Before the review I would like to extend an apology to the vendor for having delayed this review for about a week. He held up his end of the deal (and very well). I do like to take my time to give the product a fair review though. And it was my first time with this strain. Please don't hate me forever, Chip! You rock!
Now, on to the review:
Note: I do believe the seller was in the process of clearing the shelves so he was offering a deal of buy 3.5g of Sour Diesel, get 7g. I am going to assume then that the product was the 'lower level' of his top shelf product. I may have misunderstood and if Chip could chime in that would be great
Even with the disclaimer above, this shit is beautiful. The trichome development on these buds is really really nice. And the aroma from it is incredible, I'm glad I have the opportunity to finally smell what everyone talks about in this strain. It's gorgeous.
The buds were a little small (should have put something for scale in the pic, the average size was a little bigger than the size of a quarter). This is where the disclaimer mainly comes in for me. I could care less about the size so long as the buds are nice and intact.
The product is phenomenal. I'm a sativa guy so anything that can get me going or thinking is my jam. This stuff does it. Morning, afternoon, night. I can't get enough. And that should be very easy with how much of it I have haha.
I'm not super familiar with nucleus so I can't find the old order but I believe it was around $55 with shipping.
Speaking of shipping. Holy fuck. The amount of layers used to keep the package smell free was pretty scary. And it arrived practically across the country in 3 days.
