Medical Marijuana: Rowdy OG Kush

Today we’re reviewing Rowdy OG Kush.
If you just follow naming conventions when picking up strains, you might figure anything x OG Kush = amazing bud. That’s what I was hoping too, but straight away it was obvious something was rotten in Denmark.
The first indicators were smell and looks. This is a really, really dark bud that felt unusually dry. Anyone who smokes Kush knows ‘that’ smell. It’s the aroma all of us love. Rowdy OG just didn’t have it… no distinct, pungent smell that says, “Hope you’ve got nothing planned buddy.”
It appears as though this batch wasn’t cured correctly. While smoking, it again lacked the classic Kush taste. Instead, you got a chlorophyl aftertaste, which isn’t a great sign. Rowdy still tastes solid, but not as scrumptious as it should have.
Highness on this is strain is also solid (catching the trend yet?), which helped contribute to the 7 rating. It starts in the shoulder area and radiates from there, lasting anywhere between 1.5 to 2 hours.
Let’s hope this was an off batch, which is highly likely. Next time Rowdy is spotted at any local dispensaries, let us know. We definitely want to do a follow-up on this bud and see if this Kush variant can redeem its name.
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.
Medical Marijuana: White Widow
March 23rd, 2007 by Alex
White Widow is one of the most famous cannabis strains in the modern era. I have only come across this strain twice and both times it has really done the job. This indica and sativa hybrid is a great all around bud that gets you lifted quickly and heavily.
| theFreshScent Product Recap | |
|---|---|
| Strain | White Widow |
| Type | Indica/Sativa hybrid |
| Pros | Many large crystals |
| Cons | Not more like it |
| Price | $25/g, $70/8th |
| tFS Rating | 9.0/10 |
The effects from this top-quality herb are extreme. The buzz is powerful and energetic, yet social, leaving you feeling somewhat energized. The taste is divine and very sweet. A must for anyone who thinks they are a true strain connoisseur!
Most people automatically assume that kush’s are the best strains around, but beware of the mighty White Widow. A mid-priced bud that is sure to hit the spot and then some.
Medical Marijuana: Mango
March 20th, 2007 by Tim
Most dispensaries tend to have high-profile buds like a trainwreck or kush variant alongside some very random strains. Today, its the lesser known strain that gets the spotlight and it goes by the simple-yet-descriptive name of Mango.
| theFreshScent Product Recap | |
|---|---|
| Strain | Mango |
| Type | Indica hybrid |
| Pros | Large, thick buds |
| Cons | Dull coloring |
| Price | $20/g, $60/8th |
| tFS Rating | 7.5/10 |
As expected, the taste follows the constant theme of this mango bud. It’s extremely fruity and the smoke any hint of harshness or a nasty afterbite. The high hits the body quickly remaining for around 2 hours. On the positive side, the effects aren’t overpowering to the point where you can’t function after smoking.
This hybrid of indica’s is a great experience with its big rich colorful buds and is sure to make and keep you satisfied. Dispensaries always seem to have random strains, however, this one is a diamond in the rough.
Medical Marijuana: Hash Plant
March 7th, 2007 by Tim
Looking for a no non-sense herb without the frills? Hash Plant is one of those indeed, lacking just about everything besides the stone.
| theFreshScent Product Recap | |
|---|---|
| Strain | Hash Plant |
| Type | Indica dominant |
| Pros | Good body high |
| Cons | Over-priced, bad taste |
| Price | $20/g, $65/8th |
| tFS Rating | 6.0/10 |
The earthy flavor of the smoke left something to be desired, a taste similar to chlorophyll (a likely symptom of improper curing.) A good aspect about Hash Plant is its very resinous nature, so you know the end result will be just fine. The high is very nice. It starts in the chest area and gradually works its way up north. The stone lasts for around two to three hours.
If you don’t like all that glitz and glamor with rock star buds like kush, then Hash Plant might be right for you. Although it’s over-priced, doesn’t taste very good, and is kind of malodorous; it tries to compensate in the effects department and does so admirably. Honestly, if you spend an extra five bucks, you can get a bud that excels in all departments. Spend the extra five bucks.
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.
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.
