Layer Cake by Louis VuChron


This Layer Cake (Wedding Cake x GMO) grown by Louis VuChron had a nice sweet cake and earthy spice aroma πŸŽ‚πŸŒ± I can't really describe the nose as loud or strong but it wasn't light either. The buds were large, dense, and totally covered in large trichomes 🀩 Breaking up the nugs brought out a strong sweet cake aroma and left my fingers nice and sticky.

The flavor translated well with strong earth and nice sweet cake and spice notes πŸ˜‹ The vapor was quite thick with just a bit of harshness to it. The flavor lasted an average amount of time but the vapor just kept on going.

The effects were strong, giving me a nice stoney head change with noticeable pressure behind the eyes and solid relaxation throughout my body πŸ€— I found the high to also be uplifting/mood elevating and it didn't couch lock me which was great for daytime use.

Overall I enjoyed the Layer Cake from Louis VuChron πŸ˜‹ The aroma was nice and the flavor translated well with thick vapor. The effects were nice and strong and worked well for me for daytime meds πŸ‘πŸΌ

Mitten Cake Batter by Louis VuChron


Louis VuChron is a locally owned and operated recreational cannabis farm in Portland, Oregon. Respect, positivity and good vibes are the foundation of what they do. That good energy resonates within the crew and is clearly translated to the final product.

This Mitten Cake Batter (Kush Mints x Wedding Cake x Kush Mints bx) grown by Louis VuChron had some pretty insane jar appeal 🀩 Big dense buds that were completely coated in trichomes ✨ The trim job was also worth noting, as the nug structure, pistils, and trichomes we're completely unharmed in the process πŸ‘ŒπŸΌ The nose on the flower was also quite strong, giving off a heavy sweet cake dessert aroma with notes of skunk and wood πŸŽ‚πŸ¦πŸ¦¨πŸͺ΅ Breaking up the buds brought out a very robust sweet dessert smell and left my fingers quite sticky.

The flavor translated well in my vaporizer with strong sweet cake dominating the profile and sharp pine notes hitting me up front followed by skunky woody notes πŸ˜‹ I enjoyed the complexity and it was more unique than your typical cake profile. The vapor was quite smooth considering how thick it was πŸ’¨πŸ’¨ Both the flavor and the vapor lasted longer than average.

Effects were strong and stoney in my head, a bit stupefying, and also provided some nice relaxation for my body. The headband effect was pretty intense from two bowls in my vape and I was sweating a bit after three πŸ₯΅

Overall I really enjoyed this Mitten Cake Batter from Louis VuChron πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯ It easily checked all the boxes for me βœ… The jar appeal was excellent, the flavor was robust, complex and pretty unique for a cake variety, and the effects were nice and strong πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

Runtz by Lovena Green Farms


I first discovered Lovena Green Farms back in 2015/2016 during the early sales period and I really enjoyed their flower πŸ˜‹ I can specifically remember their Hippie Crippler and Pineapple Express and it was great to reconnect with them and see what they have been up to lately. Lovena has moved to a new indoor facility with LED lighting in Newberg and they have been dialing in their growing methods in the new environment. I got the opportunity to tour the grow and check out a few of their new cultivars πŸ•΅οΈ Today I'll be sharing a review of one of my favorites from the varieties that I tried.

This Runtz (Gelato 33 x Zkittlez) grown by Lovena Green Farms had a loud sweet candy nose with some pine notes and extra funk to it πŸ”Š The buds were dark green, dense with good give, frosty, and tightly trim.

The flavor translated well and was strong candy funk with initial notes of pine in my vape πŸ¬πŸ§€πŸŒ² The vapor was thick and reasonably smooth with just some minor harshness as I vaped through the bowl.

The effects were strong giving me a solid head change that spread down my neck to heavy relaxation in my shoulders πŸ€— The high was a bit stupefying with some euphoria and solid full body relief πŸ‘πŸΌ

Overall I really enjoyed the Runtz from Lovena Green Farms πŸ˜‹ The aroma was loud with matching flavor and the effects were nice and potent πŸ‘πŸΌ

Strawberry Chocolate Roses by Mouse House Edibles


These hash rosin infused Strawberry Chocolate Roses by Mouse House Edibles came in a cute little pink package of two roses 🌹🌹 The rose shapes are so cute and the powdered strawberries from the garden are a very nice touch 😊 The chocolate roses are infused with hash rosin from New Rose Farms and contain ~60mg of THC each.

These little things tasted delicious πŸ˜‹ The dark chocolate paired very well with the hash rosin. It was just the right amount of hash flavor to chocolate to not be overpowering and still give a nice taste of the medicine. I also thought the powdered strawberries from the home garden made the edible feel a bit more farm to table and premium than your standard chocolate edible πŸ‘ŒπŸΌ

I ate both chocolate roses to test the effects and they were very nice πŸ€— The high came on fast and was quite potent giving me excellent full body relaxation and mood elevation. I was already kind of tired when I ate the roses and I ended up taking a really nice nap that afternoon 😴

Overall I really enjoyed these Dark Chocolate Roses w/ Powdered Strawberries πŸ˜‹ The flavor was excellent and the effects were potent πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

CheetoZ 5 by JD Grown


JD Grown was founded by a legacy operator who has been involved in the Oregon cannabis industry since before I started consuming the plant. In fact, he was one of the first people to introduce me to high quality cannabis back in 2004 and has always been known for having some of the best flower around. In addition to the farm, he established the Natural Remedies dispensary in SW Portland and has recently expanded to a second location on the east side.

The Effects were strong and uplifting giving me an intense headband effect and some solid body relief too. I found the CheetoZ 5 to be very potent and two bowls had me feeling as good as a dab πŸ€— Three bowls had me sweating a bit πŸ₯΅πŸ˜…

Veggie Mama Chill-E by Biggs Edibles


Today I'm doing a review of a unique craft edible product from Biggs Edibles πŸ˜‹ If you don't know Biggs, they are well know in the Portland cannabis community for their decadent medicated cheesecakes. Recently they decided to launch their first vegan product in the form of a medicated meal and they are very excited to share their solventless soup with everyone. This Veggie Mama Chill-E is made from scratch with natural whole food ingredients and no meat substitutes. The full ingredients list can be found by scanning the QR code on the jar. You can also find directions for heating the meal as well as topping suggestions.

When I popped the lid on the vacuum sealed jar, I was instantly hit with a robust classic chili aroma πŸ˜‹ I decided to heat up the entire jar (~200mg THC) and serve it over farfalle (bow tie) pasta 🍝 This made a delicious and hearty dinner that I really enjoyed. I didn't notice any hash or cannabis flavor and the meal was very satisfying. The ingredients all tasted high quality and there was nothing in the chili that I wouldn't have included myself. I took my time enjoying the meal and by the time I had finished I was already starting to feel the hash kick in πŸš€

The effects came on pretty quickly and about 45 minutes after I started eating the meal I was feeling pretty medicated πŸ€— 200mg is a nice strong dose for me and at one point I found myself giggling about absolutely nothing πŸ˜‚πŸ˜… I was also vibing out to some music pretty hard at the peak 🎢 After a few hours I was ready for bed and I was able to get right to sleep and slept well through the night 😴

Overall I really enjoyed this Veggie Mama Chill-E from Biggs Edibles πŸ˜‹ It was quite a unique experience to have a medicated meal that I didn't infuse personally. I really enjoyed both the chili itself and the effects. The ingredients fit my strict diet while still making a great dinner and the high was plenty potent. I must say, it was a pleasure to review this craft edible product ☺️❀️
