Compassionate Pain Management - LouisvilleBurmese Kush
You know when it's a kush, it's going to be good right, this one is great. Super potent, night time medicine. Dark green fairly dense buds that have an explosion of tropical orange hairs. What green can been seen is covered in sparkling crystals. The taste is just like the smell, berry fruity, a little mustty oundertone. Expands in the lungs and then goes right to the head before spreading back down through the body. Great for sore muscles and being able to hang out for a while berfore looking for a place to lay your head. Well worth the price.

Compassionate Pain Management - LouisvilleG-13
Classic, this is a really good example of the original "Gov't" bud. Looks beautiful, shades of green and bursting with crystals. Taste is sweet and distinct, but did not linger long. Energy off the bat, I was right out of my seat and became active and social. Proved a good choice to stay sharp for a day needed to get things done.

Compassionate Pain Management - LouisvilleFear the Dragon
Skunky & dark, with sweet undertones, ‘Red Dragon’ is an excellent hybrid flower that is truly exotic. If you close your eyes and take a whiff of this strain, you will think you are on a tropical island because it is smells of a ripe guava fruit. You feel the high THC content right away, heavy but not overdone. Great taste. Did wonders calming down the muscles in my back. Great price and great entry into this strain.

Strawberry FieldsHeavy fruit
I wish shishkaberry were a real fruit, as the taste and smell is so unbeleivable (not to mention the high). The flowers are beautiful dark and dense, definately a heavy bud, nicely cured. The blueberry that is part of the mix is ultra prevelent in the look and smell and the combo of that and the Afghani really come through in the effects. The taste is just like the smell, sweet, fruity and delicious. The smoke is smooth with great lung expansion. The high comes on quickly and hits pretty hard. End of the day buzz for me, but maybe good for a daytime activity too. The buzz hits the body pretty good and settles down the muscles nicely. I had not tried this before, but is is definately becoming a favorite

Lotus Medical - Boulderjuicy fruit
These are really nice flowers; dark, dense and just crawling with red hairs. The smell is skunky sweet. Burns nice and creates a thick white smoke that is smooth from inhale to exhale. Good lung expansion and maybe I just really wanted it to or maybe it really does, but there is a Juicy Fruit gum taste. You know the one that you get right away, not after 3.5 seconds when the taste is already gone. The high is really nice, comes right to the front of your head and stays there for a little while. After the initial high and mellowing of the next 45 minutes, I got pretty sleepy. This is great for insomnia and muscle aches. A really nice medicine.

Today's Health CareBlue Thunder
Another nice medicine from Today’s. Blue Thunder is a quality strain. Flowers are manicured nicely, dense and sticky. The taste and smell is skunky and sweet. The burn is really nice and leaves a light grey ash. The smoke hits nice, a little expansion and then exits with that nice skunky taste. The initial high comes on quick and mellow, but once you sit back, it keeps on coming. It is about 9:30 pm and this is just what I needed after a long week (and it’s only Wednesday!) The high is great. I usually look for a little more body buzz than this, but the Blue Thunder is serving it purpose; my back feels great and I am feeling good.

Bijou Wellness Centerawesome
Caligooey has just become one of my favorite strains. A distinct looking flower with darker green coloring, burnt orange hairs and just covered in crystals. The buds are super dense and spongy. The smell is sweet and pungent, definitely fruity too. The taste would be described the same way and lingers a bit in the back of the throat. The smoke goes in smooth, expands the hell out of your lungs and exhales with that sweet taste. It hits you right away, but not with that heavy Indica feel. Unlike the reviewer below, I love sativa’s and while this is a hybrid, it has those uplifting, social qualities; great for getting ready to go out. For $80 a quad, this stuff is a steal. Like I said a new favorite.

The Releaf Centerwatch out for the crowbar!
An awesome cross of lemon skunk and super silver haze this stuff is fantastic. The smell is fruity and pungent, but seemed to disperse quickly. Buds are nice and dense with hints of purple buried under all those wonderful crystals. The taste is great – dank and fruity with definite lemon notes. The smoke is smooth and expanding. This is reportedly 27% THC level weed, and man can you feel each and every percent! The high comes on smooth and just keeps climbing. I did not smoke that much and I am reeling. Watch out. Definitely an “I have nothing else to do for the day, break out the crowbar!”
Just awesome, definitely will cure what ails you or at least make you forget about it.

