Medical Marijuana: Master Kush
March 5th, 2007 by Alex
Well, this is a definite first for tFS. The rating and name speaks for itself. Master Kush, an indica strain, is the best medical marijuana money can buy.
| theFreshScent Product Recap | |
|---|---|
| Strain | Master Kush |
| Type | Indica dominant |
| Pros | Strongest high |
| Cons | Expensive |
| Price | $30/g, $80/8th |
| tFS Rating | 10.0/10 |
In addition, the smoke has a sweet zip to it and doesn’t leave a bad aftertaste in the mouth. The high hits hard & quickly from the beginning, mostly starting in the head and moving its way throughout in a matter of minutes.
There aren’t many significant negatives that stand out other than the fact that it can be too intense at times. Yes, too intense. And this 10 out of 10 kush strain is not cheap by any means, but hey if you can afford it, saddle up cowboy! You will not be disappointed.
Medical Marijuana: True OG Kush
March 1st, 2007 by Ryan
True OG Kush is one of the “ultimate” kush strains found in sunny Southern California. Very few other strains seem to compare to True OG’s unique scent, taste, and mental & physical effects.
| theFreshScent Product Recap | |
|---|---|
| Strain | True OG Kush |
| Type | Indica dominant |
| Pros | Intense high |
| Cons | Long recovery |
| Price | $30/g, $80/8th |
| tFS Rating | 9.5/10 |
When smoked, the first shock wave hits hard. It doesn’t take long to realize that you’re already feeling its effects from just one or two hits. This bud is for real. A few hits of this True OG and the effects are long-lasting and intense, but beware that the recovery period from this is heavy. This bud is more of a late night adventure than a midday smoke break.
This strain is no joke, seriously. If you want the cream of the crop in the kush realm, here it is. Come to think of it, True OG should come with a warning label about inducing an extreme level of munchie impulses.
Chef Boyarweed: Dank Brownies
February 28th, 2007 by Alex
While checking out the edibles at my local dispensary, I decided to pick up Chef Boyarweed’s Dank Brownie and it made my night turn out especially relaxing.
| theFreshScent Product Recap | |
|---|---|
| Category | Medicinal Edible |
| Company | Chef Boyarweed |
| Pros | Long lasting |
| Cons | Taste |
| Price | $10.00 |
| tFS Rating | 8.0/10 |
The smell doesn’t signal any potency within. Unfortunately, when eating this little delectable, it doesn’t provide the best chocolate flavor… largely due to the sizable amounts of marijuana mixed in (which you will definitely notice). Just wash it down with a glass of milk and you’ll be good to go.
One thing I wish was on the packaging was the amount of bud used in the recipe and also the strain type. Still, it is well worth the $10 price tag. Overall, a great edible that doesn’t break your wallet and leave you asking, “That’s it?”
If it works for you as it did for me, you’ll be looking to increase your brownie budget.
Medical Marijuana: Misty Haze
February 27th, 2007 by Ryan
Misty Haze is a sativa strain that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg yet provides a nice, quick high. A great break from the low range buds ranging to the super intense buds.
| theFreshScent Product Recap | |
|---|---|
| Strain | Misty Haze |
| Type | Sativa Dominant |
| Pros | Very underestimated |
| Cons | Short lasting high |
| Price | $20/g, $60/8th |
| tFS Rating | 7.0/10 |
The high hits your face & head area hard and very quickly, lasting for about 30 to 40 minutes. After that, it mellows out to almost nothing within the next 20 minutes - some might call it a rollercoaster ride. Overall, this haze variant doesn’t have the longest lasting high but make sure not to underestimate it.
When you take everything into consideration, this strain is a very decent bud for the level of highness and the price tag attached to it. You probably won’t come across this variety too often, but if you do, make sure not to look away too quickly.
Concentr8 Dumb Drops: Lemon
February 26th, 2007 by Alex
To start this week off with something a little different, I’m reviewing Concentr8’s Dumb Drops in Lemon flavor.
