Title: NW Nugz - Vendor Review Thread - :-)
Post by: NW Nugz on February 04, 2013, 09:20 am
Welcome to NW Nugz Review Pages :-)   
*****************************************************************************************************
Most recent News is likely to be found in the last few posts of this thread.

I just joined BMR with the same vendor name.
http://5onwnspjvuk7cwvk.onion/index.php

I'd guess people can message me there. If not, see
http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=116945.msg1583002#msg1583002
 as a backup approach.



If you are having trouble logging into SR, see my tips below.
 Added a list of growers and the strains they have supplied to SR here in post #2. i don't know if I will keep it updated if I get busy.
We ship with MBBs for top of the line stealth.
We have received glowing reviews below. :-) "it's incredible weed for an incredible price" and "an absolutely excellent experience with NW Nugz" are some of our favorite quotes. Thanks so much to the reviewers for taking the time to comment on their experiences.

We are new to SR but not to Farming great buds. We intend to be a favorite vendor by providing excellent service, great products and accurate descriptions. We expect to be offering medical-grade marijuana grown indoors by professional growers. We only ship within the USA.

************ Tips for accessing Silk Road when it is hard to get onto due to Tor Network congestion ***********
For those having trouble logging into SR, realize it may take multiple tries and expect more trouble during the USA-daytime. I have been able to get on SR regularly. No trouble vending effectively when SR is up.
The tips and tricks:

Make sure silkroad is allowed on noscript (may not really matter)
Go to a Https website (you trust) in a browser tab to make sure you have a good Tor connection.
Once it loads fully, then, pretty quickly attempt to load SR on a different tab.
Once you do so, do Not look at any other tab until SR loads. Keep you mouse curser on the page SR is about to load on.
Keep the cursor moving on that page (apparently, if you click over to another tab or stop moving your cursor, The page gives up trying as hard to load as it assumes you are not really there anymore).
Be patient and keep trying if it does not work. I don't think clicking "try again" (on a failed connection page) works as well as hitting a link/bookmark, or, "go" or "enter" in the address bar. It is annoying to be patient, but, if you get in it is usually a lot quicker afterwords.
If this is not working, even when you are patient, you can try right clicking the green onion icon to try a "New Identity".

If you get to the log in page and the captcha has letters but no numbers, reload the page until it has both.
Once you are in, stay active or you may start to get a slower and slower connection. If that happens, be patient and speeds should pick up again.
If SR gets really, really slow; look forward to getting logged out and having to re-log in. I think of that as SR (or Tor?) clearing out the bots. Afterwards things usually run fast again.

*******************************************************************************
Strains NW Nugz is trying to offer here, that may not have been available or written about on the internet before NW Nugz brought them to SR :-):

******* "EMP":
Our most commonly offered Strain is "EMP" and is often provided by our In-House grower HeadLight(tm) (a very good indoor bud grown in soil without pests or pesticides applied). Dense buds are sativa dominant with a good kick. Not an especially strong smelling variety.
Here is our latest favorite fan-picture of the EMP:
http://xqz3u5drneuzhaeo.onion/users/qicpic/files/8uh.jpg
The "EMP" variety is rumored to be a Manatuska Thundafuk (-cross?) seedling selection. Original seedling selected and named "EMP" in Oregon, USA. Some say it is not very Manatuska-like. We look forward to comments from the SR community.
Leafly.com comment on Alaskan Thunder Fuck:
"Alaskan Thunder Fuck is a strong sativa that will have you feeling the effects soon after exhale.  Can also be known as Manatuska Thunder Fuck because it originates from the Manatuska Valley in Alaska."

******* "Purple HogTrain":
A selected seedling of "The Hog" (from Kentucky Indica) x Trainwreck.
An always-popular local strain that is also known as "reliable" for growers.
Creation of the variety appears to have been a group effort by Bacon Boy, Hillbilly Clan's head grower and "The Smuggler" who brought the Hog seeds from Euorpe hidden in an unmentionable location. Another original seedling male from "The Hog" (from Kentucky Indica) x Trainwreck seedling male, that has purple tendencies, is currently being crossed by the Hillbilly Clan to other varieties.

******* "Bacon":
"Purple HogTrain" x selected seedling male of "Deadhead OG"
Bred by Bacon Boy. Named "Bacon" as "Dead Hog" seemed less suitable. This is a bit af a finnicky plant that is rumored to provide superior rewards when grown well. Headlight says it is not as easy as usual to get high cutting-survival rates and the first time he took cuttings, even the mother died from the experience. He is growing a small amount and NW Nugz is working to provide some to SR. I'll try to get more details about how pollen was obtained for this cross since I think true "Deadhead OG" would be female (unless it is a seed strain rather than a named cutting-propogated variety).

From Leafly.com:
""Trainwreck" Cannabis Strain
Trainwreck is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain that hits you as hard as a freight train that you don't see coming.  Burns quick and produces thick smoke that will almost certainly get you coughing.   People swear by Trainwreck for its pain relief and other medicinal qualities.

"Deadhead OG" was bread by The Cali Connection and is a 60/40 hybrid of '91 Chemdawg X SFV OG.  Grows to medium height and typically finishes flowering between 65 and 75 days.)"

******* Currently Unnamed cross:
"Blue Dragon" x "Blackberry Kush" male
Bob Bitchin provided the seed without much background info.. I'll try to get more details.
3 female seedlings are being tested by Headlight and may get a name if any seem valuable.

From Leafly.com:
"Blue Dragon Cannabis Strain (Hybrid)
Blue Dragon is usually so dark purple that it looks black.  This weed has aromatic hints of fruity pebbles and grapes.

Blackberry Kush Cannabis Strain (Indica)
This mostly indica strain is a mix of Afghani and Blackberry strains and has beautiful dark purple buds with orange hairs. Plants will flower at 7-8 weeks and are not particularly high yielders, but the dense, hard nugs have crystals throughout. Blackberry Kush tends to have a hashy, jet fuel smell and taste that is balanced by sweet berries. Blackberry Kush is often recommended for the treatment of pain thanks to its strong indica body effects."

I'd wait for the package to arrive, of course. But, I was just thinking whoever finalizes first will get to say they were my first customer. I have been dreaming of this venture going very well and me being a famous soldier in the war on drugs someday. Grandiose dreaming of course. But, you never know ;-)
And, we will get to write the history of the war after we win :-)  NWN

hey NWN - just popped in to say that even though I haven't gotten my pack yet, I already like you more and more. I saw the post you made over on NWD's thread and I think that's just super stand-up of you. Not to mention, you guys are brothers-in-arms and I bet not too far from each others' operating bases. It's always great as an SR buyer to see vendors like you guys being good and helping one another.

rock on, good sir. can't wait to toke your stuff. :)

Planning on selling LB+ packs?
Title: Re: NW Nugz - Vendor Review Thread - :-)
Post by: NW Nugz on February 09, 2013, 07:14 am
Thanks Ramrugger :-)
I think packs could show up at any time. I am thinking earlier in bigger city areas.

As for larger orders: You can usually order more than one of a listed item, of course. I am currently very nervous about larger orders as I have said. Having no reputaion/seller stats is a vulnerable position to be in.
As for offering bigger amounts in listings: I don't have more than a few LB's of the HeadLight EMP strain available. Once this shows it can work financially, I hope to be able to source somewhat larger batches. If I know anyone with significantly larger amounts I could put up here, I do not know that yet. I have not really been asking around like that. Once I go from a seller to a buyer in my local circles, I suspect I may tap into some great opportunities. So far, tho, everything is so on the down-low, we don't know much and we don't tell much either ;-)

Shipping tips wanted!

If you have seen great packaging, I'd like to hear tips (as personal messages here or on SR). I have been scouring the forum for ideas and hope to up my game regularly. I hear people talk about great ideas  sellers use. I hope buyers will send me ideas privatly (since details should not be posted publicly).

Thanks, NWN

Post by: monrovia on February 09, 2013, 06:21 pm
So I got my sample, today, and I'm very impressed to say the least. The "2 gram sample" ended up weighing a 2.8, which I am very thankful for. This was definitely the best deal on bud I've ever gotten in my life. But anyways, here goes....

**Shipping 5/5** Was processing for 2 or 3 days, which is fairly reasonable anyway, but considering NW is just getting started and all, the very minor delay was more than understandable. It was definitely actually in the mail once it was marked 'in transit,' as it got to me 2 days later.

**Packaging 5/5** From the exterior, the package is very professional and legit looking. Interior could use a bit of work(I'll send PM's if I think of anything), but it's fine for domestic. Product is put in a zip-lock bag and then triple vac sealed. Couldn't smell a thing neither before or after I opened the package...

EDIT: Did some research. I can't give details because it would be too much info, but I discovered something that let me to want to change my stealth rating to a 5/5, so I did.

**Product 5/5** ...However, once that last vac seal bag got cut open, the smell went right through the zip-lock back and smacked me in the face. I disagree with what it says on the listing about the smell not being strong. I think it's pretty pungent. It has a pretty pleasant smell of fruit with a hint of ammonia. The buds are a very light lime green with orange, yellow, white, and a few dark red hairs. The trichromes are plentiful and beautiful. I mean it, this is some frosty ass bud. The buds are really dense also, I couldn't tell that I got so much extra until it was on the scale, the readout really took me by surprise. The smoke is a bit harsh on the way in(and out sometimes,) but leaves a fiercely sweet, pleasant aftertaste in your mouth after the exhale. The high definitely reflects the sativa dominance. I feel no lethargy whatsoever(T+1 hour) and feel a relatively clear headed mental stimulation.

 I think this is definitely the product of a grower who is getting seeds/clones with incredible genetics, and knows what the fuck he is doing. And considering the quality of the bud, for the prices NW Nugz is charging, you are getting a steal.

**Communication 5/5** Sent some PM's about some relatively unimportant things, but the responses were very quick, and NW seems to conduct himself in a professional manner.

***Overall 5/5*** To make it as succinct as I can, it's incredible weed for an incredible price. Depending on where you are in the country, you could get a QP and mark up each ounce by like 75% and it would still be a reasonable price for the quality. I would never go that big but I just thought I would throw it out there for someone who would.

Post by: ramrugger on February 09, 2013, 08:55 pm
listen NWN. if you're flirting with me, it's working.

I was one of the extremely fortunate reviewers selected for a sample of this fantastic specimen of cannabis science. from the very start, NWN was incredibly friendly and communicative - he had all his ducks in a row, his PGP set up and all that good stuff seasoned buyers insist on. though a slightly longer ship time than expected, it got coast to coast in ~4 business days, and arrived safely in my post blending in easily with the everyday junk.

let me just take a moment to comment on the packaging. like I said, perfectly beige with the regular mail, and labelled appropriately. very effective packaging - no smell detection at all until the last layer of defense, and I personally appreciate it when a vendor gives me a reminder of what strain I'm smoking on the packaging. I know some of my colleagues here will disagree, but I feel that it can be "risked" if it's on the innermost and hardest to see layer. I digress.

had to check my scale for accuracy a few times, because homeboy told me to expect 2 grams and my scale keeps showing 3.55 - someone knows the real way into a woman's heart. the product is also perfectly intact thanks to smart packaging, and it's quite fresh considering the trip it took (I know I don't look that good after a cross-country flight ;)). I'm sampling the HeadLight EMP, a beautiful light green flower with petals of pale yellow here and there, and plentiful brown pistils.

I could tell immediately upon grinding it just how fresh and how good this stuff was. as the vendor states, I don't get an overwhelming smell, but certainly a pleasant one; lightly pine with a bit of a kick at the end. it's so fresh it doesn't grind into crumbs like most bud - it's still grinding into petals and shake.

the smoke is fantastic for an anxiety sufferer like me; it's heady enough that I'm not constantly on edge, but nowhere near laying me out or even making me particularly sluggish. after reading my buddy monrovia's review above, I took a risk and am hitting this bowl before taking my pup to her training tonight. I'm pleased to report that I'm experiencing a similar high - I'll definitely be able to be out and about with this in me, and I'm betting it'll make the world a bit easier to tolerate, too. ;)

overall, an absolutely excellent experience with NW Nugz, and I know that if quality and service remain at this caliber, I'll be back many more times. thanks again, and welcome to the Road NWN!

Review of NW Nugz: Strain EMP

My experience with NW was like no other I have had so far on the road.  NW contacted me as a reliable reviewer and offered a 2 gram sample for 5$, and if I didn't have the 5 then he would let me sample anyway.  This alone shows that NW is dedicated to getting his name out there and spreading the word about his dank buds.  My sample was shipped before I even paid him (which I did the next day) and it arrived in two days, and during a snowstorm!  I told NW I would compensate for shipping plus extra if the quality of the buds were good since his communication was excellent and he treats his clients with respect.  In the end I sent NW his shipping compensation as I was more than satisfied with my order.

After receiving the package on Saturday afternoon which had good stealth (NW check for a SR PM I send you a pretty detailed message on packaging), I immediately opened it up and to my surprise it weighed out to more than 2.5 grams... for 5 bucks! NW that was a very generous and much appreciated sample!  NW communicated with me beforehand and described the bud as being high quality but not too loud.  I personally value the smell or loudness of the bud to be of utmost importance because everyone wants the bud that stinks up the whole house when you open the bag even though I know smell does not always indicate potency.  Anyway despite NW's warning that it did not smell that strong, I enjoyed the aroma, a classic mid/top shelf cannabis smell.  The buds I received were all pretty equal in size around .7g, light green in color and covered in a nice layer of crystals.  When smoked the taste was much stronger than the smell and I could tell there was a nice THC content from the quick onset of a buzz after a few rips.  The flavor on the exhale is slightly sweet and peppery and will definitely have you in a coughing fit with a huge rip on the bong!

I enjoyed this strain of EMP a lot and still have a bit left thanks to the generosity of NW Nugz!  I look forward to more strains in the future and possibly larger listings in the future once you get settled in and established as one of the roads new great cannabis vendors!

Ohh yeah and I FE'd becoming the first according to NW Nugz so lets get this war on drugs started my man.. one nug at a time!

