Recently tried out the Cherry on Top from the Verano reserve collection. Coming in at 25% with dominant terpenes of Myrcene,Linalool and Beta Caryophyllene it is labeled as a straight Indica. Let's start with the smell very pungent almost like a rotting mango. Taste smooth with a hint of Cherry coming through on inhale with a nice skunky exhale. The bud was sticky and ground up beautifully. As with alot of cannabis in the medical program it burned a little dry. Effects were like putting a heavy coat on. Nice body slump and relaxation at first but as the high matured I felt myself ready to get some housework done. Overall it was a solid strain and I would pick it up if on discount.

I’ve threw a lot of containers away but these are some I still have. Below is are the strains. No specific order but of course If I bought it more than once it’s a fav ⭐️

As the title says, Im prepping for Saturns this weekend. Its the 3rd cocktail on my Tiki adventure. I do low carb so I make all my mixers. Today I completed Falernum and a Cashew Orgeat. I cannot wait for Sunday. My glasses should arrive tomorrow
Falernum is a riff of Bar Talk and Cocktails:
2 tablespoons blanched, slivered almonds 40 whole cloves, crushed 3/4 cup (6 ounces) white rum Finely grated zest of 9 medium limes, with no traces of white pith 1 (3-inch piece) fresh ginger, peeled and julienned 1 1/2 cups plus 2 tablespoons sweetener 3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon warm water 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice, strained 1 drop almond extract
Cashew Orgeat is a riff on Very Good’s
1 Cup or 175g Cashews 2 Cups or 400g Sweetener 2 Cups or 475g Water 1 Large Pinch Kosher Salt 1 oz or 30ml PF Cognac 1/4 tsp or 3ml Rosewater 1/4 tap Orange Blossom water

My Notes on All Kaviar Strains that are being Grown Currently.
Let me know what is missing or what can be Fixed.

this strain is a very tasty powerful satisfying hybrid! super lemon-pepper peppery kinda like the old G-wagon. i feel flabbergasted like happy humpernickle after this one. best verano ive had in years!

