First off this was a sample pack offered to me to do reviews. I told them I would do it, but reviews would be honest. They asked I do so based off of the price. Fair enough. Was shipped out the next day.
I liked the way it came first of all. Discreet little brown box. I was surprised by... the weight as it was a sample box and opened it up to find 2 jars, a lighter and a pack of papers. They stamped the inside of the box with their company name and each jar had cannagrassroots stamped on the top, with a sticker on the front indicating the strain name/grade/type (Indica in this case)/ as well as size. And of course a warning to keep out of reach of children lol. (I should've taken a picture of the jar..) Packaging was perfect in my opinon. Simple, basic, yet kept your goods safe in the jars.
Onto the product. The pink kush had that classic pink kush smell to it.. as soon as you opened the jar it hit you in the face. the 2g nug came as one big beefy bud in the jar. The buds are dark and dank loooking, not TOO frosty with classic orange looking hairs sticking out everywhere. Trim was rather nice. This stuff definitely has some stick to it. I had to go iso my fingers after busting it up for my joint. Nice and fresh, but dry and sticky.
Onto the smoke. Not the smoothest on the inhale, but not many of the best weeds I've smoked have been. Ash burned salt and pepper. The exhale had a nice pull on the lungs, that to me implies potency. Half way through the joint I had a light sweat going around my browline.
The high is definitely more indica dominant but it doesn't knock me down... Which is nice, it's also not too heady.. It's my idea of a perfectly balanced weed even though it leans more indica. I feel baked, but I feel like I still wanna continue doing everything I had planned... Sometimes some indicas will make the rest of the day a write off.
Overall I'd say this is a really good pink kush, albeit I haven't ordered a straight PK since chronfathers personal crop back in mayish of last year? This stuff definitely had more of a kick to it, but is also quite a bit pricier. I'd say their pricing is on point with the market, although I would like to see someone in the market come in and decide to do things a little cheaper. This was a great high though and price is comparable to the market for true quads at $220 an oz. I'm not sure if they offer any first time buyer incentives or any other incentives to buy from them.
Q: 8.8 / 10 - A good quality Pink kush, guaranteed to do the trick for even a heavy consumer. If Pink kush is your thing.. I suggest giving it a try!
Big beefy bowling ball baddies. That's what these nugs are. well truthfully maybe ping pong or golf ball sized, but most nugs came looking like this.. med---> large ping pong balls. Kinda curious to see what it looks like on the plant that everything comes out so round...
Anyways.. t...his one was a little confusing... on the site it says AAA+ $120 an ounce, but then it lists it as $140 as the sale price you pay, but then you put it in your cart and it's $120, and then it shows up at your door and the bag says AAAA-... So who knows where HGA Grades this... It is def either one of the two though.. I'm leaning more AAAA-
Good nose to this one, not the strongest, but still strong. Get earthy, musky, swampy.. just dirty in a good way. If you back off a bit you kinda get a coffee like vibe coming off of it, but it's no where near as pronounced as the last batch of Greasy monkey I had from HGA... Burns slowly.. really greasy in a paper, smooth inhale.. pretty smooth exhale as well with a slight pull. I feel like this stuff is maybe a little fresh and needs a slightly longer cure, the buds feel a little fresh.. wish it was stickyness but I think it's just how fresh it is.. decent buzz off of this, not a super heavy hitter.. but that's why it's graded lower!
Alright, grabbed 2 oz's of each for a mixed QP of this and the mac x pie face. I think this hits equally as hard and both are great indicas, with the mac x pie face maybe being a little bit heavier.
This one came in mostly medium and some smaller sized nugs, a great doughy / sweet pl...ain sugar like smell to it. Not my hugest flavor profile.. I prefer a more gassy leaning Pheno of ICC, but none the less this stuff hits hard and gets the job done. Flavor while smoking is very similar to the smell, with less dough maybe and more of the sweetness coming through. It burns clean on the inhale.. decent lung pull on exhale. Great indica buzz, slightly less heavy and couch locking than the mac x pie face, but still a great long lasting effect off both.
Alright.. First off I know I'm late... BUT NFcanna is reposting another batch of this stuff and I figured it's pretty nice so I better review it for the new drop that's coming.. This stuff stanks... Like at first I get that dank kinda meaty spicy smell off it, but then a hint of sweetnes...s follows it as well... It's really tough for me to describe the taste and smell over all... I think they describe it as Bubblegum tasting, but I wouldn't say bubblegum per say.. it's more dank then sweet to me... almost a sweet skunky smell I dunno...
The nugs are dried well.. crisp, but not over dried and crumbly. the smoke was really nice and smooth, good lung pull on the exhale. The high was pretty long lived and definitely more of that heavy ”indica” feel.
Overall very pleased.. I haven't been a huge fan of Mac short of NFC's FSE version of it, but this cross with pie face was definitely a hit for me, and priced well.
This gelato came in a timely fashion despite it being christmas time.. Purolator came through with that next day delivery on the day before Christmas.
