Overall rating out of 10: 9/10
Sign Up: No signup. Email.
Ordering & Pricing: No ‘ordering’. Just email. Pricing is par for the quality. Mids, so it’s not the cheapest ditchweed pricing and it’s not the highest super flawless beloved hand trimmed enormous designer nug pricing either.
Communication: 100% five star perfect communication. I don’t actually think it’s possible to be better at it than Angela from Farmhard.
Packaging: Looks like regular mail and it smells like it too. Very mild stealth.
Products: I ordered 14 grams of Durban Poison, 7 of OG, and 7 of Blueberry. Farmhard usually sends a sample. A Farmhard sample will usually be more than one nugget, ranging between 2-3 grams. Angela sent me samples of Texada, Cali OG, and everything was overweight.
Incentive for Customers: Not only does Farmhard offer cannabis, but throughout the year, they offer other medical products such as teas and spices, and for a limited period they even offer clones plus instructional DVDs, so you could DIY.
Incentive for Review: I was already a customer, so this wasn’t incentivized. That did not stop Angela from sending me some extra weed due to a very minor hiccup in the ordering process... really, I'm not sure they need any excuse to throw in a gift, I've never received an order from them without a bonus.
Notes: After weighing it all up, I received around 8-9 extra grams.
While I would say this is Atypical for them generosity is par for the course with Farmhard, so if organic is your style and you’re okay without a storefront, rewards card, points, 50 options, and a partridge in a weed plant, then Farmhard is a good choice. I personally choose to order from them when I also want one of their other medicinal products. This time I ordered a large amount of Guayusa, a mildly caffeinated tea leaf which can easily be dropped into any hot beverage to give it an extra kick or brewed alone for a traditional South American social drink. It doesn’t give me the same crash that coffee provides, an interesting and legal stimulant with no real negative properties unless you dislike looseleaf tea, in which case, well, I don’t know what I can do for you.
Individual strains:
Durban Poison: 7.5/10
Known best for its noxious taste, this famous sativa is enjoyable with Farmhard’s organic standards bringing its foul taste to a sweet chemical sort of flavor that is much more tolerable than an ‘enhanced’ version. A sustaining high. Highly recommended for a wake and bake. Nuggets range on the smaller size.
Blueberry: 8/10
Flavorful in a berry manner, this is my favorite solely on flavor. Unlike the Durban it is best enjoyed at night due to a prominent relaxing effect. I like it a lot, and it was my favorite of the batch.
OG: 7.5/10
Unremarkable earthy citrus nose with poorly trimmed, thin nuggets. Not a showstopper by any stretch of the imagination. So it surprises me that it vaporizes with a taste of pepper, quite potent and flavorful. Very good. I grew quite attached to it over my period of using it. I know it’s just OG but it’s decent mids. It was a good ‘any time’ weed, really it didn’t matter if I grabbed it before bed or at the start of my workday. Relaxing and easy to fit in.
Cali OG: 6/10
Unremarkable nose that’s slightly peppery. Faint floral notes. Inoffensive vapor that reminds me of the floral Violator strain. Thin nuggets as well. Similar but not quite as good as the standard OG. I wouldn’t pass it up in a joint from a friend but I wouldn’t go out of my way to buy it if others were in stock.
Texada Timewarp: 8.5/10
By far the strongest of the batch, best used in a vaporizer and allowed to ‘preheat’ to really get the resin moving, a highly potent sativa with a strong tuti-fruity scent and in the vaporizer, had a gassy and bright flavor profile. I can work for hours with this. Wake and Bake strictly only or you will regret it! This is not a relaxing strain by any stretch of the imagination, once you work its power up in your blood you will probably warp through time to Texas.
This is only a sample but if I buy again this is the strain I would probably pick, and then either the OG or Blueberry. It’s a very clear minded high, uplifting and powerful.Overall: I order from Farmhard when I want one of their alternative healing products besides marijuana, however, I do enjoy it when I order and always get far more than I actually paid for as they are wonderfully generous.
I'd be inclined to re-order on most of these, except the Cali which just didn't speak to me. The Texada was great for the price (free, lol, it was a sample, but even as it is it's a low price!) Very honest and genuine sellers, you won't get an experience like this from everyone. It's simple and wholehearted, without the frills of bigger shopfronts.
