We are going to balance things out a bit. The last review was a positive one, this one, not so much.


Now here in Seattle, the NW Cannabis Market is known to house some of the original talent and expertise that helped devise this new landscape for both recreational, and medical marijuana here in Washington state.


It’s definitely worth your time to visit the market if you’re an authorized Washington MMJ patient, just for the experience alone.


If you know your vendors well, most times, you know what to expect; but not always.


The marketing and retail laws that apply to MMJ are much different than those that exist for recreational.


For example, sampling cannabis is much, much easier with the medical outlets. You can touch, see, smell and feel the buds.


With the I-502 stores, you get to do virtually none of the above. You’ll be lucky with what you can see and smell through the packaging.


I’ll have articles in the future going into more detail about the differences between recreational and medical marijuana.


But for now, back to the review at hand.  


In simple terms; quite a disappointment.


This was a quick impulse buy, based on mostly smell and density, and I should’ve inspected this bud a little closer before purchase.


Clear-ish trichromes indicate this bud may have been harvested just a bit too soon. The nutes seem to have been flushed, and the overall flavor is favorable, but the high is not.


If it was an early harvest, it probably wasn’t on purpose. Many times an early harvest can be needed to save the batch from a complete loss.


The high is weak, but immediate. No creeper effect.


Gives you a moderate body high, with very little psychoactive goodness going on.


Can’t recommend this one; but stay tuned, I’ll be back soon with one that I do!

Thanks again for stopping by!
