy when busted open, stinks up a room!
--Trim/Cure: Freshness was damn close to CWF’s Death Bubba, not QUITE as sticky. Superb cure and sticky all over. Tight buds, great trim.
--Potency/Quality: Effects came on after only a single puff and the lift lasted a long time from an 0.1g bowl in a Dynavap. Very potent, very intoxicating. DO NOT DRIVE after consuming. :)
-Lift/Buzz: Experienced a very deep relaxed state, not exactly sleepy, but very floaty and carefree.
--Vapour Quality: Difficult to describe, almost creamy/gassy flavour; astoundingly smooth in a vaporizer.
--Overall: Top-Shelf Craft-Level Quad.
#2 in rank from this order, high chance of reorder.
9/10
Pink Tuna:
https://i.imgur.com/l66Sj5M.jpg
--Crossbreed of Pink and Tuna kushes, ultra kushy spectacularity.
--Nose/Flavour: fiery gassy/diesely stink that is almost overwhelming, like licking a fuel nozzle.
--Trim/Cure: outstanding champion-level; sticky, fresh, tight, icey.
--Potency/Quality: Do not give this to pets or newb friends, they will die/cry.
--Lift/Buzz: Effects hit immediately off one puff, and demolished my very soul after an entire 0.1g bowl in the Dynavap. Very strong, knocked me flat.
--Vapour Quality: Little bit harsh to vape, probably due to high potency.
--Overall: Top-Shelf Craft-Level Quad. Closest to a 10 I’ve tried in a long while, better (IMO) than the recent batches of Death Bubba and FCGSC from CWF.
--#1 in rank from this order, definite reorder.
9.5/10
Death Star:
https://i.imgur.com/PiYsiET.jpg
--YAY FREE STUFF! Got this gorgeous 1.3g nug as a freebie, thanks GA!
--Nose/Flavour: Very gassy, sort of subtle at first, then explodes when busted.
--Trim/Cure: superb, very dense and sticky, fresh bud. Lovely stuff.
--Potency/Quality: Mid to High, AAA+ probably. On sale and priced very competitively for the quality.
--Lift/Buzz: Good strong indica body stone, tingly head high, fairly long lasting.
--Vapour Quality: Tad harsh, but not unbearable.
--Overall: For the sale price, the DS is a steal, I am considering buying more of this. It’s a very nice quality bud, with a really relaxing mind and body stone.
8.5/10
Incentive for Customers:
Limited time 15% off all orders, free 3.5g with 1st order, referral program, free ship over $200. Really nice flowers, more high end than some places, and for the “chronnoisseur” that’s definitely an incentive.
**Update** GA dropped their ounce pricing as of today!
Incentive for Review:
Nope. Got a really nice free sample of Death Star with my order though, so I felt like a review was the least I could do.
Notes:
I chose Green Ace based on a couple reviews I read recently, and while I wasn’t expecting to be blown away, I kind of was. I tried to grab a few price points without dipping too low (high tolerance, waste of money), and I was highly impressed with the quality above AAA. It’s taken a while to learn it, but I now know that you really get what you pay for in the cannabis world, like anything I suppose, however, Green Ace has some pretty solid, high-end bud that is priced really competitively, and some mid to high-mid level bud, that is a bit of a steal in some cases. Definitely will be reordering GA buds.

The nose/high/burn is on point but there could be a little more flavour. It has really nice bag appeal nugs are fresh and somewhat sticky with a good amount of trichomes. I'd rank this one AAA+

Pink Cookies aka Wedding Cake is such a nice strain one of my recent favourites!
This one has a sweet/gassy aroma and sweet/tangy/spicy taste with undertones of gas. Dense nugs with great bud structure that burns clean. The high is relaxing/euphoric and uplifts the mind. Solid AAA quality

