Arriving on the dry side as large nugs with excess trim and a nearly-mature seed, this **Do-Si-Dos** has a sweetly-pungent aroma of earthy, skunky fruit. This potent indica-leaning hybrid leads with a distinct flavour of pungent earth and sweet citrus before settling into a generic earthiness for mo...st of the enjoyable experience. Though differing widely in appearance from prior batches of this strain, this capable Do-Si-Dos offers quick-hitting cerebral effects followed by physical relaxation and sedation in higher doses, with dry eyes as a possible adverse effect.

The attractive cross of *Purple Punch* x *Mendo Breath F2*, this **Purple Drank Breath #3** grown by the Sacred Garden Collective boasts bright-orange pistils that provide a striking contrast atop frosty lime-green buds. Arriving as supple, dense, medium nugs with some protective trim, this indica-d...ominant hybrid has a grapey ‘Breath‘ aroma that is earthy, sweet and fruity. After initial woody, dank notes, this Purple Drank Breath #3 eases into sweet, earthy/herbal flavours before concluding with an enjoyable berry sweetness at higher temperatures. Offering immediate cerebral effects that mellow into long-lasting physical relaxation and couch-lock, with dry mouth and dry eyes as possible adverse effects, this Purple Drank Breath #3 was impressively potent.

A popular indica sought out for its reliable potency and ideal sleep-inducing properties, this **Death Bubba** (*Death Star* x *Bubba Kush*) arrived as stunning, sticky, oversized nugs with impressive coverage and some protective trim. Its sour, pleasantly musky aroma as raw flower gives way to eart...hy, diesel flavours with hints of slightly sweet citrus, maintaining its flavour impressively throughout the pungent experience. Offering a slight cerebral buzz followed by relaxing physical effects with couch lock and some (delayed) sedation, this Death Bubba was of above-average potency, effectively sedative in higher doses, and well-suited for evenings.

And with this review, we are humbled that Speed Greens has become one of our approved charitable sponsors. We specifically requested potent recommendations for our second experience with them, and they met the challenge.

We were gifted 7g + also decided to purchase 7g for gifting purposes since SG was excited about this.

Not gonna photograph this as it’s an AA 3.5g first order gift, but was very curious to try it

Appearance is the weak point, as it came as scruffy popcorn buds without much smell. Some earthy aromas released when ground. Taste disappears halfway through the experience but was acceptable/fi...ne at lower temps, lasting quite a while in our vapes.

Potency was the strong suit for something in this range and surprisingly, flavour-wise, I didn’t dislike this as much as I expected to. Hits with lightly-sedative, ’couch-lock’ effects with some heaviness in the eyes

Solid value in terms of potency and taste, earthy Pink taste - definitely more potent than I expected.. About half was closer to popcorn than smalls though

Arriving on the dry side as attractive, dense, well-covered medium colas and smaller cones with minimal signs of handling, this **Cactus Breath** (*Cactus* x *Mendo Breath*) has a sweet, uniquely-zesty/fruity nose to match its distinctive cactus-like appearance. After initial woody, herbal notes, th...is exotic indica-leaning hybrid eases into a pungent, earthy/hashy ‘*Breath*‘ profile (that may not be for everyone). Offering hazy cerebral euphoria and relaxing (sometimes tingly) physical effects, with dry eyes as a possible adverse effect, this Cactus Breath was of above-average potency.

Oct ’18 batch was more potent and slightly heavier/muskier/spicier in its taste, but arrived quite dry and as lots of smaller, caked buds. This new batch is slightly less potent but better all-around imo.. This May ’19 CB is much terpier after jarring and has a more enjoyable hashy profile, though I imagine that more time could’ve improved this cultivar further.

We were gifted 7g + also decided to purchase 7g as I knew I would want a few friends to try this.. Ended up gifting some to a May contestant with great IG + Weed Tube content as well, so we’ll also have a (hopefully fun) collaborative Part 2 to this Cactus Breath review at the site shortly =)

Arriving as a mix of medium (purple) and large (green) nugs with some protective trim, this sticky **Pink Kush** boasts a typically-Pink ‘stink’ in its earthy, light-vanilla aroma. After initial woody, slightly-herbal notes, this popular indica eases into its distinctive blend of pungent, floral... earthiness for most of the enjoyable experience before concluding with a generic ‘roasted’ flavour. Offering effective mental and physical relaxation with mood boost, improved appetite and some (delayed) sedation, this capable (though not classic) Pink Kush is well-suited for evenings.

Good but not classic batch of one of our fave indicas, solid + above-average potency but not particularly heavy for PK

The enjoyable and mysterious cross of *Purple Punch* x *Clementine*, **Mimosa** is an aromatic treat sure to remind many of the delicious brunch beverage of the same name. Generally regarded as one of the nicer-smelling strains available, this Mimosa grown by the Uptown Gardener arrived as well-cove...red medium nugs with some protective trim and the fantastic aroma of sweetly-pungent citric fruit. After intoxicating early notes of sour citrus, this Mimosa maintains its pleasing pungency before eventually concluding with a ‘roasted’ earthiness. Ideal for daytime use, this sativa offers uplifting, energizing cerebral effects of moderate potency, with dry eyes, increased anxiety, and mild (eventual) burnout as possible adverse effects.

We’ve come across two premature seeds in our bag so far, one of my faves in terms of aroma. Found this less sweet/creamy than the Gastown Mimosa, but I dig the sour citrus notes and pungency of this Mimosa almost as muchSee More

The delectable cross of *Cherry Pie* x *Black Lime Reserve*, this **Cherry Limeade** has a remarkable aroma of sweetly-pungent, skunky fruit, with additional notes of earth and skunk being released when ground. Arriving on the dry side as well-covered medium nugs with attractive colouration, this Ch...erry Limeade has sweet, tangy, fruity flavours to go with its earthy pungency at higher temperatures. Offering a mild cerebral stone followed by long-lasting physical relaxation and some (delayed) sedation, with dry eyes as a possible adverse effect, this moderate indica-leaning hybrid can inspire ‘couch lock’ in higher doses and is ideal for evening use.

Really tasty with unique fruity/skunky flavours, very nice smell but wish there was more humidity + aroma. Not super potent, but a bit of a creeper

An evolution of the popular *GSC* (formerly known as *Girl Scout Cookies*), **Platinum GSC** is the celebrated offspring of *OG Kush* x *Durban Poison* x a 3rd unknown strain. This Platinum GSC arrived slightly-dry as attractive large nugs with some protective trim and a pleasing, pungent aroma of e...arthy, fruity sweetness. Though not a knockout in terms of taste, this smooth, balanced hybrid offers sweet, earthy flavours with hints of berry and pepper sprinkled throughout the enjoyable experience. Similar to the original, this potent Platinum GSC yielded immediate euphoria followed by mental and physical relaxation (that can become sedative in higher doses).

Well done SG, just cracks our top 10 in the database. Close to 10/10 on visual appeal but arrived slightly-dry. Partner liked it more than I did in terms of taste (but I’ve had tastier GSC or Cookies-crosses recently)
