10/31/2020
Face Mints 21.81 THC 5/13/20 Cultivator: Cresco About 12 mixed size buds, well-trimmed & cured. Well coated in cakey white trichomes throughout. There was little aroma, lightly herbal and grassy. The taste was primarily light citrus and moderate diesel, with a long menthol, herbal, and spicy finish. Cresco describes this as “orange and cinnamon.” which was not detected. The high is very strong and long lasting, with substantial relaxing and potentially sedating properties. It is also anxiety reducing, with an associated loss of mental clarity and concentration. Strong body effects. Couchlock at higher doses Taste:9.0 Aroma:7.0 Bud Quality/Curing:9.0 Terpene:9.0 High: 9.5 Rating: 95/100 Strain notes: (Face Off OG x Kush Mint). Indica Dominant.

Grape Sugar Cookies

10/30/2020
Grape Sugar Cookies 22.93 10/16/20 Bedford Grow Four plump buds, precisely trimmed and well-cured. Absolutely caked in white trichomes both on the interior and exterior of the bud. The aroma and taste are “as described,” with a strong scent of sweet grape, light citrus, and creaminess. The taste is sweet grape followed by some moderate fuminess, and a smooth fruity vanilla “cookies” finish. The high is perfection for a daytime/evening strain. Truly euphoric, non-sedating, with strong anxiolytic effects. The body is relaxed (especially at higher doses), and functionality is maintained without a significant loss of mental clarity. At higher doses, expect potential couchlock. A superior medical strain. A full terpene analysis of this Bedford strain would be useful. Taste:9.5 Aroma:9.5 Bud Quality/Curing:10 Terpenes: 10.0 High: 10.0 Rating: 99/100 Strain notes: (maybe Girl Scout Cookies x Grape Kush). Hybrid. Purported terpenes: Unknown.

LA Wedding Pop 21.48 THC 9/30/20 Cultivator: Cresco Six plump, well-cured buds coated in sugary, light amber trichomes. Some buds were too leafy.

Smoking through the bowl, the flavor develops into a lemony skunk with continued spiciness and hints of sweet grape. The high is strong and long-lasting, providing both mental and physical relaxation with a reduction in anxiety. Euphoric feelings and some mental cloudiness.

Aces High

10/27/2020
Aces High 19.03 THC 7/2/20 Cultivator: Grassroots (1 gm size). About 10 small popcorn buds, with embedded purple/black leaves. Well trimmed, considering size. A moderate coating of amber trichomes. The aroma was faint, green grass and light herbs. The taste lacked fruitiness, more woody, with spice and a bitter, grassy finish. The high was moderately strong and somewhat short lived (about 1 hr.) Definitely, a hybrid effect. Relaxing, both physically and mentally, but not uplifting, more mellow. Evokes happy feelings, and would be enjoyable socially. Note: Ultimately, this strain is excessively expensive, as it will not last long if consumed typically. It smokes quickly, and requires hourly updates. Taste:8.0 Aroma:7.0 Bud Quality/Curing: 8.0 Terpene: 8.0/10 High: 9.0 Overall: 84/100 Strain notes: (Lemon G x Star Dawg). Sativa dominant.

10/14/2020
Lemon Meringue Kush 24.76 THC 9/23/20 Cultivator: Cresco (a.k.a Citreonis). Four plump buds, thoroughly caked in white trichomes. Well-cured, but leafy within the buds, which did not impact the smooth finish. The aroma was relatively faint, with a blend of herbs, citrus, lavender, and pepper. The taste was pleasing and complex. On first toke, an intense lemony diesel, that is so spicy it will burn your nose. The taste mellows substantially as you smoke through the bowl to a lemony, skunky kush with a smooth creamy finish. The high is very strong, and long lasting. The main effects were mental and physical relaxation, with a reduction in anxiety. Not a “stoney” high, but one that allows a reasonable level of functionality despite the high THC level. Abundant terpene effects.

Cherry Gorilla Essence Flower

10/11/2020
Five mixed size buds, very dry, but smokes well. An ample coating of amber trichomes. The aroma is redolent of sweet red berries with an herbal earthiness. The taste starts with sour cherry, followed by a peppery/earthy/spicy flavor approaching diesel (typically associated with GG4). The high was very strong and long lasting, attributable to the strains high THC & terpene level. Mental and significant physical relaxation were felt within a state of happiness and contentment.

MAC Flower 3.5g

10/11/2020
MAC 7 (Miracle Alien Cookies) 25.69 THC 9/28/20 Cultivator: Cresco Six puffy buds, absolutely coated in white trichomes. Somewhat leafy, but well cured with a nice dense smoke. The aroma was mildly fruity, grassy and faintly herbal. The taste was complex, with the essence of cherry throughout. It possesses diesel-like tastes, with some fuminess and a smooth minty/menthol finish with some funkiness. The high was uncharacteristically basic for this strain based on prior testing from other cultivators (Aeriz, Grassroots). Moderately strong and lasting, less than one would expect based on the THC level. Essentially, a relaxing high with associated sedation. It is almost as if the terpenes are missing. Taste:8.0 Aroma:7.5 Bud Quality/Curing:9.0 Terpene: 6.5/10 High: 8.0/10 Overall: 85/100 Strain notes: (Alien Cookies F2 x Starfighter x Columbian landrace). Hybrid.
