Medium Grade UK Review!

Medium Grade UK Review!
Well, I'm back to the last couple reviews. I was reluctant to do them due to the reception last time however I had some people comment and message me that have bought since. If it helps even a couple, then I'm willing to continue. If you feel reluctant to read due to past circumstances, then that's perfectly understandable. That being said, due to them being within the same batch, these were again sent as a freebie. Regardless let's get into it. Being as there's only two strains, they will be my usual detailed reviews. You can check them out from the link above!
Watermelon Pie:
Packaging:
Instead of constantly repeating myself on this subject and it being the same vendor from previous reviews, I will no longer list the packaging from GC. I will only add it if there's been differences from before, in this case, everything is as usual. You can check my previous reviews if you want more details on packaging.
Appeal:
At first glance, the nugs look quite dense and firm. Once picked up however you soon realise it's a lot stickier than expected. Has a lot of purple leaves mixed with the typical orange hairs we're all used to seeing now. When you break it apart you can definately feel the THC stick to your hand. Once broken apart it almost feels quite fluffy compared to sticky, like touching a pillow.
Smell:
It has a unique fruity smell to it I'm sure however I wouldn't really say it resembles watermelon personally. For me it smelt more of a mixed berries with a much softer potency than the actual thing. Once ground it definately smells much stronger but the smell doesn't differ much. This I like as I feel nowadays it's difficult to have bud that smells the same once ground out.
Taste/Smoke:
Quite a mellow smoke. I enjoyed smoking this one in the morning. I suffer from headaches when I wake up and usually smoking makes it worse (who would have thought). I didn't get that with this, it enlightened me and made me feel more awake. In terms of the taste, I felt more of a sour melon come through more than anything but not watermelon. Very similar taste to a sour lemon haze but without the haze qualities. Quite odd to smoke but not exactly hard to smoke either. Also interesting that whilst smoking, I didn't get any of the mixed berry qualities come through that I had when smelling it.
Amnesia Haze:
Appeal:
This looked exactly how I would expect amnesia to look. Bright orange hairs and quite thin long buds. This is how proper amnesia should look in my opinion. Similar to Super Silver or old school White Widow. Wasn't too dense either which I feel most modern grown haze is. Had that perfect mix of being dense but airy.... Dairy...
Smell:
Not as strong as you may predict, may even throw you off originally of thinking if it is amnesia or not. Once you break it apart you can definately smell that ammo but again, not as strong as I was expecting it to be. I'm still in two minds if this is a good thing or not. When I get haze, I also have the expectancy of it being strong and to knock me out. Nowadays however after after all these years smoking, I think it's for the best. I need to relax not fly so this one really does depend on what you're looking for to begin with. This personally to me has a very mellow amnesia smell compared to what I'm used to.
Taste/Smoke:
I feel most of what I've said in the previous section regarding the smell sort of comes in to play here too. When smoking it's again not as strong as expected. In comparison to my thoughts on the smell, it packs more of a punch than it lets off, but still has a mellow vibe to it. I hope everything I've been saying actually makes sense as it's quite difficult to explain this Amnesia. I think due to me not having it in so long and with all the different levels of potency you can get nowadays, it doesn't really scratch that itch anymore. My reasoning for purchasing this now I'd say would probably be purely for the haze feeling that is so hard to come across now. Although it may not be as strong as I expected, it's still a haze, and if a haze is what you're after then you still cannot go wrong.
Final Thoughts:
Would I agree with them being classed as medium? Yes. They aren't top of the line however they are also far from terrible. I would say I enjoyed the Watermelon Pie more purely because it was new and I didn't have any expectations. It was just very difficult to explain that strain and put it into words. Something like Amnesia, a strain I've had countless times, I can typically write more about. This can be said about any new strain that I've tried. I tend to struggle putting across something that is still new to me and results in slimer description that what some would expect. I hope that explains to some people why some of my detailed reviews aren't quite detailed as mentioned. The haze is just fortunate to have my 14 year old self as reference rather than if it was a first try.

Low Grade UK Review!

