Size: 8/10 All decent sized nugs with some popcorn buds. Several buds >2 grams but generally the rest were between .8-1 gram. One pictured would be two glued together totalling 1.8 grams.
Bag Appeal: 10/10 Gotta say nothing beats the visual appeal of this bud for me so far. Unbelievably v...isible trichromes. These things trichromes were so dense in some areas it gives it the appearance of a rug. Light nugs that had a perfect cure with a sticky and bouncy feel to the bud structure.
Smell Intensity: 9/10 Immediate nose of citrus with a piney afternotes. Not sure If I can say orange versus lemon smell on a good day anyway but generally strong enjoyable smell that you’d likely expect from the name as soon as you cracked the bag.
Taste: 10/10 Another bud that that delivers what the name suggests, bright citrus from inhale to exhale with slight woody and sour notes throughout. Really distinct and enjoyable. Something I could smoke over and over.
Smoke: 10/10 Super thick white clouds, that were really really smooth with an almost buttery feel to it. Very even smoke throughout a joint with a white ash to finish
Buzz: 9/10 Initially was hit with an uplifting head high which let me get stuff done. Was outside for two hours working away while feeling fairly relaxed. I could see myself smoking this bud when out with friends or heading out to a sporting event as I wasn’t feeling at all couch locked or unable to keep my eyes open. However the potency was on point with a strong buzz felt even an hour and half later only feeling the need to smoke again 2.5 hours later. Will be keeping this aside for when I need to be productive or socialize.
Value: 8/10 You can find this bud at the steep pricepoint of 250/Oz. I can say that it delivers on everything it offers and if you want to have a trophy bud to display somewhere to wow your buddies this would be it. Bag appeal would be very difficult to beat and smoke was especially enjoyable. Above average potency round this bud off in all the right ways. Again if you’ve got money to burn and people to impress this might be the right way to do it.
Size: 6/10 Had a one gram sampler which came with my Oz purchase. Bud was a .9. I’m assuming buds would be bigger when purchasing.
Bag Appeal: 7/10 Light green bud with bright orange pistils scattered throughout. Healthy level of frosting throughout the entire nug.
Smell: 7/1...0 Spicy and sour notes hit my nose immediate with a slight lingering smell of pine to follow.
Taste: 8/10 Sour/ chemically type note on the inhale with a spicy/piney note on the exhale. Similar to smell without the pine.
Smoke: 8/10 White clouds of smooth smoke to follow; the joint I smoked burned evenly throughout and ended with a lght grey fluffy ash to end. Smooth with only a couple coughs when finishing the jay.
Buzz: 7/10 Generally slow building high which started with a good head high feeling it behind the eyes. Nothing but good vibes with this bud; found the buzz was less potent then the orangeade and purple space cookies previously smoked but felt great completely changing my mood after smoking.
Value: 7/10 Need to take this review with a grain of salt as I was only able to try a gram sample. Quality and size of the buds would likely be improved with a larger sample of the strain. But great high that would be great for helping to elevate your mood, frosty ad bright green appearance and signature sour smell make this bud a great smoke. When looking at the price of a zip, $185 seems a bit high for me but would definitely be grabbing this strain if I could find it round $160, using a promo code or if it went on sale.
Size: 10/10 Very large dense nugs; Majority of a half ounce was 4 nugs. One pictured is 2.9 grams.
Bag Appeal: 9/10 The visual appeal of this bud is great; comparing it next to the �...��Orangeade” made it difficult for me to consider it a 10 though. The bud itself is dominated by a white frosty exterior with dark purple leaves and orange/copper pistils scattered throughout. STICKY STICKY STICKY; where I needed to wash my hands after rolling a joint. Really nice to have both these strains beside each other really as they have a complete opposite but equally satisfying look to them.
Smell: 9/10 Peppery and sweet aroma upon initial opening. There was also an earthy aroma present when busting apart.
Taste: 7/10 Smoke had a sweet and peppery/spicy taste upon inhale and exhale closely resembling the smell. The taste was less prominent then expected.
Smoke: 9/10 Smooth but dense white clouds with first few tokes. As noted was fairly smooth but started to get a bit of a tickle in the back of the throat mid-way through a joint. Light white ash was all that was left.
