This was a legitimate order. I purchased an ounce and a 7th.
Customer Service -
Super fast on the uptake, tracking number sent the same day as order. Received email that my order was complete, however, tracking reports it has been ārerouted due to processing error.ā Sigh, oh Canada Postā¦ itās all right, Iām sure itāll be here tomorrow. (It was)
Signup -
ID required. Theyāre quick and online often, no worries.
Package -
Arrived! Hooray! It is in a box, which is awesome, I love when itās in a box instead of a pack because then thereās no chance anyoneās groping my weed. Cannabis is contained in opaque metal zippies with stickers indicating the strain, indica/sativa/hybrid, and weight. No fancy extra art. I was able to remove the sticker off of one successfully to put on the mason jar I moved the ounce into.
Perks for me - I was also given a free flavoured paper which I selected as my free gift and two free sample āgramsā. These are some of the free gifts available to anyone at certain purchase points. However, I did indicate I would be photographing and reviewing to Green Ace so I was sent premium grams. One of them is a 2.2 gram monster. Magnificent.
Also purchasing enters me into a contest for a draw on December 24th.

Buds -
Enormous AAAA beasts of the nicest quality. Given Green Ace knew I was reviewing I expect they made sure of that, but thereās one in there thatās over 5 grams, peeps. Itās huge. Everything is dank, aromatic with a powerful nose, a nice cure, nothing too dry. Everything was slightly overweight by .2-.3. The ounce was packaged as two 14 gram packs, likely they donāt have larger bags available at the moment. No moisture packs, not even for the 14 grams. I recommend adding them at home or moving to a jar for longer storage. For a 1 or 3.5 that youāll burn through in no time at all, the packaging is sufficient storage.
Blue Cap Crush - AAAA 5/5
After purchasing 7 grams for my first order, I found myself reaching for this strain so often I knew I had to have a larger amount available to me. Itās an uplifting sativa with a focusing effect, it leaves me feeling happy and refreshed, with decent pain relieving effects. Itās higher CBD, about a 6/1 ratio with THC. The flavor is cooling and vegetative, reminding me more of cucumbers than pines, a refreshing spring day, a mojitoā¦ thereās no foul skunky aroma present in this strain. I can use it all the time to good effect, though Iāve noticed Iām more prone to a headache when I use a lot of it. Personally, it is very near to perfection.
Romulan - AAAA 4.5/5
Stanky fruity skunk nose, sticky and crystally all the way through, nice cure on it, great example of the strain. It goes on for ages in the vape, being a fairly fresh bud. The flavor profile is pleasantly citrus and vanilla, overall a very enjoyable strain with extremely potent evening effects. I can still be creative when Iām having a Romulan high, but itās going to be stuck to the couch. Romulan isn't new to me. This is a strain I periodically purchase because I enjoy having it around due to its high potency and enjoyable flavor. Green Aceās example is quite good. I recommend to both those who love the strain or have never tried it before, Romulan is a fantastic alien hybrid. I mean, cannabis hybrid. Yes. Vaporizer, ENGAGE!
Pink Star - AAAAā¦ and a bit. 5/5.
This might be creeping towards the mythical AAAAA territory and it is priced appropriately as the highest of the set, $245 an ounce pre-coupon.
Beautiful sage and lime green flower with pinky-purplish notes. Diesel and gassy flavor profile which gives way to a distant berry tone. Creates enormous clouds of smooth vapor which, as the initial terpy profile dies away, is sweet, earthy and cooling. Not all strains gives that ācoolingā effect, but this one does, even though the flavor itself has some slight spicy bits here and there if you really explore it. However the in mouth influence is that of a slight mint. Itās refreshing in my mouth, even while bringing that hard hitting familiar Pink Kush edge. Well balanced.
One unique thing of note with this strain was the effect of ābody tinglesā rather than a body lock, and it escalated slowly into a euphoric head high with the pain relief of a body high still charged with focus.Ā The experience has a lot going on, itās potent, and I just canāt stop sniffing it. The fragrant nose is that smell of spring my sad sad body wants right now. It has a bold floral nose which reminds me of the best sort of back yard, which is to say one full of lilacs, grass, berries, a scraggly vegetable garden and cannabis. Everything about this experience is perfect.
I acknowledge that I received a curated flower for the express purpose of photographing for this review, and it was a knockout.
Lemon Sour Diesel - 4.2/5
Powerful aroma, like sticking your nose into a bag of sour candy. Makes all of the little nose hairs curl up. Beautiful large nugget, sticky and fresh, dense light green color with a dominant sour scent of lemon lime. Iāve never vaporized a lemon named strain which tasted so much like lemon oil, the flavor is undeniable, it might as well be candy. The high is an enjoyable sativa which energizes and focuses me on my creative work, but the coarser lung feel is a detraction from an otherwise perfect experience. That saidā¦
This regularly seems to happen with lemon strains with me, and the only one Iāve encountered that didnāt make my lungs seize up was Shamrockās Lemon OG. I feel that Lemon Sour Diesel is an excellent flavourful example of the strain and would be enjoyed by fans of lemon-flavored marijuana. I gave a hit to my lemon sensitive best friend, and she noticed the sour more than the lemon and had no trouble with the lung feel so I would say your mileage might vary!
Dense and covered in orange hairs.
This is a true AAAA nugget, I canāt speak for what someone might receive as an ounce but the ounce I did purchase contained some magnificent beasts.
Rolling papers -
Iāve tried two from Green Ace so far, they were offered as freebies with a certain purchase threshold. While I donāt love joints, I am rating them as rolling paper.
Blueberry Skunk - 5/5
Loved the flavor, burnt without trouble. Pairs well with any berry/grape flavoured cannabis. I did find the flavor noticeable in the smoke and personally I liked it! Itās a gimmick, sure, but once in a while I just want to smoke something. Nice with Pink Kush, Rockstar, Purple Anything, etc. This I will keep to use for myself.
Banana - 4/5
I donāt like the banana as much. I don't really like fake banana that much in general. But it is really cute with the banana print, made with soy ink. The banana flavor note is very minimal in the smoke, youāll mostly pick it up when you lick it which is when youāll notice a very fake banana taste. It pairs well with a sweet flavor cannabis. I made my joint with GanjaWestās Alice in Wonderland. If you know someone who likes bananas and joints, I mean, this is the paper for them.
Both seem to be solid products if you like a joint and the free gift options include extra weed or the ability to decline if you don't want rolling papers.
Site critique - Not in love with how my on-site reviews are attached to my real full name. This has happened on a few sites now and okay, in my case, itās not a huge secret. But If you wanted you could easily figure out who I am by checking on the website on which Iāve hosted my pictures. I can imagine some people not reviewing for that reason. Be nice if we could set our display name for the on-site review.
