Let's get one thing out of the way: Animal Burnie sounds like the class clown of a Saturday morning cartoon, and I mean that as the highest possible compliment. Because here's what I've learned chasing flower around this state - the strains with the most personality in the jar almost always have the most personality in the name, and this one shows up grinning. After picking it up outside Story Dispensary in Hyattsville, it introduced itself immediately as I cracked it open: w

I was excited to try one of the newest drops from RHYTHM, Afternoon Delight 4 and I knew that first impressions were going to mean everything. With this being a GMO cross, I was already expecting some funk, but I was pleasantly surprised with how many other notes were present...

Let's talk packaging, because Fade Co. clearly wants us to. The Holy Grail line arrives in a miniature sneaker box - paint-splattered, "for those who know" stamped on the flap, the whole hypebeast liturgy - and inside the jar you'll find a pack of Elements papers and a glass tip tucked alongside the flower like a lace-swap in a deadstock release.

There's a specific genius in naming a strain Banana Bread, because everyone already has a feeling about banana bread before they've smelled a single nug. It's the food equivalent of a warm blanket — nostalgic, unpretentious, quietly indulgent. Shauncron clearly understood the assignment. Bred during the solventless gold rush, this was his answer to a gap he spotted in the market: a plant that could pump out world-class hash and leave behind gorgeous, flavorful flower instead

I'll confess a bias up front: I am helpless against anything with "Runtz" in its family tree, and Pink Lobster arrives with impeccable candy credentials. This is Cotton Candy Runtz crossed with Blue Lobster — a pairing that sounds less like a cannabis strain and more like the dessert menu at a seaside carnival run by someone with questionable impulse control. Maine Trees, appropriately enough given the name, brings this pheno down to The Flowery in Tampa, and the result is a

By now, Super Boof needs no introduction. Since exploding into 2024's Strain of the Year, it's been damn near impossible to walk into a dispensary without seeing it on the menu — the citrus-and-dark-fruit darling that every grower suddenly had to have. But ubiquity is a double-edged sword: when a cultivar gets this popular this fast, quality and authenticity start to vary wildly from batch to batch and grower to grower. For every jar that captures the original San Diego cut's
