Posted: Tue Nov 20, 2018 8:27 pm
The perks for me: I received this package completely free to me, to review. I consider this a commitment to honesty. You may consider it a bias. Apart from writing this review I have no affiliation with this company.
The perks for you: Spinning "random" coupon wheel. Free shipping on purchases over $150. I have a referral code but the site doesn’t specify if using that code will get you, the new buyer, a discount.
Packaging: Scent free until opening the vacuum sealed bag. Normally not worth commenting on the exterior, but the bubble mailer used is thin and I could easily identify the contents by feel or holding it up to a sufficient light source. All you need to save this is a strip of bubble wrap/cardboard on the inside between the vacuum packing and the outer mailer so it’s no longer palatable or one more bag layer, an opaque bag with a little air in it.
In stark contrast, the grams themselves are packaged in some of the nicest MOM packages I’ve ever encountered, opaque save the bud window, and almost pearly. They are nice to touch and downright professionally designed. My pro designer bestie admired them too. Used to seeing zippies around here, not custom printed baggies. One note, the back says buyweedonline.shop and they are in fact buyweedonlineshop.ca. Recommend purchasing that domain if .shop domains exist (they probably do) and rerouting to the main site.
The buds: All grams weighed at least .10 overweight, the best being one single 1.39 super dense nugget of me wanna (that was the Haze). All ranked on the MOH's hardness scale for firmness. (jk)
All strain flavor experiences from a desktop vaporizer except for the specified use of pipe to test burn quality.
Extreme Haze: It doesn't smell unpleasant to me like some reviewers have said but it’s definitely a classic Haze aroma and I’ve used a lot of Haze variations, so I was prepared for its olfactory assault. It does have a real chemical kind of spicy smell, a bit of pineapple and earthiness in there as well. Like I would describe it as how I think artificial marijuana flavoring extract would taste. It's NOT the nicest flavor profile. Totally a normal Haze though. My mouth tastes a bit like I've been vaping Windex.
It’s super potent. I think there’s some marijuana underneath the trichomes. One SMALL bowl surged me into a very energetic head high, one in which I could physically crush any chores, party forever, bake several cakes, paint the basement and wash the car. As long as you don’t mind your mouth tasting like burnt styrofoam, I recommend Extreme Haze for the sativa lovers. Do not take before bed. I repeat, do not take this strain if you are trying to relax! Also if you are prone to anxiety.
Leave directions for yourself before using it, I had a second bowl and then I accidentally spent like three hours binge reading a Wiki, made a new friend, wrote most of this review (the non-strain parts) and the dishes appear to be done now…
Smokes down to white ash and the smoke is smooth.
10/10 AAAA Haze but if you’re not prepared for how a Haze tastes you may not enjoy it.
Zeus OG: Silky smooth, delicious creamy flavor. It reminds me of almonds and cream. If this is what Zeus tasted like, no wonder he had so many children. It is less intense of a high, bright and very focused. A good daytime pain reliever that wouldn’t be dangerous before bed. The flavor is worth sitting with, enjoying in the mouth, no odd negatives or need for snacks to cover up weird notes. I believe almost everyone would enjoy this strain for its balanced effects and delicate flavor. Smooth in the lungs. Delicious sativa option that will go down very smoothly for anyone offended by any of the odder tasting strains out there. I highly recommend, this is a truly sweet strain.
Popped a bit in the pipe and it burnt to white ash and smoke was smooth and comfortable in the lungs. The smoked option brought out more of its sweet citrus notes. This one was the best smoke out of the set, as it took the ‘cherry’ and maintained a smooth burn through the bowl.
10/10 AAAA.
