Lineage: Pineapple Pez x Lemon Sorbetto x Watermelon ZKittlez

Bag appeal on these buds were pretty nice. Colours took after a more vivid tone, while deep orange and purple hues added to the vibrance. Cure was great, while same could be said for moisture content. They were nicely trimmed,... and had slight tackiness on the outer and inner surfaces.

Terps definitely lived up to its name. Sour goodness. Very acerbic in nature in a pleasing way. Strong sour lemon citrus terps, grapefruit like, backed by creamy undertones. Flavour wasn't as sharp as smell, yet still pronounced, and translated well. It was very tangy, tart, but the creaminess that held up made it a bit more palatable, which also lingered around for the aftertaste, along some sourness.

Burn quality was decent, held up consistently, and hits were rather clean. Smooth no matter combustion method. Ash was salt & pepper, but did seem to lean more salt.

The effects were balanced but potency was mild. It's not a hard hitting strain, something that would be ideal for daytime, still allowing for productivity. For me I was underwhelmed, but I did find it nice for starting the day. If seeking a knock out strain, or one with notable effects, you may want to consider something else.

With everything considered, I'm glad I was able to try Pez Sourz. It was terpy and had nice flavours, along a decent bag appeal, bud structure, and cure. I would only recommend if you tend to have a lower tolerance, or if seeking this type of terpene profile.

Lineage: Secret Cookies x Kush Mints

Nugs were about the size of a quarter coin, some little bigger, but the entire half oz had almost no popcorns. They looked great, trim was nice, and were somewhat dense yet spongy in structure. Lightly crispy on the outside, but overall moisture was a...dequate.

The nose was mild at first, but got bit more pronounced after grounding herb. It wasn't too sweet, leaning more towards a savory profile. Main notes were earthy, funky, doughy, creamy, and nutty. There were subtle notes of mint, and pine beneath it all. Surprisingly, flavour translated much better, tasty throughout. All notes came through moderately in strength, and was rather buttery tasting. Some pine, and nuttiness closely followed after inhale, which ended on a minty note. There was an aftertaste of mint butter that was very pleasing.

Burn quality could be better, but for smalls not too shaby. Although ash was salt & pepper, flavour and translation still held up nicely. Smooth, clean tasting hits, the  combustion was also good for the most part.

Balanced effects, backed by a medium potency. The cerebral side was euphoric and uplifting, also creative with increase in focus. Full bodied effects kicked in later on, which made for a light, hazy, relaxed, calm state. Still functional, but higher amounts can lead to some couch lock and minor sedation.

This was a decent smalls offering from KF, and I found the experience satisfactory. The nose was milder, but made up for it in flavour, and although burn wasn't ideal, still turned out to be a smooth, palatable smoke. An half oz came to around $53 after discount, not bad, as the quality was sufficient.

Lineage: Unicorn Poop x Apple Fritter

My first time trying The Drip so I picked up a small amount to start things off. This strain got my attention due to its history of lineage, and rarity.

Buds were decent looking and had a good composition. Conal shape with some foxtailing... along a semi dense, springy feel. The bright lime green colours were a bit catchy, although there weren't alot of contrast going on. Cure was spot on, absolutely perfect. It was slightly tacky and the grounded herb broke out nicely to a plush velvety texture.

Nose was terpy, complex, not crazy loud, but pronounced. Sweet and sour berry, gassy smell, with some pine and skunk in the mix. There were also hints of floral and earthy notes. Flavour was more on the pungent side with a subtle spicy profile to match. Taste translated well, got gassy and piney about midway, and had ended with bit of earthiness. Flavour wasn't out of this world, but undoubtedly tasty and held up nicely.

Burn quality was good. Clean, strong, yet smooth tasting and was rather greasy with a fair amount of resin production. The ash appeared to be towards salt and pepper, though more salt I'd say.

Was a very uplifting mood changing experience, some light mental stimulation at first, tapering to a floaty heady buzz. Physical side of things kicked in not long after, putting me in a moderately relaxed state with some couch lock. I did tend to doze off at times, so potency was on stronger side and effects were lasting. Definitely an evening time smoke.

Turned out to be quite decent and really have no major complaints for this run. Wasn't perfect in every aspect, but did the job just fine. The perfect cure, nose, flavour, and potency were the highlights. An eight cost about $25 after discount, which I felt was a fair price, and was only sold in small quantities up to 7 grams.

Was looking forward to this amazing cross from BBCF. Listed as a heavy hitter, it sure sounded right up my alley.

Bag appeal was average. I didn't find the buds too visually appealing, for having a colour scheme that was mostly deeper greens and a rather simple contrast. However, the... buds were well structured, and the trim, cure, and stickiness were commendable.

The nose was lovely, terpy, and somewhat dank. Nutty cookie like terps, very sweet & sour, heavy presence of pine, while there were lighter notes of mint and gas trailing behind. Flavour translated decently for the most part, wasn't rich nor mouth coating, but still pleasing to the palette. It did seem to fall apart just after 3/4 of the joint, where it became rough and ashy.