     Review: HEADLIGHT

Appearance:5/5
     Super nice and enticing appeal to this bud here. Was drenched up and looking very light toned lime green with light hues of purple or blue, has this nice white shift of trichome coverage with a nice sheen to the crystal coat. The bud is a medical looking art piece. Apparent as it's covered with alot of trich's its easy to assume that the bud has that white crystal coat look like white widow, or its cross of that alaskan thunda-F.

Image Link:
  http://postimage.org/image/elqm4t18b/

Smell: 5/5
 Has a nice strong cannabis tone over the famous sweet like floral scent that this strain gives. Its very reminiscent to the lineage its described as, so this batch is a definite winner!

Touch/Feel: 5/5
 Nice strong structure to these flowers ! Very nice and condense with a lot of bud calyxes that felt to the human touch as like if it were glue :O Really sticky factor , letting me know the watts that went into this were good. I love hand crushing buds and this was no different, i was enjoying its bubbly bud like pieces , that are easy to roll up.

Taste:5/5
   Nice filling smoke, very pungent, and brute, yet has a nice undertone of a sort of sweet fruity factor.

Effect: 5/5
  Really euphoric and energizing, very uplifting and organic as it felt, you can almost get a cerebral exercise with enough smoked to get you tired and shit faced. :))

Packaging/Shipping: 5/5
 Nice shipping time. Perfect seals applied with above and beyond going with 3 air seals. No smell at all. The postage was perfect and printed label on point, with postage exact. The Package was protected in side with shock absorption foam a new to my findings her on SR. :)

     
Overall: 5/5
 
 Awesome prices, for different options available to all price ranges possible. Vendor had good communication and was on time with everything and good turnaround time to questions asked. Going far if quality can stay in this range

Thanks for the very nice reviews Metaphoe and Norseman17. 4 of 6 samples reviewed so far :-).
I really like that reliable reviewers thread!

So, I was told the EMP is not a 'Matanuska Thundafuk' (and that that's how to spell it) by someone who seemed knowledgable about strains. I don't really know and wonder if any reviewers happen to be familiar with real M. T. enough to comment on what the EMP seems like in that context.
NWN
Title: Re: NW Nugz - Vendor Review Thread - :-)
Post by: norseman17 on February 10, 2013, 10:49 pm
I wasn't really familiar with the true MT strain it seems that it is either very illusive or no longer exists, at least in its purest original form since it was originally cloned from a single strain.  In my opinion there are probably many MT hybrids out there and this may be one as it was a great smoke, maybe even the real deal MT!  If you really did get MT you stumbled on a real rarity having stayed purebread for over 40 years. Either way you spread the wealth to us clients/reviewers, so thanks!

Post by: NW Nugz on February 12, 2013, 05:35 am
Origin of 'EMP':

The rumor I heard was it came in a batch of expensive seeds from Canada. I'd guess from the famous seed selling guy up there. I don't think it was supposed to be the long lost rare Matanuska parent plant. I think the guy who bought it thought the guy selling the seeds had hi prices in general. Then, the seeds were grown out and this one was selected as the best of the seedlings.

The name was chosen by a grower here and is intended to suggest "Electro-Magnetic Pulse" . One of the energy waves that emit from Nukes exploding. There is more to the story of the name being chosen. That info is not available as it includes personal info and is not especially interesting.

I PM'd Neti with an offer, however, Ram is correct the days of $5 samples have past for the moment. And, I really only offered those to people with a demonstrated reputation for providing reviews.  Once I go through a bunch of EMP successfully, I intend to get a new variety and will need it reviewed I'm sure :-).

Review of NW Nugz and their Headlight EMP:

I received a VERY generous sample of EMP from NW NUGZ this week and after an insane work week I have a chance right now to take a close look and take a taste of this fine looking Sativa heavy hybrid.

Pictures:
http://wuakd3inzzy5iz4w.onion/images/80cdc19a62d076e7f1fee5e4ecde094b.jpg
http://wuakd3inzzy5iz4w.onion/images/dc2265b3c0fd0f514d5e585755c4fbd0.jpg

Communications:
Really quick and professional in PM and on the forums.  Within hours of our PMs there was a stealth listing up, and the next day it was in transit.
Then on the forums They've been patient and cool.

Shipping:
Fast reponse times from the order and then fast shipping once it was in transit.  Just 3 or 4 days total from west coast to east coast US.

Packaging:
A little different than what I've seen before, and actually really good.  Definitely went the extra mile for quality packaging and it makes a big difference in both the stealth and the condition the buds were in.  There was not even a hint of compression on these buds.  They look like they came off the cover of high times or something.... but I'm getting ahead of myself.
Small USPS white Box (instead of bubble mailer) with professional looking printed labels.  Inside there was padding to keep things still and a nondescript visual barrier.  No smell whatsoever inside or outside the box.
Inside the visual barrier is three layers of standard heat sealed bag, with enough air pressure inside each one to really pad the bud and keep it in pristine shape. 
No smell that I could detect inside the 1st and 2nd layer, but on the final layer I could JUUUUST start to detect a hint of weed smell. 
Inside the final heat lap layer is a nicely labeled half size ziplock filled with a very generous portion of this EMP, with a nice strong scent.

Quality:
The nugs were big and plentiful and fluffy looking and oh so white and frosty.  I am inspired and might get out the camera and try to take some pics.  The bag was full of orange hairs, and the buds vary in color from very light green to darker green, all the way up to snow white with frost in places. 
The smell is not as overpowering as some I've had - its more subtle. Very sweet and fruity and musky, but not super strong smelling and doesn't fill the room when you open the bag.  The buds seem nicely cured, not overly dried out and not crispy. soft and spongy to the squeeze and only really sticky when you pull it apart.
Really nicely trimmed by the way.
Broke off a chunk, and it breaks apart quite easily.  Decided to test it in my Herbalaire vape at about 375F.

High:
ON the first small inhale I could tell this was special stuff.  On the exhale it was really sweet like a weed flavored candy or something.
Second hit, a bit bigger... feels smooth, tastes good and yeah, a really nice exhale flavor.  A few seconds after the second inhale I could already feel it in my temples and coming up my back and shoulders.  Uplifting, heady, but still a nice little body effect.
3rd hit... unintentionally HUGE.  Oh man. You know its dank if a regular hit on a vape can make you cough out. Or maybe I'm a willow, I don't know.  Anyway, wow.  By the time the 3rd hit was going out, this stuff was hitting nicely.  Strong body buzz in the chest and face and eyes.
So - yeah great flavor, beautiful bud, fast smooth nice heady sativa high.

Overall:
Very very good experience.
NW Nugz = Great communication, great packaging + stealth, fast shipping, beautiful bud, well cared for in every detail. 
EMP = niiiiiice. One of the prettiest I've seen great flavor and a fantastic high.

Will be back.

No no - thank YOU.  :)

Seriously, I don't want to sound too biased, but that was some of the best bud I've had in a long time and after that 3rd hit I was done for the night. The high lasted many hours.  I may have to stock up on the EMP for a rainy day.

By the way, I was wrong about the smell.  When I came into my "review room" this morning, the whole room smelled like a sweet weed confectionery shop. I'm going to have to get that baggie into a stash jar pronto!

I'll assume you are referring to the package arriving :-) 

Thanks!   I do prefer to do it so they can open it up and still think it looks legit :-)

So I received a PM from NWN on 2/5 inviting me to partake in a sample of EMP by Headlight owing to my presence on BlaghRawr's reliable reviewers' list. I replied in an earnest affirmative and was sent the sample link. Unfortunately, the sample cost $5, and I only have some $.90 in my SR account and don't have much disposable income so I had to decline. Then, NWN went above and beyond (compared to other vendors similar situations) by sending me an additional link for a 100% free sample with the idea being that I could get him/her back later (or not; NWN didn't seem to care much), which I do intend to do as soon as I can get $100 to throw in my account. I believe I placed the order on Wednesday and it was marked in transit Thursday 5/7. To my delight (I had smoked the last of my stash on Thursday), the sample awaited me on Monday 2/11. Packaging was professional and basically par for the course for other cannabis deals, vac-sealed and the like with little attempt at actual "stealth" (making it look like something it's not).  The sample was listed at 2 g, but I'm convinced it was strapped up more than that, based on eyeballing it, and the fact that I only just finished it yesterday. 2g has never lasted me anywhere near two weeks.

As to the weed itself, the removal of the vac sealing brought a pungent whiff of an earthy, sweet aroma, surprising given that the vendor had couched the strain as not particularly smelly. Indeed, it isn't overwhelmingly loud, but there is plenty of the piney THC scent with hints of anise and a lingering funky cheese, mixed with a limeade-like fruitiness that is difficult to place. I finally bought a magnifying glass so I broke it out to take a closer look. The greens are smooth and flawless and range from light green to mantis, with spots of indigo and every surface coated with gleaming trichomes and vibrant light-orange hairs. The bud is a feast for the eyes and I can scarcely imagine finer bag appeal. A squeeze test revealed a noticeable compression and fluffiness; these flowers aren't quite up to the platinum standard of density, but this may have more to do with the dominant sativa genetics rather than any deficiency in growing or processing; here's hoping that the breeder continues to refine the genetics here. The trim is flawless and there is no evidence of mold or chemical burn, to be expected of NWN's organic cultivation methods. This bud is so sticky with resin that it stuck to my thumb after I squeezed it and grinding it proved to be difficult as a result. Kief didn't immediately cascade into the tray; I attribute this to the stickiness. By the time I finished the sample, though, the tray was as coated as to be expected. Also, the sample was dry but not perfectly so, so drying out in my fridge may have helped in this regard.

Smoking brought a caramel-like burnt sugar taste along with the piney fruitiness, and the smoke was smooth. This is where organic cultivation really shines: it tastes better, it smokes better. The high isn't much of a creeper like many sativas, but it is forceful and head-centric, allowing a nice brain massage and contented relaxation. The anti-headache and appetite bolstering properties, among the most important attributed of weed for me, were ample and satisfactory; I was almost entirely without headaches over the time I had this weed. The high is eminently sociable, and creative, which are to attributes that normally go together. It made me want to rap, and rap I would, and well. It tended to blast through tolerance better than most strains; I smoke three times a day: wake and bake, 4:20, and miscellaneous, and essentially the same amount each time. Every session I could tell unambiguously that I was high, which is more than can be said for some kushes in my experience. The high was also long-lived, with buzzes stretching into the four-hour zone.

In short, EMP is among the finest weed I have had from SR, and NW Nugz is a super reasonable, stand up vendor with prompt communication and great shipping habits. If I were a moneyed type of gentleman I would certainly be sending out on the reg for this sweet sweet organic Pacific NW herb. I expect great things in the future from this vendor and wish the best of luck going forward.

Thanks for the great review nitpi950. All the reviewers we sent samples to have now replied here. The BlaghRawr's reliable reviewers' list really came through for us.  I think the new home of that thread is now "Ballz'n'Blargh's Reliable Reviewers" here:
http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=117957.0
I agree with nitpi950 about my stealth needing improvement when I mailed those first samples. It was probably only up to par with the average vendor. I have upped my stealth quite a bit since the beginning of the month :-)
I also should disclose that I have not claimed the current offering is completly organic: "grown in soil without pests or pesticides applied" the listing says. It has not been sprayed with anything. The fertilization, however, is a mix of organic and chemical fertilizers. Toward the end of the crop, the chemical fertilizer is cut out and plain water is mostly applied. A real "flush" is not claimed as we dont think it is easy to properly flush really large pots of soil.
This grower (HeadLight) uses a system he calls "The Bruteous Method" (TBM) and grows each plant in a 33gal trash can (on wheels) with a 1000w light for each plant. He plans to make up an E-Book to sell on SR explaining the details of TBM which was designed to allow significant continuous production from a smaller number of plants (to stay within particular legal requirements) than the usual approaches.   NWN

Domzilla2428 PM'd me and suggested I post his/her review 4 days ago:

"So I FE'ed for a large purchase from a up and coming vendor.
My package was lost in transit ( not due to vendor ) and within a couple days, it was taken care of and a new one was on the way.
The bud is magnificent, a pure thing of beauty.
The bag was over weight by a long shot.
BUY FROM HIM...THIS IS THE VENDOR"

First of all, I'd like to apologize for how long it took me to post this review.  I had it done earlier, but either the forum itself, tor, or my own computer prevented me from connecting to the forums once it came time to actually post it.  So I copied it to notepad and saved it for later.

I'd just like to throw another super positive review on the ever-amassing pile.

3 days ago I contacted NW Nugz because I was interested in ordering some EMP.  His prices were low enough that what I was able to afford was substantially more than a quarter ounce, but a little below a half ounce.

NWN responded to my messages very quickly, and set up a custom order for me for 13g of EMP.  He was extremely nice and courteous the whole time, and bent over backwards to get me exactly what I was looking for.