Low Grade UK Review!
This is the last review out of that bunch. Hopefully these reviews have helped people make an informative decision regardless of the controversy. Once again, I will not be listing packaging on this particular review. Please see previous reviews for packaging information. You can find the link to the listing above.
Appeal:
Honestly, not the best to look at. It seems something may have gone wrong with the grow and the buds are quite leafy and with quite a few stems. I would say it does have the Super Silver qualities however. Thinner nugs rather than fat and quite airy. This is typically how SSH is grown however I'd say this definately had a poor grow in some sort of way.
Smell:
The smell is actually incredible. It smells pretty much exactly how you expect SSH to smell. Has that very strong haziness to it and it's almost as if you can feel the THC run through your nose. Once ground, nothing changes, if anything it gets better. Considering the nugs aren't the best, the grinding experience wasn't any different than normal weed. Actually ground out to a decent amount but that smell really reminded me why any Haze is my favourite strain.
Taste/Smoke:
Does exactly what it says on the tin. Makes you feel like you're actually gliding on Silver Surfers hoverboard. The smell doesn't just stay in your grinder, the second your spark that joint you'll be hit with that same aroma. The following points I'd say is probably due to the poor grow. Although the smell is there from the joint itself, it doesn't quite come through the same when smoking it. Same with the overall strength. It seems as if it was potentially rushed leading to the poor nug structure and potentially lower THC count. I would not however say it's weak. The strength is still there but I can imagine if the grow was spot on, it would be a lot stronger.
Final Thoughts:
It's a shame it's a poor grow, otherwise I would have rated this 10/10. Super Silver is one of my all time favourite strains and whenever I'm in Dam, it's always the one I smoke the most. I think if you were to buy this basing it off Dam quality, then you'd be slightly disappointed. But as the title says, GC has marked it as low grade. You can't expect import level of quality with something this cheap. That being said, due to the price, it's also not a waste. If you don't like it, you don't like it. I personally would not be disappointed if I did buy it once I got past the grow issues.
6.5/10

High Grade UK Review!