I found the burn to be inconsistent in terms of ash, but combustion, and overall smoothness were on the right track. Was a little greasy during the early stages as well. The ash started off white/light grey with few peppered spots, but had turned more peppery around 1/3 of the joint.

This batch was claimed to be lab tested at 31% thc. Now, I never go according to these numbers, since effects are subjective and different for everyone. Ultimately, I didn't find it to be a heavy hitter, nor was I overwhelmed. The effects were very indica leaning, but potency was moderate at best.

This quarter came out to around $48. Nose, cure, and bud structure were the standouts for me. Flavour was mostly good, but got inconsistent nearing the end, while same could be said for burn quality. It isn't a perfect smoke, yet doesn't fail by any means. I wouldn't necessarily recommend at regular price, but maybe worth it when discounted.

These buds had a nice bag appeal, the trim was good, and structure was rather tightly dense. They appeared light to medium green in colour, had subtle black purple hues and orange pistols, coated by a layer of milky amber trichomes. Although they weren't too sticky, the cure was ideal, and same ...goes for moisture level. There was a slight tackiness which became apparent when breaking them apart.

The terps were very pronounced and complex with an overtone of cream, funk, dough, and sweet notes, while there were undertones of sour citrus, mint, and some gas. Synced wonderfully for a really exotic smell, and taste translated just as fine. Terpy and delicious, all notes mentioned above were present in taste, and held up till the last draw. The creaminess really kicked in about 1/3 through joint, and there was a pleasant sour minty taste left on palette.

The burn quality wasn't the greatest, yet far from terrible. Barely a greasy burn along a salt n pepper ash, but was still very smooth, combusted perfectly, and had no issues staying ignited. Bong hits were clean, punchy, and produced a thick smoke.

Effects were on the stronger side, above average potency, and was noticeably indica leaning. A very uplifting buzz to start off, lots of energy, and mind awareness. Not long after I was in a moderately relaxed state, at full ease, with some couch lock starting to occur. It did make me a bit sleepy after some hours, so effects do seem to last.

This drop turned out to be pretty decent. For me, the best part about it were the terps and flavour, followed by potency and appearance. Although the salt n pepper ash was least favoured, the burn quality was satisfactory at end of day, and still made for a smooth tasty smoke. At $55 per quarter, it's not the best price, but at least a fair one, for the overall quality and experience you're getting.

Lineage: Biscotti x Gushers

This was another good looking strain that looked similar to Mochi Triangle. Mint light green colours contrasted by subtle purple hues, and lively red-orange pistols. Right off the bat, I found the cure and moisture content to be quite better than MT. No drynes...s at all. They were perfectly cured, resinous, and fairly sticky when handling the buds.

The nose was just as pronounced as Mochi Triangle, but had much better flavours and translation. Smell was sweet, fruity, spicy apples. More sweet than spice, but also had other notes of pine, skunk, and gas underneath the fruity overtone. Taste translated very nicely, and held up during entire burn. Pretty much tasted the same as smell, all notes came through, and didn't seem to fall off. Biscotti Gushers was definitely terpier, had sharper flavours, and a more refined translation.

Both strains had similar burn qualities, but BG did manage to combust slower. Clean, smooth hits, whether in bong or joint, it was greasy burning, and had an ash that was mostly light grey with some peppering.

Effects were a little more indica leaning, yet still hovering around mid potency. There was less mental stimulation, and a slightly heavier couch lock effect, but at no time was I feeling sedated, nor did it knock me out. It was a rather moderate, full bodied buzz that left me functional.

I can safely say that I had much more enjoyed Biscotti Gushers. It was just better in every way, especially the moisture content, and overall flavour production. This one gets my recommendation, and it's undoubtedly worth it during the 10% off 420 sale.

Lineage: OG Kush x Triangle Kush x Mochi Gelato

First time trying Hierba. There's been mixed feedback over the years, but I wanted to see how this experience would turn out anyway.

Good bag appeal, buds had lighter pastel colours sporting vivid tones. The minty light gree...ns stood out amongst amber, orange, and purple hues. Elongated and dense in structure with a good trim, I found them to be a tad dry, though not crumbly, but were still very resinous and somewhat sticky when breaking them apart. Grounded up fine in texture, yet wasn't powdery at all.

Nose smelled akin to Gelato. Sweet, fruity, creamy, and berry, with undertones of sourness, skunk, and pine. Terps and flavour translated mildly, except no fruit or berry taste, and was rather spicy on initial draw. There was also an aftertaste of cream and mint on exhale. Sadly, flavour didn't hold up well, fell short about midway through joint. Got spicier and more pungent, as the rest of notes gradually faded, but the cream and mintyness had retained its course.

Burn quality was very good. Didn't combust as slowly, but made for a clean, smooth tasting experience. The ash was mostly light grey with few peppering, and was greasy for the most part.

Buzz was slight indica leaning, maybe like a 60/40 type, and potency was about medium. The cerebral side did stimulate some creativity and the will to engage in activities, which ultimately tapered to moderate relaxation and some couch lock after an hour or so.

