Title: CapnJack with some weed samples
Post by: CapnJack on June 06, 2012, 01:55 am
Hey everyone!  Just like my hash samples, I'll be giving away some weed samples.  Each sample will have 1/2 gram of White Widow and 1/2 gram Jock Horror.  There will be 4 total and the rules are the same as the other samples I had.

1) Shipping has to be domestic (US).  (Right now I only have a vacuum sealer that does bigger bags that won't work well in envelopes and I don't want to have to declare packages in customs)

2) You have to have made a contribution to the SR community in the forums.  I will consider those with low posts but not those with high posts who like to see themselves type.

3) You are willing to cover the shipping ($3.00) and only order 1 from the stealth listing.

4) You MUST send us a message with honest feedback to let us know if it is worth it to continue with this endeavor.

Let us know if you have any questions or concerns.  Thanks for reading.

I would be interested in a sample and am willing to agree to all your terms, as long as the listing is held in escrow.

I have 10 completed transactions, all of which were 8BTC or more.

I live in the USA and if you check my purchasing feedback, I am always thorough.

I will provide a thorough write up on the types of high I experience, as well as a write up on visual quality.

Thanks for the replies.  It is only $3, but just like any product I will list, I would never consider having these outside of escrow (FE is never asked for but always appreciated).  As a seller, it is my duty to make sure the package arrives to it's destination so I assume all of the responsibility.  The money only covers the postage and DCN but not the packaging itself so I feel that it is fair.

I would definitely love a sample.  I have been an SR member for over 9 months, have a very low refund rate (<0.4%), and have spent over $2000 total.  Let me know what you can do :)

PM'd via SR. I am thoroughly intrigued by this "Jock Horror" strain :D

Alright.  I have my sample group set.  Thanks to all of those that replied.  There were a few that I had a hard time deciding between but in the end, I think that my samplers will provide honest feedback.  Things are looking up for products I will be offering so check back later for more samples.

Ooh, spooky strains  ;D
I'd like a sample if I'm found worthy enough. Widow is one of my top strains I've yet to try, and Jack Horror... well, I'd let that one cure until halloween comes around.

Received the samples today!  Gonna update this post with a complete review once the buds decompress, as they were a bit smooshed.

Looking forward to getting a closer look at these bright green buds!

Pics and a review to come.

The samples arrived yesterday but I was rather busy unpacking, and enjoying :D

The package left something to be desired. Improper labeling methods, while obviously sufficient, can increase risk over time. Try printed labeling or order some cheapo address labels for a business in bulk. You can get hundreds for cheap and then for the shipping address just print out the label in plain black ink with a standard web font like verdana or a standard typing font like Times New Roman or Arial.

Smell protection was good and the envelope was good but improvable. The buds were really compressed, I have read of someone using a ziplock baggie with a tiny of an air bubble to keep them from squishing so hard.

The buds appear very similar but jock horror is clearly more potent. It has more crystals and a different high. It made me feel exhilarated and energetic for hours while managing to let me zone in on whatever I want. I blasted through some C++ examples and chapters after smoking the Jock Horror.

The white widow is similar but not as potent. It still is a good bud and I enjoy the high which is speedy and awake, but it isn't as potent as the Jock Horror. It appears and feels like the Jock Horror is a strain of White Widow that was grown in a slightly different environment. Perhaps two plants and the grower was experimenting with different ways to raise WW. I only say this because the buds are both BRIGHT green, have similar orange hairs but JH has a higher concentration of crystals.

Due to the smushing, you could actually see flat, shiny layers over the JH and the bud leaves glistened. I actually kind of like the bud being compressed because it's easier to work with then an uncompressed, still sticky bud.

All in all I feel like this is quality. I only smoked half of each over two days and I am excited to pack a few bowls with both here soon and just relax on my last day off.

Thanks cap'n for a quality sample and I hope my advice doesn't come off as rude or pretentious.

And I''ll get some pics up once I figure out how to scrub meta data off pix.

