General Notes:
To their credit, SpeedGreens provided me with some primetime 1g+ sample buds for photography purposes, and as such I won’t really comment on bud size past here… suffice it to say, they were all juicy!
. Each bud was both excellently trimmed and cured, with varying degrees of tackiness.
L.A. O.G.: Indica (AAAA)
This marks my first experience with L.A. O.G., and I must say, this bud has a highly appealing stink! It smells like a combination of fresh pine, magical forest musk, and aged cheese. In the vaporizer, the terpene profile comes off as piney and refreshing to my palette, though I doubt it is
literally refreshing my foul breath, it just
feels like it is, and that’s good enough.
The vapor stayed quite smooth and I found that it didn’t axe-murder my throat, or send me into a tuberculosis-level coughing fit. The bud itself was a work of art to behold--like a Jackson Pollock painting re-imagined as cannabis; just a load of colour and frosting to this dense beauty. The effects off of a 0.2g bowl were surprisingly dramatic, I found myself very relaxed and quite intoxicated without being tired or couch locked. It comes on quite strong, then tapers back to the more manageable level of “very stoned” after twenty minutes or so. Great stress reliever or after work-type bud! I had a fling with the L.A. O.G.--I found the effects potent, therapeutic, and long-lasting, and I have to agree with SpeedGreen’s AAAA letter grade.
My Rating: 5/5
Gorilla Glue #4: Indica-Dominant Hybrid (AAAA)
O-M-G, yep, this is quad GG#4 without a doubt, and another colourful specimen. I didn’t even want to put it in the grinder for fear of gumming it up like a tar pit, the tackiness is out of control. I think I could chuck this bud at a wall and it would stick, no problem. This particular bud es muy gordo (is very fat) and very dense, and because of the stickiness, might present a challenge to joint rollers. The aroma of SpeedGreen’s GG#4 is intoxicating--it’s a gorgeous, strong, piney/peppery-type deal, and I found myself shoving this one up my nose as well. Vapour is very dense and flavourful without being overpowering and I actually found it quite smooth for the potency. For those who know it, GG#4 is a bloody intense body stone, and I probably wouldn’t set my cannabis newbie friends sailing their first voyage on this yacht. For fanboys/girls of GG#4, this is top-tier, full quad, and you can expect a lot of potency here--trichomes are milky, might even be some amber in there, and the buds are RIPE. Fantastic weed, ‘nuff said.
My Rating: 5/5
Amnesia Lemon Kush: Hybrid (AAAA)
Amnesia Lemon Kush is purportedly a balanced hybrid, and it seems to have that happy, orangey appeal that some balanced hybrids present. I have to say, this is the single most complex and cool looking bud I have ever been in possession of. I’m not sure if this is what is defined as a “crown bud,” but it has nodes or bud tips jutting out at all angles, and is highly dense. Whoever was in charge of this grow is my new personal hero--identify yourself hero, so that I may exalt you! I didn’t want to vaporize it, it was too damn pristine, but alas, vaporized it was.
The ALK has a strong, sour smell to it that is very similar to haze strains. The terpene profile of both the bud aroma and the vapour flavour is potent and delicious! This is the best smelling and tasting bud that I tried among SpeedGreens strains, and I think I want more. The vapour that ALK produces is dense and long lasting--a 0.2g bowl in the vaporizer went well over one session in the Solo II.
A word on potency: I sampled the ALK only a short time after the GG#4, and my head felt doubly stoned, so there must be a great deal of potency in the ALK, to have stepped up on the GG#4! Actually, these two together made for a crazy good hybrid stone, I was high for a long, long-time.
This is my favourite of all the strains I tried at SpeedGreens, and it was a damn hard choice.
My Rating: Easy 5/5!
Blueberry Nuken Honeycomb Budder: Indica-Dominant Hybrid (AAAA)
Save the best for last, as they say, but in this case it was hard to do. This budder has a gorgeous stinky appeal that reminds me of a big-ol-bag of UK Cheese or something--it is highly pungent for a concentrate, and just I want to eat it (I did)! It has a nice terpene profile when dabbed--admittedly, I probably dab a bit too hot, so there is likely more flavour than I picked up on--but I found it just has a
nice flavour, not exceptional, and doesn’t have that overwhelming flavour punch that leaves you drooling on the floor (just me?). Dabbing was super smooth, not a hiccup. The appearance is a classic golden/blonde honeycomb budder--it has a perfect consistency, it is easy to work with and to dab, and will tame the savage beast. The high is very relaxing; I had a headache when I started hitting dabs and it was gone after two, so it is certainly a pain/pressure reliever. I found this budder slightly more potent than the AAAA Jack Herer shatter, that I reviewed in part I. I was feeling the effects of a couple of smallish dabs for… how long I don’t know, because I was too stoned. I can’t afford to buy top-tier concentrates often, so I may not be the best judge of their potency, but I would happily pay $29/g for this again. If you are a concentrates user, and you like budder, you should give SpeedGreen’s a look, I think there are some great deals to be had on some exceptional (for the price) budders.
My Rating: 5/5 (Can’t find a fault here, excellent value!)
