Review: Verano G-Line G Purps Flower

Image
  Hello and welcome to another review! I do hope you all had a great Memorial Day weekend and have a great week beyond it! Today's review is of another Verano product and one that has quickly become a favourite strain of mine, G Purps. This strain is an Indica dominant hybrid that comes from crossing G6 "Jet Fuel" with Purple Punch. This a great strain for medical users as well as recreational consumers.      As with most Verano flower their G-Line comes nicely sealed in a glass jar with a styro sela on the inside. Unlike their Private Stock line though, it does not come with a humidity packet. I strongly suggest you pop one in after opening it, as it will improve this already good flower. I do have to say, though, that I like that I have been getting a tic more flower with the Verano products than some others. It is sold as a 3.5 (1/8th oz), but they actually list it on the label, under "usable" as 3.65 grams. Either way, they are giving their customers a lagni

   Hello and welcome back to Crossroads Cannablog! It's been a busy week for me, so I've been a bit slack in getting this out. Mea Culpa Maximus! This edition will run a bit long, but everything is just so darned good! More content coming ASAP!           Cannabis Critique has another good review. This time he is reviewing the Love Triangle strain by Columbia Care in Illinois. Dan, at Dan's Buddha Bodega takes a look at Ha'tuh Pressed Hash by PTS. I must say that this stuff looks pretty darned good, but doesn't look like any I've ever had in the Middle East. Still, Dan's review makes me want to go have a try!   Chris, over at Cannabev , has yet another excellent review. This time he takes a look at Miami Punch, by Revolution Cannabis . Chris is a great reviewer and touches so many bases in his content. Take the time and watch his stuff, you will not be disappointed!   We're going to have a double header from Cannabis Critique , this time around, because

Review: Verano Private Stock: Mag Landrace Flower

Image
  I hope everyone is having a great weekend! Today's review is of another Verano product, Mag Landrace Flower, from their Private Stock line. I have become a real fan of Verano's products (as you can see by previous reviews) and have managed to pick up a few of their more excellent products lately. I chose the Mag Landrace on a whim, after some research into it and, I must say, that it was not a bad idea to get this one. I am primarily an Indica user, so this pure landrace variety was intriguing. How can you possibly say no to a strain that is as old and potent as this one? Well, I can't! And I have not regretted it, at all. This strain is worth a toke or two. And, if you're a medical user. there are some real benefits to this one.     As you can see, this batch came in at a nice 25.36% THC. That's pretty darned good in my book. I do wish that Verano, and the other companies would let us know the terpene profiles of their cannabis. That should be a prominent bit o

    Hi all! Sorry for the delay, but life happens. So, to make it up, today's posting is going to be a bit bigger than usual. And it won't be difficult, as it seems everyone is being very prolific this week! And the news out there on the cannabis front isn't all bad. It seems like everyone is talking about terpenes these days, and I can see why. They are what gives us great aroma, taste and effects in our cannabis. So, we'll be exploring that today, as well as in reviews and such. Let's get down to it, shall we? Bob's Bomb Buds takes a look at some Purple Urkle, a Sativa from Canada. This one looks quite nice! Tvape has a look at the Pax Era & Pax Pro vs 510 Threaded Batteries. Nice look at the two and kind of makes you hope they take the best of both and make a truly great battery!   Cannacentric Films gives us a review of Strawberry Kush from Rythm. I'll be honest, this sounds like a really strain for me! Cannabis Critique also has a good review of ano

      Hello! Happy Monday and welcome to a new week of Crossroads Cannablog. I've got a few very good links to some great content! I'm going to try some new formatting to aid in presenting things, let me know what you think!   TVape has their review/ranking of the Top 5 Best Oil Pens And 510 Batteries of 2021. These look really nice and have some great features, but we'll keep our eyes peeled for any new ones, as well, 2021 has barely begun.   The ever cheerful and always informative Cannabis Coach Haley has a review of Genius Pills from 1906 . These sound like a nice addition for daytime use!   Chris, from CannaBev , has a nice review of the Lava Cake strain from Aeriz, (an Illinois aeroponics grower). I have liked Aeriz's products when I have tried them. They do a good job when it comes to growing quality cannabis!     Welcome to the information section! Here I am posting content that...informs. How to's and news from the cannabis world! First up is another insta

    Greetings fellow consumers and welcome to the Saturday edition. I would have posted up the last few days, but life happened. So, today's post will be a bit bigger than usual to make up for it! Let's get started, shall we? First up, reviews by some of my favourite people! Bob, over at Bob's Bomb Buds , has another great review. This time it is a review of Sour Cookies, a Sativa dominant strain. Looks like it's great for anyone! And now for a review by Dan, over at Dan's Buddha Bodega . I really love listening to Dan's reviews. He amuses and informs me, all in one video! Here's his review for Layer Cake from Rythm/GTI. Cannacentric Films latest offering is a review of recurring buys. This time it is for Revolution s Cookie Dos. I know how he feels about recurring buys. G Purps and Bio Jesus do that for me. Potporn is back with a review of the Apple Fritter strain. Looks like a nice bud! It's Not A Drug, It's a Leaf hits us up with a hardware rev

Review: Verano Reserve Premium Cartridge - Wedding Cake (500mg)

Image
  Happy Hump Day and welcome to a new review! Today's review is of yet another of Verano's products from it's Reserve line. This is my first go 'round with a Verano cartridge and I must say that I was not disappointed! These Reserve products are a bit more expensive and, frankly, in most cases it's worth it but Verano is taking a real chance with these, especially given that Illinois prices are already higher than most places. Still, if you are looking for a nice quality cannabis product, Verano is not letting their customers down. As you can see this cartridges oil packs an impressive punch, coming in at a whopping 86.7% THC potency! Not a vape cartridge for beginners. I do wish they would include the terpene profile for this extract. It would definitely help out folks looking for specific effects.  One very minor drawback, in my opinion, is that the cartridge does not have a mouthpiece or bottom stopper, as many other brands do. I don't think there would be en