It wasn't rude or pretentious at all.  I found it quite constructive actually.  As for the bag with a small amount of air shipping method, I actually read this too but it was after shipping the samples.  I think I will begin implementing something like this in the future.  I've been torn about the printed labels vs handwritten due to different discussions here in the forums.  However, it seems that people are leaning more toward the printed so there is a high probability I will be running with that on the next shipment.

The input on the JH vs the WW actually surprised me.  I though it was going to be the other way around but you are the 2nd person to tell me this.  Thanks for sampling and reviewing dudeguy and I appreciate your input!

Hey Jack.

I've worked my way through the white widow. Here are my impressions.

The packaging was the first thing I noticed. The buds were very compressed. There was more there
than they looked like. This might be off putting for some buyers but I recognize it as purely a vanity concern.

I think there are ways to ship bud uncompressed.

Next came the aromas. The WW and the JH had distinctly different smells. I would say the Jack Horror
came off as a little bitter smelling, and the WW was more fruity. They both definitely smelled nice.

They both also look nice. Both strains are similar in appearance. They both look like they have glitter on them
from the abundance of crystals which got compressed. I feel like a huge difference between many
different weed vendors is the quality of the way they are dried. Too wet and the weed becomes difficult to smoke.
Too dry and the weed burns way too fast. I don't know much about the drying and curing process personally, I've
just smoked alot of weed.

The white widow was nearly perfect. I would say the bud was just a touch on the wet side, but still quite smokeable.
When it's not overkill like that it helps me to stretch out the bud more.

And this really went a long ways. I got a decent four bowlpacks out of that tiny, compressed looking half gram.
And the bowl yielded a sufficient number of hits.

This weed will most definitely become a great value for the money, as long as its not like 70 bucks an eighth.

The taste was delicious. I've never tried a white widow before. Definitely fruiter than some of the OG strains I've been trying lately
(excepting the Fleetwood which I found quite fruity). Tasted like your standard dank, a little on the fruity side.

The buzz was very acceptable. A little creeperish my first time, but that seemed to go away when my system adapted to it.
I wonder if this might be because this weed has a different ratio of cannabinoids to THC?

When it hit it felt very head centric, and less body centric, though not completely ignoring the body, I could still do stuff after
smoking this, and I was able to organize my thought processes better than with other strains. I felt very clear minded, without
sacrificing the buzz.

Duration was a little short. Most of the time I feel really good weed for a solid three hours the first time I smoke it (not
completely feel, but there are remnants of the buzz as time goes on, ya know what I mean?) This one I was repacking the
bowl after about an hour, maybe an hour and fifteen minutes. But potency was strong. I felt the weed really good during that
hour. And I very much enjoyed the buzz. I saved a bowlpack of it for coming down off a roll and it really helps with that.
Made me a little tired but thats to be expected given the conditions. Don't worry, I didn't smoke any of it while I was rolling,
only before, and a small bowlpack the next day. I wanted to give you unaltered results.

All in all the white widow was a solid B/B+ (don't treat this like an easy breezy high school B, treat this like a hard earned
collegiate B).

I really appreciate the opportunity to sample your wares, and I hope you find this critique of use to you. You will hear from me very soon about the JH.

Hey there Jack,

Sorry about the delayed response. Life is busy and stuff.

Got around to paying real mind to what I thought about the Jack Horror. It's better this way anyway because hindsight when talking about how good any given weed is always more accurate if you ask me.

The Jack Horror was just great. Smoking this showed me I was wrong about the White Widow, I no longer think it was a question of the drying process, I think it was simply a matter of strain difference for me. Everything about the Jack Horror was perfect.

The smell and taste was more bitter or spicy than the white widow. As far as that goes I actually liked the white widow better. But the Jack Horror burned easier, was just the right dryness, and it got me high as fuck. A well rounded too, all the things I typically enjoy about marijuana were included. It was a nice even distribution of head buzz and body buzz.

I was taking one hitters, then forgetting to repack them. Buzz was hard hitting and long lasting.

