AK47 from The Green Ace AK47 Final Pic 1 small.jpg Visual: The colour on this AK47 was a light green. It had lots of tight compact crystal and tons of wispy orange hairs all over which looked pretty cool. It had a nice structure and it was very dense. Nose: The nose was super cheesy! It was also sweet and sour with some citrus and some herbal scents. Cut/Roll/Grind: It ground up very easy. It got stuck in the grinder a bit and it was a bit sticky when I was cutting it up. Taste: The taste was also very cheesy! I usually don’t get the cheese in the taste as much as the nose. It was very pungent and it also had a bit of the spicy sweet and sour. Burn: Very was pretty good. The ash was a bit salt and peppery, but it didn’t want to go out. Potency/Effects: This AK47 was very punchy for me and it had a great potency level. It was quite uplifting and energetic with a good head buzz and a very stoney effect. Good for a daytime smoke. Overall score – 9.3/10 AK47 Final Pic 2 small.jpg You can watch the video review: On Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ta9gCOZJBb8&t=274s Or on Instagram: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ta9gCOZJBb8&t=274s

Full album - http://imgur.com/a/rfpWYXS This Black Cookies from seeds by Jordan of the Islands is a potent cross between GSC x Blackberry Kush. Stellar bag appeal with medium sized, conical shaped buds that display shades of light greens complimented by subtle purple streaks and thin orange hairs. It has a very frosty appearance from the sheer amount of trichomes that cover each nook and cranny. Perfectly cured and trimmed, with a sticky texture and dense bud structure baring virtually no leaf. If anyone's ever had HGA's Death Mint Cookies, this stuff really reminded me of it which is amazing because it's an extremely terpy strain. Sweet and skunky aromas followed by a kushy, berry back-end. It translated to taste seamlessly and delivers the same mouthwatering flavours. You know something is terpy when it even comes through in a bong and even more so in a joint, burning slow and oily and producing a clean white ash. The high is a very trippy, in your head type, feeling a strong cerebral rush that can leave you focused yet spaced out. It's relaxing indica qualities come into play shortly after, providing a euphoric haze that keeps you feeling happy and elevated. Perfect for a good gaming or show binging session. My first time having this strain and it's definitely one for the books.

**apologies for the brick iPhone se quality** Wagyu (left) is an amazing smoke. Got it at 25% off so 7g @$50 and it’s well worth the price. Has a pink kush type smell with a dough undertone and the nose reflects in the smoke. Dry sample so it’s in a jar and will likely freshen up a bit but the dryness made for a fast burning joint - although it had a white ash until the last few tokes. Very sticky and dense buds with purple hues. Heavy indica that put me straight to bed! Q:9 V:9 Sunset Mac has a very unique smell and massive 3-4g buds, very similar to Mac1 but with citrus undertones. Taste is the same but not as strong as the smell. Perfect cure and ghost white ash. High is mild and leans more sativa for me - I was able to watch the presidential debates without being distracted which says a lot for someone like me who’s always distracted lol. Overall it’s a great daytime flower with attributes that assist in focus for me. Q:8.5 V:8

Good to go , how.much can I actually say about shatter . Well it was glass , got me ripped . Tastes awesome this strain . Probably going to throw one in the 10 pack for sure . Really likes the taste . It was fresh , citrus, with a sweet side to it . I domt now If that makes sense but Yes I d buy this again .

I missed out the last time this was on offer, so when it popped back up I grabbed this and the Sophie’s Breath. Well, it’s not as visually appealing as other strains Skookum offers - Ultra Pink is a heavy hitter for sure. Buds remind me of back in the days weed where you’d buy a bag from someone and get home and be disappointed in the look of it and then you’d smoke one and be absolutely floored. The trim on this stuff is unimpressive and the visual suffers for it. However, taste/smell and high are absolute aces. Super sticky, breaks up easily and rolls into a very nice joint. Taste is what you’d expect from a Pink Kush cross. Old school Kush and an earthy flavour. Burns white and slow. The high is a classic heavy indica experience. Couch lock, lazy and hungry haha. This is a great example of a night time strain. This is the stuff I smoke an hour or so before bed if I want to get a decent sleep without the usual night terrors and restless nights I usually struggle with. A real knockout. Quality: 9 Value: 9

The pink really came through on this one, the only reason I'd know there was bubba in it was how it pressed . Clear and sappy . Potent as pink kush usually , good tasting , i liked it , to many other strains to try again anytime soon .....