My order shipped out the following day.  It arrived on my doorstep today, only 2 days after it was put in the mail, and only 3 since I placed the order. 10/10

The packaging was totally fine.  There was some nice stuff he did with the label to make it seem even more legitimate.  The outer vacuum sealed layer also had some more tricks to make it seem legitimate.  The product was double vacuum sealed, and then in a ziploc baggie (with a "Headlight(tm) * EMP *" label and a handwritten note).  The outer-most layer was opaque, though the secondary or innermost layer was transparent.  This is of course not an issue because if they are opening that outer layer, you're fucked whether it's opaque or not.  His packaging was not quite as immaculate as NorCalKing (who has the best I've seen so far), but as NWN is a much newer vendor with a relatively tiny number of transactions under his belt, this is more than understandable.  And while his packaging isn't the best I've seen, that in no way means it's not great.  It's totally fine, there is no chance any smell or anything is getting out.  The tricks to make it seem more legitimate were a nice touch, that I haven't seen before.  9/10

Visually, the nugs are light and airy.  Very sativa-like, not like the tight and dense buds of an indica.  They are definitely frosty, without even using any sort of flashlight or magnification, it's clear that there are trichromes all over this sticky bud.  Once I turned on the LED light on my phone and shone it on them, they outright sparkled.  A mix of orange and white hairs, with a light green color.  Bag appeal is probably a 8.5/10.  Once I ground it up, this stuff produces a LOT of kief.  I use a Space Case 2pc grinder.  This strain produced the second most kief of the strains I've ground up.  Also the nugs are, for lack of a better word, rock hard.  They are not squishy or flexible at all.  I think this means it's more dried or cured than other strains I've had, which frankly I prefer since, with a vaporizer, the drier the better :)

The smell in bud form is mild, vaguely herb-like to my nose.  Definitely a good smell.  This bud won't stink up your whole room, but if you get up close and personal with it, it smells great.  Once I ground it up, the smell, while still mild, was very sweet.  It reminded me of peaches, or pineapple, something fruity and sweet.  Great smell. 8/10

The taste is again mild, no surprise with the way it smelled.  It's a bit piny, and a little sweet.  Not too much in the taste department, but again, nothing bad at all. 7/10

I took a single hit of this stuff off of my MFLB (native mode, power adapter, mid power) just before writing this review.  The effects are clearly sativa, I don't feel any couch lock or anything like that, no desire to nap.  I feel like my brain is focused on what I'm doing... fuck I shouldn't write this while high.  It's definitely a sativa dominant effect, heady, euphoric, creative, and energetic.  It's that wonderful feeling where everything is great, and you're continually fascinated by everything that you become aware of.  9.5/10

Based on the following "highness scale" http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6S3aZju6xtI/S9Xltz0JB_I/AAAAAAAAAAU/TW6Oyud_WUk/s1600/1266456116438.jpg

The single hit off my MFLB has gotten me to probably a 5.  I'm certainly not tired, but I definitely understand the "slight vibration", and the hard to focus, random thoughts, etc.  No closed eye visuals, though my eyes are open to write this review, so that is certainly part of it.  I've gone to sleep with another sativa strain (Purple Power from NorCalKing), and had closed eye visuals at a similar level of highness.

Conclusion:

NW Nugz has the best online customer service I've had from any vendor in my two months here.  He's attentive, eager to please, and helpful.  He says in his profile he has to hide his dealing from his family or something, and as such he may disappear for hours or days some times, but I never experienced that.  He always replied within a few hours, and was very cool.  He shipped the product the next day, which is basically the fastest anyone can expect someone to ship it out, given I placed the order at maybe 10pm my time.  The product arrived two days later on my door, so I know he shipped it when he said he did.  Packaging was the second best I've seen on the road (out of 4).  The bud is fantastic.  Looks great, smokes great, looks and smell aren't it's strong suits, but they are by no means bad.  I couldn't have been happier with my order from NW Nugz.  I can say with 100% certainty that the next time I'm looking to order some sticky icky, I'm going to first look to NW Nugz.

Scoring:
Customer Service - 10/10
Packaging - 9/10
Product:
  Visuals - 9/10
  Smell - 8.5/10
  Taste - 8/10
  Effects - 9.5/10

Total: 54/60 - Avg: 9/10

EDIT: Just wanted to add some pictures.  Pardon the clearnet link, I don't know any hidden image host services, so I just used imgur.

http://imgur.com/a/x3OHN

The last picture is my favorite.  Just to be clear, these are pictures of what I received in the mail.  These are not provided to me by NW Nugz, or anything like that.  Just my jar, the EMP, and my cell phone as a camera.

Thanks a bunch fl4r3 for that great review :-)

I have been getting so many 5/5 and 10/10's I was starting to wonder if my own reviews were not fabricated or something (kidding, sort of).

I have not tried to post any photos on a photo site yet but here are links I have gathered so far that either seem to work or were recommended by others:

Onion Photo upload sites:

From Caerus: wyxwerboi3awzy23.onion

From anonymouse23:
xqz3u5drneuzhaeo.onion/users/qicpic/
p7d2k2xiioailnuu.onion/

One I found used in my review forum:

Thanks for the links.  Don't think that your 5/5s and 10/5s aren't earned, they are.  I've only dealt with four vendors on the road so far, but you have been my favorite so far.  Not only is your customer service absolutely top shelf, but your prices and product quality are unbeatable.

Here are direct links to my two favorite images from the imgur album, this time on hidden services.

Here's my review of the img hosting hidden services you linked:

IMGuru - http://p7d2k2xiioailnuu.onion/ - Says it works with jpeg and gif, I tried to upload my jpg anyways, didn't work, so I went to another site.

http://wuakd3inzzy5iz4w.onion/ - all it has is an FTP-looking site with a ./ and it just says Index Of.  No real image hosting that I could find.

Hidden Image Site - http://wyxwerboi3awzy23.onion/ - uses 4chans layout, I'm not totally familiar with 4chans layout, on 4chan posts timeout.  decided to look at others, and found qicpic.

QicPic - xqz3u5drneuzhaeo.onion/users/qicpic/ - ended up being my choice.  Provided multiple file selection boxes, so it was much easier to upload multiple images at once.  Supported the .jpg format my files were in.  Uploading was quick, and provided direct links that were easy to copy.

I took a few more pictures when I first got my shipment, but those two were undoubtedly the best :)

The picture you chose as your new fan-pic "favorite", I've shown to a number of people at work, every time they would practically be drooling :)

Got a little bit of a New variety:

Cherry Cheesecake!

This is Tasty and Strong :-)
I tried looking up the variety online for parentage. Did not find it exactly. I'd guess it is another Sativa dominant Variety. I'd say it has a heady high with light to medium body numbing. It is fruity-tasting, very crystal coated and kinda pinkish with purple parts. There is more stem showing in the buds than with the EMP, however, the small budded variety is more to blame for this than the slightly-slacker trim team. The photo is of one of the 4 Oz's on offer and you can see it is not badly trimmed :-) I forgot to ask, but I'm pretty sure it is Organic. I doubt the proper government paperwork was submitted to allow the use of the word "Organic" in this listing. Free the word!

When I saw the plants just before harvest, I had to have some. The buds looked very unusual/colorful from a distance. Reddish pinkish kinda explains it, lol. A curiosity for the growers entertainment and you can kinda see it in the dry product. I was supposed to get a LB of it and somehow it mostly dissapeared before I got any. It is popular here. It is a fast finisher and I dont think it yields a lot and so may not be seen much in the future. I'll try harder to get enough to offer QP's next chance I get.

'Bacon Boy' does good work and I have high hopes of getting more from him very soon :-)

Looks like the Cherry Cheesecake is running out soon. And our Bacon Boy AlienOG connect for today got bought out from under us by his regular buyer that was unhappy he let some Cherry C'cake go. He says he will have Blue Dream and Pineapple in like 14 days and will have some for us. We are not anyone's regular customer yet and Bitcoins are not yet appreciated much by our friends that are just learning about them.

Luckily, we are looking into more options and think we will have some AlienOG and other stuff soon from other sources. I'll update when I know for sure.  NWN

And, if anyone that gets some of the Cherry Cheesecake wanted to comment on it here that would be nice. Does not need to be a full-on review. :-)

Update March 27
 ***No shipping this Thursday afternoon through Friday and maybe Saturday - see below***

    I am slowly creating new listings for some "Alien OG", "Blue Dream" and "Queen". A slow process as SR is very, very slow to accept changes. There is one QP and some smaller stuff of each strain. I will have some regular "EMP" getting listed after that.

***I am going on a 2-night vacation Thursday/Friday*** So order by 6am PST Thursday*** or My next shipping day will probably be Saturday or Monday.***

Most recent News:
    The "Alien OG", "Blue Dream" and "Queen" from  "Hillbilly Clan" is selling out pretty fast. I added some slightly discounted "EMP" QP's. I'll add OZs of that if requested pretty soon. I will get a little Headlight(tm) "EMP" soon and I am looking for more temptations :-).

I noticed you used the word medical and I just want to ask how you personally ensure that it reaches medical standards. What methods do you use to inspect, or test, and what methods do the growers use to ensure a healthy plant?

I noticed it said about a strain that its "pest or pesticide" and that got me worried. Thanks in advance.

The places I mention pests and pesticides is where I am saying there are NONE. If that is not clear somewhere, I'd like to know where so I can fix it.

The word "Medical" is used in many ways by many people. Most of what we offer here is both Medical-quality (high) and grown legally for medical use. NW Nugz strives to offer high-medical-quality and we believe we do it well. I will make another post in a bit with more details on our quality control approaches, and then, another post about plant treatments. Laws relating to growing for medicinal use vary by state. I don't think I need to go into that here. If anyone else wants to make comments on any of these issues, feel free here or elsewhere. It is good to discuss it :-)

Post by: NW Nugz on April 01, 2013, 09:00 am
I noticed you used the word medical and I just want to ask how you personally ensure that it reaches medical standards. What methods do you use to inspect, or test, and...

To start with, we have, so far, only worked with growers we know and trust to care about the consumer. Growing top-end buds indoors is no simple matter. You have to do many things very well. If you mess up any one thing, you lose a lot of quality. So, the people we know who are doing this spend many hours contemplating their methods. We all know people are going to consume the product, so, good people who put a lot of thought into this process are going to be looking for ways to make the end-product as good for you as they can. They also smoke the stuff. The people we deal with don't have one room where they grow the good stuff for themselves and another where they don't care as much.

We have not used any inspection or testing methods beyond a hand-lens and human-sensory-investigation :-). We mostly rely on skilled human-sensory-investigators to examine the goods before we bring them to SR :-). Luckily, many of these experts are available locally (and on SR). Many can be relied upon to give candid reviews. Some will even pay us a small fee to do this investigative work and then they will even provide written results (see "reliable reviewers" on the forum). Most of the small batches we get are probably not going to last long enough to be worth getting a THC/CBD test. We would love to know though, so we might get this done at some point. Maybe we are unsophisticated about the testing potential available and need to learn about it ourselves. We would like to know more about tests other folks use, if any. So, feel free to recommend any you know about. We would assume there are expensive tests that can show the presence of herbicides, pesticides, ... and maybe even the stuff we hear some people spray buds with to make them seem better than they are. We have not looked into such tests as we know our growers well enough to trust them to be honest about what they have done to each crop we bring to SR.

So, we place our trust and faith in good people we already know care about providing a wholesome product. We can understand how that would leave many people concerned about a lack of proof of wholesomeness. Without the proof, we understand it comes down to whether you trust NW Nugz to be careful about who they trust for you. We do care and are working to develop the trust that comes from an ongoing relationship over time.

Our experiences tell us that people (in other fields) who use high-tech methods to show how wonderful their products are, can tell the truth and still mislead. We trust "USDA Organic" less than we trusted regular "Organic", for instance. While the soap-box is out, If you are going to eat (or inhale) something, we think it is better to know your farmer than to know some test results about a product produced by an entity that cares more about shareholder profits than your long term health. Apparently this is a bit of a tangent that may not (yet) fully apply to this conversation. Our point is, we know your farmer if you buy here - and that's about as good as it gets until you meet a good one yourself. Luckily, we are not the only vendors on SR that know good growers and care about their customers. It is a good time to be "on the road" :-). We have a feeling these may be the good 'ol days, NWN

PS  Feel free to ask more specific question(s) if we missed covering something you care about.

... what methods do the growers use to ensure a healthy plant?

NWN Webperson here :-),
I like questions that are so broad I feel I can give most any answer that seems on point to me. I'll assume your not asking about the complicated and extensive details of indoor horticulture and just make a few comments that come to mind:

 First they start with great genetics and healthy pest-free female starts. They grow them with lots of growth food and long hours of light to build up a big set of roots and healthy top growth. I'd say they are going for an unnaturally healthy beginning. In other words, making them happier than they would be in their native climate.

Then, they Shorten the light hours per day to make them think it is time to die soon. They also feed them increasingly unbalanced plant food that basically bloats up the plant parts we like as much as they unnaturally can. Added to these tortures is pollen deprivation so all these females just keep bloating up their female parts and making them increasingly sticky in a valiant (but failed, usually) effort to get pollinated and make seeds. Towards the end different growers have different, often secret, extra tortures they add to increase color(s) and/or bud hardness and/or stickiness... During all the tortures, everything else has to be just right or they don't make it to the end for the tortures of harvest - horrors best not detailed in public ;-).

If I failed to understand the question (quite possible with me), i am sorry i did not respond more appropriately. You could try to ask again. I'm not trying to be annoying with my odd sense of humor :-) I am full of it ;-) You can ask for someone other than me to answer if you prefer. I'll understand, NWN Webperson.

That was brilliantly funny. Thanks for writing this out. ;) I came to this thread to make note of my first transaction with NW Nugz. I am very satisfied! I got some of that EMP. Great smelling, good looking, smokes nicely, shipped discretely, nice price, good communication. What more can you ask for? I must also mention that I first looked to NW Nugz for my needs because of their positive forum presence, and also their quick adoption of MBB technology to provide ultimate stealth. I will only order from cannabis vendors that use MBB's.
Anyway, thanks for the great transaction NW Nugz! Kudos!

I had a wonderful experience from front to back with Nugz. Mind you, this was my very first purchase on the road and I was not disappointed. I'm too tired and still a little buzzed from earlier to write anything long and it would be unnecessary anyhow because it would simply be praise all around. The communication, the speed of the service, the stealth, and the actual product were outstanding for the cost (And they tossed in extra!). I can see why the plant was called "EMP", I felt electrified.

Thanks to the recent posters :-)

I just added a little "Pineapple". I have heard good things about the strain and expect  to get more from another grower soon. It looks very good. I will check it out tonight and give more details soon.

Just had my first complaint about the Headlight EMP:
"...
I'm not saying I'm not happy, but I'd be happier if vendors were honest. Did I mention it smells like green hay?"

I am sorry your first impression is not a happier one. I hope you will like it more after smoking some. I have always said this variety was not a very smelly type. People commenting on my honest opinion about the smell talked me into believing I was too negative in my appraisal and that once crushed or whatever, it was not a problem. So, I changed my comment about it to be less negative. But I can understand the complaint and have always mentioned the lack of good smelliness. I believe I have tried to be very honest and don't like hearing my honesty questioned or this indoor described as outdoor. I support the commenter's right to complain and regret his or her dissatisfaction and respectfully disagree about my honesty and the claimed "outdoor" origin for Headlight's EMP.

