Strains :
Velvet Elvis

Can't really find a clear cut description of this mysterious strains genetics, although TNR has it listed as a cross of Purple Space Cookies x Elvis. Decent bag appeal with bright greens and subtle purple hues complimented by vivid peach toned hairs. Slightly fluffy and a little crispy on the outside, but nothing an integra can't fix. Only downfall seems to be the size of the buds as they are mostly smalls with the odd bigger one.
The profile of this Velvet Elvis is very unique. Fragrant and earthy aromas followed by notes of fresh berries and flowers and a hint of creamyness like a cheese cake. The taste is similar too but slightly toned down, with a sweet and floral/perfumey flavour on exhale. Burns clean and smooth, producing a light coloured ash in a joint.
Definitely a sativa dominant high as it produces uplifting and social effects along with a cerebral, heady high as well. Perfect day time strain as it leaves you functional and motivated for carrying out daily tasks and whatnot. Very little burn out afterwards too.
Stevie Dawg

Another unique offering from TNR, this Stevie Dawg is listed on site as a cross of GG4 x Sour Patch Kiss. Lovely mossy green nugs that are moderately dense, sporting a neat trim with plenty of dark orange hairs and some sugar leaf. Real frosty as well with a healthy coating of trichomes. Arrived slightly on the drier side but not to a point where it crumbles.
The aroma of this strain is very influenced by the gorilla glue side, with notes of earth, pine, and coffee. Also some sour hints of diesel especially once broken up. When smoked, the diesel came out on top, with subtle undertones of sweet pine and earth. Smooth on the exhale and left behind a light ash.
Good mix of euphoric and cerebral effects making for a balanced, hybrid high. Starts off in the head and behind the eyes, making it's way to the rest of the body in a very relaxing fashion. Also said to have a small amount of Cbd as well, adding to it's mellow and slightly sedating nature.
CBD Canna-Oil , 50ml

This is Natural Remedy's in house CBD oil which is high in CBD content and low in THC content to maximize and get the most out of it's effects. 14ml of CBD and 1ml of THC. Olive oil is used instead MCT oil which I tend to prefer anyway. The oil itself is a golden yellow colour and very clear and transparent with a planty/hemp like taste. 50 ml bottle.
Such a fantastic product and anyone that has tried CBD before knows the many benefits and healing properties it offers. My parents swear by it and I also use it myself occasionally. Helps them with arthritis, aches and pains, and allows for full, uninterrupted sleeps. The little amount of THC gives the slightest of buzzes but remains very manageable and functional. Even my mom who was super skeptical of anything THC related loves it now. Fantastic and natural medicine.
Canna Oil Plus, 1gram. (75% thc, 1% cbd)

This is The Natural Remedy's version of what we mostly know as Rick Simpson Oil or Phoenix Tears. It is made in house from their own flower. Comes in a syringe commonly used for oils and distillates and is very easy to dispense. 1 gram of oil, with a content of 75% thc and 1% cbd.
The oil is rich, thick, and dark in colour just like the original. There are many ways to consume it since it's completely edible. My favourite was with a bit of peanut butter as it completely overpowers the strong cannabis flavour which can be a bit bitter and spicy. Some people may prefer to fill capsules with it too which is a great idea for finding a perfect dosing.
I've used this oil on a few occasions now and it's very potent and creeps up a couple of hours later. It can be extremely mellow and relaxing in smaller doses and more psychedelic in larger ones. All depends on an individuals tolerance too of course. This is a fantastic product overall and helps with a myriad of ailments and symptoms like pain relief, anxiety, depression and much more.
80mg THC 50mg CBD Mix & Go's , Passion Fruit & Pineapple Flavours
https://i.imgur.com/uimo21C.jpg
These are flavoured powder/crystals but with an added kick. They each have an 80mg THC content and 50mg CBD content. Passion fruit and pineapple were the only 2 flavours in stock at the time but there were a lot of options.
Perfect amount for a 500 ml water bottle and they tasted pretty good, especially the pineapple. The passion fruit was a bit too sweet for me so I added a little extra water afterwards. Not a strong flavour of cannabis but you can definitely taste it. Gave it a good shake and everything dissolved nicely.
Drinking a full dosage throughout the morning offered a very relaxing and mellow high that wasn't so overpowering or in your face. It was very functional but also gave me a noticeable pep in my step. I should also note I have a higher tolerance so the effects will vary for everyone!
