Medical Marijuana: Super Bubba Kush
April 30th, 2007 by Alex
The ever-popular Kush strain is highly sought after and also highly available in Southern California. One of the more popular sub-strains of this eye-reddening varietal is Super Bubba Kush.
| theFreshScent Product Recap | |
|---|---|
| Strain | Super Bubba Kush |
| Type | Indica dominant |
| Pros | Great taste |
| Cons | Hard come-down |
| Price | $30/g, $80/8th |
| tFS Rating | 9.0/10 |
At first glance, the Super Bubba Kush catches your attention with its long hairs and crystal coating. The light green leaves, also doused with crystals, add to the dynamic look of this prize fighter.
Effects from this strain are powerful and heavy. The high starts in the face and spreads rapidly towards the rest of the body. Super Bubba puts in a solid day’s work with well over 2 hours of body-numbing effects. Unfortunately, the come down is harsh and abrupt, leaving you almost brain dead for a few hours afterwards.
Super Bubba Kush is an all around all-star bud, if you can afford it. One thing you get along with the VIP name and effects is the VIP price.
Make sure you clear your calendar accordingly after burning this strain and plan something to do that doesn’t require a lot of movement and/or thought.
Colombian Drug Cartel: Driver Wanted
April 25th, 2007 by Tim
Since we’re already on the subject, here is one more photoset of another large cocaine bust.
In Colombia, a place not known for its traffic safety, a ton of cocaine was discovered after the truck transporting it crashed. It must be a nice day for police officers to have 2,000+ pounds of coke just fall into your lap like that.
You know that heads were rolling in someone’s bodega after a screw up of that proportion.

Cocaine Seizure at Sea Makes History
April 25th, 2007 by Tim
The day of and the days leading up to 4/20 typically create their own bounty of both pro and anti-marijuana press. This weekend was, however, a definite change of pace.
Cocaine news flooded the airwaves when the largest bust in maritime history was discovered.
Off the shores of Panama, the Coast Guard discovered about ~30,000 pounds of cocaine heading north on a 330-foot ship. When officers boarded the ship, they discovered the shipments hidden in two containers. This bust alone had a street value close to $450 million.
Earlier in the month, two other sea-based busts took place. One where a Coast Guard cutter chased down a speedboat with 2,000 pounds worth of yeyo. Another when 900 pounds of coke was found on an Ecuadorian fishing vessel. They were caught trying to offload the goods onto speedboats off the coast of Mexico.
Overall, a bad weekend for Tony Montana and crew.

Estate LA: 4.20 Fitted Caps
April 25th, 2007 by Alex
I know we’re a little late to the party on this one, but it’s still worth mentioning. Strictly Fitteds tipped everyone off to these seasonal specials from Estate LA.
To quote SF’s original post:
ESTATE LA presents their 420 limited series fitted baseball caps in Sour Diesel and Kush flavors.
These will be available for purchase at 4:20 am on 4/20/07 on www.estatela.com and also at 4:20 pm at FITTED HAWAII (That’s 4:20 in their respective time zones folks). Only 52 pieces total were produced, so you know what to do.
Too bad we weren’t able to clue everyone in on this deal sooner, I’d love to see a pic of one of our readers with those on.
The timing is actually right on point with this drop, as both Sour Diesel and Kush have been making the heavy rounds these past few weeks.
Still I’m thinking both hats should be different shades of green, and maybe something like this come on the purple fitted.

Top 10 Stoner Moments in Movies
April 20th, 2007 by AlexThis subject is just too close to people’s hearts, and I’m just not ready to jump in with my own Top 10 Stoner Movies of all time.
Instead, we’ve decided to twist the script and bring you what is sure to be just as hotly a debated topic - The Top 10 Stoner Moments in Movies.
First, the ground rules - these moments don’t necessarily need to be pure comedy or come from a ‘Stoner Movie’ so to speak. Instead, they just need to involve marijuana usage and its accompanying subject matter.
So, what better way then to kick start this monumental debate than on 4/20? Let the game begin!
Bong Water: Forrest DwellersJust being in the movie Bong Water already gives this scene a boost, but it reflects on the NorthWestern culture blazing out in the woods and going for an adventure.

Juicy Blunts: Black and Blueberry
April 20th, 2007 by Tim
Creating hybrid flavors is a very challenging feat for most blunt manufacturers. Many attempts miss their mark and turn out resembling a botched science experiment. Not Juicy Jay’s. Their Black & Blueberry blunt wrap manages to successfully meld two distinct flavors.
| theFreshScent Product Recap | |
|---|---|
| Category | Blunts |
| Company | ZenSmoke |
| Made In | Dominican Republic |
| Pros | Spot-on scent |
| Cons | No flavor to smoke |
| Price | $1.00 |
| tFS Rating | 7.5/10 |
This particular wrap came with a rip from the factory, which is the first defective JB the tFS staff has ever encountered. The wraps themselves are fairly fragile, especially the thinner, gummed end. Remember to handle with care and don’t pass off the rolling duties to the guy with butterfingers.
When smoked, this blunt comes in smooth. It also burns with a nice blueberry scent that lingers in the air. A perfect compliment to the natural taste of the smoke. Like most Juicy Blunts, there isn’t any flavor added to the smoke itself, but the remaining aspects more than make up for this oversight.
Picking up a hybrid blunt wrap is often a gamble. The wager pays off with this Juicy Blunts selection.