When I saw that Skookum had some Sophie’s Breath on offer I ended up breaking my promise to stop spending money on weed and copped a couple/few tins of a couple/few strains including this. My first Sophie’s Breath experience was from Rainzforest a year or so ago and it was really nice so I was excited to see what Skookum could do with it. Buds are beautiful, hues of purple, green and orange, coated in trichomes and sticky. A really nice cure as well, sticky to the touch but breaks off the stem. Nose is sweet and has some very strong berry notes. Taste translates with an earthy and blueberry exhale. The ash burned salt and pepper for me with a couple of joints. That’s a first from Skookum for me. Was still a smooth smoke, just an observation. High is a nice hybrid, I feel like I can get shit done but if I were to sit down and start gaming - I’d be just as happy. You really can get lost in your thoughts with this high. Munchies is meh, pretty easy to forget that you haven’t eaten in a bit with this stuff when you’re focused on a task. Overall, this is a great example of a hybrid that I would gladly partake in as a daily driver. Astro Boy still tops the scales for me as far as a functional smoke but this is a close second. Quality: 9 Value: 8.5

This i really liked . Don't know what I'd call the nose on this one 'good weed' for sure , good looking bud too. Again nice clean burn ,no black ash, didn't go out . Works for me

Smelled like grape candy , ,tasted like candy , my first time getting PSC.... enjoyed it , burned clean good buzz what else do I want.

Probably the third or fourth time I’ve ordered this strain but the first time I decided to get some smalls. As always it definitely hits really hard when smoking. Great for a nighttime smoke or just chilling out. Also is extremely dank, Easily fills up an entire room with that gorgeous smell. I expected the buds to be a little bit bigger but for the price, I really can’t complain. Quality - 9, Value - 9 (with the sale). Really love the option for faster ship through Purolator and the numerous discount incentives.

Pink Rozay (Queen Of Quads) from The Green Ace Visual: This Pink Rozay was a bit squished but it was still very nice. Buds are going to get squished a bit during shipping sometimes, no worries. It was light green with light coloured hairs hairs that were barely visible because they were similar in colour to the bud. There was lots of fuzzy crystal all over and the buds were pretty dense but still squishy. Nose: The nose was earthy and a tiny bit of sweetness at first. When I opened it up it had a pungent smell of citrus and a sweet herbal smell. Cut/Roll/Grind: It ground up a bit harder because of the stickiness and I had to pick out the ground up stuff from the grinder. Taste: The taste was mainly earthy with a bit of a woody herbal and a bit of a floral taste as well. Burn: Very nice burn to it. It had a steady burn. Potency/Effects: This one had a good punch to it and the potency built up well into a good potency level for me. The effects were nice and buzzy all over. It wasn’t too heavy and it wasn’t too light, Right in the middle with a good all around buzz from it. Overall score – 9.3/10 You can watch the video review: On Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMrMV3lstkE Or on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/CFskLX7DG5P/

9lb Hammer (Queen Of Quads) from The Green Ace Visual: Very nice visuals on this one! The structure was pretty cool, it had lots of foxtails and lots of sparkly sugary crystal all over. The buds were a medium/dark green with light orange hairs all over. The buds were pretty squishy but they still had a denseness to them. Nose: The nose was earthy and sweet with some grape fruitiness and tiny bit of citrus. Cut/Roll/Grind: It was very easy to bust up and it made nice work of it. It was also easy to cut up but it squished it a bit. I would say that it came out better from busting it up. Taste: The taste was very pungent! It filled my mouth up with that sweet earthiness and the grape fruitiness. There was a hint of a spicy and skunky woodiness as well. Burn: Very nice burn to it. Potency/Effects: Wow! This one was Very nice visually and very potent! Hammer is right! It can knock you out! I can start to roll smaller joints with this one because of the potency level. It got me all buzzed out all over! It was a great heavy Indica that eventually had me plastered to the couch. Great for night time. Overall score – 9.6/10 You can watch the video review: On Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqgipQKUINo Or on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/CFqmw_bDkPJ/