High Grade UK Review!
These will just be smaller reviews due to the amount of strains there are. Hopefully this doesn't hinder the views and opinions that I usually come across. There's also a few people "upset" I guess at the fact I'm getting send products in favour of making a review. Whilst this is true, it doesn't automatically mean all my reviews are dishonest or invalid. I review everything with the intention of helping people make easier decisions rather than guessing or hoping it's going to be for you. I have had items sent by GC that have had no effect and opted out of doing said review. If I cannot be honest with my review then I will simply not do it at all, If there are points/things I do not like, I also state so too, just like any other review I have done. I have done a review for TGT which was purchased by myself, the quality of the review was no different. Whether it's bought or sent to me, the review will not change. Regardless, let's crack on. You can look at the strains from the link above.
Orange Slushy:
I'm a sucker for orange bud so this was 10/10. The nugs were really dense and the tanginess was amazing. Grinds out really well and you can even smell the orange from the smoke coming off the joint. Not too much on the chest either but it packs a big high when smoking yet still creeps up on you. I've never been able to top any of the cherry pie strains as those are my favourite but this is definately second for sure.
Sherbet OG:
This is a strong one. Reminded me a lot of Stardawg in terms of the nugs. Has that gassy smell and extremely dense nugs with loads of orange hairs. Once ground out though the Dawg qualities are gone. Still has that gassy smell to it but you also get that kushness from it too. I think the Cherry Pie in Sunset Sherbet gets dwarfed by everything else which is unfortunate, the only qualities that really follow over is the cake like smell. Overall the smoke is very thick and chesty. I'd recommend smoking this one midday once you've warmed up. Early morning will put you out for the day and "bedtime" joint won't really mean bedtime once smoked. 8/10 purely because I'm not much of a fan of SS anyway.
Lemonlato:
This reminded me of the Sherbet OG, probably because it is basically the same cross too. I'd say this is a bit weaker in strength compared to the Sherbet but it's still defo strong. For whatever reason this one for me was very forgettable. I think it's potentially because it's so similar to the Sherbet that my mind can't quite differ them especially when smoked on the same day. I will however say that I preferred the taste of this more than the Sherbet. Having that lemon taste/smell to it meant it was a lot easier to smoke. Not as strong on the chest but with the same potency as the Sherbet. 7/10
Cheesecake Pie:
I saved this one till last purely because of how amazing it smelt. It literally just smelt like a cheesecake. Definately the strongest smelling out the whole lot that's for certain, and definately my favourite smelling weeds ever. I would have been happy to just leave this in my jar and keep smelling it daily. When ground it's no different if not better. I'd say it smells more like chocolate cheesecake. Grounds out really well and the nugs are average. When smoking you still get that cheesecake taste which is nice. Not so strong when smoking it but it's definately a creeper. This is an easy 10/10 especially with how amazing it smells.
Bubblegum Sherbert:
This was a deceiving one, in many different ways. In terms of the strain, it's exactly what it says on the tin. When you smell even just the nugs, you get a massive whiff of bubblegum. I myself am a fan of bubblegum but I know not a lot of people are. If you're not a fan then you probably wouldn't like it as it really does have a strong scent. When you break it apart only then will you get the sherbet smell. This was probably the most dense out the bunch. Boulder like buds and were really hard to break apart. It was deceiving when it was ground out as it would tickle your nose due to the strong THC scent. You really didn't get that from smelling the nugs. It was again deceiving when smoking it as it was quite harsh and you didn't get much of the bubblegum or sherbet flavour. In terms of strength, it's 100% the strongest out the lot. Doesn't matter what you've smoked before, this wants to take over. If it wasn't for the smoke, this would be an easy 10 however I have to rate a 9/10.
Cookies & Cream:
This was one of the strongest out of the bunch. This was the strongest on the chest too, you really felt this one go down. The taste was incredible however, It's been a while since I've had Cookies & Cream so I can't quite remember what it was like, especially nowadays with all the different types of cookies going around, the original can get drowned. The colour on the bud when ground was an extremely light green, haven't seen weed like this in a while. Was a very slow burner, very good as a night time joint or before bed. The smoke was very thick as you would expect. I think this one would be a difficult one to smoke regularly due to the strength however would be nice as a luxury every now and then. 10/10
Grapefruit Juice:
Probably the most appealing and tasty weeds I've had since Cherry Pie, and that's my all time favourite strain. The buds were glowing lime green with glowing orange hairs too. Dense but also fluffy nugs at the same time. Not dense enough where it feels like a boulder but enough to where it grinds out really well. The smell from this was incredible, even more so when it's ground out. It really does smell like grapefruit and it really comes through on the taste as well. It's not potent enough to where you don't want to smoke another, it makes you want to keep smoking it due to how tasty it is. I know I said the Orange Slushy was #2 of my top strains but I'm afraid it now has to move down to #3. 10/10
Stardawg:
Everyone and their nan knows what Stardawg is. This was no exception. Soon as you open the bag, you can smell that brutal dawg smell. Most people I can imagine have only really ever tried Stardawg from local dealers on the streets and we claim it "dirty dawg". From experience, it's all I've ever had too, this really changed my perspective on Stardawg. You still get the typical Dawg qualities, that gassy smell and the denseness of the nugs. This however is a much smoother smoke. Not as strong on the chest and for once I didn't get a headache which I always do when smoking Dawg. I'm glad I actually go to try what proper Dawg is like, it's a shame it's name has been tarnished over the years. 8/10
Final Thoughts:
Would I class it as high grade? 100%. A lot of these bought me back to the old days of smoking, when I would actually feel it. Many tasty and different types of weed that you can take a shot at 2 of them and at least be happy with 1. As you can tell, I'm not a Sherbet guy so I have more bad to say about those but it's purely a preference thing. Overall the quality of these strains are 10/10 and I wouldn't really downplay any of these. Maybe Stardawg should be in the medium section purely because it's Dawg, but at the same time I do understand why it's there.
Orange Slushy:
I'm a sucker for orange bud so this was 10/10. The nugs were really dense and the tanginess was amazing. Grinds out really well and you can even smell the orange from the smoke coming off the joint.

That is a lot of free weed! I’m just surprised GC didn’t spread it about a bit to get a broader range of reviews/opinions?….just sayin’…
^^^
The reviews don’t tell me much tbh, thick / chesty + 2 listed as most potent.
Will wait on some other reviews I think as not got loads to blow this month and want a tasty terps.