Edibles are always a challenge to review because their effects are so subjective - how big you are, what you’ve eaten and if you drink any alcohol all massively alter the effectiveness of THC being delivered to the body through the GI tract.
| theFreshScent Product Recap | |
|---|---|
| Category | Medicinal Edible |
| Company | Concentr8 |
| Pros | Powerful edible |
| Cons | Bitter taste |
| Price | $20.00 |
| tFS Rating | 8.5/10 |
Both the smell and taste are relatively subtle with this edible. It’s got a light, sugary smell with undertones of hash. As you can see from the picture, this little ball of sugar packs a punch. Depending on your luck, you can get up to .8 a gram of hash in each one.
The Dumbdrops are extremely chewy and it takes a while to get the whole thing down. The more you chew, the more you start to taste the bitterness of the hash, which isn’t entirely pleasant.
These gumdrops creep up on you, with the first of the effects being felt around 25 minutes after taking the lemon drop. It’s hard to describe the exact feeling, but if you’ve taken an edible you know how it affects your body and spreads from there. This is one of the strongest edibles I’ve come across and it definitely puts you in your seat.
For the cost of $20 a pop, this is a great deal. An edible that you can rely on is a nice change of pace and Concentr8 has created something that’s worth the cash.
Cherry Lemon Lime Soda
February 23rd, 2007 by Tim
Medicinal beverages are growing in popularity at local dispensaries. Today, I’m reviewing Cherry Lemon Lime Soda.
| theFreshScent Product Recap | |
|---|---|
| Category | Medicinal Beverage |
| Company | Generic |
| Pros | Good taste |
| Cons | Subtle effects |
| Price | $25.00 |
| tFS Rating | 6.0/10 |
The aftertaste is where the regular soda characteristics end, as you can distinctly taste the thin film that coats the surface of your mouth. And that coating reminds you, “Hey, I’m having a weed drink.” Cool. Thanks weed drink.
As for the carbonation, there wasn’t enough of it, and that’s a big minus. I want my soda bubbly. Like my buddy Alex said with his Strawberry Soda review:
These beverages are for medicinal use only and enable patients who are unable to smoke or in situations where it is inappropriate to smoke the ability to stay medicated. The soda takes anywhere from 45 minutes to 1½ hours to settle in. Depending on your body size/weight and if you’ve eaten recently, the effects can vary, but generally involve a subtle body high that lasts for a couple of hours.
If you get a chance to try it out, I would, but don’t get more than one. Not enough pick-me-up for the price.
Medical Marijuana: Hawaiian Sativa
February 22nd, 2007 by Ryan
Hawaiian Sativa is something that looks like it just unloaded off a plane from Hawaii. A nice, plump piece of the big island!
| theFreshScent Product Recap | |
|---|---|
| Strain | Hawaiian Sativa |
| Type | Sativa dominant |
| Pros | Peaceful high |
| Cons | High could be stronger |
| Price | $20/g, $60/8th |
| tFS Rating | 7.5/10 |
The high isn’t as long lasting as you would hope for, but it does give you a great peaceful feeling for about an hour. Sure does help after a long day of work. Overall, it doesn’t pack the biggest punch but it does what is needed for a nice, relaxing evening.
This is one of those random strains you come across once in awhile, not living in the Hawaiian islands, this is relatively an inexpensive buy. A good looking, great tasting, and nice smelling bud that could use a little more kick.
Medical Marijuana: Super Silver Kush
February 20th, 2007 by Alex
From the land of indicas comes a great strain called Super Silver Kush. A great indica bud that packs an above-average performance for a mid-range price.
| theFreshScent Product Recap | |
|---|---|
| Strain | Super Silver Kush |
| Type | Indica dominant |
| Pros | Medium head high to relaxing body high |
| Cons | Weak taste |
| Price | $25/g, $70/8th |
| tFS Rating | 7.5/10 |
Effects from this indica kush start at the upper body region and quickly move to the rest of the body. It has a nice relaxing high to it after ~30 minutes. Blazed, I fully recommend checking out some art! The high lasts an average time, just under two hours, but is a great all-around feeling without a harsh come down.
Overall, this is just a good kush from California that isn’t too heavy on the pockets.
