Review: AU Dragonfly Vega Nutter Butter Pre-Rolls 5 Pack (3.5 G)

Image
        Greetings and welcome back! Today we have a review of Dragonfly's 3.5 gram pre-roll pack of the Nutter Butter strain. Nutter Butter is a cross of C435 or the Grateful Breath strain (info varies) and Peanut Butter Breath. Each pre-roll should contain .7 grams of whole flower. Now, the boxing of this is very nice. Good, strong cardboard and it is not difficult to open. The joints are all about 1.5-1.75" (smokeable section) and are not too tightly packed, (something other manufacturers should pay attention to). They draw easily, as they should and burn fairly evenly. The aroma of the pre-rolls, in my pack, was a bit floral with some fruity and earthy notes. The smoke, all the way to the end, was smooth and flavourful. There was a definite diesel taste to it, but not in any unpleasant way. It was tasty!  The high with this one comes on hard and fast. It is not a creeper, by any means. It starts in the head with a nice euphoric lift and then hits your body. Pain and anxiet

  Hi all! Happy Thanksgiving week! Just a couple of quick items for you. One that addresses using Omega-3 supplements to combat tolerance issues and one that tells it like it is when it comes to why many lower THC strains are actually better than high THC strains. They both make for good reads! Do Omega-3 Supplements Lower Cannabis Tolerance? Why THC Percentage Isn't All That Matters! Back with more soon!

Review: AU Motor Cake Pre-Roll 5 pack (1.75 g) (Michigan)

Image
      Hello, everyone and welcome to another review! This time around our cannabis product is a 5 pack of Motor Cake pre-rolls from Common Citizen , a Michigan grower. They total 1.75 grams and each swift is .35 grams. The THC content is a nice 20.43%! The primary terpenes in this strain are Limonene and Linalool, and others at lesser degrees, but these two are the standouts and you can smell them and taste them. Now, a lot of folks would take a pass on these shorties, but I'm not one of them. This small pack cost a whopping $18 and only had two taxes (sales and adult use) that totaled 16%. The dispensary also handed me a $10 discount on my order (pretax!). So, I got almost 2 grams of this for $18! That's a good deal and let's me try out more strains to suit my needs, rather than commit to larger amounts that might not be what I need. These are perfect for that!     Now, Motor Cake was completely new to me. It's an Indica dominant hybrid cross of Motor Breath and Wedd

    Hey, everyone, and welcome to another Crossroads Cannablog! Seems like everyone has been super busy and I'm happy to share their excellent content with you, again. And don't forget to like, subscribe and comment at their channels! And ours! Shall we start with the reviews? We do have a few to get through and folks chose some killer strains to share with you this time around!     First up are a pair of reviews from Bob's Bomb Buds . Now, "Bob" is in Canada, but cannabis strains know no borders these days. The Skywalker OG review is great and Skywalker can be found many places down here! Island Pink Kush , though, is one I have yet to see, but I am looking forward to it! It sounds entirely consumable!   Cannacentric Films has another great review online. This go around it is OZ Kush BX2 from Bedford Grow . Lots of genetics info, as usual and a good look at an Illinois weed you might need!   Cannabis Critique went out and got some Mint Cake from Cresco Labs

Review: Cresco Labs Green Line OG (Hybrid)

Image
  Hello and welcome to another review! Today's review is of Green Line OG flower from Cresco Labs . This came from an Illinois dispensary a bit ago and It's gotten some use, from me. This flower is from Cresco's Refresh Line, indicating that it is a Hybrid strain. Green Line is a 50/50 strain of Indica and Sativa but, in my opinion, it leans a bit more to the Sativa side. This is a great strain for medical use, as it is a fairly potent painkiller. It has no sedative effects, so my suggestion is to use this one as a daytime smoke. You can get stuff done!  This batch of GLOG came in at 23.6% THC. Depending on the batch and the grower you can certainly find it at lower or higher concentrations of THC. And, as you can see from the nicely informative label, the primary terpenes in this one are Cymene and Limonene, that made for a kind of nice taste.   The buds were nicely frosted with trichomes, outside and in. They were a bit dry, as I have come to expect from Cresco's flo

Some Weekend Reviewing: Good News Disposable Vape Pens

Image
Hello and welcome to another review! Today's review is of the Good News Me Time and Friyay 300mg disposable vape pens. Good News is yet another of Cresco Labs labels. These highly popular vape pens are available in Illinois and in Michigan, (and probably other markets where Cresco has a presence). Frankly, these vape pens are a good value in most places. In Illinois they run around $35-40 and in Michigan they run in the $20-25 range. Needless to say, it's worthwhile to pick up a couple or a few, if you're in Michigan. These are both top notch products and the fact that both routinely sell out at dispensaries (especially the Friyay) speaks to their popularity. There's a reason for that, too! Folks that use these know they're getting a good product. So, on to the Me Time. The blue Me Time vape is an Indica dominant vape. The aroma, if you take a whiff from the opening, is fruity and a bit reminiscent of bubblegum. The taste is also very nice and smooth with a fruiti

  Hello and welcome to another Crossroads Cannablog! In today's issue we have a few great reviews, some amusing unboxing, news and more! If you like what you see, please feel free to subscribe, comment and share! Doc, over at Weed Entertainment , takes a look at White Bubblegum Gelato hybrid strain from Backpack Boyz out on the West Coast. This is a really nice looking strain! He likes Sativa style flower (euphoric and energizing) and this hybrid looks like it fits the bill! Cannabis Critique beat me to the punch with his review of Cresco 's Green Line OG. I'll be posting my review on this strain very soon but, until then, watch this for a look at  a nice hybrid flower from Cresco.   Cannacentric Films has another great review and this time it is Cresco 's Lime Skunk flower. This is a Sativa from Cresco's Rise line of flower. This review is really an informative look at Lime Skunk. I've had one of their Skunk lines and it was very nice, even though I prefer In

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