I could have just 1/5 you, and put FE ::)

I'm sorry, but I was being honest, and so won't any "dealer" friends. Let me tell you I learned they know every trick in the book. They want good head stash, not outdoor.
You better more than support my right to complain, you better listen as well. I meant no personal attack on you. If you are guilty then thats how you should reply.
Otherwise sit your ass down and read.

Did I miss it's smells like hay? Did I read it was indoor? Do you have any idea how much weed I have smoked?  :-[

Sorry, but I appreciate you taking the first shot.I didn't want to bully you. Your not the first vendor I've knocked. Some improved, some didn't. Guess which ones are still here?  I'm sure many will very happy. It's worth the price, but no more. No way it's "medicine". Maybe in your mind. Looks great though ??? Great fucking buzz.

First off the good.
I smoked it, I got nicely ripped. I'm impressed with the strain, and thats hard to do around here. Ask around.
I can't find "EMP" any where listed, but it's sure to be a favorite of mine, which is very hard to do.
The cure had to be good, because the smoke was smooth.

The buds were showcase. i mean for the non-dealer type wanting head stash, they won't believe it.

That being said, I have just as good outdoor. Not that well trimmed, however. Once I requested who the grower was, and will take anything that Indian dude grows.
When it comes to growing weed I don't discriminate against people, just the weed they grow. Get it? BTW women grow the best weed, period. I ain't talking about just one ;)
There is always CN to use as the top notch standard. I'd say for looks you are on pare. Bud density, no way. CN's are always denser. More light;)


Now, lets get to the shit.
I ground it, it still smells of hay with weed mixed in.
I know what outdoor smells like. I just had a Blue Dream outdoor, that smelled like, well fucking Blue Dream. Not sure what my Indian friend does to do it, but damn 8)

So your telling me a dispensary wouldn't knock you for that smell? Lets my see "EMP hay", "your horse needs medicine too"



All I ask is be honest, or explain the god damn hay smell. It's stinking up my dorm. People are asking whats that smell? not weed ;D

Just wanted to chime in and say my experience with the EMP regarding smell.

It certainly doesn't smell very strong at all, but I definitely don't get a "hay" scent from it.  It definitely smells mild, but it's by no means a bad smell.

Also, when you're talking about medicinal cannabis... why does smell even matter?

I feel like looks/taste/smell are all good, but at the end of the day all I really care that much about is the effects.

I mean hell, sour diesel is extremely popular, despite many people thinking it smells or tastes terrible (forgive me, I've never tried it so I can't say first hand), because it knocks you on your ass.

Also, NW Nugz, I really hope you guys plan to keep getting EMP in stock as often as you can, because this stuff is amazing, every person I know who's tried it has concurred, and I really hope I won't have to find another strain any time soon :)

+1 for your review. I only hope it was an honest one. Stand your ground. I value peoples opinions. In no way do I mean to disrespect this vendor. He is the one over hyping his weed, not me. This is not the first thread where others have had your opinion. I use to as well. I was just happy to get it ;) The magic is over. This is business, my money, for your weed.

Now I will stand my ground.


Bullshit.....

It fucking smells of hay, either thats the strain smell, or bullshit. Green fucking grassy hay.

Everything else is spot on. Thats my honest review, I've earned the right to say it.
It's not the first time, or the first vendors, but IRL, has taught me the dealers know every thing about cannabis. If you think you are getting screwed, you are.
IRL Guys sales mids, over hyping. Now he wants head stash. Good buzz, nice look. WTF is the smell? Take it back. Understand? They know.

So back to the smell, it's part of the rating, and I'm not going to listen to the but it has a good buzz. So doesn't outdoor if they do it right, for a lot less.
I pay for bud density, and smell, as WELL as all those others things. Color, size, crystals, etc.
So dispensaries don't do that?

Come on!

I didn't hit the vendor's rating, or ask for anything. It's just my honest review of some weed I smoked personally.
If I could I'd pay my taxes, walk to the store, and buy it. Know what I mean? We're getting Cali's rejects. No way thats selling in stores, cause one smell, I wouldn't buy it. There's too many other choices. Wow, thanks to SR, I can say that.

@uniwiz
I appreciate you not knocking my feedback score and I do want everyone to be honest in their reviews here. I think you believe what you are saying and support your right to say it at least 150% :-). I don't blame you for not being happy with the EMP scent. It does not impress me either. Thanks @fl4r3 for standing up for us on the EMP scent issue. Some people like it a lot and I wonder if there is a genetic thing where I can't smell the good of it and some people can. There are genetic smell things like that. I don't think that is very likely in this case though.
I am glad the High worked for ya :-) I would be really sad if that did not work for you either.
As for indoor vs outdoor, I know for a fact this was grown 100% of the time indoors. Apparently weed that seems like outdoor quality to you, can come from indoors. I'm not disagreeing with your opinion on quality, just habitat :-)

Thanks for the nice comments. Headlight is experimenting with some new things and so there may be less "EMP" around at times. I will encourage people to keep providing it to us as I do think it will develop a following here [though, Uniwiz may have to soak it in something good n smelly like vanilla or something ;-) ]. Some growers have trouble doing it well but I will keep trying to get the best stuff for SR.
A little fresh Headlight EMP is coming in very soon. And, the Bob Bitchin  stuff I have listed is pretty darn close to as good as Headlight's.

The buzz is great. It's quickly becoming head stash. The look is picture perfect. The smell may be due to genetics. I don't know the strain, and can't find any info.
I grind it, and I pick up a light weed smell. I need to check it out more 8)

All I'm saying is smell is important. I'm not going to listen to the dudes blowing you telling you but the buzz was great. For all I know it's a shill account, it's been done before. If one of my SR buddies tells me I'm full of shit, then I'm full of shit. Otherwise, hear me roar.
Vendors, and drug dealers have jaded me. I discovered all the times I thought I was getting screwed, I was. Sell them better shit then they ever gave you, and you hear what is reality.
Vendors keep hyping they have A+, AAA+, when it's barely B+, so I'm watching out.
As far as value, the weed is worth it. A+? I think not. Medical? I doubt it. Maybe I should try another strain?
Now if I rated on just buzz, at least an A.

BTW I never doctor my weed, except with hash, and oil.;)

They are good but I am supposed to get some stuff from Bacon Boy any day now and I think You might appreciate those offerings more. To try to make you feel better about this whole deal, I can also do a sampler if you want to order 4 different OZ's now or later, I'll make sure you get the QP price as a one time deal.  It kinda sounds like I'm trying to pressure you to buy more.

Oh, don't waste a lot of time trying to find info about EMP on the web. Headlight made up the name a few years ago and the cuttings have not been shared much, if at all. It is, supposedly, a Matanuska Thund. Seedling selection (described in the OP and discussed a little in a few posts afterwords, I think). We have not really heard from people who claim to have a feel for what parenting they think it came from. I would like to hear opinions along those lines.

I know the tendency is to defend yourself. Most of my SR friends hate to put negative comments in public because it turns into a flame war.
I appreciate you taking the far view.
So I did a test the morning. I smelled the bag, the weed was dryer so less hay smell. I ground it, trying not to pay attention to the hay smell, and picked up on the strain.
Same as I do for outdoor. You are correct, not much of a smell at all.
I'm beginning to think it's the cure. I pick up a slight taste on exhale.
I don't think you are pressuring me. Others would jump at the chance.
I don't mean to flame you, but I am holding your ass to the fire.

Any noob is going to love the look of the bud. As my niece said " it looks just like the pictures". The big bud sort makes it even better.
I also think it's great we start labelling growers as well as strains.

Wow dude, this weed is top notch! SUPER FROSTY.. expecially the alien OG.  The EMP Headlight is just as dank with as many crystals

The alien OG looks just so perfect with crystals every fucking where. I ran 6.7g of it and got 1.5g (over 20% yield) of some dank wax!! The smell of the bud isn't super strong, but has a earthy with a fruity sweet undertone. It has more of a fruity taste on the exhale and its pretty smooth.

The finger hash is pretty good too, makes bowls last forever, and I love the hashey taste! 

I always thought the smell thing was from being vacuum sealed. The smell on the buds were kinda suttle, but that smell usually takes a day or two to come back.

EMP strain doesn't have much of a smell,as you stated. I think the sealed bag made matters worst. I'll knew in a few weeks if re-curing works.

I can't believe I'm saying this. I think I have enough BD. Being a fan, it would be hard to measure up to my favourite grower, the one eyed girl with big tits. God I love that women.
Anyhow whats that Pineapple about? Will this impress me? Right now the BTC market is killing me, lol.

The EMP is curing nicely. You are correct it has no smell. I spent hours googling, and reading about hay smelling weed. Basically it either bad cure, no cure,  or picked too early. The best solution is to jar for 2 weeks, burping daily. May seem like an experiment but it's working. :)
Unlike the GSC which stank the whole house, EMP does not. The buzz however I rate up with Blue Dream, thats saying a lot. No sure if the color will change after the cure but they looked nice going in.

The price looks nice, but will it impress? :P

To be honest I have not seen these 2 new things yet. I should know more tomorrow. Bacon Boy is not really the exaggerating type and he says it is some of the best he has grown. He also said some who try his Pineapple, don't want anything else from then on. I think it may sell out before I can check to be sure it will impress Uniwiz. If anyone orders before I see it and wants me to cancel their order after I see it and report more details, I will. I do think this will be impressive stuff :-)

And yes, The Bitcoin crash killed us as well. Just shipped the last of the orders we probably should have canceled. We seem to be losing thousands on the crash and hope for a rise to lessen the pain.

Sounds Yummy.

Are you hedging your products? I know I made some buys, and the ones that weren't hedged were cancelled, no problem with me.
I was very lucky to be home at the time of the crash, and had sold my initial investment at $250 but bought at $140, went to $170, sold, and bought again at $140.
So if we get to $140, I did ok. I also spent my initial investment on weed ;) So I did ok, went from 36 BTC to 40 BTC spent $3k, but those 40 BTC are not worth as much.
If you boghut at $200-250 you are really hurting.

So back to cannabis does Pineapple smell fruity? Also anybody gets some please review it, I like reviews ;)

OK, Finally got it :-) Yes, the P. smells fruity. Very pineappley :-) The P. is a little leafyer than I prefer as they were working on it until i made them give it up ;-). The Blue Dream is awesome looking. I'm not sure which is better. I'd be happy to have the Blue Dream compared to anyone else's. I'll get it broken up tonight and get a better feel for which one is most awesome :-).

No, not hedged. Usually happy about that, but painful for a while there. I'm glad Uniwiz was able to buy and sell a lot of the potential losses away :-) I need to get more sophisticated about Btc trading before the next crash.

Well they are both great and I couldn't pick a favorite to enter in the SR 420 competition here:
http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=108906.0

Just some basic info on the strains from Leafy.com:
Pineapple Hybrid Strain
Pineapple marijuana strain is a phenotype F2 of the ERSB indica pineapple that was inbred and feminized. The Buds smell like the actual fruit of pineapple and even tend to resemble the fruit when growing. Flowering time is 7-8 weeks.

and
Blue Dream Hybrid Strain
Blue Dream is a cross of Blueberry and Haze and was bred to provide the body high of an indica and the cerebral sativa effects.  Blue Dream is highly effective for pain management without the sedative effects of a pure indica.  Effects are long lasting and she has a pleasant fruity taste.

Don't have a picture up yet. Have not broken the HP I got up yet. It is pretty crystally and very purple. Not sure if I will do anything other than Ozs with it. I guess I ought to add it as an option in the 2 x 1/2Z sampler item so more people can try it. OK, talked myself into that, lol :-)

Great vendor with great communication. I ordered an ounce of blue dream and asked if he could throw in a sample of pineapple and FE'd in return. Very happy with the outcome product was packaged so well. Mylar bags were used. Product was not compressed and still had some decent sized nugs, mostly popcorn. Both the blue dream and pineapple look amazing. The blue dream was covered in trichs and had the most wonderful smell. After breaking up a nug, my hands were completely sticky haha.
NW Nugz, best of luck to you as a vendor I will be back for more in the future. I hope everyone a happy 4/20 tomorrow and a happy bicycle day today.

Had a truly wonderful experience buying from this vendor. The package was well shipped, and mylar packaging was used.The product was fresh, so curing for a few weeks wont hurt, and  I smoke slow so it wont matter. I ordered  1/2 of Blue dream and 1/2 of OG 18. Why I went with this vendor was I heard they had very stealth shipping (very true and impressive), and at $250 an OZ. it is a great value to a stoner like me. The buds were grown by the same grower.  The high for both is wonderful, both strains have wonderful bag appeal, smell is great but similar from both, the smell took a few days to come out. The smoke is smooth and mellow. The blue dream has a longer buzz for me. Two or three bowl hits gives me a 1 hr buzz. The OG stone comes on faster but does not last as long. Both seem to have strong sativa characteristics. I did find 2 seeds in the both strains. All in all this is a stellar vendor.
I will be back, and I will have to try some finger hash next time. Thanks dudes Happy 420!!!

New Herb and new Grower :-)

Sour Diesel    by Mr Ed
Good sized, nicely crystal-coated buds that smell more pleasant and fruity to me than I expected based on the varieties reputation.

From Leafly.com:
Sour Diesel is best known for (and gets its name from) the extremely pungent smell that it contains. It is a fast acting, dreamy high that is extremely cerebral, but doesn't leave you stuck to the couch. Sometimes known as Sour D.

Also a rumor of Blue Dream and/or EMP coming soon from another grower new to SR.