Buzz: 9/10 Very enjoyable and immediately relaxing buzz to it. Wasn’t couchlocked in anyway just felt a pleasant pressure behind the eye. Could see myself smoking this bud again in a social setting. Found this a good blend between an indica and sativa high as I was fairly relaxed but able to find myself wanting to get shit done still. Lasted about 1.5 hours until I felt the need to smoke again; heavy buzz throughout that time though.
Value: 7/10 Same as the orangeade, this bud is priced on the high side for my liking 235/Oz. I could easily justify buying this over and over again if it was priced at 200-210 though. Another strain to show off to buddies with its really decent sized nugs, dramatic contrast of colours, and signature cookie smell. Very enjoyable buzz and great smoke keep my value rating fairly high though.
Size: 6/10 Buds were on the small side around .5 to gram max. No shake to speak of so I’d consider it decent popcorn sized buds.
Bag Appeal: 7/10 light green and sugary exterior throughout. Outside of the popcorn sized buds the strain looked really enticing before opening.
Smell:... Intensity: 9/10 Upon opening the bag immediately hit by cheese funk followed by a peppery and earthy aroma. Really distinct smell from a lot of the other strains I’ve been trying out; likely not something I’d always be looking for but interesting to say the least.
Taste/Smoke: 7/10 Immediately peppery but smooth throughout the initial tokes. Later into the joint noticed a bit of a dry throat but overall fairly smooth and enjoyable.
Buzz: 8/10 Another creeper in terms of the high; had an initial small head high then was hit with a overall relaxed feeling that made me want to put down what I was doing and relax: found the buzz was about 1.5 hours before I was running for another J.
Value: 6/10 170$ In my opinion there is a lot of selection out there that may entice me a bit more but considering the unique smell/taste I could see myself tracking it down again. I definitely appreciated the high/buzz I got off this strain but am a bit biased as I am always looking for good indica; that relaxing/ no cares ion the world buzz is always what I’m after. The distinct funky smell and taste were the highs of this bud which might have me coming back for more in the future.
Size: 8/10 Buds were a decent. All being around 1 gram or more. One pictured was around 1.5 grams. No shake apparent in the bag.
Bag Appeal: 7/10 Buds were dense, bright green with highlights of orange pistils throughout. Trim could have been a bit better as there were a fair amount of lea...finess present.
Smell Intensity: 9/10 Immediate heavy dank smell upon opening the bag with notes of fruitiness when breaking down the nugs.
Taste: 8/10 Followed along with the above mentioned smell very closely.
Smoke: 8/10 Thick white smoke which was as smooth as could be honestly. No dry throat/mouth to speak of.
Ash: 7/10 Light grey and white ash.
Buzz: 8/10 Initially started slowly thinking there wasn’t going to much to it. After about 20-25 minutes started noticing my eyelids getting pretty heavy and a strong inclination to slow down and start vegging out. Surprised by the potency of this strain tbh as I wasn’t expecting to get hit as hard as I did. Lasted bout 2 hours before I felt the need to smoke again. Initial couch-lock feeling dissipated into a very relaxing high where I was still able to do a bunch of tasks around the house.
Value: 8/10 Great value for a 99er/Oz. I’ll be coming back to this one as I really enjoyed the high that slowly came on and crept into my head. I would definitely recommend this indica as something to enjoy moreso at night as I could easily find this one helping me get a killer sleep. Again for 99/Oz don’t think I’d go running for anything other then this ATM.
Size: 7/10 Decent sized nugs ~ 1 gram to 1.5 throughout this one was (pictured was .9). No shake found in bag. All popcorn to medium sized nugs.
Bag Appeal: 8/10 Again a sugary/frosty appearance with visible trichromes throughout. Not the greatest trim as there was a fair amount of leaves;... however they generally were as frosty as the rest of the bud.
Smell Intensity: 7/10 Generally underwhelming upon immediately opening the bag. However upon opening a bud there was a strong and sweet aroma followed by skunk.
Taste/Smoke: 8/10 Salt and pepper ash with earthy and skunky notes.
Buzz: 8/10 Upon first few tokes felt an immediate headiness followed by an overwhelming relaxed feeling. Another indica type high which I enjoyed. Hound myself needing to smoke another J around an hour and half later. Also had me running for munchies about the same time. Was able to not stay couchbound and get a couple things done around the house but was feeling nothing but good vibes while doing it.
