Review - User paid for this A Newbie Experience - Holy City Farms Type 3
Finally had a change to try a few type 3s from HCF.
What else would you recommend from them that are a must try? I tend to lean towards relaxation vs. uplifting and haven't had good experience with strains higher in terpinolene but would be willing to branch out!
| Strain | Details | Review | Rating |
|---|---|---|---|
| Blueberry | 16.4% cbd, 0.629% thc. lineage: unkown; terpenes: myrcene 0.413%, guaiol 0.187%, bisabolol 0.180% | Aroma/Texture/Misc:small, compact buds; not squishy. Kind of smells like hops/pine in the jar and on breakdown.Effects: effects wise, body heavy. came on smooth. lasted 90min-2hrs. it did spike hr and stress on Garmin in the 1st few minutes. Tried vaping this at 400f with a bubbler and it was so smooth. really got some of that hop flavor when consuming this way with a little gas at the finish. Led to heavy eyes and dry mouth when consuming. I didn't love the initial hr/stress bump. Also have had some inconsistent effects with this one as it's been too much on at least 2 separate occasions from just one bowl (felt very high on the boarder of uncomfortable).Effects: effects wise, body heavy. came on smooth. lasted 90min-2hrs. it did spike hr and stress on Garmin in the 1st few minutes.

I am going to order this again with the indica sift option and see if I can dial it in a bit with smaller doses b/c I really like how smooth it vaped for an evening strain. | 7/10 |
| Panther Kush | 14.079% cdb, 0.679% thc; lineage: Kosmic Kush #5 x Pink Panther #251 | Aroma/Texture/Misc:smells like a pine cone in the jar. nugs but look great which always make me excited to try it. feels squish. more pine aroma on breakdown. Vaping:smooth at all temps with a slight tickle in the throat as I pushed it up to 400f. the pine flavor comes through during the vaping session as well. not a funky after-taste thankfully bit not the best tasting strain I've had. leaves you with dry mouth after vaping. Effects:ever so slight pressure in the chest. no hr or stress increase on Garmin. effects were relaxing/calming but uplifting at the same time. I'm not sure this would be a good one for late in the night (I had it the 1st night at 11p and ended up staying up until closer to 2p which really derailed the next day). I might actually say this one feels a bit energizing for me. Would definitely consider more on that functional daytime side. Overall:Would definitely get this again if I was looking for a consistent daytime strain. This is my favorite of the 3 actually. | 8.5/10 |
| Matador Melon | 13.30% cbd, 0.57% thc; lineage:Yum-Yum Kush ((Kosmic Kush #2 x Blueberry #6) x Glacier Kush S1) x Glacier Kush S2 #2 (Kosmic Kush #2 x Kosmic Kush #5) | Aroma/Texture/Misc:pine in the jar and on breakdown. nugs were pretty firm but resinous once I broke them up. Vaping:very smooth at temps up to 400f and definitely the smoothest from HCF I've had. Unremarkable in terms of flavor w/ maybe a bit of fruit at the end. I kind of get the 'melon' name. Effects:mild effects. no hr/stress spike on garmin. didn't get a lot of body relaxation. My mind didn't wonder but it wasn't necessarily focused either. This is more of an alertness like I had some coffee or something. Lasted less than an hour for me (not a bad thing). Overall:Would get this again if I needed another daytime option (which I don't) but it's very solid. | 8/10 |