From over in the 420 Competition Thread :-)
(http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=108906.0)

Vendor:  NW Nugz
Strain: Blue Dream

Category: Hybrid (Sativa)

Picture Link: http://i.imgur.com/bdMMCG5.jpg

Color/Appearance [Bag Appeal] (9.5/10)
The color scheme on this was like triple tones from shades of lime to greyish white from trich's coating to the pistil shades of creamy off auburn brown to bright orange, and the calyxes gland were ripe and swollen of sheen. If looking closely you can see hints of what is to be like a dark shade of emerald green that gives a navy blue purplish dark green hue of a color


 
Trich Coverage:(9.5/10)
The entire surface from side stems to leaves to down right the pistils being coated with T.H.C. heads, and to the naked eye you can see on damage from packaged containers and seals that shows a bunch of crystal sticking to the barriers between in and out crevices in the gear itself

 
Trim Job:(9.75/10)
Trim job was tight and neat and left no unwanted and un-documented sticks that accumulate unwanted weight. Nothing but pure nug. I noticed this can't be perfect but can be as close as possible, maybe in the near future, we can have a trim be as clean cut as possible but will always and can be subjective to another person. i might of saw a loose fan leaf or water leaf here and there, but other than that a tight clean job all around ensuring nothing but goodness. To get a perfect score you would have to show us your using gloves and doing all the trimming by hand, but then again, that's.' just not feasible due to amount of work that would entail

Cure:(9/10)
The cure was nice, had me smelling the bud like exactly what i know it for, and reminded exactly of how a Blue Dream should smell like, something tropical yet sharp with like a hazey type of sativa smell , with a hint of a fruity side. It burned nice and even and turned off as soon as the bowl was lit. Extremely dank ! maybe some people prefer a longer cure, but this locked in the taste and feel i look for in bud. To take it to the next level, it could be buried in the ground in like buckets with jars and left in a cool dark place un-touched for like a month to get that super soft yet pliable burn that has a same like taste to it's smell when burnt.

Flush:(9.5/10)
The flush was present and left not fat traces in my ashes and all broke and floated off smoothly with the wind. Sometime i smoke a bowl and whats left is like a chunky black ash that leaves traces of whatever it was grown in, so sometimes i think i haven't' even fully cashed a bowl all out, and try smoking ash, but what it really is , is just un properly flushed product. This had a nice light grey all the way around with lil' specs of tiny dark. really nifty to see the T.H.C. actually visible when a flush is done proper, u can see the actual leaves in its last standing structure before set ablaze.

Smell:(9/10)
Has a nice pungent aroma, and can tell that the growing method being used is being perfected. The glands on the buds are swollen and leaves you with the sweet yet kind of tarty spicey smell you can pull from Blue Dreams. Really nice type of smell kind of like a fruity sugar tart mixed with a floral assortment of spices to give it that potent whiff when nose'n this pretty specimen of a Blue Dream.


Buzz:(9/10)
Had me baked for about 2 solid and half hours ! i only get baked like that of hash or concentrates but this really did it for a flower in its own right. I have to give it to the whole experience from the smell to the taste to the way it was grown that gives me a truly good experience from start to finish, from touching it to just looking at it. Only few strains actually give a pleasure to me, Including JackHerrer, OG Kush, any fancy cross of OG's and Blueberry strains, that and Sour's and Chem' D'z. This just adds another notch acquired in my book of blazing

Got a picture up on Mr. Ed's Sour Diesel listings.

Learning to take better pictures. Was using an incandescent light to spotlight the buds and it was making them all look alike. Went to a darker place and relied on the flash and it is showing natural colors better :-)

Cant get into SR to message people atm, so just saying here that I shipped everything I had an address for today. I was missing one address I had asked for. if you ordered and I have not messaged you yet, I do not know about the order yet. I'm gonna sleep for a long time and then be on it again :-)
Best wished to DPR and the fix-it team, NWN

Hoping to grab an oz when my next paycheck gets in. Can't decide between the SD or the EMP...if I'm lucky, maybe one of them will be all gone by the time I'm able to order and the decision will be made for me  ;D

This outage is bugging me though, even though I cannot get them yet I still enjoyed gazing at them and imagining smoking them...

If you are out of everything by the time I am able to order, I might have to drown myself in what little of UnWizard's absinthe I have left.

Anyone seeing this that has tried the Sour Diesel yet? Thoughts? Silence might be the sign of a satisfied (very stoned) customer not making it here?

Maple, message me in SR if your paycheck comes and we have run out. I can probably come up with something to save you from that absinthe end.

Ya, SR and Tormail outages are being very troublesome. At least the Btc is looking good atm.

I just put up a few QP's and OZs of Pineapple and Blue Dream (by Bacon Boy) for shipping on Monday. He is supposed to deliver it Sat morning. I'm sure I will have it in time to pack and ship it by Monday. It should be some of the best stuff I have offered here :-)

I can't believe I'm saying this. I think I have enough BD. Being a fan, it would be hard to measure up to my favourite grower, the one eyed girl with big tits. God I love that women.
Anyhow whats that Pineapple about? Will this impress me? Right now the BTC market is killing me, lol.

The EMP is curing nicely. You are correct it has no smell. I spent hours googling, and reading about hay smelling weed. Basically it either bad cure, no cure,  or picked too early. The best solution is to jar for 2 weeks, burping daily. May seem like an experiment but it's working. :)
Unlike the GSC which stank the whole house, EMP does not. The buzz however I rate up with Blue Dream, thats saying a lot. No sure if the color will change after the cure but they looked nice going in.

The price looks nice, but will it impress? :P

Just opened a jar of EMP. Now it smells like weed. Buds are still impressive.
3 weeks cure did the trick. I am happy. I'll keep the  rest in their jars.

So i made an order with NWN for a qp and asked if he would be willing to give me 4 different kinds, he graciously obliged and let me tell you this guy is awesome cause 5 days later i have it.

i just sparked up a bowl of the Sour D and im loving it, its got good bag appeal with fluffy well trimmed nugs and alot of crystals.  definitely has that sour d smell

i actually ordered another qp about 5 days before i placed my order with NWN from another SR vendor and that has yet to arrive

stealth was awesome

i seriously can't say enough about how good this vendor was, i will definitely be doing business again

Thanks for the update uniwiz! It is interesting to know how that experiment is going. I'm glad it is improving and your getting happier about it. I still do hope to get you something you consider clearly "medical". I do wish you had gotten some  of the Pineapple or Blue Dream I had recently. I think it would have impressed you a little. More great stuff coming soon though, I'm sure. I'm having trouble getting dollars for my Btc atm and it is slowing new supplies. Dang that Tormail trouble when the price is high.

Thanks powerade510 for responding to the call for opinions about the SourD :-)
Now, don't everyone start asking me to break up bags into smaller bags of assorted flavors unless it is important. Imagine Powerade's grandmother was sick and was not sure what medicine she could tolerate best after the chemo treatments. And, don't everyone start telling me about sick grandmothers, lol :-)

Jeez you two could spread the love and +1 each other. Anyhow couldn't let poweraid have a 0, well he is reviewing.

NW Nugs,
I'm happy you handled that criticism well. Makes a difference to me;)
Some of the vendors are beginning to piss me off with their reactions, then sending in their fake accounts to attack the poster.
I read some interesting reviews in the vendor's thread. Then I watch the little birdies fly in to attack. Not all are fake, but pretty goddamn selfish.
A vendor attacking other vendors really gets me mad.
Anyhow looking forward to making a purchase again.

Vendor: NW Nugz

Vendor Profile: http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/silkroad/user/6dec1f7750

Strain: Blue Dream

Picture (2 images):  http://imgur.com/w276q7x,DXfO8Bm#0

Color/Appearance/Bag Appeal (9.5/10)
I reviewed this one first because god damn it was undoubtedly one of my favorites. Trademark lime/light green with soft orange hairs sprinkled throughout. Just a real pleasure to look at, the pics don't even do it justice because I couldn't make it focus properly but even still it looks gorgeous.

Trichome Coverage (9/10)
Absolutely covered. Sparkles like a diamond when you look at it closely. If you break open a nug you'll literally see trichs fly off.

Trim Job (9.5/10)
Nothing to complain about whatsoever. No excess leaves, no big stems, just all around quality product. Almost a crime to smoke.

Flush (9/10)
No signs of poor flush. Ash burnt white but the smoke did burn a little darker than usual. Could just be the big hit I took.

Cure (9.5/10)
Would've given it a 10 but I like to think there's always room for improvement. The bud was basically perfectly cured, didn't crumble or crack but ground up into nice fluffy piece which looked just as good ground as it did whole.

Smell (8/10)
The lower score here could be simply due to the size of the sample which simply doesn't give off much scent. But even still it had a nice citrusy scent to it. 

Taste (8.5/10)
Took a big bong rip of this. It tasted nice but not as sweet and flavorful as other buds I've had. Overall the taste isn't a huge factor for me so this still ranks as some of the best bud I have ever had.

Buzz (9/10)
Euphoric. I felt truly elated and almost forgot about my problems which was no easy feat at that time. Some of the best bud I've had the pleasure of smoking. Felt fully aware yet still "high", getting enjoyment from stupid things and briefly floating away into my own world where everything is happy :p


Overall (9/10)
Truly thankful I got the opportunity to sample this bud and I 100% plan to be back. One of the best things that could've come out of this contest was my exposure to some truly excellent vendors and NW Nugz is most certainly one of them.

Vendor: NW Nugz

Vendor Profile: http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/silkroad/user/6dec1f7750

Strain: Pineapple

Picture: http://i.imgur.com/07kMJK4.jpg

Color/Appearance/Bag Appeal (8/10)
This bud leave somewhat of a royal or majestic first impression. Its a big, fat bud with 3-4 different shades of green and long orange/brown hairs basically interwoven through the entirety of it. Dense, clustered trichomes in random spots as well.


Trichome Coverage (8.5/10)
Not as visibly covered as his Blue Dream but it has its own appeal. The trichs are much denser and compacted on the inside which makes it look deceiving from the outside.

Trim Job (9.5/10)
One again I can't complain here but I have some weird thing with giving out 10s. There's always room for improvement so figure out some way to improve on this NW Nugz  ;)

Flush (9/10)
These guys know how to grow their bud. The smoke was desirably pure white, no lung/throat discomfort even though I did a few hits in a row. The ash was nice and white and fell right out of the bowl without any effort.

Cure (9/10)
Another great job. When squeezed it didn't crumble but instead sprung back but still broke apart without effort. When ground up it burned evenly.

Smell (9/10)
Much more potent smell than the blue dream. Nice fruity smell to it which I can't quite describe but I feel like pineapple is an appropriate name for this strain.

Taste (9/10)
Nice sweet taste. The type of bud you want to put into a J and blow O's with. Really enjoyable.

Buzz (8/10)
Not too intense but pretty mellow. Relaxing yet motivating. I am the type who tries to get work done like projects/studying while high and this bud put me in a good mind set to do that.


Overall (8.5/10)
It was hard to say which is better but I'd say that the blue dream just barely beats out his pineapple. I am glad I got to try them both and I'd be happy smoking either because both of these strains have really been given the love and attention they need. I'm a happy camper and thanks again NW Nugz for giving me the opportunity to try you out. Sorry for the long wait in the reviews but you can be sure I will be looking your way when I want to do business in the future! Maybe I'll also have to check out your EMP!

Thanks much HeatFan. More Awesome reviews from the 420 Competition :-)

So, SR and the forums appear to be under attack from the evildoers again. If I messaged you about an order, I have it and it should ship Monday regardless of the sites' issues. I'll keep trying to look for more orders of course. I finally got through to my cash flow person and cash will make getting new stuff go much more smoothly soon :-)

EDIT:  All orders (as of Sunday) shipped today (Monday) :-)

Here's my reviews of NWN's entries in the 4/20 contest. You can check out the main thread here ----> http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=108906.225

Both of his entries were top notch and fared well in the competition. We should have the results posted in the next couple of days. We didn't factor communication, shipping time and stealth/packaging into the scores, but NWN was on top of all of this and everything couldn't have been better. I especially liked his clever stealth methods. :D

Thanks again for letting me sample/review your gorgeous flowers NWN.

Vendor: NW Nugz ----> http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/silkroad/user/6dec1f7750

Strain: Blue Dream ----> http://i.imgur.com/bdMMCG5.jpg

Category: Sativa

Color/Appearance (Bag Appeal) - (9.5/10) - Really beautiful nugs. Different shades of green, ranging from light lime to kind of a dark forest green. Also some bits of frosted purple calyxes mixed in and bright orange tentacles crawling all over.

Trich Coverage - (9.5/10) - This bud is really frosted over with a thick layer of shiny trichs. Every bit of it is dripping with glistening goodness, all the way down to the stem. There's trichs on top of the trichs. Grinding this bud up left behind an insane amount of kief.

Trim Job - (9.25/10) - Only the smallest bit of leaf is present. Really it's just a couple of jagged stragglers that don't take away from the beauty of the bud in any way. This is trimmed about as tight as you could hope for with bud this beautiful and dense. Top notch work all the way around with this one.

Flush - (9/10) - This bud was flushed well and had a super smooth, non-expansive smoke. Not the least bit harsh, and nice creamy smoke, if the slightest bit thick. Left behind a soft white ash with bits of a darker off-white/grey mixed in.

Cure - (9/10) - Super dense, tight, almost rock hard nuggets. The kind that leave a "ping" when you drop them into the jar. The bud had a nice fluffy texture when ground up, despite its incredible density. The cure locked in the smell and taste nicely, as a pungent aroma burst out upon breaking into one of the buds. This was stronger than the initial smell and slightly different.

Smell - (9/10) - Really pleasant aroma which features an initial hit of sweet fruitiness, and hazy undertones with earthy and spicy bits mixed in. Maybe a slight hint of floral notes as well, although those could easily be confused with the fruitiness.

Taste - (9.25/10) - Initially bright and fruity, with an undertone of earthiness and slight fuel. The exhale is nice and hazy and features a very pleasant spiciness in addition to the strong haze and citrus notes. The citrus lingers for a while afterward and is still present when you go to take your next hit, adding a bit of a kick to the inhale.