If u wanna feel loved I'm willing to send u sample off the yellow Z I’m currently shifting. It’s nice smoke. 😁
This is a fair point, although last time I sent out free samples to various people to be smoked and reviewed, 80% of them ghosted after receiving.
Hence I would rather stick to one reliable and unbiased person such as Alleyne.

Sure, there is no perfect solution to trying to create a bit of noise about your store 👍
Personally I think including a nug of a different strain with an order is the best way overall. It might not always get a review but will always be appreciated and you don’t pick up much additional cost because you are sending out an order anyway (I’m not saying you don’t already do this!). We all love a Brucie Bonus! 😍

I would agree sweetener in with product is always a treat. You can review of course but for me it’s more the fact that you can then comment in threads and discussions but most importantly. Behind the scenes advise others that you talk to.
I like the intro offers that The Green Team do. They're cheap and there's usually 25 offers available for each strain. Biggas love a bargain so they're usually gone within 24 hours and they'll get a bunch of reviews for a new product.
So did I and still do. One month I did the intro tally and let’s say I could have got more than into lol 😂
You’re right tho especially the expense of some of the higher end ones. For me that’s a lot of coin on something I’ve not tried.

This is a good idea, we will start adding small samples of other strains within the same shelf bracket.
We may also do a few 12x1g sample packs of the new products for a limited time. 👍

I wouldn’t say it’s a fair point. People were happy with my reviews prior to knowing now all of a sudden it’s a problem. If they were “okay” before then how has this changed anything? If people were so happy with my reviews before but now want to wait for others to review (which they won’t because there’s physically no incentive to making a topic review for any user whatsoever), how can you even guarantee the next reviewer or the one after that is doing the exact same shit as me? How can you be certain ANY review on here is legit if this is the case. People don’t see behind the scenes and people don’t know everything. GC has sent stuff to me, GC has sent stuff to other people. Clearly as he said, people didn’t bother which is obviously why no other fucker has done one. If people are getting sent free shit and STILL not incentive to do so, then what will? You only see the reviews that I have put up and not the times where GC has sent stuff (out of his pocket btw) that has had no effect on me, like the gummies. Who has that helped? He’s lost money sending a product intended for a review, the only person who has gained there is me. I’m tired of people acting like the review is their main issue when it’s clearly just saltiness. If you don’t ask you don’t fucking get, most of you will be happy to sit here bitching yet not do a single thing about it. I help GC out with various other things other than just reviews, we both pay each other back with a favour here a favour there. If you don’t like the fact I’m getting sent shit, then ask around. There’s plenty of newer vendors that need this exact same thing. Its been happening and will keep happening for as long as this site is up. People act like it’s a “new” thing when in reality it’s been here from the get go. If you were offered, you would say yes too, don’t bullshit yourself. I still buy products from GC like any normal person when it comes to personal use
Wow, you sound angry…jeez Louise!….
And if the statement “If you were offered , you would say yes too, don’t bullshit yourself”, is aimed at me then how wrong you are. I’ve politely turned down three offers in the last couple of months. Like I say, I’m always delighted to receive a Brucie Bonus having placed an order. Getting a dozen strains just seems OTT to me, and your angry response and sweary language says quite a lot about it.
Has it occurred to you that biggas weren’t responding to your reviews because they weren’t a great read?….less can be more you know😉

Let’s not get heated over nothing here. We all want the same thing.
Can’t please everyone all of the time on the internet, prime example:
Apex wants more details, polly wants less details.
Everyone is different and we all prefer things done our own way but we are all shooting towards the same goal here.

I get angry when I ignore bullshit for weeks then finally reply? No it wasn't directed to you specifically otherwise I would have put your name, I'm not an indirect person. However being as you clearly want it to be let's make it. You deciding to turn offers down is on you. Maybe 12 is OTT, but I'm also not going to turn it down. I'm not controlling GC and what he's doing, if he wants to he can and he can to plenty of other people too. I'm not going to sit here and be upset if he suddenly decided to change person, it's his shop, he can do what he wants. Your comment about the "angry response says a lot" really doesn't say anything. It says that I'm angry... That's it. How it relates to me being sent freebies is plainly stupid...
Your dig at my reviews is also childish as I didn't even mention anything about my reviews I mentioned about other people not making them and me being the only person to be actually bothered to do so. Clap clap you again make a braindead comment. It's even more contradicting when you've commented on literally every review I've done and not said shit then? Now you wanna say something because you felt like I targeted you. Well I've targeted you now so what now? If you didn't like my reviews, why bullshit yourself in the comments of them. Less really is more pollypuff