I had never tried either strain before (to my knowledge), and to be honest, the JH was what I expected the WW to be based on reputation alone. You did a really great job with the JH Jack! A+ I'm paying real mind to scoring some more when it gets listed.

I'd be interested in receiving a sample! I'm somewhat new here but the transactions I've had so far have been flawless, it would be awesome to keep the streak going. Definitely would send some honest reviews your way

I wasn't successful in getting the buds to decompress.  Unfortunately, this means I probably can't take decent pics of the products.

They were probably very pretty (still have wonderful color!) prior to the compression.

With that being said, I'll post a review tonight of at least one of the strains and hopefully the other shortly thereafter.

Communication: CJ was quick and responsive when it came to PMs - great job here.

Score: 5/5

Shipping/Packaging: After ordering, product was promptly marked "In Transit".  Took about 3 days to get to the East Coast.  Packaging did the job, in the case of stealth and odor.  Unfortunately the buds arrived really crushed.  I tried to decompress them, but were pretty flat.  CJ has already stated that he plans on fixing this going forward!

Score: 4/5

Product:  Samples of White Widow and Jock Horror were sent.  I'll be reviewing the Jock Horror today.

Visual: Mixture of medium and dark greens, covered with lots of brown/orange hairs and trichromes.

Aroma: Subtle earthy smell, hint of skunk.

Smoke: It was like smoking a ninja - super smooth and almost no flavor.

High:  Euphoric, energetic, functional!  Within five minutes, it felt like my head was steadily increasing in weight and I was becoming topheavy.  It was pretty much like being a helium balloon that has been tied to a chair.  You've got a really big mental high going on, but you're also very grounded at the same time.  I could see this being a great morning/afternoon smoke or when you wanted to still be able to get stuff done after smoking.

Score: 5/5

OVERALL:  CaptainJack has a good product, and once he can address the issue of compression I'll have no problem suggesting that everyone check him out.  The Jock Horror is a really fun strain!

Score: 14/15

Today I am reviewing CapnJack's Jock Horror and White Widow strains of cannabis. I'm going to do this in a number of different categories.

The Seller's Communication is great, he is always quick with a reply.

The Seller's Packaging surprised even me. Maybe go with printed labels, but I also think that hand-written packages get through better.

The Seller's Product is, as was said above, Jock Horror and White Widow. I will be comparing these two strains against each other.

The smell of the weed for both is very similiar, very citrius-like. Which is why I labeled the bottles I put them into. I smoked and vaped both of them and they gave off a lovely DANK smell.

Look;
JH: Was more dense but covered in a clear coating from the compressed trichomes. A lot of orange threads.
WW: The white widow was very large and like the JH, fairly compressed. I could tell that it would have been a very fluffy bud, though.

Shape;
JH: Small, round, very tightly packed.
WW: Large, as I said above, tons of orange threads everythwere.

Stickyness;
Both of them were sticky, very easy to feel when handling it.

Feel of the smoke;
JH: This one burned much harder when I packed it into a bowl. I much prefer to vape it.
WW: Whereas with the White widow, I'm fine using it either way.

As for the high, it's like swimming among clouds or something. Very euphoric for the White Widow, pretty buzzed and excited with the Jock Horror. I honestly recommend both.

Just listed some 1/8ths.  Here are the links: (JH) oos at the moment (WW) http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/silkroad/item/b5645087f9  From what I'm seeing, they are lower than most listings.

Buds won't be compressed for these mailings (thanks for the tips from those who reviewed) and printed labels will be used.

Post by: qwerfdsa on June 22, 2012, 01:01 am
Finallyyyyyyyyy tried out the White Widow.

Looks: Very similar to the Jock Horror in appearance, but darker greens and a more orange/brown hairs.
Aroma:  Slightly earthy and a tiny bit of sweet.
High:  Directly to the brain/shoulders!  Definitely a floaty, head in the clouds, euphoric and happy stone.  Put me in a great mood, even though I've been pretty down lately.  I would save this for a morning/afternoon smoke.

Awesome product!