Buzz - (9/10) - Really uplifting, soaring type of high which features a bright mental clarity and an increased capacity of thought. You will have some deep thoughts and moments of insight when smoking this BD, and likely a higher than usual socialness and state of well being. A slight touch of indica keeps you grounded just the right amount. Great for smoking pretty much any time of the day.

Vendor: NW Nugz ----> http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/silkroad/user/6dec1f7750

Strain: Pineapple ----> http://i.imgur.com/jca2VQD.jpg

Category: Hybrid

Color/Appearance (Bag Appeal) - (9.5/10) - Another beautiful bud provided by NW Nugz. Gorgeous bright green, with bits of darker green leaf and flaming orange pistils that are curled and mixed in throughout. Similar to the BD, but almost seems a little "brighter" in appearance, despite there not being as much of a trich coverage.

Trich Coverage - (8.75/10) - A nice healthy amount of trichs cover this bud, although not as thick of a layer as on NWN's Blue Dream. Still, there is plenty of shiny goodness and plenty of kief to be had after grinding this bud up. Also a bit stickier than the BD but still ground up well.

Trim Job - (8.75/10) - Trimmed down well, with only a bit of dark green leaf remaining. The leaf gives the bud a bit of a "sharp" appearance but in reality it is pretty much bud and more bud.

Flush - (9/10) - Again, this bud was flushed properly and had only a slight bit of harshness on the initial inhale, which smoothed out almost immediately. The smoke was not quite a smooth as the BD, but still had a virtually non-existent expansion and a nice texture. A soft, off-white ash with bits darker grey was left behind.

Cure - (9/10) - Much fluffier and a bit drier than the BD, but still a proper cure and nice crumbly texture to this Pineapple. Not crumbly in a bad way, of course, but more of a soft, smooth crumbling of the bud when ground up. Just a nice squeezable texture. The fluffiness was retained nicely after breaking it down and the consistency led to a nice even burn.

Smell - (9.25/10) - Super bright, pungent tropical aroma which is very strong but not not overwhelming or unpleasant in any way. Definitely a nice strong hit of fruitiness at first, mainly a lemony-citrus scent which also has a nice bit of gas to it.

Taste - (9.25/10) - Very similar to the smell, with the fruity tropical notes being the most noticeable, especially on the inhale. The exhale provides a bit more of the citrus along with a nice strong muskiness which gives it a nice balance. Not much of a lingering aftertaste, although you really don't need it because the taste itself gives you all you need.

Buzz - (9/10) - Initially a pretty strong cerebral high, which later spreads throughout the body and smooths out into a nice hybrid buzz. The heady high remains in the background, although with less intensity, and the body high is functionally warm and tranquil without being overpowering or inducing couch lock. Another nice strain that could likely smoked any time of the day.

So, I have not been able to get into SR or Tormail much recently. Our Tormail is nwnugz@tormail.org
Not really planning to do Biz there unless SR does not come back in a few days. Have not even checked that email yet. Anyone know another good anonymous email option they like? In the meantime, I'm resting up and looking for new supplies :-)

I wanted to write this review a couple days ago when I got my package, but the forums were slow and I was still working my way to 50 posts.

I don't think I can write quite the connoisseur level of review that other people here are writing; before, I'm just grateful to be able to get quality bud.

I broke the No-FE rule as a first-time buyer, but I was rewarded for my trust. I was definitely impressed with the packaging and speed of shipping - 2 days, shipped promptly when ordered.

I got 1/2 of the sour diesel and 1/2 of the EMP. I haven't broken into the EMP yet, but I'm really enjoying the sour diesel. Definitely higher quality than what I'm used to. Nice pretty trim job and a pleasant smell. Great cerebral high.

Can't wait for my next order, thanks NW Nugz.

Thanks amnesia0411 Short opinion reviews are great. No need for big flowery pro reviews, usually. I am interested in opinions about the smell of the EMP. Someone said the fresh stuff I am shipping smelled like manure (but they were happy and would buy again). I don't think it smells that bad.

I shipped all the orders up to Thursday morning. Have not gotten into SR since about then. I have some new Sour Diesel by a new grower. Cant get it up on my listings atm.
Will keep trying :-)

After giving it a few really good whiffs, I would say it definitely does NOT smell bad. I might describe it as a freshly-cut wet grass smell. I think it smells good.

After reading this thread and then seeing the price he had his sour diesel listed for I had to jump on it.  Think I took his last 2 oz's, will update when I receive.

Thanks Guys :-)

There is one more Z (listed at the moment) of SourD by OG Dude I was holding it back until the Mr. Ed OZs sold out.

I finally figured out how to post pictures (need to be shrunken to under 1Mb in size) and got pic's of Leaf, shake and new Amsterdam Haze up :-) Time to sleep and then Pack and ship soon - I'll be away from SR quite a bit for next 16hrs or so.

Edit:  SourD OZs all gone now and I still must get to bed :-)

So my paycheck is in, I have bought my BTC, and NW Nugz still has of that EMP up. Soon as that BTC hits my account I'm gonna grab it!

Excited ;D

Here's to hoping it doesn't take all night to arrive...

Im wishing you luck, my last coin transfer took over 26 hours and by the time it hit the product was sold it.  However, from tragedy sprang hope when I came across NW"s sour diesel listing.  All worked out in the end I suppose, just giving you fair warning that coin transfers are taking FOREVER, there is a giant thread about it already going

So, somehow I ended up about a dollar short, so I just decided to grab another item I had been looking at as well and threw enough money in there to make up for it. Thought I would not make it for a bit, as my usual Moneygram place was having issues with the system but I absolutely refuse to let a technical glitch get between me and weed.

Ordered it, can't wait for it to get here.

Cue compulsive checking of mailbox.

My review for 2 oz's of Sour Diesel (Grown by Mr. Ed)

Communication   5/5- Answered my few questions promptly.   Very nice and accommodating.

Shipping 6/5 - Order was shipped on thursday and received on Saturday.  Stealth was the best I have seen yet on the road!  Ingenious, no scent, no red flags, no compressed buds.  Touche

Product 5/5 -  Buds are beautiful.  Bright green and absolutely covered in crystals, orange hairs scattered throughout , hardly any stem.  Sparkles in the sunlight.   Very fluffy, an 8th looks like a quarter.  Surprisingly with the fluffiness it doesn't burn super fast like you think it would.  Bag appeal is off the charts.  Great heady high, productive, makes me chatty.

Value 6/5 -  Weighed exactly on point, 56 grams.  Some might complain about this but to be honest this is probably the best "bang for your buck" I have gotten off the road.  The quality of the product for the price charged is incredible.  Almost didn't want to add that last part, don't want him to raise his price lol.  However, he doesnt seem like that type of guy. 

Overall 6/5-  Honestly you can't go wrong ordering from NW Nuggs, I HIGHLY recommend!  Again, the value was tremendous.  This guy rocks!

Thanks NW- I will absolutely be ordering again, especially If I see a grow by Mr. ED

Here's my review of the Amsterdam Haze that NW Nugz listed recently:

Vendor Communication - 5/5 Absolutely stellar, he always gets back to me really quick, and is very helpful and understanding.  Best vendor I've dealt with.
Vendor Shipping Speed - 5/5 Item was packed and shipped the same day as my order.  It took a few days longer than expected because of USPS being slow, but certainly can't put that on NW Nugz.
Vendor Shipping Stealth - 5/5 Absolutely the best.  Double vacuum sealed layers, the outermost one being non-transparent.  Some very clever other tricks to make the package appear more legitimate, both from the outside of the package and in the case that the packaging gets damaged or opened, on the inside as well.  Obviously I won't detail what this is because I wouldn't want to threaten NW Nugz' operational security or anything.

I ordered the two 1/2 oz sampler, 1/2 Headlight EMP, 1/2 Amsterdam Haze.  I won't review the EMP since it's the exact same EMP I already wrote a review on.  Suffice to say it's the best cannabis I've ever experienced.

Amsterdam Haze:

Looks - 5/5.  Bag appeal is off the charts.  It's covered in trichomes to the point where it sparkles in the light.  Absolutely frosty.  Mostly light green buds, with a bit of dark green from the tiny bit of leftover leaf.  It's got tons of bright orange/red hairs, it's so red haired it must be Irish!  Smallish nugs, but that's to be expected with a sativa.  Here are some reasonably-macro shots I took with my phone:

http://xqz3u5drneuzhaeo.onion/users/qicpic/files/77n.jpg
http://xqz3u5drneuzhaeo.onion/users/qicpic/files/77l.jpg

http://xqz3u5drneuzhaeo.onion/users/qicpic/files/77v.jpg
http://xqz3u5drneuzhaeo.onion/users/qicpic/files/77w.jpg

Smell - 3/5.  Light, piny, just a tiny bit sweet.  Much like the EMP.  Probably needs a little more time for the smell to fully come out.  A minty note comes in once you grind it up a bit, though it's still a mild smell.

Trim/Texture - 4/5.  Light and fluffy buds that aren't hard and dried without being super fresh.  Very little stem, and only a small amount of leaf leftover.  Not the tighest trim I've seen, but perfectly acceptable.

Taste - 3/5.  Pine.  100% Pine.  I swear to god I thought I was vaping a christmas tree.  Surprising given the pine smell wasn't nearly that strong in bud form.  This is by no means a bad thing, but it certainly doesn't have a super delicious sweet taste or anything.

Effects - 5/5.  Very clear heady buzz.  Definitely sativa dominant.  Very pleasant and euphoric and uplifting.  Instead of the couch lock people normally experience, I almost feel pulled upwards, it's weird, but awesome.  In case it isn't already clear, I'm writing this <10m after vaping this stuff for the first time.

Overall - 20/25.  It lost some points on smell and taste, but honestly I weight those much less heavily then looks and effects.  If you value those two more highly, then that might be more important.  All in all this stuff is easily equivalent to the Headlight EMP, which is saying a lot.  Time will tell if it's slightly better or slightly worse, but either way I am overjoyed to experience another fantastic strain from NW Nugz.

Thanks for the reviews guys :-)

I am running out of bud at this time while I figure out how to safely/anon. get cash so I can pay growers. Hope to have this all figured out very soon as I am sure I can get resupplied quickly.

I can't blame the Gov't for messing with my cash flow to try and get their cut out of all this. I can't pay the Gov's cut on all of this, though, as it's not all my money. I think we would all be willing to pay the tax if the Gov let us do this Biz. Since they don't, we gotta find a way to keep it all :-) I expect to have a way soon.

We need increased support for vendors like NW Nugz. This guy goes above and beyond every time. Every. Single. Time. His forum presence alone shows what it takes to be a true contender on the Road. We all wish you the best of luck, and hope to see you stocked up and ready as soon as possible. But as always, stay safe!

So a couple friends and I have been enjoying the EMP, of course I could not tell them where I got it from but they were very, very eager to find out.

It definitely is not as pungent as some of the other strains I have had, but I can only see this as a plus as it makes it a little bit harder for it to be detected by people, and every little bit is a bonus!

It looks so beautiful, and is a smooth smoke. Wonderful high as well. Can't wait for more to be listed, a few of my friends have offered to buy quite a bit of it off of me.

The stealth was incredible too.

NWN, I shall be back!

OK, I think I got this Btc thing figured out. Have not actually gotten cash yet, but have high hopes and plan to start putting listings up soon :-)
   Thank's for the patience everyone.
Coming very soon:
EMP           by Headlight (nice looking small batch) (Ozs and sampler)

A few QP's and OZs and sampler of 2 varieties from a new grower :-):

Alien OG    by Kushster (does not really look like A OG to me, but smells kinda musky like it and looks good)
Cheese       by Kushster (looks and smells good)

I think Mr Ed and others may have stuff as soon as I get the cash out.

I have been monitoring your progress, and have decided to give you a try. I have high standards, and high hopes which I hope are met. I normally don't go with other vendors, but my usual connects are dry. If things go well I will be a regular, and keep coming back. With the holiday coming up I guess this will probably go in the mail on Tuesday which is cool with me.

I have some new stuff I'm not listing until tomorrow because I have so many orders now, I don't want to encourage more ordering. Only one QP and the rest OZs and Samplers. I think I kinda spooked my suppliers when I was unable to get $ for Btc there for a week or so. I hope to be able to offer more QPs when I show I can get $ in a timely fashion :-)

Just realized my OZs of Cherry Cheesecake were set to stealth mode and no one could see them but me! Lol  Sorry 'bout that. It is some sweetness with looks to kill :-)

I am low on stuff again, my Btc to $ strategy is not going as easily or cheaply as I had hoped. Not worried though. I think it is going to work fine and I have another temporary strategy as well. More Nugz Soon :-)

Post by: shmiddy269 on June 04, 2013, 02:10 am
As a preface to this review for NW Nugz, i understand that i am writing this from a lowly "50 post" account - but i've been in the weed game for a while now, so i hope that adds some credence to this review. I am copy and posting some of this from my feedback posted on NW's vendor page.

This was my first order ever with NW Nugz, and i stayed true to the phrase "go big or go home" and ordered a HP. This was a large order for NW Nugz as well as myself, and he required me to FE - i was a little sketched out at first, but after verifying his large forum presence and near 100% customer satisfaction i decided to pull the trigger and do it, and boy am i glad i did.

Update: product shipped tuesday, was at the door on thursday.
stealth: very clever stealth, had me laughing tbh. I received a QP of Sour Diesel and a QP of the Alien OG. I haven't gotten to try the Alien yet but i will update the review when i get the chance. There were only slight problems with this order. The first thing i would suggest to NW Nugz is to stick an extra MBB on qp's, just in case (this is just my personal preference). My second problem is that this order came in a little bit short, and the alien og came with about a gram or so of shake. if i'm paying 1700 for a HP, i really expect the weight to be on point with little to no shake in my sack. With that said, NW nugz hooked me up with some of the dankest ive ever seen on the road.

Sour Diesel

Appearance: Lime Green buds with light orange/pink hairs and absolutely FROSTED over. some of the most gorgeous sour i've ever seen.

Smell: The smell of this Sour hit me in the face after i opened the vac - a typical but intensified sour smell with sort of a candy finish if that makes sense - awesome scent.