Look Sweary Mary, it’s like this- you even start your review with a defensive and slightly angry paragraph so you were on the back foot right there. Will many Biggas be sceptical about a review of a dozen freebies claiming to be entirely “unbiased”?- of course they will!…that’s why you came out on the defence.
Yup, GC can throw you the keys to the store if they want to and very good luck to you, well done, matters not a jot. But a little self effacing humour and a light heart of fortune when reviewing would serve you much better than simply going into a foul mouthed rant.
It just reinforces that the whole thing is a bit off. Does it matter in the scheme of things?…nah….

Ultimately an incentivised review is never going to be taken the same way as a review of a product that has been paid for. You get shit weed for free, you bin it and move on. You pay for shit weed and you're out of pocket, and potentially weed, if that was your only budget for that week/month. It's also the reason why the lowest scores on 'incentivised' reviews are 7/10 in general. If you give 1/10s you're not just going to alienate the vendor who sent it, other vendors may wish to not risk the bad press that could come their way. Only reviewing the good products whilst ignoring the bad doesn't really help anyone and it detracts from the credibility of the positive reviews.
I like the reviews on the topics board, it keeps things lively and they give more detail than most reviews on the product page. Alleyne could have not stated anything about getting the buds for free and nobody would be any wiser, so I respect their transparency. People can make their own minds up, but I wouldn't want to see Alleyne or anyone else stop reviewing.

Hey Blazin’….yeah, I agree, I like reviews and Alleyne’s reviews and I don’t really give a toss if product is free or not. My comment about this review not being a “good read” is because it’s hard to read 8 strain reviews together- they just all blur to me. Better to break them up imo.
Transparency is good but you can’t manage Biggas natural scepticism by firing from the hip!🤠💥

Spot on man. Mail head
👏👏👏👏👏
It’s like the reviews left after the purchase. Right off the bat I’m at least taking a point or two off because of the 10/10 not tried it gang. 10/10 with no comment.

You’re right polly I mentioned above but reading the comments and going back and reading. It’s as if the backlash was preempted and defensive.
This is most likely because another vendor we will not name right now, created an alt and called out Alleyne for “receiving free gifts for good reviews” although this was deleted by the cleanup Borg - this is maybe where the confusion is stemming from.
That might be the case but you only know what you know 🤷♂️
The only difference being that it’s stated that it was for free. Which is the best way in my opinion. Then your own judgement can be made.
I just think that it escalated quickly and off point. That might be the reason as you said but if you’re putting topics / views out there free or not. Unfortunately trolls is an evil we all have to bare.
My last point would be that Alleyne was called out for getting free gear for positive reviews.
As I said being free is lower down the list than integrity. Alleyne has stated that they would not post a bad review.
Is that because that if you have nothing to say don’t say anything or don’t bite the hand that feeds you. That’s not directed at Alleyne or yourself just a general thought on reviewing in general

In regards to Alleyne not posting a review if it’s a genuinely negative one, in my case this only happened once and was the Edibles. This is just due to Alleynes own personal tolerance - but they did not even touch him so he saw no point in doing that review.
If Alleyne smoked any of these bud samples and genuinely thought they were a 5/10 or whatever, I would not protest or block the review 👍

Glad you agree on the 5/10 ect but by not posting the review on edibles is defeating the purpose.
For instance if they did not effect him then I would then be informed that not only there Torrance level. Which in turn gives better context to the reviews given and going forward.
There was no need to mention it 🤷♂️ but by doing so has opened Pandora’s box 📦

I've personally offered Pollypuff20 free samples in the past, which they have declined. What they are saying is entirely true.
And GC knows I've got absolutely nothing against him, infact quite the opposite, but I have to defend someone when I know they are telling the truth.
Personally, after the way you conduct yourself when getting even a minor amount of criticism, I wouldn't trust your reviews at all, but that's just my opinion, and we all have one.
Cheers BB