Banana Kush from The Green Ace Visual: The colour was a light army green, there was quite a bit of rusty hairs in patches, more so near the tips. It was a tiny bit leafy but there was lots of nice crystal. It was very dense. Nose: The nose was mainly earthy with a bit of sweetness. It had a bit of that banana peel nose and a bit of woodiness. Cut/Roll/Grind: It was very easy to bust up. It pulled it apart in the grinder rather than grinding it up into little bits. It was also easy to cut. Taste: It was mainly that sweet earthiness with a tiny bit of that banana peel flavour. Burn: It burnt great. It was nice and slow and steady and the ash was very light. Potency/Effects: It was a bit punchy to start off with and the potency built up at a medium pace. The effects started in my head and then worked it’s way down my body. I wasn’t ripped but I was very relaxed and it made me a bit sleepy. This would be good for late night.

Q: 7 V: 7.5 [More Pictures](https://imgur.com/a/y8M1l8g) Medium sized bud was a deeper green with bright orange pistil highlights and a good covering of trichomes. Nose is doughy, earthy with slight tropical / unripe banana accents. The tight, dense buds still held a good level of humidity while not overly sticky. Smokability was good with a medium body and slightly harsh on exhale, it burned slow and even and left a slightly gray salt and pepper ash. Flavor fell a little flat with some woody / earthness and a moderate tropical / banana aftertaste. Potency was decent with a build up that never quite paid off; good body effects while the building cerebral buzz started to rise but turned more mellow and relaxing.

Edit with review: Very stoned at the moment lol. When I first opened the bag I was hit with one of the strongest fruity, sweet, tropical smells ever lol. This stuff is very strong and very smooth. Had a few tokes out of my pipe so taste wasn't super strong, but I got a bit of a sweet and fruity taste. Will have to try a joint later to get more of the flavour. Most of the buds are a little on the smaller side but super dense and tight with a good trim. I think I have to up my rating to a Q: 9.5/10 and V: 9/10. A little on the pricey side at $70/7g or $260/oz, but definitely worth it in my opinion. ~~About try this, will update with review in a bit. Based on looks and smell ill give it a 9/10 quality and 8/10 value. Smells insanely fruity, buds are a bit smaller but crazy dense and with a perfect trim.~~

Strain: Rockstar MOM NAME: LOWPRICEBUD OVERALL RATING : 8/10 COMMUNICATION/SERVICE: I'm used to Rockstar, always a solid hit for me. some Discord members posted real pics and opinions and it was enough for me to pull the trigger on this at just $132!! SHIPPING/PACKAGING: Ordered 1oz during the weekend, got it the following week! The Strain: Buds are a nice n dense, from very small to pretty big! trimmed ok. The nose is very present, sweet earthy and some pine. Smokes clean, and very tasty, much more flavors than aromas. I loved it and it has been a while since I got a tasty Rockstar like this. Hit quick and hard, head high, and I didn't get couch locked, I love Rockstar and this is better than I've had all year