Value: 7/10 165/Oz If trim was a bit more on point and the initial smell coming out a fresh bag wasn’t more on the underwhelming side this strain would be a 9/10. However, if you’re patient, once you crack into it you get that big hit of sweet and skunky goodness with a smoke that follows up closely on those notes.
Size: 8/10 Buds were a decent. All being around 1 gram or more. One pictured was around 1.5 grams. No shake apparent in the bag.
Bag Appeal: 7/10 Buds were dense, bright green with highlights of orange pistils throughout. Trim could have been a bit better as there were a fair amount of leaf...iness present.
Smell Intensity: 9/10 Immediate heavy dank smell upon opening the bag with notes of fruitiness when breaking down the nugs.
Taste: 8/10 Followed along with the above mentioned smell very closely.
Smoke: 8/10 Thick white smoke which was as smooth as could be honestly. No dry throat/mouth to speak of.
Ash: 7/10 Light grey and white ash.

Again for 99/Oz don’t think I’d go running for anything other then this ATM.
Overall Rating: 9/10 Easy communicating with MOM and had excellent response to requests/questions quite honestly within minutes. Reached and had good discussion with MOM through discord several times.
Sign Up: I did not have to go through... this process as I had received the product as a runner up in a contest in a discord contest. However it seems fairly easy as after looking at their website I have noticed that you do not need to provide a photo ID, which I am generally uncomfortable providing on the internet.
Ordering & Pricing: Again I did not have to order. However after perusing the website I had noticed that it was very easy to compare pricing of their product. One thing I liked was that it was fairly easy to see the discounts you could receive when ordering in bulk. When comparing to other sites lowprice bud appeared to be on par with others as I typically jump around to compare prices on similar strains. After reviewing the strains I received it was very accurate when compared to the product that I received.
Communication: Very easy to reach the MOM operator as I had found they were fairly active through discord. Had several conversations which were pleasant, to the point and FAST. Everytime I wanted to get in contact with the operator they had responded within 10 minutes! Not sure if you could beat that response time.
Packaging: The Product was supplied in a discreet package which was vacuumed sealed with the individual strains being packaged in other individually vacuumed sealed packages with their logo. They also provided papers and a small plastic herb grinder which was a nice surprise I recently was in need of a new one.
Products and Photos: 1. Black Dream 2. Lemon Sour Diesel 3.High Octane (OG)
Incentive: No real incentive. The operator of lowprice buds had offered to provide me with several products as I was a close runner up in a contest that was being held on discord. They had only requested that I provide a review of a product They were willing to send me the product without any real guarantee that I would provide this review so it can give you a bit of an idea of their character. They had been fantastic to provide me with this product even though they did not have any real incentive to do it and trusted me enough to follow through with the review.
STRAIN REVIEWS
Strain name: Black Dream
Size of Buds: 8/10 Medium to large buds. 4 buds in total with several being more than 2 grams with no shake to speak of in the bag which is always a plus in my mind.
Bag Appeal: 8/10 Fairly good bag appeal; had 3.5g so may not have been able to appreciate a full Oz’s appearance.
Cure and Humidity: 10/10 Perfect cure.
Smell Intensity: 7/10 Picked up on moreso a citrus/grapefruit smell versus fruity; which was immediately noticeable upon opening the bag. My nose also picked up on a bit of nuttiness as well.
Harshness & Smoothness: 7/10
-Only noticed some harshness after taking a bit haul which stung at the back of the throat for a couple seconds. When taking smaller relaxed hits from a joint was very smooth, without any dryness or harshness noticed in the back of the throat.
Taste Intensity: 9/10 Very noticeable especially on exhale which was most notably citrus.
Taste Complexity: 8.5/10 Noticeable flavour which was most noticeable when enjoyed in a joint. The smell was fairly close to the taste mentioned above with big citrus/grapefruit notes initially followed by an earthy/nutty note. Not overwhelmingly
Buzz Intensity: 9/10 Super enjoyable and one of the most relaxing highs I’ve noticed with any strain (been smoking for the past 12 years); however did notice initially had a major head high when initially smoking which came on fairly strong and fast. First time smokers just need to take it easy and pace themselves to make sure they can sit back and enjoy the relaxing vibe afterwards. Even with the overly relaxing feeling I found myself t still able to be productive. High lasted around 2-3 hours for me which is longer then I would typically notice.
