Name: Skywalker OG Kush

Dispensary: Advanced NMC (formerly Apothecary 420) [Hollywood]

Grade: B+

Type: Mostly Indica

Lineage:  A variation of the original cut of Skywalker OG.

Price: $20/gram, $60/8th 

Looks: Dense nugs completely covered in golden hued trichomes. Mostly light green buds with a few light brown hairs. Soft, dank and sticky.

Smell: Pine, citrus and fuel. Recognizable pine-fuel OG stank.

Taste: A piney, musty flavor with a touch of citrus. A cooling sensation was noticeable on my tongue while vaporizing. Rich and smooth vapor with heavy lung expansion.

Buzz: Strong, racy stone. Introspective and heavy with a strong body buzz. Couch lock in high doses. Had me feeling very stoned with my heart beating fast. Numbing sensations were noticeable around my face and body. Best for the evening.

Summary:  A great looking cut of OG Kush with an excellent taste and a buzz that was strong and racy. I prefer more mellow, euphoric buzzes, so this wasn’t for me. Fans of Sour Diesel and Chem Dawg would likely enjoy this strain.

Private Reserve Skywalker OG Kush.

A fresh batch of Platinum Bubba Kush is a beautiful thing.

Grade: A

Looks: Small, dense, compact nugs. Dark green buds completely crawling with pale brown hairs and golden hued trichomes. Dank and sticky.

Buzz: Heady, peaceful high. Spacey, creative and mildly euphoric with a relaxed energy and a light body buzz. Numbing sensations were noticeable around my eyebrows and down my back. Best for the afternoon, outdoor activities or wake and bake.

Summary: A mellow Sativa that tasted and smelled like Sour Patch Kids. The buzz was memorable; peaceful and relaxing without being sedating.