Overall, I didn't find this particular batch worthy of high praise. Besides the slight dryness, flavour was mild and some notes lost it a bit after some time. The bag appeal, burn quality, and potency did seem to make up somewhat, but at end of day, it was just average for me with all things considered.

Lineage: Bubba Kush x Harmony (Rockstar cut)

Rockstar Kush Harmony cut grown by private grower. An old favourite of mine, so I was eager to try this version.

These spade shaped buds were beautifully structured, with an array of contrasting colours to go. Some minor foxtailing... going on, accentuating bag appeal along with vivid tones, and frosty crystal trichomes. Very resinous buds that gummed fingers, the cure was absolutely perfect and super sticky.

Terps were pronounced, not heavy dank, but aromatic. Overtones of spice, skunk, gas, and pine, along some milder sweetness, earth, and herbal notes underneath. This all translated very nicely to taste, held up well, and carried through. There was some sweetness trailing behind coming to end of inhale, while exhale ended with bit of creamy earthiness.

Joints burned continuously, was a little greasy at times, but despite having an ash that was salt n pepper, the flavour wasn't affected. It was mostly clean and smooth, even in bong where hits were heavy yet retained that smoothness.

The potency I would describe as slightly above medium. It had the ability to make me sedated after some hours, but this is with consuming higher dosages. With smaller amounts I found it more of a chill, relaxing afternoon strain, ideal for hanging out or just kicking back with light activities. Effects were very euphoric and uplifting, full bodied, inducing some couch lock as well.

I was happy with this purchase, overall quality was great, and the experience was fulfilling. Terpy, tasty, buds that had great bag appeal, along decent potency to back everything up. There's a 420 sale at moment for 10% off, so I bought this quarter for just under $50. An oz goes for $180, but after sale comes down to $162. Absolutely worth it at that price in my opinion.

Lineage: Alien Kush x Cherry Pie

Purchased a half oz which arrived with 4 medium sized buds all over 3.5g each. Simple looking in terms of colour, having a base dark green tone, pinkish purple hues, and rusty coloured pistols. Very dense core and structure, buds were nicely trimmed, stic...ky, and had an ideal moisture level.

Nose was predominantly heavy gas and skunk, earthy, not really sweet, aside from subtle floral undertones which became apparent when buds were compressed, further revealing faint sour citrus notes as well. Flavour translated just fine, was a rather heavy, pungent smoke, yet tasty, and carried a spicy profile. The gas and skunk followed throughout from start to end, held up well, and was accompanied by hints of earthiness on exhale.

It burned nicely for the most part, evenly, stayed lit, and combusted slowly. Due to the heavy, strong, thick smoke, it wasn't the smoothest burn, yet I never experienced any irritation nor harshness at all. Ash was salt n pepper, wasn't too greasy, but still made for an enjoyable smoke.

Strong potency, a Mike Tyson contender. Heavy indica buzz with an initial cerebral kick, that led to some spaceyness as I drifted away in a serene state of mind. Notable creeper like body effects took toll not long after, subduing me into couch lock as physical tensions eased. Lasting effects that ultimately led to sedation and a great night's rest.

This batch of Gas Mask was decent overall. They weren't the prettiest buds, and ash could be better, but everything else was solid. At $149 per oz, the quality is there and well represented by the price you're paying. It's simply good gas, at a reasonable offer.

Lineage: Gelato 33 x Wedding Cake

Had been anticipating OGK Suge's ICC for quite some time. It is one of their mains, so I was pretty stoked to see how it lived up to the hype.

Great bag appeal, nugs appeared to have shades of olive to light green, hints of purple, all to...pped off by a thick layer of crystal trichomes. Dense but not too compact with a somewhat bouncy structure, they were nicely trimmed and cured, along an average level of stickiness.

Nose and flavour were the best part about the entire experience. Insanely good. Reeks of sweet, sugary, creamy, vanilla cake, and had undertones of earth, sour citrus, and pine. Taste translated perfectly, seamlessly, mouth coating throughout. Was very sweet tasting, dessert like, not very gassy, which I didn't mind at all. Every note came through well, held up all the way, and ended with a rich exhale leaving some mintyness on the palette. Absolute pleasure to smell and taste.

Burn was rather clean and smooth, tasted great to the end and never got harsh. Bong hits were strong, while joints combusted slowly. However, ash was not the best, mostly salt and pepper, but didn't seem to have an affect on the rich flavour profile.

Surprisly, the effects hit better than expected. I would say potency was above average, had me feeling uplifted and fully relaxed in no time. Long lasting that led to moderate couch lock with very mild sedation after some time. Not knock out, but pretty decent effects overall.

In my opinion, OGK Suge's cut lives up to the hype. I only ordered an eight to try, which turned out to be really good, that I should have gotten more. It checks every box, except the ash could be improved. Other than that, it was nothing short of a pleasant experience, and it's a cut of ICC that I can particularly recommend.
