Hello again all,
The nice folks at GetKush reached out to me on the Discord after I was chatting with some people about some of their products they had received as a sampler, and offered to mail me a box of goodies. I’d like to thank them for giving me some stuff to try and review, I’m fairly new in this community so I was quite happy to be involved! The products I received were sent to me free of charge, for the purposes of this (unbiased and honest) review. Thanks GetKush!
The Goods:
1 gram of Juicy Fruit shatter, 3.5g of Red Congo (at my request, as this was the flower we were talking about in the chat), 3.5g Death Bubba, and 150mg worth of Faded Blue Raspberry gummies.
The Shatter:
They offer the in-house shatter for $30/g and at that price it’s a solid deal. It was quite potent, with a sativa-leaning hybrid high in my estimation. Flavours weren’t as on point however, as the shatter when heated has a pungent skunk and pine odour and taste that the other shatters I have had, at a higher price point, didn’t produce. There was some sweet, almost tropical citrus flavour and smell on the exhale, as is expected from the Juicy Fruit strain. The shatter also left a little more residue and reclaim in my banger than I’m used to. If you’re looking for a solid daily use hybrid for a competitive price, I wouldn’t hesitate to consider this product.
Flower:
I really, really enjoyed this stuff. The Red Congo was as advertised, a “get up and go” motivational daytime strain which had me cleaning all my glass with Orange Chronic 5 minutes after my first bowl. There wasn’t very much in the way of stand out flavour, as you’d expect for a landrace. Mostly woody and earthy. Effects were very noticeable and enjoyable, which I find more important than terps in a daytime strain.
The Death Bubba was even better. It kicked my ass on a nightly basis, taking away all muscle and joint ache and letting me fall into a peaceful sleep. This is definitely a major couch-lock strain not to be used if you have shit to do later. Very very dank pungent smell, but no real skunk taste on the palette. I often could feel the indica effects right after my first toke, and my eyes were blurry by the time I had finished the bowl. It burned quite white as well which prompted me to take a pic:
FYI that’s an 18mm bowl, there’s probably .8g in there)
The Gummies:
These I was a little disappointed with. I have had Faded shatter before and really enjoyed it, so I had high hopes for the edibles. Unfortunately, they still had a fairly moderate weed taste to them once the sour sugar was gone. Dosage seemed about right, given the effects they had on me and my girlfriend. If you’re looking for gummies that don’t have that weed aftertaste, the stuff from Cure Parlor I’ve found to be a bit better.
All in all, I will be buying from these guys when I need to re-up on flower, as I miss the Death Bubba already. Definitely check them out if you’re looking for a new MoM to try out.
Cheers everyone,
Cheese