Cure/Flush: This bud has a perfect cure. it's extremely sticky and breaks down perfectly.

Effect: This is a kick-you-in-the-head sativa, no doubt about it. after two bong hits i felt a rush to the head and just felt really motivated overall. The high lasted around 2 and a half long hours for me - really really impressive.

I was really impressed with NW Nugz sour diesel, it was some of the best i've ever gotten on the road. To top it off, his communication is top notch - For such a large FE order, I was pretty much worry-free.

Thanks NW, Ill definitely be back.

Here are some pics of the alien OG and sour, respectively!

Thanks for the nice review(s) :-)

Sad news: I have heard some people were not very happy with the "Cheese" I sent out recently. Other than the EMP smell issue, I have never heard real quality complaints during our time here. I have no reason to doubt peoples concerns since more than one person reported the issue. I did not notice the problem before shipping, and, for that I am very sorry.
I hear there may be tiny immature seeds in it that would explain a lack of potency. I will be more careful, and sadly, less trusting of my growers claims/opinions in the future. If anyone does not think the "Cheese" (by Kushster) they bought was "very good", they can request a 25% refund or credit or a freebie on their next order by sending a PM on SR mentioning SCI (Seed Cheese Incident) and please include the transaction number if you can.

Also, My investigation into Kushster's "Alien OG" that did not look quite right suggests it was actually "Deadhead OG". I am sorry for this mistake, at my end, as well. I am happy people have been liking that :-)

I hope to have new great stuff by the weekend and be able to put this all behind us. I'd like to thank everyone who came to me with the quality concerns first, rather than complain here or in my feedback. SR is amazing in that people usually seem to really care about each other's happiness and success :-) I appreciate the chance to say something here first and I don't mind if people want to discuss what's wrong with the "Cheese" on here. I think that's what a review thread should be for.

Saw some nice Sour Diesel today as a temptation to get cash to my suppliers. Cash is winding it's way through slow s-curves and over expensive hurdles and should be here by the weekend. When I have cash, I will know what's available rather quickly, I think.

A friend's fresh batch of EMP is available if you like Half Pounds:

Word.. I was one of the fellows who ordered the "cheese", and while I didn't notice anything off about it (Other then the fact that I have been blazing it like a madman) NW contacted me in regards to the quality issue, and we are in the process of resolving the matter.

I must make it clear that NW came to ME with the news, and made the offer to compensate.  I hadn't contacted them about anything, good or bad.  This shows me that NW Nugz is a stand-up dude and will be seeing more of my business in the future.

NW Nugz is the best weed vendor I've come across. While others had great service, NW Nugz is chill and very nice.. he gives top notch service and stealth. Buds are beautiful and CRYSTAL COATED as always  ;)!

My EMP I received a week or so ago, I put it in a jar and idk if its me or whatever, but it seems like it pulled out some more crystals from the bud. The smell is okay, some people care about smell but i care about potency and price lol. i think smell has more to do with freshness. It actually smells pungent if you keep it in a jar for a couple days.

I have the coins in my account and about to order more as soon as you put up your listings!

Unfortunately I missed out on the Cherry Cheesecake a few days ago. I saw you only had two left!

Thanks for the support everyone :-)

I'm in the "Checks in the mail" phase that should end soon and lead to listings :-)

The Cherry Cheesecake is arriving to people now and I hope someone will comment on it here. It looked awesome to me. To be honest (some more) the whole "Cheese Incident" was because I'm such a lightweight I get very high on about anything. I did not have anyone (other than the grower I trusted) with a high tolerance here (during the short time the Cheese was here) that could have warned me about it. I'll be being more careful about such things from now on. So, anyway, back to my point, The Cherry Cheesecake looked great and I hope it is :-)

Good news and bad news:
Good
Just got some headlight EMP. Will list it soon. One QP, rest OZ's (and samplers
for when I have two options).
Bacon Boy says he has some for me and I requested to meet him tomorrow
early - don't know, though, when we will connect. His is often the best I get.
Cash supposed to arrive with monday mail, so should get more from growers
I owe very soon.
Bad
Raising prices due to costs related to Bitcoins making it hard to come out ahead.
Sorry about that.

Cash flowed finally. Too tired tonight so will put up listings tomorrow for Good Sour Diesel and pretty good Deadhead OG. Will have QP's of those.

Quality should be great though.

There are close up picture links in the first post of this thread and in some reviews within this thread.

So, I broke up the SourD's and the Deadhead OG I have listed. The best is the Mr. Ed Sour Diesel that is currently only in the sampler listing. If you order the Sour Diesel by OG Dude and ask me to substitute the Mr. Ed kind (in the order), I will try to do so and give priority to the first who order.  The OG Dude Sour D is dank but not well manicured and not as nicely smelly as the Mr. Ed's is. Most people who get the OG Dude's SourD will be happy they did as it is very good bud. For those who are picky about trim jobs and want only the best, you can try to PM me first to make sure I have Mr. Ed's for you before ordering. I should add that the Mr. Ed's Sour Diesel does have a few stems that should have been trimmed off.

The Kushster's Deadhead OG
Most people who get this will be very happy with it. It is good. It is lightly smelly in a good way. Picky people may want to wait for something better.

I have pictures of all three but I need to sleep for like 10 hours and I am not sure I will get them all up first. SR makes us resize photos for listings now and it is a bit of a hassle when I'm beat. I'll get the Deadhead OG Photo up now as it does not have one. The SourD picture that is up now is similar to the Mr. Ed and better manicured/trimmed than the OG Dude.

hurr durr im an idiot hahaha; thanks NW!

I have another question to make things difficult for ya. Let's say I want the crush option sampler of EMP & Deadhead OG. What would the price be and would you have to do a custom listing? Or would it just be the sampler at the normal price? Just curious, my friend! Thanks for all your hard work and quick responses.

EDIT: +1 for you, my good sir.
Title: Re: NW Nugz - Vendor Review Thread - :-)
Post by: NW Nugz on June 14, 2013, 02:15 am
Thanks Parabolic45,
 Ya, the sampler price is set as is. No custom orders planned. If it really bothers anyone that the Deadhead is cheaper when getting a sampler with the Deadhead in it, you have my authorization to choose a cheaper shipping option (like the free 3OZ one) to give yourself a discount. I will ship with the recommended "crush pack" method.

That reminds me, I am on a personal mission to tell everyone I really do recommend the cheaper crush option for shipping a single OZ. The $14 medium box is way too big and weakens stealth a bit. I'll be trying to say something about this in all the OZ listing descriptions.

Bacon Boy remains elusive.

Got something new:
"Sour Diesel Purple x Strawberry  Cough"
    by Southern Boy

Looks good and smells sweet. It is good and stony. Seemed mentally uplifting at first and then I went to sleep (I was tired though). Looking forward to comments from others. It is very dry ("too dry" for some people). It is very well manicured. Buds are kinda small on average. I think this was dried to allow longer term storage and that this is a couple months old. Will be a little cheaper due to my perception of imperfection :-). Another new grower. I am still checking to be sure it is indoor.
Pounds look small and that suggests it is dense and resinous (since it is not moist).

Did not see a "Sour Diesel Purple", but, from Leafly:
"Strawberry Cough"
True to its name, Strawberry Cough has a sweet strawberry smell and thick smoke that will leave you coughing.  Provides a nice sativa buzz that will lift your spirits, great for going out and enjoying mother nature.  Overall a comfortable and enjoyable yet powerful experience.

I will be very busy July 8 -10 and closed July 11-15. I will probably take my listings down on the 9th and make a last shipment on the 10th. I am unlikely to access SR July 11th - 15th. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

I am very interested in getting a QP of your most beautiful, dank, nuggets.   What strain do you recommend, and what is price
Luckily, this question is not as bad as "which of your children do you love most". It is a challenge at the moment though. The Queen and Sour Diesel seem most dank on first impression. The Haze, Grapefruit and Pina Colada seem most beautiful with lots of red hairs and crystals. The EMP is sort of a compromise of almost as dank as the dankest and almost as good looking as the best looking. If I had to choose, I'd probably go for SourD or Pina Colada. I have looked closely at, but, have not tried the new strains yet, so my opinion may change over time. I don't have anything right now that most SR buyers would be disappointed by.

I got some of everything listed and some comments added to the listings. The price on all the best QP's is $950. I expect to be getting photos up of the new strains by Friday night. I don't expect the QP's listed will last long, especially the ones I just mentioned (since I mentioned them). I did not get more than a pound of any one strain.

Thanks for trying us out TwoHat :-)

I think I have photos up for all the new strains now. If you care and any seem to be missing or have the wrong name, let me know.

Btc are sure being a pain again.

The first of Headlight's seedling experiments has arrived:

Currently Unnamed cross:
"Seedling B" of
"Blue Dragon" x "Blackberry Kush"
By Headlight(TM)

[Listed as "? New Nugs ? named/described in Details" on NW Nugz's vendor listings]

Looks good and Crystally. Smells fruity. Photo is accurate although my best photo could have been a lot better photo. Not seeing much of the purple color we were dreaming of.
"Seedling B" has the nickname "Beast" so far due to it's growth behavior. First plant produced 228 grams. The EMP plant harvested at the same time produced 158 grams. Conditions were not equal, but, results look promising.
Bob Bitchin provided the seed without much background info.. I'll try to get more details.
3 female seedlings are being tested by Headlight and may get a name if any seem awesome.

Info on the parent strains from Leafly.com:
"Blue Dragon Cannabis Strain (Hybrid)
Blue Dragon is usually so dark purple that it looks black.  This weed has aromatic hints of fruity pebbles and grapes.

Blackberry Kush Cannabis Strain (Indica)
This mostly indica strain is a mix of Afghani and Blackberry strains and has beautiful dark purple buds with orange hairs. Plants will flower at 7-8 weeks and are not particularly high yielders, but the dense, hard nugs have crystals throughout. Blackberry Kush tends to have a hashy, jet fuel smell and taste that is balanced by sweet berries. Blackberry Kush is often recommended for the treatment of pain thanks to its strong indica body effects."

Post by: NW Nugz on July 24, 2013, 08:31 am
Just listed some Z's and QPs of:

Cherry Cheesecake!    By Lefty

Not as red/purple as most CC I have had (probably due to the seasonal heat). It does have red/purple on it and It is crystally and stony. I may get a picture of this batch if it does not sell out first. Photo on this listing is from a previous (more purple) batch. Bud size is good for CC and not as stemmy as some batches. I recommend this stuff :-)

I tried looking up the variety online for parentage. Did not find it exactly. I'd guess it is another Sativa dominant Variety. I'd say it has a heady high with light to medium body numbing. It is fruity-tasting, crystal coated and kinda pinkish with purple. 

When I saw B. Boy's plants just before harvest, I had to have some. The buds looked very unusual/colorful from a distance. Reddish pinkish kinda explains it, lol. A curiosity for the growers entertainment and you can kinda see it in the dry product. It is popular with buyers here. It is a fast finisher and I dont think it yields a lot, and thus, may not be seen much in the future?

Listed a good batch of Sour Diesel. Photo is accurate. could use a bit less stem and a better trim job, but not too bad.

Listed a small amount of (but need a photo):
 "Grape Ape"   By  Headlight(tm)
Looks good and has a fruity smell. Not purple though. Nice dense buds medium size on average.
Leafly says:
Grape Ape has a sweet smell and very strong grape taste.  Delivers a nice just-right indica punch, not a complete knock out.  A favorite for pain relief and other medicinal uses. 

Also listed a little bit of a new seedling ("A") of:
"Blue Dragon" x "Blackberry Kush"
By Headlight(TM)
Looks good and Crystally. Photo is of "Seedling B".
"Seedling A" looks the same.

Currently, I only have it in the "Sampler" listing but people have asked what cross "Cherry Cheesecake" comes from. I have recently heard a rumor that C.C.= "Cherry Soda" (F) x (M) "Super Silver Haze x Cheese". Also, that there is a "Black C. C. that comes from a "Black Cherry Soda" x (same Male).

I tried looking up the variety online for parentage. Did not find it exactly. I'd guess it is another Sativa dominant Variety. I'd say it has a heady high with light to medium body numbing. It is usually fruity-tasting, crystal coated and kinda pinkish/reddish with purple.

I'm pretty much sold out of buds at the moment.
Bitcoin price is nice but getting cash anonymously is still being a pain. Hard to get more buds when I have no Dollars to trade. I am working on getting the cashflow issue sorted and expect to get more buds very soon :-)

Post by: fl4r3 on August 25, 2013, 03:45 am
Hopefully you are able to figure out a way that works for you soon, I'd love to see some of your delicious buds up again :)

Particularly that Headlight EMP, that stuff still blows my mind :)

Can't wait to see your listings up again, I'm waiting on baited breath
Title: Re: NW Nugz - Vendor Review Thread - :-)
Post by: NW Nugz on August 26, 2013, 02:21 am
Got Nugz! :-)

Just got some nice "Amsterdam Haze"
Slightly stemmy and smaller budded on average, but looks good. I'll know more tomorrow.

And
Just got some "Black Cherry Cheesecake"
Probably all the Cherry Cheesecake I have been getting is really "Black Cherry Cheesecake". I'll try to find out if people know about that.
Also, slightly stemmy and smaller budded on average, but looks good. I'll know more tomorrow. Kinda purple, but not real dark like it sometimes is (in cooler weather).

And, a small amount of EMP should be available approximately Monday night. I think only OZ's and samplers though if an EMP fan really wants a QP, PM me on SR before Monday eve and I'll see what I can do.

And, I see "Purple Hogtrain" and "Bacon" coming soon in pretty small amounts.