The Releaf CenterTrain Wreck
I didn't see this in the online menu, but picked some up this week. Really nice flower with a fantastic fruity candy smell. Nice dense flowers, great crystal development and nice red hairs. LIke I said the taste was awesome, like a tooty fruity candy stick that you had when you were a little kid. This medicine provides a nice mellow buzz, there is no rush to the head, just comes on slow and mellow and stays there. This would be a good place to start in the morning, as a little toke is easing up the tension, but allowing me to do what needs to be done in my life. 4 stars because if I wanted to really lay on a high, I would need to smoke a little more than I like. Another nice one from Releaf.

The FarmLayin' down the Diesel
I picked up some Sour Diesel today from the Farm in Boulder. I have had this a couple times before and love it. The Farms supply of it is top notch! The flowers are cured beautifully. Nice and dense, fully coated in crystals. Burns nice and produces a nice thick smoke that expands your lungs to the limits, but still exhales smooth. The taste is great, fruity, with that citrus/skunk undertone. A great high, energetic, but still pretty heavy, a perfect balance for getting stuff done, but in no particular order. A great example of the SD, and at $45/8 it should definitely go home with you.

Boulder Medical Marijuana DispensaryCheesus #4
Picked this up recently, really nice stuff. Dense and properly manicured. Nice orange/red hairs and covered in crystals with perfectly swollen heads. The smell was mild. Smoke was smooth, not a real lung expander, but it definately wanted out. it has a little skunky taste, but does not linger either on the inhale or exhale. The high creeps into your a head while at the same speed moving through the body. This should be just the stuff for my back after a long day working or playing. Great price. The staff was super friendly and helpful too.

Help, I can't see the bud, the crystals are in the way! Super smell, nice and sweet. Nice thick smoke with a great taste. Cured nicely, good complete burn to a light grey ash. Pretty quick rush to the head. Sets in really nice. A little bit dreamy. One of my favorites from Lotus. Great bud, great dispensary. A+ for both.

Lotus Medical - DenverHeadband
5 stars on the name alone! This is a really nice variety. The bud was trimmed perfectly, cut back just far enough to expose the fact that it is just totally covered in tiny crystals. Slightly dry (I have been sitting on it for a few days though), burns nicely. The tases is super distinct; not fruity, more on the dank, kind of musty side of things, but delicious. High comes on quick and stays there for quite a while. Relaxing, definately a stress releiver. Worth the price.

Natural Remedies MMJThe Quirkle Hammer
A pungent, fruity flower. Check out the pic above and look at the amazing crystal coverage, just like the sample I had, sugar coated goodness. The smoke was clear and smooth and the flower burned to a nice gray ash. A quick rush to the head that lasted a long time. The rush went right to the frontal lobe and lingered there throughout the buzz. This is a true indica with the "heavy" high and extreme body relaxation, great for muscle aches and spasms. At $55 an eighth, it is at the top of what I like to pay, but a small amount went a long way. 4 stars for me, as I stated it was heavy and a little too heavy for me to go with the 5.

Natural Remedies MMJtake me to the funhouse
The first thing you notice with Carnival is the mild fruity, almost earthy smell. The best part is, it tastes just like it smells. Buds are nice, not super dense, but not too airy either, long red hairs and crystal heads that are nice milkey white and ready to burst. Good lung expansion, but smooth, so no cough. Seems to be a nice high, high, very uplifting. A perfect day time medication with nice lasting effects.

Strawberry Fieldsnot like grandad's #1
Upon opening the jar, my first thought was that this #6 was pretty similar to the original #1, but after checking it out for a bit, it does have it's own characteristics. Great smell, not as pungent as the original, maybe a little more on the fruit and nut side. A really nice looking flower, with a pale green coloring and nice crystal and red hair development. The taste was superb and lingered in the throat. Smooth smoke and good lung expansion. The buzz was clean and uplifting, almost waking me up a bit, but chillin me out at the same time. A bit of creeper and definitely felt it in the body. Another great strain from Strawberry Fields.

Strawberry Fieldssit back
Like the description says, it tastes like grapefruit. Great citrusy aftertaste. Don't let the sweet taste full you though, the flower packs a nice dull wallup. Great for taking some time to relax a bit and perfect for a sunday or evening on the couch. Buds are nice and dense, not overly dense, but has that kind of moldable feeling. Nice color,good crystal development. Worth the price, and a nice one to keep on hand, but not an all the time / everyday variety for me.