Price: 175/Oz
Value: From my own preference this would be my least likely to re-buy from the three but that may come down to personal preference. However i must say it still would be a good value as it provided a very enjoyable high that lasted for several hours longer then I typically experience and provided a very relaxing buzz where I was still able to be productive.
“A” Scale Rating: Large dense buds, sticky, beautiful smell, great cure and consistent frostiness throughout all the buds provided. Had a slight harshness but only when going for a large haul out of a bong. Due to the initial dryness/harshness with the large tokes I would maybe grade it as a “AAA” versus a “AAA+’.
Strain name: Lemon Sour Diesel
Size of Buds: 7/10 Decent sized buds being moreso then a gram each of the 3.5 grams I won. 2 large nugs and a popcorn bud made up the 1/8th. Again due to the small quantitiy may have not been able to appreciate the true size of buds from this strain.
Bag Appeal: 9/10 Immediately drawn to the tangled red hairs and caked nature of the resin present on the buds. Tight and sticky buds always get my attention.
Cure and Humidity: 8.5/10 Really good cure but slightly on the dry side compared to the other two; nugs slightly harder and more dry then I would typically want.
Smell Intensity: 9.5/10 Funny but for a lemon sour diesel, but upon opening the bag I was hit with immediate heavy duty skunk followed by deep, sour and heavy lemon notes. Loved the smell of this one! Found myself constantly going back for another whiff and always wanting my buddies to check this one out first at the very least for the unforgettable smell.
Harshness & Smoothness: 8/10
Taste Intensity: 10/10 definitely intense and distinct taste which lives up to the name it has. LEMON + SOUR through the roof. This was the best part of this bud, I love when a strain is as simple as that and follows through with expectations.
Taste Complexity: 9/10 As mentioned above lemon and sour from the first draw to the last exhale. Also noted some spiciness on exhale the more I smoked.
Buzz Intensity:
Price: I was provided this product from a contest but their website lists a ½ Oz for $108 or full Oz for $175, seems very reasonable for the quality of product I received.
Value: I think if you were to purchase this in the half or Full Oz this would be an amazing value; after going through the rest of this product it is one I would consider purchasing again, if still available.
“A” Scale Rating: Honestly I feel that I am biased with this one as I am just blown away with the smell and taste of this strain. Love when a bud can come AS ADVERTISED. I know I will be buying more of this one in the future as I always need a strain I can count on to keep me energized, uplifted but mellow to go throughout my day and get shit done.
Strain name: High Octane (OG)
Size of Buds: 9/10 Medium to large buds. 3 buds in total with several being more than 2 grams with no shake to speak of in the bag which is always a plus in my mind.
Bag Appeal: 8.5/10 Great visual appeal upon first inspection influenced by the large buds and little to no leaf to the cut/trim. Bright green appearance with an almost sparkly appearance (which is weird to say but honestly with any light directed to it, it did just that) with beautiful red hairs that were very visible.
Cure and Humidity: 9.5/10 Another great cure which was evident upon opening with a beautiful smell and nugs with a great bounce to them.
Smell Intensity: 9/10. Intense and potent smell upon first open which was initially found to be extremely gassy developing into a morese strong pine and skunk smell the more the buds were out of the bag.
Harshness & Smoothness: 9.5/10 Could smoke this all day, no dryness at the back of the throat with huge hauls or consistent toking on joint.
Taste Intensity:8/10 Great spicy notes on exhale which reminds me of some of the strains I smoked a decade ago.
Taste Complexity: 9.5/10 Nice and spicy. Usually I prefer a fruity strain but this was right up my alley.
Buzz Intensity: 9/10 Heads up to anyone looking to get something done. For me this strain would be intended for relaxing, watching a movie, cuddling with your pets or at most heading out for a little stroll. I found myself very close to being couchlocked after 30min-1hour with my biggest struggle to get up and make the long trek to grab some munchies.
Price: 175/Oz
Value: 2nd favourite of the three but with the size of the buds, fantastic gassy smell and great cure this bud had great value. Again may come down to personal preference but either way you wouldnt’ be dissapointed for the pricepoint on this strain.
“A” Scale Rating: LPB graded this bud as a AAAA which I would agree with. Large buds, especially smooth smoke, distinct couchlock/relaxed buzz and perfect cure help me substantiate this claim.
