Weed Cargo - Welcome Kit - End of December 2019
** Weed Cargo **
Note: I’ve been kindly reached through Reddit by a customer service representative to review some of their strains. They sent me a free welcome kit with 3g of different flowers included.
Communication: They are available through Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Reddit and their customer support mail. They even have a discord chat server on which is great to see other customer products or ask questions.
Customer service: Didn’t had to deal with their CS so N/A
Processing time: N/A, that was a surprise drop in my flex address.
Packaging/Shipping: Products where in a standard thick cardboard box and were in a vac seal. No smell up to opening the smell proof bag. One thing to notice, and it has been already said but the samples were really squished. Up to the point of looking like pancakes and even the rolling paper pack was banana bent. I think it’s important to keep the products smell proof to secure the delivery process but appropriate handling from the warehouse to the destination is the key to deliver the best quality and care to the customers. I’m pretty sure the packaging team will pay special attention going forward.

Received a sample that was a tad dry and maybe aged a bit. Some green color variations that are a bit yellowish/brownish. Very low ratio of stigmas and trichomes coverage.
Pine and chives smell. At some point, this batch was probably a stinker but unless you throw it in a grinder, there is a lack of smell.
On the flavor side, again the piney and woody aroma take the lead followed by some weird/intriguing but winsome onion and lemongrass end kick. Surprising enough from a dry and odor less nug but it was in a spliff so maybe the combustion type abetted to deliver a proper taste. We’ll take it! Pale grey ash from a joint.
Low to medium Indica buzz. Could be a good day smoke or for a smooth wake and bake. Could be recommended as a budget strain or for low tolerance users. Not a bad smoke as Romulan is a good parentage usually but it is what it is.

Perfect moisture and a good stickiness on those multiple green tones that are whitened from the pre-squished trichomes coverage. Pretty good density and bouncing adding quality value along with a good cure. We can feel something here.
A sweet cookies and fruit smell comes out of the bag as soon as you open it and is telling you how interesting the incoming sesh will be. There’s some pineous hints tickling the nose when you grind it or manually break it leaving your fingers sticky.
Dankness, floral earthiness and some nuts tones describe the most the taste you get from a bowl or using a vaporizer. You can taste too a slightly creamy and fruity flavor in the exhale. Ash are pale grey almost white from a bowl.
When it’s about vaporizing or trying alternative ways of smoking weed, I like it to produce a lot of cloudy smoke that is smooth on the throat and lungs and that strain hits both aspects easily. Despite being mostly an Indica from a genetic standpoint, I felt it to be more an energizing strain that hyped me to be active and creative. I tried the sample during the weekend daytime so maybe it’s the cause. A medium to strong buzz.

Super dense and sticky nugs in that sample for one of my favorite strain. Again, numerous shades of green spotted by little stigmas here and there. The buds are looking and feeling dry when touching them however, when you break open them you feel a good moisture so it’s a matter of heavy density letting only the surface dry.
Woody and dank smell with a slender hint of lavender. There is a bit of a skunky scent when you grind it expressing clearly his Kush derivation.
Pungent flavors of nuts, mushrooms and a lot of dankness. True to it’s name, you get that loved/hatred rotting fish after taste on the exhale completing this unique terpene profile.
Buzz is definitively a heavy body relaxing one with an intense sedative effect that should stick you in your couch. It’s a very good pre sleep smoke that can soften you in seconds. An strong to very strong effect.
Global experience: Overall, they seem to carry some quality buds along with budget ones that should fit everybody’s needs. They seem a bit pricy but with work on the customer service and handling/packaging they could surf on a higher level accordingly to the paid price. I would honestly be curious to see what I received but in a vanilla state.
Incentive: Other than receiving the samples for an honest review, no.
