Buds Worth Buying Leave a comment

We know how you feel. There’s hundreds of strains to try out there, and there will be a healthy mix of ones you like, ones you don’t, and everything in between. We carry nearly 50 cannabis strains in our inventory, and all of them are great, but we noticed a trend of popularity and attention forming around four particular strains of ours that we felt deserved investigating.

Here are four cannabis strains that have consistently ranked high in popularity, not just with our clients, but the cannabis industry as a whole.

Afghani Kush

Among the oldest and purest strains left in the world, Afghani Kush is a semi-domesticated pure indica strain that has a legacy worthy of its place in the modern market. Traditionally, Afghani Kush is from an area along the Afghanistan/Pakistan border and was used as the single ingredient to produce one of history’s most influential and high class products – Afghani Hash.

This ancestral strain of cannabis flower is one of the only elder cannabis plants in active cultivation today, making it a living link to cannabis history.

The experience with this strain is characterised by its earthy aroma and flavour, its high THC content, its myrcene dominant terpene profile, and its sedating effects.

The look of this bud is unmistakable as it features the dominant characteristics that have spawned its endless variations of sub-strains. With bright green flowers covered in vibrant orange hairs, it’s clear to see dominance of this ancestral strain’s genetics in most other cannabis on the market.

THC content: 16%

CBD content: <1%

Wedding Cake

Wedding Cake has been a smash hit since 2019 when leafly named Leafly Strain of the Year. A potent hybrid of Triangle Kush and Animal Mints, this cannabis flower takes the best qualities of its parent strains and blends them perfectly into a sweet and highly potent strain worthy of any party.

This strain is described by many as having a wonderful sweet aroma and flavour with hints of mint and lemon with a dazzling array of colors and a well frosted finish.

The effects reported with the popular bud include relaxation effects, feelings of happiness and contentment, and an increase in appetite. With a terpene profile dominant in limonene, this strain will help you feel relaxed, without robbing you of your ability to focus.

Advisory – this one sells fast so check often for restock.

THC content: 22%

Bruce Banner

At a whopping 21% THC content, Bruce Banner will never get angry enough to go green. This popular strain has earned a special place in the hearts of cannabis lovers ever since it hit the market just a few short years ago. This strain is a cross between OG Kush (an Afghani Kush sub-strain), and Strawberry diesel – and given its popularity, it’s clear it took the best qualities of it’s two parent strains.

The look of this beauty can’t be appreciated enough as it features a vibrant green with purple leaves and bright orange hairs. This strain is known to have a sweet, earthy and diesel aroma and its amazing euphoria inducing effects. Because of it’s myrcene dominant terpene profile, you can be sure this strain will keep you well relaxed and unable to experience anger.

Girl Scout Cookies

Last but not least, the famous Girl Scout Cookies (GSC). This strain has become one of the most popular strains in North America, and for good reason. It checks off all the right boxes when it comes to the most common needs of cannabis users. It grants an energized high with a THC content of 19% and a caryophyllene dominant terpene profile that’s strong on the hit but does not rob you of your energy or focus. If we were to call the high anything, we’d say it was a cerebral and productive high.

This strain is a potent cross between OG Kush (an Afghani Kush sub-strain), and durban poison which has granted it with a sweet and buttery flavour profile. GCS, true to the name, gives off a dessert-like sweet and minty aroma which will always leave you wanting more. The buds themselves feature a vibrant color pallet of blues, purples, oranges, greens and yellows.

GCS has become so popular in fact, that growers have bred countless sub-strains to create all different kinds of variations on it’s signature profile.
