Name: Hammerhead

From: Toronto Compassion Center (Dispensary – Toronto)

Grade: A

Type: Indica

Genetics: Afghani

Price: $9(CND)/g

Looks: Hard, thick and rotund olive green buds that are encrusted with resin.

Smell: Funky garlic, pepper and cheese.

Taste: Very much like the smell.  Yum.

Buzz Type: Narcotic and debilitating.

Buzz Length: Very long 3+ hours.  I almost always end up falling asleep before that though.

Overall: Hammerhead produces an immediate and incredibly strong stone that never fails to render me in a serene stupor.  Its aroma and effects are very similar to a Hogsbreath phenotype I tried a few years ago.  I’m very fond of genetics like this and am eager to encounter more.  -Mel Topps

These images look so-very-sticky.  -Mrs. Chubbs

Also, thank you to all that have been sending in reviews.  While I am not able to reply to each one, rest assured I am receiving them and putting them in the que.  There is some good looking medicine out there!  Speaking of which, here’s one great strain right now:

Submitted by: Mel Topps (Member and Editor)

Name: Blueberry

From: Private Dealer

Grade: A

Type: Hybrid – mostly Indica

Price: $200/oz

Looks: Spear shaped, lime green buds with the odd purple tinge and a tacky layer of resin.

Smell: Fresh blueberries and acrid pineapple.  Very fragrant when prepared and different tasting than other blueberry varieties I’ve encountered.

Taste: Delicious and smooth, the smell is very similar to the flavor.

Buzz Type: Content, relaxed and euphoric.  Mostly indica buzz that eventually becomes very sedative if not used with caution.

Buzz Length: Very long.

Overall: This is a fantastic representation of a solid blueberry strain and at $200/oz you can’t go wrong.  This is a great strain for balancing out the more intense and spacey sativas like Jack Herer and Isis.  -Mel Topps

I realized I haven’t posted many Hybrids lately – so sorry!  I hope this one makes up for it.  -Mrs. Chubbs

From: Toronto Compassion Centre

Grade: A+

Type: Indica

Price: $9 (Canadian)/g

Looks: Gorgeous, emerald green nuggets of densely clusters calyxes enveloped completely by a heavy layer of trichomes.

Smell: Like dill pickle chips, garlic and acrid mangoes.  Very distinct aroma.

Taste: Almost identical to the smell.  Delicious.

Buzz Type: Relaxing, mellow and euphoric.

Buzz Length: Long, over 2.5 hours after consuming 1 medium balloon of vapor.

Overall: Ghandi is a very solid, unique and impressive strain.  The effects are very pleasant and balanced and the flavor is an added bonus.  Superb genetics grown to perfection. – Mel Topps

Submitted By: Mel Topps (Member and Editor)

Name: Jack Flash

From: Toronto Compassion Center (Dispensary – Toronto)

Grade: A

Type: Hybrid – 60% sativa / 40% indica

Price: $9(cnd)/G

Looks: Fragile, olive green buds with orange/red pistils and a thick layer or resin.

Smell: Spicy and hashy with very faint citrus undertones.

Taste: Thick, spicy and slightly sweet vapor.

Buzz Type: Strong, relaxing though not sedating buzz that is very noticeable. Suitable for daytime use.

Buzz Length: Long. A few hours at least. The peak was seemingly constant for the first hour then leveled off very smoothly.

Overall: Great hybrid that mixes especially well with Strawberry Jab. I prefer this Jack hybrid to the pure form because it’s not nearly as devastating and is more balanced which gives it greater diversity.  –Mel Topps

The second pic reminds me of these golf ball nugs I use to get back in the day. Man were they potent. Thanks for another great review!  –Chubbs

Name: Chronic

From: Southern Ontario Dispensary (Dispensary – Ontario Canada)

Grade: A-

Type: Indica dominant hybrid (40s/60i)

Price: $8(cnd)/G

Looks: Spongy, trichome laden buds with somewhat pale, emerald leaves protecting tightly clustered calyxs and erratic tufts of pistils.

Smell: Not very powerful at all, like sweet honey tea and light spices.

Taste: Exactly like the smell.

Buzz Type: Immediate punch in the face type buzz. Very potent effects that can be felt on both ends of the spectrum.

Buzz Length: Long. 2.5+ Hours.

Overall: Incredibly diverse strain. Great for adding another dimension to any variety or mix or for using as a base for hash. The only drawback is the lack of taste and flavor which is hardly noticeable when mixed.

I’ve been getting different phenotypes of Chronic for the past 3 years and this one ranks in the middle of the pack.  –Mel Topps

The taste and smell sound a lot like the Chronic I grew 10 years ago. It’s a great strain to play around with if you happen to have a garden.  –Chubbs

Price: $9(cnd)/G

Looks: Thick, jagged buds that gleam with the trove of trichomes they contain. Leaves are emerald green with the occasional tinge of purple.

Smell: Funky, zesty and acrid like a mix of garlic, peppers, smelly cheese with undertones of rotten fruit.

Taste: Exactly like the smell. Surprisingly savory and delectable.

Buzz Length: Long. 2.5+ hours.

Overall: Another one of my favorite strains. I am anxiously anticipating the day when I am again able to stock my cabinet with this fine herb. The funky aroma, floaty and pleasant effects, and aesthetics are extremely appealing.  –Mel Topps

Submitted By: Mel Topps (Member)

Name: Jack Herer

From: Toronto Compassion Center (Dispensary – Toronto)

Grade: A+

Type: Sativa

Price: $9(cnd)/G

Looks: Sugary, sharply shaped spears. These buds have noticeably amber trichomes and rust colored pistils.

Smell: Spicy and acrid nose like peppers and acrid citrus fruit.

Taste: Sandalwood and pepper is the predominant taste with distinct undertones of ripe fruit.

Buzz Type: Narcotic. When used by itself it blasts me to the moon for a few hours after which you lose your momentum and come crashing down making it great for mixing with indicas and alleviating insomnia. The initial buzz is akin to Isis in it’s devastating punch, but the Isis is substantially more spacey.

Buzz Length: Long. 3-4 hours.

Overall: Astoundingly potent sativa. I am never disappointed when I grab Jack Herer. I always mix it if using it during the day, as by itself it almost always incapacitates me.  –Mel Topps

Great review Mel. I am a huge fan of Jack Herer. I had some recently that tasted so good I wish I’d of bought 10x more.  –Chubbs

Name: Jillybean

From: Private grower via Subcool Seeds

Grade: A+

Type: Indica dominant hybrid with skunk lineage.

Price: $9(cnd)/G

Looks: Delicate, glistening flowers with dark green fan leaves and tufts of thick orange pistils.

Smell: Combination or tangerines, oranges, grapefruits and artificial candies.

Taste: Tastes exactly as it smells making for a delectable smoke/vapor making it one of my favorite solar toking herbs.

Buzz Type: A delightful, euphoric buzz that’s relaxing/calming though not completely debilitating. Great for lazy afternoons.

Buzz Length: Medium-Long. After a blissful couple of hours I’m eased gently back into sobriety.

Overall: Another great variety produced by TGA. This is incredible marijuana, especially for my medical application, it’s a shame I was only able to get and 1/8th. Jillybean has so many applications and is so diverse. I anxiously anticipate the next time I can obtain some of this consummate marijuana.  –Mel Topps

Looking good as usual. The trichomes in the last picture are practically jumping off the buds. Very nice.  –Chubbs
