Platinum Bubba From Go Green Bear (mundane)

Thanks to mundane for his first review – with many more to come!

Submitted By: mundane (Member)

Camera Used: Nikon Cookpix 2500

Name: Platinum Bubba

From: Go Green Bear (Dispensary – Los Angeles)

Grade: B

Type: Hybrid

Price: $45/8th

Looks: Massive buds. Very leafy. Dark green with yellow highlights. Short brown hairs here and there. Sparse trichome coverage.

Smell: Subtle and musky.

Taste: Through the vape, it’s like the smell – musky and subdued. Through a pipe, the smoke taste overwhelms the bud’s taste.

Buzz Type: If I was up doing something, the sativa side kept me going without abnormal tiring. Once I sat down, I found it very comfortable to stay that way.

Buzz Length: Short. I was always re-dosing on something else forty-five minutes after using this.

Overall: The name intrigued me, but I should have taken a closer look before I bought it. I checked it out under a microscope and found that the trichomes were still clear, so I suspect that this was hastily harvested.

I’ve bought other meds from this particular dispensary and found them more than satisfactory, so I can really only blame myself for not taking a closer look. –mundane

With a name like Platinum, I would have expected much more…this was pretty leafy too. –Mrs. Chubbs

Obama OG Kush From California Caregivers Alliance (jrocco71)

Chubbs — Thu, 18 Feb 2010 06:35:12 +0000

Here is first – frosty! – review from MR member jrocco71:

Submitted By: jrocco71 (Member)

Name: Obama OG Kush

From: California Caregivers Alliance (Dispensary – Los Angeles)

Grade: A+

Type: Indica

Price: $30/gram

Looks: Tight but fluffy, shimmering dark green balls with a mass of fuzzy orange hairs.

Smell: Quintessential Kush; piney, sweet, and pungent.

Taste: Light and airy version of most Kush strains.

Buzz Type: Extra clean! Smooth, full-body warmth that hits immediately but with a mellow impact; no paranoia here. It is almost transcendental. Great for artists and musicians. I blazed a tiny nug and next thing I know, I’d been playing guitars at Guitar Center for over three hours.

Buzz Length: Long. 2+ hours.

Overall: Los Angeles is effectively a cornucopia of exclusive and expensive bud strains, with new stuff coming to market like clockwork! The latest of these offerings and one which is still in such small supply it has managed to stay off the radar for months, is Obama.

An OG Kush derived plant, like the name implies, this bud represents a real change in style for California growers and, although it lacks the knock-your-d*&k-in-the-dirt stone of Fire OG or Swiss Cheese, Obama proves there is hope for those of us who refuse to smoke anything but the very, very best life has to offer: taste-wise, smell-wise, and high-wise!

The price is a bit ridiculous; the same way Luke Skywalker was overpriced for a while. I can only afford to buy it by the gram and the supply is so limited – the stuff is so exclusive – that they refuse to sell more than one eighth per patient!

Amazing bud, though. Very tasty. Very special. –jrocco71

Because I’m such a crazy planner, I love strains that let me lose track of time. This one sounds just right. –Mrs. Chubbs

F-13 From Apothecary 420 (IE420Patient)

Chubbs — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 06:55:39 +0000

I am so pleased to post this review, making IE420Patient an Editor!

Submitted By: IE420Patient (Member and Editor)

Name: F-13

From: Apothecary 420 (Dispensary – Los Angeles)

Grade: A+

Type: Sativa

Price: $75/8th – CASH

Looks: Nice, tight buds covered in white/orange trichs.

Smell: A very sweet-like lemony, citrus smell with spicy overtones.

Taste: Taste is just like it smells. A nice spicy kick on the palate.

Buzz Type: Very energetic. A great cerebral and body buzz. The buzz starts at the head and I actually felt it creep down to my toes.

Everything around me seemed so much more interesting. I also like the fact I did not get the munchies or feel the need to eat (some qualities dieters may like although everyone is different).

Buzz Length: Medium-long. A small nug in a bubbler (got to say thanks to A420 for hooking me up with a free bubbler) will take you on about anhour trip. Probably double that for the typical sized bong bowl.

Overall: I got to say this is a some good sativa. I hope this one is not here today and gone tomorrow as this would be a regular in my medicine cabinet. My head was very clear and my body was comfortable. I was able to engage and multitask very easily.

I can see this being a top strain for Gamers as you can get immersed real fast. Play Mirror’s Edge on a PS3 after ripping a bowl of this and you’ll understand what I mean. –IE420Patient

That’s some pretty expensive medicine – it better be an A+! –Mrs. Chubbs

Blue Haze (necros)

Chubbs — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 06:58:17 +0000

First review on this strain, anyone else try this?

