Freddy’s Fuego: Specimen X

This Freddy’s Fuego weed is so damn good – every year they do a pheno hunt and then let Freddy’s fans vote on the keepers. This year, Specimen X is a strain that has Freddy’s madly excited. She appears as part of the brand’s The Hunt box.

Specimen X comes from a breeding collaboration between TikiMadman and Clearwater Genetics. She crosses Project 4516 (a Gelato x Gelato hybrid) with Devil Driver. As you can imagine, the Specimen X terps come through heavily with the Gelato influence.

According to Freddy’s, Specimen X smells like a nutty ice cream cake with added cherry and gas undertones. Freddy’s says it reminds them of chocolate-covered cherries. The high is strong and offers relaxing effects that make it easy and fun to engage in creative pursuits.

Binske: Walk on water, melon

Dude, the Watermelon terps on that Walk On Water, Melon are so damn crazy. Binske has a real deal Holyfield on deck with this one.

Binske’s Walk On Water, Melon was bred by Natura Life + Science. She is a cross between Watermelon Zkittlez and Jesus OG, hence the name. She has a fruity, watermelon-like smell that definitely carries over into the smoke.

You can expect the Walk On Water, Melon effects to be intoxicating and relaxing. It might also put you to sleep in high doses, because boy have I been outside every time I’ve rolled a joint — which is why Binske suggests saving that for consumption at the end of the day.

Binske sold out instantly from his first round of Walk On Water, Melon, but the reissue will be available across California in March and the months that follow.

Country Cannabis: Northern Funk

Country Cannabis is a new brand in California. His whole jam revolves around “light” cannabis. Essentially, light cannabis has higher levels of CBD, so the effects don’t hit people as hard. In addition, Country Cannabis offers high THC products for the traditional cannabis smoker. On the THC-rich side, Northern Funk is a pretty good strain.

Northern Funk was bred by Bodhi Seeds and selected by Ladybug Farms. A cross between Northern Lights and GMO, it has a fruity, funky, and piney smell, while the taste has a nutty, slightly sweet undertone. All of this is thanks to myrcene, caryophyllene, and pinene in her terpene profile.

The Northern Funk High is calming and relaxing. It’s great for creating gentle effects that make you feel less anxious and more social. That kickback kind of high, you know?
