cannangeline reviews WP: Med (Patient Ready) by ABcann:

Another ace. This is the difference between the current market’s average strain and the direction of this industry.

The registration process was delayed due to a mix up over confirmation signatures, but my customer service rep D’Arcy was very helpful and understanding through all the confusion. She really made the difference in influencing my decision to stay and I really must say it was worth the wait!

Since it was my first order, I received a 50% discount and somehow ended up with a pre-milled jar for about $4/g. Usually, the strain sells for $7.91/g with tax and currently only comes in 15g jars of pre-milled flower. Be assured, this product is exceptional quality and like Sensi Star, knocks Tilray’s House Blends out of the park! There is really no comparison.

The mill is not shake either. These are partially ground buds, and I have to say I’m impressed with the consistent thickness in the layer of trichs among buds. I found more frost in my container than leaves or anything else – including stems, it’s 100% whole flower material ready for use. This is pretty much what imagined medical MJ to look like. Quality assured!

After struggling with the first few bottles, I have begun to learn techniques to open without inflicting horrible wrist pain. Still not easy though and it wouldn’t be a fun time for others with joint paints or those with arthritis. But as soon as that seal was removed, a wall of terpenes wafted in a lovely floral-citrus aroma. I mean it when I say the smell on its own is therapeutic. I also taste melon in the vapour, but sadly there isn’t any information on terpenes to make a real assessment, so I will say similar to Aurora’s Warwick 1(’91 K-OG) Melon strain.

The flush is also perfect, burns pure, like I’ve never seen before – see photo of the blanket of snow covering the end of my joint.

Seriously though. This is connoisseur cannabis. The smell, the look, the taste, and lasting effects are all solid and higher quality than anything IMO produced to date – I mean better then any weed I have ever had before, regardless of where I acquired it. I don’t know what they are doing over there but from a consumer standpoint (and judging by the intro video on their website), it sure seems intense.

Overall another exceptional strain! Bravo ABcann; you’ve got my attention, but there may be room for improvement on the packaging and labeling side. My suggestions: re-sealable, user-friendly packaging for patients with joint pains, etc., and to consider incorporating terpene profiles.

TL;DR – A delicious and thought-provoking experience. What a sneaky turkey too, with delayed gratification for the “patient” – as it is not always an immediate effect (beginners beware). However, this strain never fails to pack a powerful punch with distinct cerebral effects. It induced feelings of mindfulness, bringing me to a quiet and calming mindset that was both creative and intuitive. I am starting to think this company may pull ahead to take the lead if it can keep this up, setting the bar by exceeding standards and emphasizing the need for education.

Happy healing!

Jwadhd9 reviews Jack Herer by Tilray:

Tilray Jack Herer

Jack Herer a winner of the High Times Cannibis cup 1995. This strain after the author of The Emperor Wears No clothes and cannibis activist .

When I opened the package was a beautiful smell of pine, earthy and woody smelling bud. Large flowers that were sticky with a white coating of trichomes. Ground up nicely in my grinder and I was set to vaporize Jack for the first time. My first experience was complete relaxation and just over all sense of wellbeing. For me I need a little to help me relax from my long work week. I also find it helps in big social gatherings which can be daunting for me ! All I need is two hits off my vaporizer and I’m good for the evening

I will make a note for those who have anxiety to use caution when using this strain. I find if I smoke it more than two days in a row I find my anxiety attack will kick up. The only other side effects I noticed was I get dry mouth and red eyes but no major complaints about this strain.

For me Jack Herer is my glass of wine after a long work week.

Tea&Cannabis reviews Flores (Sugar Punch) by Broken Coast Cannabis:

So let me start by saying how glad I am to be back with Broken Coast as one of my suppliers!

Flores (Sugar Punch) is truly a beautiful strain to look at. My 10g containers was stuffed with golf ball sized buds. They are very well trimmed. It’s a shame I need to grind them up. I feel like I’m destroying art!

The smell of this strain reminds me of skittles or Sweet Tarts. I vaporized using my Plenty at level 6, then 7 a couple hours later. The taste is pretty much the same as the smell, like Skittles or Sweet Tarts. It’s very tasty and probably one of the top 5 tastiest strains I have experienced.

Now onto the effects and explain why this strain is appropriately named for reasons other than its sweet name. I just came off of a short cannabis break to reset my tolerance. I thought I would take it a little bit at a time to make sure nothing felt too crazy. I remember setting my vape down after a very short session. At that moment there was a small but friendly cerebral euphoria with some relaxation felt in the body. I thought this might be a good place to break and just see where this little buzz takes me. I remember walking through the kitchen and into my office to sit down at my desk and…. BAM!!! Sugar Punch hit me hard! I wouldn’t call it a creeper, more like a delayed response. I suddenly felt floaty as an intoxicating, distracting, euphoric wave rushed through me. I felt pretty happy and uplifted. Giggles came out easy as I tried to keep the stupid smile off my face, but I couldn’t stop smiling! I could see possibly being helpful for depression. The body feels relaxed. I think it helped with pain but I also feel as if I might have been more distracted from the pain. It’s complicated. All you need to know is that Sativa truly shines through here.

While the above effects are appealing I can certainly say this strain is not meant for a time where work needs to get done. Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING is distracting, but also enjoyable. I prefer to enjoy it at home because I look like a fool in public smiling and giggling at everything.

The only negative thing I would say about the strain is that if I accidentally vape too much I feel a strong headache about an hour after I stop vaping. It seems to last a while. I’m not sure if others experienced this. It could be just because I just took a break. In proper doses I don’t get a headache and the experience is still very enjoyable.