Hehe, as you know I’m not that Saintly, I love to try anything new. I like doing reviews if I’ve got something that might be interesting to say, I just don’t like feeling committed to doing reviews because it was a freebie. I am often amazed by how generous LB vendors are. Take the last Druid harvest- virtually every reviewer is wowed by how overweight their orders were. They must have given away a small fortune in total 🤩😍
I believe you and Polly too.
I think polly even once declined a sample from myself aswell.
Point being, I don’t think Polly is making these points from a “I’m salty why didn’t I get freebies to sample” angle. 👍

I think you're right.
Tempers get flared sometimes when people get criticised, it's only natural human behaviour.
The weed looks great and as always I wish you every success buddy.
Personally, I don't agree with the free sample process, and I'll leave it at that. Your business, your choice.
Like I say, PP is a good Bigga and at this stage, I see them as a good friend so I had to chip in and offer a bit of backup. Not that he needs it 🤣
Much love buddy.
Cheers BB 😊👍🍻

I agree and spoke to a few new sellers regarding free samples.
From my point of view is you need reviews on your page not on the topics which as we all know can be like raiders of the lost ark warehouse.
You need page reviews and numbers on the board.
The gear will do the talking and the topics will be uncompressed by any views on the free issue. Which I said has nothing to do with I agree or disagree.
My point was on the basis of reviews

That’s true.
Thank you.
How would you go about this?
As I said I’ve tried spreading out samples before only to be ghosted when they receive the product, then met with excuses.
Doing cheap sample packs may be the way to go.
We almost sold 10 of those sample packs so hopefully anyone can chime in with their own review of each strain.
Thank you.

I remember when you launched you did 4g samples of 2g of each strain you had. I think I was one of the first to grab one as they were great value for
money. I think that sort of thing is perfect.
Whilst it doesn’t guarantee reviews, most biggas who get a deal like this will leave a review as that’s the main point of these sort of deals.

We're not reinventing the wheel buddy.
Offer cheap sample packs, anonymously then get the reviews as normal. It's a tried and tested method. I did it 1200+ days ago.
And I'm still raving👵🤣 (maybe not I'm old)

Where’s my free stuff mate!! 😂😂
And Polly, you can always send those offers to me and Daz 🤣
Didn’t mean to cause any offence to reviews, just want to know more about flavours etc.
Hopefully some of those small packs bring in some tasty write ups so we can all get the best for our preferences.
I await eagerly people!!!!

Now reading though the comments I get the impression you’re trying to justify it to yourself rather than the people commenting.
As you say if you never said anything no one would be any wiser but fair play as I said but that as you know comes with his own issues.
If you put it out there then I’m all for healthy debate but coming out swinging and defending GC.
GC has done nothing other venders do 🤷♂️ so have you made this into the main focus of it now and not the review.

The freebies for review is no drama for me and is the way the world works.
I whinged cos the primo uk buds have less details than the smalls, was looking for some depth on terps and inhale / exhales etc. 😂
Appreciate the extra effort that goes into proper write ups mate so totally understand, doing 7 or so in a weekend is a killer at times around life and wanting to chill 😂
1g samplers are good if priced ok too.
And I always say, it’s it a good one, someone will feel obliged to write it up I find on here.
See many first reviewers enlighten me on a tasty one before 🤜❤️

If Alleyne were to do a full write up of all 12 products, it would take 10 days to post them all individually (borgs would see it as spam)
Hence he has done 8 in one post of the high grade, the low grade SSH as one post, the medium grade wedding pie and amnesia haze as one post and the wedding cake Pop as one post.
I’m sure if you have any specific questions on the 8 high grade strains, Alleyne will more than happily respond.

I meant it’s a fair point in regards to it being better if more than one person reviewed it for a wider opinion on the products.
I do agree that some people seem a bit salty over this while sending samples for free in return for an honest review.
If I were to stop doing that, there would be next to nothing in terms of reviews and people wouldn’t know which products to go for based on their own personal preferences.
At the end of the day, who I send free smoke to is my business, if I want Alleyne to smoke for free for the rest of his life then that’s up to me.
I also don’t see any problem with sending samples for reviews - if it was a problem then the admins would have stepped in by now.
Another bonus to having one person review it all is that the experiment is “controlled” let’s say. They can compare to other products and people will start to get an idea on this persons expectations/standards when it comes to bud and scoring it.

