It’s warming up. The times are getting longer. The seasonal melancholy is fading. Spring is right here, let’s unfold a lil’ sunshine, sure?
As we gear up for one more season of occasions and seshes throughout the nation, and put together to ring in our favourite vacation with extra locations to legally rejoice than ever earlier than, bear in mind we’ve all obtained loads to be pleased about. Issues are removed from good – abso-fucking-lutely – however everyone knows Rome wasn’t in-built a day, and this Rome’s obtained weed. We will’t cease preventing for the issues that matter, like getting folks out of jail, truthful pricing for drugs, entry to high quality merchandise, the appropriate to dwelling develop, and fewer burdensome laws throughout, however we’re inching ever nearer to a spot most of us by no means thought we’d see. It ain’t all unhealthy!
In that spirit, for 35 I tasked myself with developing with a compilation of totally new names for y’all. To my protection that’s. After all none of those guys have been born yesterday, so I don’t imply new as in totally recent on the shelf, simply that I haven’t but appropriately shone the sunshine on them. A number of these guys are a lot hyphy on their very own, as their work all merited – I’m simply protecting the great phrase movin’!
As all the time, let me know what you’re seeing that’s impressing you! Yeah you can hit me on Twitter, however I’ll be in all places the subsequent few months, from NYC for 4/20 to NorCal for Corridor of Flowers & the Emerald Cup, with a ton of stops in between, so pull up on me in actual life and let’s see what’s good! I’m even listening to rumors of a second Dank Tank in LA?! You’ll should regulate social to search out out!
And with that, right here comes the most recent Cop Checklist:
So I’m not going to entrance on this one, I believed these guys have been simply operating work. Y’all know I’m a flower man, so whereas I faucet in on the rosin boys, you realize the place my focus actually goes. Effectively I didn’t notice they have been cultivating it too, and let me inform you, looks as if there’s far more than just a good washer here. I not too long ago came across a jar of their Puro Loco and never solely does the smoke slap the hell out of you, however the taste! The flavour is elite. The Loco is a Papaya x Moonbow #75 lower bred by Archive, who not often misses on their very own, however it’s clear the cultivation right here is high notch. A brand new one to look at, for certain.
I went by way of all my lists as a result of I used to be fairly certain I’d written about these guys earlier than, however it seems I haven’t, and that’s my unhealthy, as a result of they’ve been killing it. Whereas I’m certain loads of the actual heads are rolling their eyes proper now, there are many gentiles on the market who’re but to see the sunshine, and I’m holding the torch, so for all you on the market seeking to toss stuff world class in your new slurper, that is the one. WCA has delivered the only finest tasting Z rosin I’ve ever consumed in my life – straight from the Hogz – however they’re all the time rocking a full portfolio of flavors – from the sweet & gasoline the market loves, to the fruits to begin your morning with, so there’s really one thing for everyone on their roster. That stated, good luck getting a jar, as these guys are cult-followed, and product by no means stays in inventory lengthy.
Lyfe Sauce is a completely new title for me, however it’s one I’m positively going to maintain my eye one since seeing their final crop. I checked out their cookies & cream (which I’m by no means normally a fan of) and their purple milk and boy have been these flavonoids packed in. The milk has this nostril that jogs my memory of some solventless I noticed years in the past referred to as ‘Bugatti’ that I haven’t seen since, and I’m greater than hyped to have this profile again in my rotation. In truth I catch myself going to the fridge all through the day simply to huff on the jar…
I’ve been listening to from the Black Hippy crew up north for just a few years now, so once we lastly obtained to faucet in earlier this 12 months I used to be proud to see the gang didn’t solely speak the speak, however kicked it like the very best of ‘em. I speak loads about how essential taste is, and whereas it’s typically arduous to inform from the look and scent of a bud simply how nicely the style will maintain up, it was like these buds have been dripping with terps. I’m speaking a few full palate stainer.
Right here’s one other one I’ve type of sideline watched for the previous nevertheless lengthy: Modern Cannabis. They’ve obtained just a few homies I do know from the occasion circuit working over there, however having not too long ago tried their Z for the primary time, it’s time the remainder of you hear about what they’re doing too. A product of Humboldt, however grown indoors (and in soil, too!), MOCA’s Z was full of terps, offering a few of the tastiest smoke I’ve seen from this varietal in flower in an extended whereas – and y’all know I like my Z. They model themselves as small batch, hand watered & trimmed, and it comes throughout within the last product. These nugs have been clearly pumped with love.
One other title I used to be shocked I haven’t raved about earlier than is the Crystal Farms Collective. These guys have been pushing the White Truffle for awhile now, and that is the primary iteration of this cultivar that I actually linked with. I believe it’s most likely as a result of I heard so many individuals raving about this one which I set this bar too excessive in my head, so the primary few fools who introduced it over I used to be like ‘it’s no matter’, however Crystal’s? Now that’s some actual shit. There’s a real downer lean on this hybrid, and also you’ll really feel it in your soul.
My homies at Chaliques advised me I needed to regulate these guys, and it’s a superb factor, as a result of I’m glad I caught their new cultivar Cold Heat. Not solely have these guys crushed the advertising and marketing with a World Industries sort vibe, however the flower truly smacks. I don’t know the way else to elucidate the style in addition to calling it a musky gasoline, however that is the proper ‘I have to zone the fuck out rn’ device. I’m digging by way of Emerald Cup entries proper now and but that is the factor I discover myself persevering with to need to smoke – and you realize what meaning for a taste chaser!
Wow extra rosin on the identical checklist, who’re you? I do know, I’m stunning myself right here, however that is one other bucket that I can’t cease scooping from. Fortunately Puffco’s newest Wizard product arrived final week and I’ve been strolling round my condominium rotating between this Papaya and the Lyfe Sauce I discussed earlier. There’s one thing particular in regards to the scent of this one that you simply get low key hooked on, like a superb fragrance that has that tremendous funk on the again. I might lather this on myself for aroma if it wasn’t a waste of terps.
Right here’s one other dude I’ve been speaking to on-line for awhile that pulled up with some work y’all ought to find out about. Diamond Fireplace’s been making an attempt to play the authorized recreation for awhile, however he by no means gave up his roots – and it’s a superb factor, because the market’s such a multitude proper now. Homie introduced over some actual deal herbs that not solely seemed and smelled like one thing you’d see in our centerfold, however it was packing the strain we have to not simply smoke good, however really feel good too. Contemplating the dimensions of his batches you’d suppose he’d be method custier on the value, however this can be a true for-the-people cultivator. When you respect high quality, you’ll need to faucet in.
That is one other man I’ve been waiting for awhile and is late on some shine. Shaun’s been within the Zalympix competitions, he’s been cultivating warmth down in San Diego, however once we linked final he confirmed me a few of his new gasoline and man, that is actually probably the most rank diesel smelling aroma I’ve seen in YEARS. And it interprets, too! For these of you on the market who’re all the time asking ‘The place’s the gasoline?’, that is a solution I’m completely certain you’ll respect. This shit’s going to have you ever feeling such as you’re floating in zero gravity for actual!