Lemon Sour Diesel Hybrid Sativa AAA Review - Original Review
This hybrid sativa 80/20 labeled with low-medium THC is an overall good experience, but not the most mind blowing we've seen from green ace. It's got a really nice lemon, pine, acidic? smell with a good diesel aftertone. What's really cool is we had the same bud from our first purchase provided as a sample and compared it to THIS sample, and the buds looked identical. From 2 months apart (and I assume 2 different harvests) the buds were really similar. This is a big plus as it shows care and most importantly consistency. The buds were pretty large (1.8gram) dense and lots of red hairs with an overall darker color. A bit of a stem in the middle but nothing too bad and no fan leaves at all. The smell once ground gave way to more of a diesel / lemon smell rather than the pure lemon which was nice. Vaping was really strong flavor (once again, mostly diesel) and if you let it cook at 185-190 really brought out those great flavors. Eventually tasted like the baked goods we sometimes see after it's spent. Burning it was probably the most disappointing .. a bit harsh on the throat so I couldn't get thick smoke... it also burned to a light grey to speckles of white. The effects felt in about a minute, peaked in 5-10 and was overall very visual, body tingling, behind-the-eyes, no couch lock and no anxiety which was a big plus in my books with some munchies at the end. I'd say pretty happy experience in the grand scheme of things. Unfortunately because it was harsh to blaze and the price they're asking I would give it a 3.5/5, but the fact that this bud was consistent between 2 months I would say bump it up to 4/5 (and would rate it closer to an AAA than an AAA+). Plus with moms these days you keep an eye out and can probably find a sale/deal eventually. I'd recommend getting it in a sampler pack of 3.5-7g rather than a full ounce just in case you aren't a fan of the strong lemon/acidic/diesel flavor I can see not everyone would like it

Sign Up:

Ordering was easy. I ordered the one ounce sampler. I got a q of Pineapple Express, a q of Blue Cap Crush, and a half O of Pink Bubba. There is always a coupon, or a sale going on, the prices are good for the quality. Got my tracking number a couple of days later. Great customer service

Pineapple Express 9/10
http://i.imgur.com/U0s4PIf.jpg
The smell is sweet, fruity, definite pineapple! A delicious smoke with an energetic long lasting sativa high. I generally like heavy hitting Indicas, being a heavy user, but I really, really enjoyed this strain. Perfect for morning use. Burns nice and white, slightly harsh (but I find all pineapple strains harsh) nothing major though. I got a quarter, and the whole thing was three big sweet smelling frosted nuggets! A definite re-buy for me (I actually have more on the way) AAAA
Pink Bubba 9/10
http://i.imgur.com/qkuSBHH.jpg
The smell is sweet, earthy, floral, pine like. Not very pungent, but extremely nice. Very sticky, my grinder has problems with it. It is a very nice high, makes me very sleepy, relaxed, definite couch lock. Night time use for sure, can get some good sleep. The smoke is slightly spicy, but nothin major. Burns nice and white. I really enjoyed this one, really good price and will order again. Has quickly become one of my go to strains in my stash, I’m glad I doubled up on this one and got a half ounce. AAAA-
Blue Cap Crush 7/10
http://i.imgur.com/TIZGs2x.jpg
It smells sweet, definite berry, a bit of pine. And I also smelled a bit of fuel/diesel. I found the smoke a bit harsh, and the taste wasn’t for me. The buds are nicely caked, with a nice trim job. The ash was salt and pepper though. The fuel came through with a bit of berry, which I wasn’t a big fan off. The sativa high was good though (kinda confusing), but my personal taste could not get past the flavour. I have to talk myself in to taking more than a couple of bong hits. Will try to vape next. Not a reorder for me , AA+
Death Star (free two gram sample) 8/10
http://i.imgur.com/k0SkKin.jpg
Very skunky, earthy, sweet, and pungent! The trim job is not the best, but it’s caked in crystals. It burns a bit dark, but I didn’t bother putting it in a jar with a boveda. The smell is strong, little harsh when smoked, but I really, really enjoyed the high. This was actually a very nice surprise considering. Might think of buying next time AAA-
Incentive for Customers:
Plenty of sales on selected ounces every week, always a coupon flying around. Free shipping after $150
Incentive for Review:
None, enjoyed the weed, good customer service
