Fatso

Probably one of my favourite strains I've ordered from KS to date. Possibly tied with the gorilla breath. Actually even found some similarities in the two. This strain is named to a tee, as the nugs were indeed fatso's. Two of them made up the majority of my 14 grams. Very dense, chunky, and heavy, with a beautiful, tight bud structure. Covered from head to toe in resinous, milky trichomes. A beautiful appearance as well, with a colour pallet including light and dark greens and purples. All topped off by a decent amount of healthy pistils.
A cross of GMO Cookies and Legends OG, making for a terpene profile that is extremely different and unique. Pungent aromas that fill a room instantly after the jar is unscrewed, and even more so after cracking a bud open. The description was spot on too. A combination of garlic and fuel/gas. Stings the senses after a deep smell as it's extremely aromatic. Also some earthy aromas in there. Full bodied flavour when smoked that included strong hints of roasted garlic, followed by a heavy taste of gas on the exhale that lingers. Definitely has that gmo funk to it as it's amazingly weird but also weirdly amazing. Quite smooth as well but the thick, heavy smoke it produces can be unforgiving if taking huge hauls. Burned with a salt and pepper ash.
Powerful and potent effects that offer a little bit of everything. Starts off with a surging head buzz that almost had me feeling like I had tunnel vision and had to take off my hat. Very spacey and euphoric as well and just an overall super fun type of high even though it's indica leaning. Didn't experience it's couch locking tendencies but it definitely had a very mellow and relaxed demeanour to it's nature as well. Smoke too much however and the crash is significant. Hope to see this strain again as it was a great value all around.
Rockstar

Grabbed a quarter of this Rockstar as part of my last order, which arrived in dense, popcorn sized nuggets that were heavily caked in crystal. Very greasy and resinous looking, giving compliment to the dark pine greens and orange hairs. Not the neatest of trims with some extra sugar leaf, though I must say the cure is near perfection and does a great job showcasing it when handled and smoked.
Upon opening the bag I was met with such a nostalgic and cozy aroma that filled the vicinity up within seconds. Gassy and pungent with strong undertones of pine and kush. Translates flawlessly to the taste with a full flavoured smoke that packs a decent punch. Very forgiving and easy on the lungs despite this, allowing for big and savoury, milky rips. Burns clean too leaving behind a light ash and greasy oil ring.
The high is effective and potent, hitting almost instantly right after exhaling, specifically behind the eyes and temples. Heady and full bodied as it put me in a very relaxing couch lock with little motivation to do anything physical. My tolerance is quite high but one too many hits can result in an early night and it has. May be a little steep in price but the quality of smoke is definitely there and extremely worth it if you can get it with points or on sale.
Lemon Haze

I opted for the 2 oz bundle deal of this lemon haze this time around. A fairly nice deal, especially if you can use some points to lower the initial cost. Decent appeal on this new batch with sticky, fluffy, light green buds that are covered in visible trichomes and wispy orange hairs. Both zips filled up two mason jars, one comprised of bigs and the other with smalls & mediums. No shake at all with minimal amounts of popcorn. A bit of extra leaf but for a budget I can't be too critical.
Super consistent in it's profile. Classic lemon haze notes that I loved the first time around. Very sweet and zesty lemon aromas, followed by peppery undertones that translate accurately to taste. Clean burning with a light coloured ash which is a welcomed treat for a budget strain. Smoked very smoothly as well.
The high is definitely sativa dom. at first with heady, stimulating effects that can be quite hazy and stoney. Slowly tapers off into more of hybrid type of high as some relaxation is added into the mix. Still promotes a rather functional buzz with little to no burn out and ideal for daytime use.