TL;DR
-LowPriceBud concentrates suck, avoid -Harmonized Hemp: Shatter from Honey Badger isn't bad for the price, their FSE line is a bit monotonous in the flavours. Flower can be overpriced. -The Blazed Hippy (Non-NFC): "House" FSE effects are good, terps are a kinda muted. The flower they sell from OKG is good. -Ganjawise: great carts, terpy, a bit on the pricier side. -Caviar extracts: Best FSE/LR I've had so far, terpy, effects are good. Carts are good but not as flavorful as GW. I've only had one and voiced it to them, they will send me more samples to check, so review pending on that.
I decided to start using MoMs more at the beginning of the year. It's going to be a very detailed post because I want to help out as much with my experience and make it easier for the community. I'm obviously going to be called a shill for liking certain companies more than others so I'm providing some photos.
Here we go!
Pre-MoM I was using a local delivery service getting Pegasus 420 shatter and flower. The shatter was $135/5g so I decided to go online to look for better deals. I also had HVE sauce from them on 2 occasions and it was really good, I just found it a bit too runny, and it was out of my price range compared to the shatter. Maybe I'll try the HVE LR some day.
I ended up seeing an advert for LowPriceBud while searching and clicked on it (which was kind of dumb in retrospect), I saw they had a 14g mix n match concentrate deal for $200, so I jumped on it. I got a bunch of shatter from the So High line and some of their house shattebudder. When I tried the first shatter, it was horrible, it tasted burnt/like butane. I thought maybe it's just that one. Nope. They all tasted the exact same. 2 had a more glass like consistency but the rest were virtually the same, even the house shatter. The budder was white and tasted like gas, not in a good way or a terp way. I learned my lesson, and decided to steer clear of MoMs offering it.
I had to go for a company I knew was good. I remembered a brand called Honey Badger a few years back when I was visiting Ontario and how much I liked it so I decided to look for them. I found them on IG and asked. They directed me to Harmonized Hemp. As I was making my 14g mix n match from HH ($225), I was reading all the posts on Reddit saying how much they suck. I was obviously confused. The order came with some stickers, gummies, and a rolling tray(nice!). The HB shatter was good, I noticed that some strains tasted really similar(remember this) but didn't mind because they tasted good. I made a second order with some "AAAA" flower. I'm on this sub daily now looking at old and new posts about everything I could find
I get the order + the same little gifts. The flower is exactly as the pics are on the site, kinda dry though, but it was decent/good (I noticed I liked stuff from Kingsmen Crew more). For my following orders over the months, I decided to switch it up and try some FSE from HB ($280 for 14g) and some shatter from the aforementioned, Seven Star, Sabertooth and their house brand. I also grabbed some Ganjawise carts when they started selling on the site because of their reputation on this sub (they are great, best carts I've had so far).
Ok, so I think can safely say (look at the pics) I have tried almost every HB shatter strain they have over the past 3 months and almost all their FSEs. They aren't bad. I'm still going to purchase them from time to time because I like the price. I just felt like they were same 4 types of shattefse strains recycled under different names. Like the God's Treat tasted exactly like the God Bud (I can get why there) that tastest exactly like the Lychee... tropical/floral (which is good btw, one of my favorites). I also noticed that the tropical/floral ones had the same type of sugared up consistency (more terps maybe?).
The house brand was muted. The Seven Star strains I tried weren't bad, very dark color. My fave strain, Mimosa, wasn't even shatter consistency, it was like thick caramel... It tasted great though, very herbal/floral, and helped my ADHD. I don't think HH is restocking SS anymore though. I only tried 1 Sabertooth shatter, it was terpy, but weird (for me).
I decided to go looking for a new MoM that would offer the same price ranges for my budget. I asked Seven Star where I can find their shatter and they told me Cannafirm. I got a bit sketched out not only because of the Reddit reviews, but because their socials haven't been updated in over 90 weeks and some of the last pics look like the current strains they are selling.
I saw some posts on here saying Caviar Extracts was good (and some not so much), the site seemed legit, the socials were updated regularly, and they also beat Honey Badger in the Karma Cup (never heard of it but cool). The only thing I was apprehensive about was the fact that I could only pick 2 strains in the 14g (18/g or $290 with tax and shipping), and that there was no info on the strains (I'm a nerd, can't you tell by now?). After researching the strains I picked 2 (Sour Dawg, Jelly Breath) and made an order. While my order was on route I kept on remembering their name on shatter though. I looked it up...there it was...their products on Cannablossom next to the So High line...fuuuuu--. I decided to message them asking about it. They messaged me back, very professionally, saying that they make shatter and 50/50 distillate-fse that's not available on the website, only at wholesale volumes and to MoMs who wish to carry their products.
The Sour Dawg was very petrol/citrus and the Jelly Breath had a gassy floral kick. The effects are good too. The consistency is also more... consistent. It's actually "caviar" consistency, not clumpy diamonds in sauce (not saying one is better, just easier to dose for me). I thought hey! If it's so good at this price point, maybe I can find another MoM at the same price point that offers more selection.
I kept on seeing this trend here that NFC is awesome so I checked it out. I made an account with The Blazed Hippy, and although the NFC stuff was out of my price range (still wanna try it badly some day), I saw they had some in house FSE at the price point I'm used too with as many strains as you want. I decided to get some flower as well because they have OGK Suge flower, and I've ordered from that grower from HH before and enjoyed it. The flower was good OGK, really caked. The effects of the FSE were good, but I found the strains a bit muted, like I said, the effects made up for it, I just wish it was terpier. I'm guessing that's what the NFC is like, ultra terpy, but I can't afford it for regular rotation at the moment, and that's what I'm looking for. Not just a treat. I was considering trying the 8g NFC over 14g Caviar (made a Reddit post) but decided the cost/unit ratio was just too much for my wallet. A dispute happened in the comments about the companies.
Anyways, I messaged Caviar asking them what strains I should choose based on xyz preference with a P.S. asking if they add anything to the products because I really like the terps. They gave me a lengthy, professional response saying they don't (which I copy/pasted to that post in a comment, can repost here if anyone wants). They also told me that they were going to start selling a 14g variety pack (7 random strains, increased price though) because of high client demand. I told them to sign me up for the variety pack. They also told me they would send me 1g live resin and 1 cart to try out for free. Funny thinkg is I've never had live resin, only fse/caviar.
My package was delayed due to Victoria day for 2 extra days and I was out of dabs so I decided to try a new delivery service in the area. I got 2g live resin from Cloud 9 and some Enigma Extracts popcorn smalls flower. The flower is good, real deal, probably going to buy more flower again, but the live resin was gross af. Super runny/soupy and it stinks like chemicals...dabbing it was super harsh and tastes like cough syrup. When I got my order from Caviar the next day, the live resin they sent me looked completely different, like night and day (check the pic).
The Durban Poison cart I got is good. It's not as terpy as their sauces (they clarified why, I can post their response if requested) or the Ganjawise carts I've had. I voiced this to them and they told me they would send me more samples next order to try and get back to them on. Either way, the price point is good for what it is because their highest is $22/g and GW's lowest is $30g/direct, MoMs are selling them $60/g.
The variety pack from Caviar Extracts is awesome. My faves so far are the Sour Tangerine (gassy/clementine) and the Blue Widow (earthy, berry). They all have a a very slight gassy undertone, in a good way (because of the soil they use maybe?).
With my budget, I'm probably going to get the 14g variety from Caviar at the beginning of the month (more expensive price), get HB/TBH shatter mid month (cheaper price), and get the 2 of my fave strain choices from Caviar again at the end of the month (balanced price). All while getting flower from either TBH and the local delivery service.
As for treats, I want to try the following: more GW, El3vated Extracts, NFC, and Kind.
Thank you for reading all that!
Feel free to post your own anecdotes/journeys! I'm here reading your posts every day lol.

