Chronicles of Site Reorganization Part 1

Dear Millions of Beloved Readers,

Hey. We're compiling more... uh... "content" whilst we reorganize for a site move.

The new digs will incorporate local art and culture coverage with a clean new feel.  And pot.

We will be on 421Review.com after January. I'll be chronicling our shit over the next few weeks, so check back for periodic updates. Later.

Blue Diesel

So, if you take part in the cannabis experience often, you've probably heard of strains called Sour Diesel, NYC Diesel, or Princess Diesel.  If not, you absolutely must try them. Or better yet, you should try this new hybrid strain called Blue Diesel.

Blue Diesel (henceforth known as BD) is very much like its Sour Diesel counterpart. It has rich fruity flavors, strong citrus smells, and a tangy aftertaste. However, I found that BD offered up one big  difference: its blue! No, seriously, the buds of this new strain actually have a blue hue, which would make sense considering that its made up of Blue Cheese and Sour Diesel. There are some reports that its actually Blueberry, which makes sense, but that's actually the Himilaya Blue Diesel. 

At first glance, you can't help but just fall in love with BD. Its blue and white hues, shimmering crystals, and plentiful red hairs, make it an absolute gorgeous bud. I found it offered up all the characteristics of an instant classic. Particularly, when vaporized; the flavors just never seemed to stop. It was literally an explosion of fruitiness that ended with a spicy but sour tang. You could just as easily pack yourself a nice fat bowl and enjoy the ride, but you'll lose a lot of the aforementioned flavors.

The experience itself was very pleasing. I felt like I was catapulted into the heavens (HAHA) within just a few seconds. Very much like Sour Diesel, you immediately feel a permeating explosion in your head and body that is very pleasing. No dreaded couch lock here; you feel completely cognitive and aware of your surroundings.

Overall, BD is phenomenal! It provided all of the characteristics of an old-school favorite, but with a new twist. I would recommend this bud for all users who are looking for something that isn't going to give them the anxiety that comes along with a lot of newer hybrids.

Kush (SF Hydro)

This Kush drops a sweet chemical bomb of splendid stupidity. If not for my even more prolific coffee habit, the notion of writing this review may never have occurred. I am morbidly content.

It's perfect that I have nothing to do aside from getting a haircut and maybe grabbing a burrito -- maybe chicken Pra Ram instead. Or maybe both.

Come to think of it, I'll also be grabbing a larger sack of this Kush. It's the tits.

Thank God I have ice cream in the fridge.

Yum Yum Good Bar

OK, so remember when you were a kid, and you would get space ice cream in those little metal foil packages? Well, this is the same concept, with one exception...these little foiled treats actually take you to space.

Slightly bigger than a cliff bar, these raspberry infused shortbread treats from the Vapor Room not only taste amazing, they pack a punch. Each bar is two doses, and at just $6.00, you can't go wrong. I can personally guarantee you'll be feeling like Ziggy Stardust in 45 minutes or less, with a high that can last upwards of 4-6 hours.

Aside from being extremely potent and incredibly delicious, Vapor Room's little wonder is not terribly sweet. In the past, I've found that a lot of clinics like to use massive amounts of sugar to cover the taste of cannabis. This, to me, is a big no-no. The Yum Yum Good Bar reminds me of my grandma's raspberry cobbler.

As we've mentioned before on 421 Review, edibles should be approached with caution. If you're new to eating cannabis, you may only want to eat half the bar, or less. Otherwise, you'll need the assistance of ground control and Major Tom.
