Initial Thoughts

The name is a wink - creme de la creme for the chem family - and SunMed's cut makes the case. It's one of the most widely grown flowers in the state right now, and for good reason. We picked ours up at Chesapeake Apothecary in White Plains.

Appearance

Classic chem structure: medium-dense spears of mossy green, wiry orange pistils, an even workmanlike frost. Built for the grinder, and proud of it.

Status

Consistent cure across the batch. This one lists at 35.17% total THC - remarkably high for a chem this smooth.

Aroma

Sour diesel funk, wet earth, and a lemon-pine edge - unmistakably chem from across the room, sharp enough to clear a sinus.

Flavor

That signature sour-rubber chem bite on the inhale, earthy-citrus smoothness on the exhale. Familiar in the way the classics are.

Lineage

Reported as Chem D (Chemdog) x I-95, per Weedmaps; the original breeder isn't publicly documented. The Chemdog inheritance needs no paperwork - it announces itself when the grinder closes.

Effects

The chem surprise: bright, alert, and clear at the start, loose and comfortable at the finish, with none of the heaviness that usually rides shotgun with this much funk. A true any-hour flower - we'd smoke it at noon or at ten.

Conclusion

Chem de la Chem is a dependable daily driver for diesel devotees, and SunMed grows it right. Chesapeake Apothecary keeps it stocked deep.