• 3 6oz containers ripe blackberries
• 1/2 cup orange juice
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1 tbsp sherry vinegar
• 2 tbsp dark brown sugar
• 2 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
• 1/2 stick melted butter
• 1 tsp kosher salt
• 1 tsp cayenne pepper
• 2 sprigs fresh rosemary

1. Add all ingredients besides rosemary to a blender and puree until smooth. If you have a Vitamix or comparable, this will take care of the seeds. If not, strain.
2. Pour into medium saucepan over medium heat until bubbling.
3. Add rosemary and reduce to simmer.
4. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until reduced to the thickness of a bbq sauce, then remove rosemary.
5. Toss chicken in 1 cup of sauce, then add chicken to smoker at 250f
6. Smoke for 1.5 hrs, basting with more sauce halfway through and 10 mins before the end.
7. Remove chicken and cool to eating temp. Serve with extra sauce on the side for dipping.

Ordered as a replacement script for topaz. First tub from chemovar
First up, this tub goes right to the top of the pile for QC in processing and packaging. Dry, cure, trim and bud presentation are all well above everything else out there aside from sativite on a good day. I'm confident this should be pretty much stay the norm coming from a small team farm like Stewart. Smelt great, chopped up great straight out of the tub. Rare
Terps and taste on this strain is also great. Unique and vapes up nicely. Potency and effect is where this strain falls a little short for me and my use although I'm sure plenty of people will like it as a day strain. While it's certainly punchy and not weak by any means, a little has a nice effect, but then kind of levels out and lots barely has any more effect for pain and sleep which is my main medical use. I'd describe it as a clear headed and energising strain which I find kind of rare to have less land racey sativa strain effect me this way. More potent than Ventura Dawg just I would place this one
All in all, pretty great and unique product showing some big improvements in quality in areas a lot of other MC falls way short. Not a strain I'll keep in my rotation as a regular, but very excited to see what Stewart farms can do with the royal Kush clone

What is drawn butter? Drawn butter is another name for clarified butter. It is a golden liquid obtained by melting regular unsalted butter and removing the milk solids and water content. The process involves heating the butter, allowing the impurities to separate, and then straining it, resulting in a pure, smooth, and richly flavored butterfat used in various culinary applications.
What are the common uses of drawn butter?
What is drawn butter? We hope you have got the answer now. But now you may wonder about the uses of drawn butter. Drawn butter is used in food making. Sometimes Drawn butter is made with a lemony tinge, which works as a ghee sauce with a sour taste. However, there are other uses of drawn butter.

• Drawn butter is commonly used as a dipping sauce for seafood, such as lobster, crab, and shrimp, adding a rich buttery flavor.
• It is a versatile cooking fat, ideal for sautéing, pan-frying, and grilling, enhancing the taste and providing a smooth texture.
• Drawn butter is a drizzle over steamed vegetables, grilled meats, or roasted potatoes, imparting a luxurious taste and glossy finish.
• It can be incorporated into sauces, gravies, and dressings, lending a velvety texture and enhancing the overall richness of the dish.
• Drawn butter is a key ingredient in baking, adding moisture and richness to pastries, cakes, and cookies, resulting in a tender and flavorful end product.
• It can be tried as a healthy replacement for oil or regular butter in recipes, particularly when a pure and clarified fat is desired for a specific flavor profile.

Summing up: what is drawn butter?
It is always good to use clarified butter of grass-fed quality because grass-fed ghee contains more nutrients than non-grass-fed ghee. For instance, you may use Milkio grass-fed ghee. Milkio’s ghee is lactose and casein-free, keto, Paleo diet-friendly, Halal and Kosher-approved, verified non-GMO dairy products.

Ok so I can’t find any info on this strain someone told me it was just berry tart, but I’m pretty disappointed the 8th I got is mostly smalls, there’s not too much of a smell or taste to it, the effects were nice tho (given I haven’t smoked in 3 days)… it’s definitely not worth $55-$40 these are bottom of the barrel buds…I liked veranos Tyson 2.0 pound for pound cake so I thought I’d give the verano Rick flare drip a try but it was a waste of money, I really do think it’s just flower that verano has an over abundance of …. ) :
