This review is the second of 3 I'll be doing for ChipChipperson, who was kind enough to send me a few samples. TLDR - really good smoke for the money if you don't care that it's shake. Pic: http://anony.ws/image/DyxO | http://postimg.org/image/3qbgu2je5

TOTAL SCORE (60): | [53 ] |
That's an 88% B - add in 10's for the gimme categories and you have a solid score of 93. |
Comments: Like the Skywalker OG review I just posted (and the upcoming budget Sour D one), these were free samples Chip sent me for review. I'm doing my best to remain unbiased and treat this as if I actually purchased the products. Chip was selling this stuff @ $300/QP, so that's listed above. Chip said the price for this bud had been:
Weight | 3.5 | 7 | 14 | 28 | 112 |
Price | $45 | $85 | $160 | $300 | $1000 |
Rating the transaction categories is difficult, so some explanation is included in the table. Depending on feedback I may continue to comment the overview tables in future reviews. Please remember that if I had rated the other categories his overall score would have been '89' if he got 9's and '93' if he got 10's.
The Strain Summary below lacks some detail as, again, this is shake. I don't know the first thing about reselling shake, so no comment there, but from a personal use standpoint if you can get past the fact that you're not getting intact buds this stuff is actually a really solid smoke. I love all aspects of marijuana and, as sort of a weed snob, have always passed on these sorts of lists because of that... you don't get to enjoy the sights and smells of a freshly harvested bunch of flowers.
Let's be real, though - those beatiful buds will likely meet the business end of a grinder sooner than later. So since this stuff is headed for a dugout or joint anyway, you can save yourself a few bucks (as well as a couple twists of that grinder) and grab some shake to get you lifted. I'll definitely consider it, which I don't think is something I could have honestly said before receiving this sample. Appreciate it, Chip.
Strain Summary:
Strain | Sour Diesel - https://www.leafly.com/sativa/sour-diesel |
Bud Size: | Shake, couple really small popcorn buds. |
Smell: | |
Trim: | N/A |
Trichomes: | Really wish I had the microscope here, 'cause it's hard to tell with shake. |
Seeds: | None |
Stems: | None |
Smoked: | I used this as my day smoke for a couple days (which means a hit or two from my bat around each meal) and was totally satisfied. I've had Sour D a time or two, and the high was on par - a bit heavy/stoney once it kicks in (which is quickly), but that fades after about 20 minutes and leaves a nice clear high. Leafly lists Sour D as a sativa and it is Sativa-dominant, but it's not like a 90/10 split so those of you who get a little anxious or paranoid should still be okay with this one. I'd say more 70/30 split, with any indica-type feelings in well in the rear-view mirror by the end of the first hour, which is when the effect gradually fades over the course of the following hour or two. |
Vaped: | I should have vaped this one, but it all went in the dugout for the work week. I'm sure it would have still been a solid experience. |
Other: | I wasn't expecting much and thus was really pleasantly surprised with this one. Would have loved to had a batch of these flowers! |

Additional Notes/Pictures:
I'll be doing a review of Chip's Budget Sour D in the next week or so, with reviews of his current listings a week or so after that.