First let me start by saying that HGA usually carries really good everything... I think they really missed a lot on this one. This was graded as AAAA- and I think a AAA- rating is more appropriate or even AA based off of the irritation on inhale. First we will start with how it looks.. as you can see from the pictures the smalls definitely left something to be desired. My last review I praised them on the size of the red congo smalls.. these were popcorn/popcorn seeds at best. A lot of the smaller cleft/larf/whatever you wanna call the small leafy, scraggly buds had little stems shooting off of them which I had to pick through and throw out. a lot of the nugs were so small it probably took me 20-30 minutes to pick through everything I wanted to keep to smoke (wish I had timed this) and I had 2.1g of shake/stem when all was said. Some smaller stuff I would normally consider shake I had to let pass the test in fear of losing 2-3 grams of tiny nugs. Most gelato I've seen has had a good variance in colour from green to purple but these small nugs all look pretty uniform, but when you get nugs this small I don't know if they grow to develop colour... The smell upon arrival was kind of a light kush... maybe sweetened kush kinda smell.. fairly muted.. nothing really exciting to write home about.. I was more excited about the skunk bomb sample in the bag (which might be skunk bubba since they don't have Bomb listed?). I expected more sweetend creamy with some gas on the backend and fruit undertones by everyones descriptions. The smoke... I don't know if it was the fact that these smalls were SOOOO Small, or it wasn't flushed/dried/cured proper... but the inhale on this itches the throat... It's harsh on the inhale.. has a small lung pull, nothing heavy by any means... The scratchy throat on the inhale and slight irritance afterwards is all that comes to mind though. Didn't pay attention to colour of ash for you crazy ash heads, usually just try to feel it and enjoy. Flavor was very similar to the taste... kind of a light kush... the sweetness was almost lost and it was more of a light kush with earthy undertones. The buzz was mild for an AAAA- from HGA and honestly slightly ruined by the irritated throat. I'm a concentrate smoker and I'd say I was moderately buzzed, I believe I took a dab when I got back in from the joint. It's tough for me to evaluate the high.. I feel like the harshness on the inhale is really killing my vibes. But probably probably a mild chilled out kind of social vibe that I got off it. Q: 5.6/10 - I've had so much better from HGA.. I've never had anything from them be so harsh on the throat... normally even something really heavy hitting like DMC will be smooth going down and then on the exhale you feel it on the lungs... I'm not even sure if this is real Gelato.. I know ever Pheno is different but where are the fruity undertones? And where is the colouring??? ​ V: 5/10 - These smalls were $180 an ounce.. If these were priced around the $100-$120 mark I'd say it'd be a more appropriate value. =/ One of / If not the most disappointing purchase from HGA... I'm not sure if these smalls are so small that's what's causing the irritation or if it wasn't dried/cured/flushed proper... or If I'm just smoking some mediocre strain marked as Gelato... but why the throat irritant! Would love some feedback from anyone who got regular sized.

I saw HGAs RC smalls up for 150 and grabbed an oz and man are these SMALLS, and leafy. Beyond that this is still VERY much the Red Congo I know and love from them. The smell, taste and effects are not affected by the small size imo. Classic sativa strain that really needs no additional review based on the abundance of reviews for this stuff here. Im really happy with the purchase. Incentive for review is $25 off next order and free shipping. I also have a referral code for 25 bucks off your first order if anyone is interested in giving HGA a try. Cheers!

So I took a two month hiatus from Budmail, kinda like what the Aussies would call a bit of a “walk about”, after having ordered almost exclusively from them for a year. I went forth and sought, for the most part, value alternatives, but I did try one similar to BM and rekindled a relationship with a previous favourite. It was a gratifying trip where I interacted with some great redditors, had some fun communications with a few moms, and arrived at a moment of clarity. There are value deals out there. I had an O all in for $104! The issue is finding consistency. In each scenario when I ordered a mix and match or simply multiple strains from the lower tiers there was always a gem in the rough, something smokable, and inevitably something lack luster. So it averages out to smokable, and that leads to higher consumption: bigger dubes and increased frequency. The end of my journey is a return to the familiar with no further great concern that I’m missing out. My great granny always said, “you get what you pay for”. For me, in the long run, I’m buying into paying for the top drawer, and trying to roll back on frequency in favour of quality experiences. I will likely still be occasionally tempted by a value offer, but now wonder if the next journey is exploring the best strains each of the upper tier growers offer. Onto the strain at hand: CS tipped me off that something good was up with this and I owe a shout out. Every now and then you get something really special; this was one of those times. Nicely trimmed, with a few sugar leaves for show. Nice thumb sized buds, only took three of them to make the quarter (I have big hands). Heavy with resin I had to physically separate the buds when I removed them from the bag. The nose is wonderful. It entices with overtones of earth, musk, cedar, a honey like sweetness and a hint of fuel. A dube produces a very nice resin ring and a smooth burn. My first impression was “rich”. HPK is very full flavoured. Effects were outstanding: Insta-permagrin, a tad of giddiness, and definitely euphoric out of the gate. Then, like getting under a warm blanket, a deep sense of calm and relaxation wash over the body. Great legs too. Overall, I rate this as exceptional, and I got what I paid for. Transparency disclosure: I receive points for reviews.