The problem here for me is that I believe JediReview's got banned for doing the exact same thing.
If this is within LB guidelines then Jedi should be unbanned and if not Alleyne should be banned too.
Of course we will never get a straight forward answer from the LB team but all in all seems a little inconsistent.
It all comes down to how LB interpret the meaning of "Incentivized Post's".
Great review nonetheless, I do agree with Polly tho. Would've been better off posting them separately.

Nice reviews.
I think as long as you're honest about whether the bud was bought by you or sent specifically for a review then that's fair enough. People can make their own minds up, I appreciate the transparency.

As I said so do I -2 points lol 😂
Joking I could not give two fucks if it’s free or not. It would be far better to know what the basis of the review was marked rather than if it was free or not.

Hi Alleyne
I seen your review first thing this morning and I wish I had commented then before the handbags & gladrags
Without taking any of the comments into consideration and this being the first review that I have read from you. I have subsequently went back to look at the others.
I appreciate anyone who takes the time to review products.
Some of these points are general points but points that I have been talking to others about reviews in general.
When reading reviews it’s hard as you don’t know what the reviewer has set the bench mark as.
I tend to review by listing description bs product
I know others that do it differently.
I regards to the free gear for reviews debate. I have said this before in previous threads.
Fair play to anyone that get free weed and you have been honest about it.
as a reader I can now take that into consideration when reading your reviews.
One point that you made in your opening statement that I did pick up on was that you never did a review on something else that was sent because you did not want to write a negative review. Kind of defy the purpose.
By readers seeing both hood and bad reviews then they get a sense of your tastes and can then act or debate your review.
Now when I see a review from yourself I now know that without reading it. It’s going to have a positive outcome. It might have some negative comments but overall it’s going to be positive.

If I were to mention it was free which this time I did, no other review has been different on my page except then one from TGT, then people will complain. If I were to mention it was bought when it wasn't, people would complain. I've been accused of falsifying reviews prior to even mentioning freebies were sent. My point being is that people complain regardless. I simply mentioned it today to put it at rest in terms of people assuming all reviews are biased. Due to the backlash, I decided to not do the remaining reviews today and just wanted to ignore all messages. Ironically, one of those reviews was actually of a strain which I thought was mediocre. If I had listed that one first, then I guarantee things would have planned out differently. Now I don't even want to post it because again, people will assume I'm just now doing it for the sake of it.
Was I harsh to snap back earlier? Yes entirely, and I will apologise to polly personally. But at the end of the day, sometimes a debate isn't a bad thing. We all learnt a few things and hopefully can clear the air. I just know I shouldn't have started it the way I did.
In regards to the edibles. I will still stand by NOT doing the review. It is genuinely a tolerance issue. I have tried numerous different types of edibles over the years, purposely hunting for the strongest ones and they have never touched me. In my eyes, writing a review for a product that was never going to work to begin with doesn't deserve to have a bad first impression from me. GC purely sent them because he thought I'd be a good candidate and would have a lot to say IF they did work. I didn't guarantee they would work PRIOR to him sending. If I were to do a review I wouldn't even know what to say? I just don't justify doing a negative review on something that isn't actually negative. I gave them away in the end to friends and all of them felt some sort of effect however again, I would not be able to base a review on someone else's opinion, otherwise that's no different that just making a fake one.
In terms of previous reviews and the details written. I've done them like this the whole time. Any comments I've had have been positive and with no criticism (without mentioning names, many are literally here right now which is ironic), yet suddenly I've mentioned freebie and everyone's tone of voice has changed. You can understand why I feel a lot of people are contradictive. All my reviews have been written, in what I thought was sufficient detail. Apparently now this is not the case. If I were to do separate reviews on each and every strain, I'd again have people complain about the amount of reviews and referral links and potentially actually being shadow banned from LB anyway. So what do you guys actually want? This isn't an arsey question this is genuine. Because at the moment, it still feels like everyone is up in the air with what's actually pissing them off. If it's simply because of the fact that freebies are being sent and the review cannot be trusted then I would rather just not do them at all because what's the point. Like I've said multiple times, I genuinely do the reviews so people can get an insight before buying as me personally think the normal reviews are bold and all over the place. I like to have something to look at where someone's detailed everything from the smoke to how it grinds etc. This isn't the case, people don't do them. Once I started doing them for GC. I actually enjoyed it and did the one from TGT that I bought the previous month. No different from any other of my reviews. I don't have any other reviews from other vendors since because guess what, I actually buy from GC.