This might be the biggest bud I've ever gotten from HGA I figured it would be worth showing off on it's own, nugs in the bag were... med to large. I had this in the smalls before and found the smoke to be very irritating but others I knew that got the reg never had the same issue. I tried again because everyone else liked it so much and I figured it must've been the smalls from before. I was 100% right because this shit is smooth, delicious and potent. Burned nice and clean, smooth inhale with a smooth exhale. The taste is like a sweet cream with a hint of berries or fruit mixed in with it. Not saying it's the most in your face terps but definitely an enjoyable smoke and flavor. Potency was great on it, had me feeling lifted and stoned for a good hour or so.
Q: 8.8 - Everything about the weed is nice, terps could be a bit stronger for sure and potency prob a little too... but a solid AAAA bud for sure.
V: 9.4 - Got this 40% off with review and free shipping... such a good deal.
This one was a bit of a let down for me.. I'm glad I got it at 50% off because it has no hints of tangerine and a slight hint of citrus on smoke, a little bit more on the nose.. mainly i'm getting grass though. I don't think it dried fully.. buds squish but don't bounce back... when ...you break a bud you don't get that crack or snap that something with lumber this size should. Nugs are mostly ping pong ball sized and very circular almost. The high on this stuff wasn't anything to write home about either. $260 an oz reg price... I'd put this stuff around the $160 range at best personally.
Q: 6.1/10 - So many things could be better about this bud imo
V: 6.2/10 - I think I paid $130 + used review coupon so I mean it's not the worst buy.. but I've gotten so much better from HGA on sale for this price too....
This stuff is currently 40% off listed at $132 an oz I think before review coupons or referral credits.
First thing upon noticing upon opening the bag is that the Sweet armor came through quite strong.. normally I find sweeter stuff to be more muted to me It's almost like the smell o...f a fresh plain cake with a dash of icing and maybe some really really really light citrus or something to give it a little more pzazz, tiny bit of undertones here with whatever this flavor is too.. might be citrus might be something else. The nugs are fairly tight and I was surprised at the size of these things... Probably some of the biggest nugs I've gotten from HGA all year. Nice trich coverage and stickyness to it. Smoked good in a joint, smooth on the inhale, medium to heavy pull on the exhale. Not a completely couch locking high, but definitely can feel the indica dominance in this... assuming it's indica dominant... Maybe I'm talking out my ass... that's how it feels though, 70/30 ind/sat estimation judging by effects.
Numba 1 stunna right here boys and it's 30% Off as we speak I do believe. This stuff will have you stunned and couch locked no doubt about it, whether your a concentrate smoker or strictly flower it's got enough strength to do the trick for almost anyone I would imagine. Open this and jar it... outside unless you want your house to stink for the next 3 hours of dank weed... Heavy gas and skunk... I'm not sure why it's called Chocolate mousse but I understand the death half. This batch seemed hairier than all the other batches I had this year, but still rocks just as hard as the rest.
This batch was advertised as one of the best of the year so you know I had to order it and try it out. It seemed a little fresher than batches in the past, but not too fresh or anything. Same great DMC Taste and smell, this is probably the nicest looking batch of DMC that's for sure. I've on...ly tried a couple joints but I think it's going to hit better in a couple days from now. That being said I'd still rate it as one of the better batches, maybe not the best batch but maybe after it sits in a jar for a week that will change.
Anyone new to DMC or HGA, It's a skunky, spicy, ultra dank strain that will have you feeling sedated and guaranteed to get you medicated... might not be the energetic buzz you wanted, but you'll be medicated! Even as a heavy concentrate smoker this stuff always seems to do the trick. Nice slow burn, clean ash. There is a reason ppl keep coming back to HGA for this and their Death Chocolate Mousse.
Q: 9.5/10 - We will see if it hits a little harder after sitting in the jar for a week
V: 9.6/10 - I think this stuff was 35% off so you could get an ounce for $186 or $182 or something and then if your smart about using HGA, you'll use your review coupon and get an additional $25 off and free shipping. True AAAA for $150.... can't go wrong and tough to beat on the market right now. Make sure to get a referral from a friend or someone else if your new to the site! Cheers.
First thoughts on this when opening is that it looked real nice but smelled really muted. It was a sample in with some other stuff so to be expected with only a gram and a half of it there kinda. Was happy when I cracked the nug open and was met with what I almost think is a LIGHT kush smell.. it...9;s like a fancy man's kush that doesn't wanna stank too much. Some slight undertones of garlic but like I said a light smell. When I lit it up the taste was very similar to the smell.. very faint light taste, but I think that's from the garlic and the kush melding together into a new scent/taste because it gave me a good terp sneeze shortly after lighting it up.
Honestly I didn't expect this to hit as hard as it did... great potency on it.. smoke was smooth on inhale with some grab at the lungs on the exhale. Salt and peppered ash, but mainly white. By the end of the joint I had a slight sweat worked up on my brow. Potency levels were a little bit under HGA's DMC for any HGA smokers out there.
Q: 8.9/10 : Great weed overall, was really surprised by it.. fairly generic looking and the taste wasn't to bold either, but it definitely hits right.
V: 8.1/10 - $240 an ounce isn't the best price out there on AAAA pot, but it does seem to be around the standard. Some people are charging 300+ For weed that doesn't hit as hard.. when the fuck did pot become $300+ an ounce? god I love legalization.