Submitted By: necros (Member and Editor)

Name: Blue Haze

From: Apothecary 420 (Dispensary – Los Angeles)

Grade: A-

Type: Hybrid (Sativa dominant)

Genetics: Blueberry x Haze

Price: $20/g

Looks: Fuzzy, little beige trichomes all over these buds. Light to medium green leaves with a moderate amount of orange hairs.

Smell: Strong, pungent sour-sweet sativa smell.

Taste: Even the larger bong hits I took seemed to go down smooth and sweet.

Buzz Type: Good elation and focus, great head buzz.

Buzz Length: Long. 2+ Hours.

Overall: I’m usually not big on taste but man this stuff was fun to smoke. The quality of the buzz was euphoric without bringing you down.

Definitely a great choice for daytime or wake n’ bake. –necros

WOW – I never grow tired looking at these close-up shots. –Mrs. Chubbs

AK-47 (necros)

Chubbs — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 06:55:37 +0000

Necros always has a great review for us…

Submitted By: necros (Member and Editor)

Name: AK-47

From: Koreatown Collective (Dispensary – Los Angeles)

Grade: A-

Type: Hybrid

Price: $20/g, $50/8th

Looks: Gazillions of orange hairs, nice tricome presence.

They look like little mini-bushes like you would use to decorate a train set. They also have a very Army camouflage vibe, but I’m not sure if that’s just the name influencing me.

Smell: A very subtle sativa-like smell, slightly fruity.

Taste: It’s a good taste, kind of generic marijuana taste. Subtle sweet aftertaste.

Buzz Type: Heavy and stoney with good focus.

Buzz Length: Medium. Almost two hours.

Overall: AK-47 has been in the running in so many High Times Cannabis Cups (in both the Sativa and Indica categories) that I had to try a gram when I saw it pop up.

Since it’s described as “mostly sativa” I was hoping it would have sativa-like effects with the potency of an indica. Well, it’s potent but it’s definitely an indica-like stoney buzz. The sativa part adds some layers to the high though.

A great strain to smoke before a movie. I also got the munchies pretty bad so it’s a good appetite stimulant. –necros

WOW, thanks for all the photos…these buds look beautiful! –Mrs. Chubbs

Meteoroid (Heroic)

I love all these names. Just something else to go along with all the planetary strains. Next thing you know, we’ll be seeing Crab Nebula OG!

Submitted By: Heroic (Member)

Camera Used: ?

Name: Meteoroid

From: Apothecary 420 (Dispensary – Los Angeles)

Grade: A+

Type: Indica

Price: $25-35/g

Looks: Great looking tightly packed buds, deep green and covered with little orange hairs.

Smell: Strong and citric, almost like a freshly cut lemons, but with classic marijuana smell mixed in. It’s definitely one of my favorite smelling strains.

Taste: I use a vaporizer so I’m not sure what the smoke tastes like, but the vapor is great. Has a strong lemon taste.

Buzz Type: Very clear headed, without any paranoia. It has a good mix between a body high and cerebral.

Leaves you feeling content and relaxed, but no couch lock.

Buzz Length: Medium to Long, 2+ hours. Two hits from the vaporizer and I’m good for at least a couple hours.

Overall: A great strain, my new favorite actually. I do realize it’s expensive, but in my opinion more than worth it, especially with a vaporizer.

I’ve never seen a strain produce such a thick cloud of vapor. –Heroic

WOW – great first review, Heroic! –Mrs. Chubbs

White OG Kush (kDAVR)

Chubbs — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 01:37:53 +0000

Yet another “white” strain…

Submitted By: kDAVR (Member)

Camera Used: ?

Name: White OG Kush

From: LAX Patient Remedies (Dispensary – Los Angeles)

Grade: B

Type: Hybrid (Sativa dominant)

Genetics: White Widow x OG Kush

Price: $70/8th

Looks: Frosty, sticky, dense popcorn buds. Dark orange hairs, well trimmed. The pics are a little unsaturated, weak camera.

Smell: Standard Kush scent, but also a citrus sweet smell.

Taste: Same as smell on exhale.

Buzz Type: Mostly uplifting, alert cerebral high. Very little body stone. Good for getting an appetite, playing some Call of Duty and writing your first review.

Buzz Length: Long. After a few good rips the high lasted about 2 1/2 hours.

Overall: This strain has quickly jumped up on my list of favorites…right up there with Blue Rhino and Diablo OG Kush. I highly recommend it. –kDAVR

Ohhh, I would love to see the Blue Rhino. Send us a review! Thanks kDAVR. –Mrs. Chubbs