I'll go get some listings up now :-)
Title: Re: NW Nugz - Vendor Review Thread - :-)
Post by: NW Nugz on August 27, 2013, 10:51 am
I just listed a few Zs and a couple samplers of "EMP" by HeadLight(tm). I tried to get more but there was a bit of a grass-roots movement to stop the Export of EMP to foreign lands (anywhere East of Idaho). Now that there is a local shortage of EMP, we are finding out the locals were quietly getting addicted to it and noone knew/admitted to it until the supply ran low. It appears in Headlight's variety trials currently in progress, some other great varieties out-produce it and so it may remain rare unless it can be sourced elsewhere. I'm working on that.
Title: Re: NW Nugz - Vendor Review Thread - :-)
Post by: NW Nugz on August 30, 2013, 03:10 am
Great news! Just got a look at something new from a new grower. "Deathstar"! Looks Dank. Not as well trimmed as I prefer, but, I think this may give our Sour Diesel some serious competition in the Dank Department :-) I'll get it listed when I know more tomorrow. Hope to get a bunch of QPs and smaller.
Title: Re: NW Nugz - Vendor Review Thread - :-)
Post by: NW Nugz on August 30, 2013, 11:45 pm
The "Death Star" (Sour Diesel x Sensi Star) looks good and I have it listed now :-)

I will list smaller amounts of "Purple Hogtrain" and "Bacon" from Headlight today also. They are discussed some in the second post of this thread. The Hogtrain is not very purple (but was trying to get that way without much success in the hot weather). It looks a little on the Indica side of the scale. I'll probably list it as a hybrid. The Bacon smells like buring DMT to me. I'm not fond of that smell though it may bring back fond memories for some people ;-). It grew like a Sativa and is likely on that side of the scale. I think they will both be popular with people who get a chance to try them. [EDIT: Watch out for the Bacon, I'm not sure people will like it. Burning DMT flavor if you ask me. Very strange.]

For those having trouble logging into SR, here is my recent comment from elsewhere in the Forum with my tips for getting on:

"I have to try a few times and have more trouble during the USA-daytime, but have been able to get on SR regularly. No trouble vending effectively.
Here are some tricks:

Put on your tinfoil hat :-)
Make sure silkroad is allowed on noscript (may not really matter)
Go to a Https website (you trust) in a browser tab to make sure you have a good Tor connection.
Once it loads fully, then, pretty quickly attempt to load SR on a different tab.
Once you do so, do Not look at a different tab until SR loads. Keep you mouse curser on the page SR is about to load on.
Keep the cursor moving on that page. (apparently, if you click over to another tab or stop moving your cursor, The page gives up trying as hard to load as it assumes you are not really there anymore).
Be patient and keep trying if it does not work. I don't think clicking "try again" (on a failed connection page) works as well as hitting a link/bookmark, or, "go" or "enter" in the address bar.
If this is not working, even when you are patient, you can try right clicking the green onion icon to try a "New Identity".

If you get to the log in page and the captcha has letters but no numbers, reload the page until it has both.
Once you are in, stay active or you may start to get a slower and slower connection. If that happens, be patient and speeds should pick up again.
If SR gets really, really slow; look forward to getting logged out and having to re-log in. I think of that as SR (or Tor?) clearing out the bots. Afterwards things usually run fast again.
If you took my "Put on your tinfoil hat :-)" comment seriously at the beginning, you might want to keep it on. Experts would probably tell you you can take it off now, though :-)"

Listing some "Purple HogTrain"     by HillBilly Clan tonight
(QPs and Samplers) Still have a couple Zs of headlight's "Purple HogTrain" up.
And
"Grape Ape"    by HeadLight(tm) should get listed Tuesday night.
Title: Re: NW Nugz - Vendor Review Thread - :-)
Post by: NW Nugz on September 11, 2013, 03:45 am
Listed a little Grape Ape that looks very good.

Also got a bunch of:
"Queen"      By Brownie

New batch does not look like any Queen I have gotten before. I have a feeling the name on the bag is a mistake. Looks kind of like a sativa.  Medium size buds.  Current listing photo is not accurate, but it does look kinda like that. I will get a new picture soon. This stuff looks a little more brown than it should in my opinion. I think it is kinda older or was sealed in a bag and kept too warm. I will sell it cheaper. If you are finnicky about perfection, I would choose something else.

Wasn't very impressed with the EMP by headlight, I was actually disappointed to say the least.. There were a lot of nugs with immature seeds in them very very small.... It was brittle dry, to the point beyond a good cure, and the smell taste were severely lacking. While it was a sativa up high, it was short-lived heady kind you get from plants picked too early or where the potency is lost due to energy being put into the seeds. I left a 5/5 for posterity I will not be ordering again.

*edit* I see a lot of other people saying they enjoyed it thoroughly.. I find it hard to imagine it's the same bud we're talking about, I have a feeling I got the end of the batch, even though there wasn't any shake.

The EMP is known for not having impressive smell/taste. It may have been too dry as well? But tiny seeds? I agree it is "hard to imagine it's the same bud we're talking about". I wonder if someone switched it on you at your end? There is not likely to be any "end of the batch" issue here, and, if there was, it would not be seedier. Recent EMP was all from one big plant. All harvested at once and mixed in a bag. The plant was not immature at harvest time, I saw it.
I appreciate your comment as I do want people to say what they honestly think here. If anyone else got the EMP in the last couple weeks and sees this, please look for the tiny seeds (if it is not too late). Be honest, don't try to make me happy by not telling us if there is an issue, I wan't to know.

Hi NW Nugz =)

Are you anticipating getting new strains soon? I keep reading rave reviews on your EMP by Headlights, and I can't wait to try some of it or even some of the Blackberry Kush.

Thanks!
Title: Re: NW Nugz - Vendor Review Thread - :-)
Post by: NW Nugz on September 14, 2013, 03:37 pm
Thanks for the interest Jorgev :-)

I have a pretty broad selection at this time. I just added:

"Pineapple"      By Brownie
New batch does not look like any Pineapple I have gotten before. I don't know the grower of this and i don't know much about it. Medium size buds. It looks like very good crystally bud and is kinda soft like the Deathstar. Needed a better trim job, is a little stemmy (but not bad). Current photo is accurate. This stuff looks a little more brown than it should in my opinion. I think it is a couple months old or was sealed in a bag and kept too warm. I will sell it a little cheaper. If you are finnicky about perfection, I would choose something else.

I don't have any EMP getting close that I know of. I do have some of the "Blue Dragon" x "Blackberry Kush"
By Headlight(TM) seedlings coming in a week or so. They look and smell good.

Of my current bud listings, I think the Deathstar, Grape Ape and Purple Hogtrain are all especially good choices at the moment.

Title: Re: NW Nugz - Vendor Review Thread - :-)

Blue Dragon x Blackberry Kush sounds absolutely AMAZING. Can't wait to cop some of that!

Sales have been slow since the new feedback system removed most of my transacions from my vendor page (only transactions where feedback is left now show up). I have been lucky to find some great bud, so my listings are pretty flush at this time. I just got some great:
"Blue Dream"     By Hillbilly Clan

It is Crystal-coated , fruity smelling, nice orangy-red hairs. Unlikely to disappoint anyone :-) This strain grown by Bacon Boy won this years SR 420 competition's Sativa category. There are Two different Blue Dreams going around our area. This one is the better one. Organic.

So, Of my current bud listings, I think the Deathstar, Blue Dream, Grape Ape and Purple Hogtrain are all especially good choices at the moment :-) All Indoor, soil grown and top shelf :-) I have never had a better selection at one time:-)

I think everyone know by now that you are an established top notch vendor, it just gets kind of hard to make a buck off of 4000/lb goods. I think everyone is currently in search of the best price/quality ratio.

True, that is an issue. My prices are pretty high. I want everyone to be happy and find those better deals when they can. Cheaper prices on "indoor" have not arrived in my area yet. I think the flood of "Outdoor" should arrive soon to help push indoor prices down. I'd guess CA has outdoor come in before the NW due to the warmer weather? So, maybe they are already making a lot of good deals?
My sales crashed when the feedback update came out (and made new vendors look as busy as established ones). I did raise the price on the Death Star and can understand if it sells slower. I still think the update has depressed my sales, but, I agree it is not the only factor.
Title: Re: NW Nugz - Vendor Review Thread - :-)
Post by: jorgev on September 17, 2013, 02:24 pm
I don't know about your bulk prices, but your OZ and lower prices seem pretty fair to me considering the quality of your bud. There are plenty of vendors on SR selling OZs that are the same quality as yours for $300-380 and people are still buying from them. Right now you're a very underrated vendor, but give it a few months and I have a feeling that's gonna change =)

Post by: NW Nugz on September 18, 2013, 09:36 am
Thanks Jorgev :-)  +1 to you and Suavee :-)

Ya, I don't do much of a discount for bulk and so bulk buyers are usually the ones who find my prices too high.  After complaining about low sales earlier, my sales have really picked up for the last few days. Thanks everyone :-) I hope there is not some news I missed about how Btc values are about to drop, lol. <unhedged>

A stable Btc, ahhh the dream :-) Sounds good to me :-) 
The Blue Dragon x Blackberry Kush you were wanting is hanging :-)

Just added a listing (nugz #3) for a little:
"Larry" (Master Kush x Headband)   by Southern Boy
Smells good, Looks very good with lots of Crystals. Looks like an Indica. Larry is a local name connected to the breeder, I believe. There may be a more official name for this?     Edit: Picture is correct now.

 of the Blue Dragon x Blackberry Kush
Jorgev was waiting for :-)
Looks good and Crystally. Smells good :-). Looks like a Sativa dominant to me.

SR is in and out for me and I am falling asleep as I wait for pages to hopefully load. I have been very busy and going for like 24 hours straight. I added a couple items in the listings. I shipped to everyone I said I would ship to today. I am having trouble confirming shipments tonight, so, I am going to sleep for like 10 hours. Then I will tidy up my loose ends when SR will hopefully be more stable. I see more orders but cant message the buyers tonight. I'll get right on that in about 10 hours ;-). Next shipping day is Wednesday. It is great to be busy :-) Thanks everyone.

EDIT:  I think I'm caught up now :-) Shooting for shipping early Wed. for a good chance for arrival by Saturday.

I have been very busy and I'm running out of things. I'll be restocking as soon as I get a chance :-) Bitcoins are being a pain as usual, but, at least they seem pretty stable these days which makes not converting them to $ as fast as we would hope much less painful than it could be. SR is mostly working these days and the upgraded Tor/Tails version has made most of my tips (in the first post of this thread and on my vendor page) on how to get past network overload seem unnecessary most of the time :-)
Happy Pumpkin Season :-)

Post by: NW Nugz on October 02, 2013, 04:00 pm
SR appears seized atm. I shipped all my orders except the last couple from ...waldo/sherpa. And b'boy's is on hold as the box I have to ship did not match his new order.  b'boy: Let me know if you want the box of pure PHogT you asked me to prepare shipped instead of what you ordered.

Edit: I have lost over $10,000 worth of Btc if SR does not allow me access to them in some way. I owe growers and will not be able to ship anymore of their buds without an expectation of getting paid. I can not express how badly I hope SR returns our Btc. I am sick about the loss and about the 3 customers who will not get their shipments unless SR lets some coins through. I am truly sorry for the worry this is causing those buyers and the possible non-shipment.
Title: Re: NW Nugz - Vendor Review Thread - :-)
Post by: NW Nugz on October 02, 2013, 09:12 pm
If SR is really down for the count and does not send coins to backup addresses, we are really damaged as we had way too many coins on SR (was trying to exchange them, should have moved a bunch off SR though). Had a shitload in escrow also, of course. I really hope SR has a backup and has not lost all it's wallets.

My pgp is linked in my forum sig. and copied below. I don't have an email I consider safe, though I should probably try to change that.

If the feds have the data they claim to have, they can pretend to be my favorite customers. I am getting various requests from strangers asking for back-up connections. I can tell at least one of them has never really ordered from me before. If you want to continue to have a way to contact us, you can send me an address or email or.... and I will reach out when I figure out a way that seems safe. If that is not satisfactory to you, let me know and I may be able to find a way to make this work. I do want to connect with at least some of my favorite customers if SR is really down for good. I am also looking into BMR and maybe the sheep place. BMR seems more likely. I will say Thanks to all my great customers, and, I hope to see you again soon :-)

im working on that now NW NUGS, like that i can get some contact info, set up so i can still get my dank, because my bday needs some EMP in my life.

i will make a new PGP just in case , but i will soon need some dank, i know BMR has escrow and what not, so that can be for the meantime

I just joined BMR with the same vendor name.
http://5onwnspjvuk7cwvk.onion/index.php

I'd guess people can message me there. If not, see my last message above as a backup.

EDIT: I have funded my account to become a vendor there. They only approve new vendors on Mon/Wed/Friday and I think I missed Wed., so I should be official on Friday and start adding listings. Don't know what I am doing there, so we shall see :-)

Awesome to see you still doing work, sorry for your losses! Your one of my favorite weed vendors on the road.

I'll probably be seeing you on BMR :)

I'm in :-) Official vendor over on BMR! Same vendor name.  I am very sick with a flu and it may be a couple days before I get all my listings up. If you can get in there, message me over there. If you can't find me there, message here to let me know you can't find me.
I have not gotten any messages there yet.

Good to hear! Was planning on buying my next oz from you, when the road went down thought I'd never be able to resupply...still have enough for several months (I'm a very slow smoker, combined with job and school I go through somewhere around a g a month tops), but the idea of facing a lack of EMP within the next year was rather depressing...especially as it would mean having to deal with local dealers that have zero respect for their customers and are just in general not pleasant people to deal with. I can confirm that you are visible on BMR.

My sympathies for your financial loss...I had money sitting in my account, wasn't much really but it was quite a bit to me. I don't think anyone will be seeing their money again, as from what I've gathered the feds have control over all the BTC involved with Silk Road, and there is some doubt as well regarding the automatic withdrawals in case of site crash working in this case. But we will see, all we can do is hope for the best.

Feel better soon and best of luck!

How the fuck do you message or favorite a vendor that doesnt have any listings?

Glad to see you will still be around. Sorry for your loss though.

I'll see you around BMR then.

R.I.P. Silk Road

Just made it out of bed. Feeling better. Will try to get a listing up soon in case people cant message me there until I do. Expect it will still take a day or so to get my act together :-)

I made an account in BMR's forum, same name also. I think I can get messages there also.