Nuken God: It is like inhaling a breath of freshly cut grass. Very much that traditional “grass” smell and taste. It is harsher in the lungs, hangs out a bit rougher than the previous strain. Extremely easy to zone into the high. This makes me feel happy, excited, energetic, talkative and ready to take on life. I feel happy and immediately that happy starts waking up into full on joy, taking over my brain. I see a cute puppy and I burst into tears because of how incredible life is. This is the closest anyone can ever get to inhaling a crisp spring day, the proof that life has conquered death and humanity endures! The buds are a bit on the dry side. Vapes nicely when ground fine. Burnt all right, but also burned black and tasted unpleasant in the pipe. Recommend only for vaporizing.
AAA. 9/10
Blue Cheese: Normally I just sample samples alone, but my bestie was feeling tired but not sleepy (you know?) and I knew this was a solid indica so I shared it with her. One bowl left her feeling relaxed but not couch locked, and her head no longer rushing too much to sleep. We agreed it tasted like blue cheese a bit. It reminded me of notes from Blue Dream, but I’ve never had a pure Cheese so I can’t say. It TASTED like actual cheesy creamyness in the inhale, leaving a complex trail in its wake. Very relaxing, did not destroy me with just one bowl but left me chill and no longer stressed about any life things that were stressing me. Great option for depression, pain relief, kicking back on the couch. If you go easy on this one/have a high tolerance, you might be able to use it in the day, but I suspect a few bowls will lock you in, so play careful.
The buds are loose, sticky fresh. I don’t think they’re worth the price listed on the site because the quality of the individual buds just isn’t perfect and I’m not an indica lover, but I’d buy it with a discount code. Taste and overall effects fabulous.
I popped a bit into my pipe and it burned white.
Great strain. 8/10 AAA.
Pink Rockstar: I personally think it tastes overpowering, bitter and pungent. The site describes it as “saltiness”… yeah… it’s… it’s something.
Still, in the vape it’s smooth. The cure on it is nice. I popped some into my pipe and the smoke was smooth but burned mostly black. I taste nothing of the Rock Star phenotype and while I’ve only tried a Pink once it doesn’t taste much like that either. The high is fabulous, don’t get me wrong, a single bowl in the vape and a little bit in the pipe has me relaxed and cerebrally high all at once and it’s a great time. That said, I don’t believe this cannabis was properly flushed. I know this pisses some people off and honestly, it tastes like crap to me but I have respect for the high. It will lock you to the couch. I wouldn’t recommend it for smokers, only for vapers. This was my least favourite out of the bunch but it could be someone else’s favorite (for example, MirkaLane enjoyed this strain the best. Note: they only vaporize.).
6/10 AAA.
The site:
Freakin sweet website includes SPINNING 3D CANNABIS NUGGETS. The header doesn’t follow you around, but the shop basket does and so does a contact option (which doesn’t make any noise, it’s just there). Those are reasonable sticky options so I don’t mind it. Plus, it links to Weedmaps instead of just suggesting it as a review option. I appreciate those aspects of the user experience.
With the exception of the very large header being present in the shop section of the page the site is great. I would like to see the second section of the header (order anywhere/discreet packaging/free shipping) only present on the main page, not on the page of the products. Ideally, the logo would shrink into the menu bar, presenting the product options immediately above the fold.
There is no register button. In order to register without purchasing, I had to fail a login, which then took me to a page where I could register. There is a newspaper sign up link in the footer area.
On your first visit to the site, you will be greeted by a coupon wheel which will get you a discount code. I was cheated out of my code and reported this bug. It has since been repaired and I was given a superior discount code for future use.
In closing:
There is an extensive selection of cannabis flower available right now. BWOS doesn’t carry a wide selection of concentrates or edibles, though in the future I would like to try their Brindle Farms live resin. Of this particular set, I would re-order Zeus, but there are so many other flowers I WISH I could try from their selection I don’t think I would reorder most of the others from this specific set. Just scrolling through the store is a painful experience of resisting the urge to buy like 15 more cannabises, precious.
I would order freely if you vaporize, but tread carefully if you smoke and have concerns about flushed product. I vaporize 95% of the time and will consider ordering flower from buyweedonlineshop in the future.
Thanks to their team for providing the cannabis free for my review.
