I just started a new blog, reviewing new strains that I am getting a hold of here in phoenix. CC appreciated :) (looking to review new ones all the time from local growers :) )

The first problem I see with that site immediately is most of those buds are Greenhouse or Outdoor. Which means most likely from Cali. I think you should save your bias and opinions for meds grown here locally, indoor, for patients, by Caregivers. Some of those buds look like they just came out of the vaccuum pack after a very long trip. The lemon haze looks nice though.

All but 2 were from collectives out here. Yeah, im positive that some came out of a vacuum sealed bag, but i know that none were outdoor. I know that Ogsile was a green house one. If you know any local growers please let me know.

You need to show the genetics of the strain. Its a cool site but you are missing the genetics on some of the strains.

Yah the ogiesel definitely is from Cali or Colorado (I saw it back in november... I even heard someone tell me it was from Nevada?.. but I still like it.) The reviews on your site aren't bad otherwise, see if you can't get some "Az Buds" though ;)
 
A few of the new strains that i am reviewing now are locally grown by an owner of a collective. R2D2 came from him, along with ATF, and Colorado Thunder to reviewed tomorrow or the next day. And if ANYONE is LOCAL to the NORTH PHOENIX area hit me up. I would love to see some locally grow stuff!

Strains I know are local that you should try and get

Killabrew Purps (1970's strain BC Purps x GDP) and Katsu God (Pre 98 KAtsu Bubba x God Bud)

Both only available through 2 Caregivers I know, one of which bred them both.

Im seriously slacking, it seems like EVERYBODY has a strain from the 60's-70'sbar and another that tests close to 30%. I better step it up

Every one of my favorite strains to smoke tests well under 18% so I wouldn't go killing yourself over it.

Those test results are bullshit. Go and check out real test results from bud in Cali and you will see that it rarely tests over 23% most good meds test between 15-20%.

Truth. AZ Med Test seems to test everything over 20%. LOL Take it to Cali and it will test 15%.

Yeah its a lot of bullshit, you wont find many strains that test over 20% THC. A lot of it is just advertising/marketing schemes.
 
I only found one out here that tested 23% and they were asking for a $75 donation for an 8th. Platinum Cookies. Yeah....very few comes back over 20%. Agreed on that 15-20% but there have been a few in the 13s that really impressed me but they were all indicas.

The reasons these types of things are inapplicable for Cannabis is I can grow a Bubba Kush that is pesticide free, well cured and dried perfectly, and tests 18%. Then some guy can bring in some stuff from Cali that is improperly cured, shitty trim and sprayed with pesticides 3 weeks before cutting and tests at 21%.

Which would you rather smoke?

It just goes to show you how the mmj industry is ran. Most of the people who post here in the Phx thread are what i would call a "connoisseur" meaning they critique everything: taste, texture, smell, after taste, expands the lungs , makes you cough , how the plant is grown from start to finish etc, etc.....At the end of the day we are a small majority in the mmj community.
That being said anyone one who is a true connoisseur knows all about Bubba Kush and its medicating values I honestly could care less about THC %'s at this point. Im looking for overall satisfaction.

Exactly. That is all I am looking for. Some good overall smokes for days and nights. I just like to see test results so I know what is going to be good for my back.