Lots of words there, i feel like you're trying to excuse yourself.
I'll keep my (albeit unimportant) position clear...
I don't trust reviews based upon free samples.
That's it. No need to argue about it. We all have our opinions. 😊
Cheers BB 😊👍🍻

I have no reason to make excuses over something that doesn't effect me. This also wasn't an argumentative comment, if you're allowed to have your opinion then I can also reply to them with my own opinion. It was also a reply to Dazzler so sorry you go caught up in it
Hi Alleyne,
Thanks for the response and appreciate it.
I think you did the right thing mentioning that this was a gift for you to review. As I said previously the reader can make their own mind up.
I feel that the review from the start was overshadowed by the fact that you felt the need to justify the manner you obtained the goods and not defend the reviews. Which is the whole point of the topic.
Goods for positive reviews are nothing new and does play a part in how readers perceive the review but that's the readers decision.
You are also right in the fact that you are never going to please everyone. What I will say is that too much time has been spent by yourself justifying the process of how you obtained it rather than defending the review that took the time an effort to post.
I don't agree with the statement that "people assume all reviews are biased" . I would say that 99% of the reviews are positive and I think that a big part of that is if you have nothing nice to say!
"Ironically, one of those reviews was actually of a strain which I thought was mediocre" If this is the case why was this not included in the original review? If you are trying to defend previous reviews and your reviews being un bias. I would have definitely made sure that this was included to prove your point.
You have said it yourself. I think your right the horse unfortunately has bolted on that defence.
Like others have said it's in our nature to defend anything we put out there. By doing so you have to deal with what comes next, good or bad. (nature of the beast) and this not just gear on LB.
Fair play for holding up your hands and reflecting on how you handled the situation.
I disagree with the following statements as this information and the other reviews give context
In regards to the edibles. I will still stand by NOT doing the review. It is genuinely a tolerance issue. I have tried numerous different types of edibles over the years, purposely hunting for the strongest ones and they have never touched me.
I just don't justify doing a negative review on something that isn't actually negative. I gave them away in the end to friends and all of them felt some sort of effect however again, I would not be able to base a review on someone else's opinion, otherwise that's no different that just making a fake one.
Just say that, it's the truth. By not saying it and mentioning that you just never did it, is reinforcing the bias argument. I i read that and you said the weed was strong than I can then judge if your 10 is a Dazzler 7 ect ect
Again just my opinion more time has been spent justifying how you got it rather than what the gear is like.
Thanks for the response and appreciate it.
I think you did the right thing mentioning that this was a gift for you to review. As I said previously the reader can make their own mind up.
I feel that the review from the start was overshadowed by the fact that you felt the need to justify the manner you obtained the goods and not defend the reviews. Which is the whole point of the topic.
Goods for positive reviews are nothing new and does play a part in how readers perceive the review but that's the readers decision.
You are also right in the fact that you are never going to please everyone. What I will say is that too much time has been spent by yourself justifying the process of how you obtained it rather than defending the review that took the time an effort to post.
I don't agree with the statement that "people assume all reviews are biased" . I would say that 99% of the reviews are positive and I think that a big part of that is if you have nothing nice to say!
"Ironically, one of those reviews was actually of a strain which I thought was mediocre" If this is the case why was this not included in the original review? If you are trying to defend previous reviews and your reviews being un bias. I would have definitely made sure that this was included to prove your point.
You have said it yourself. I think your right the horse unfortunately has bolted on that defence.

Because it’s on a different listing this is my point. People are quick to jump to conclusions without even fully understanding what’s going on. Even now I’m still confused about what people are actually annoyed about. Because people can personally message me and say one thing or comment on a review with open arms yet are completely contradicting themselves on this post. How can I not purely comment on the freebie fact when that’s what it seems people are only caring about. Soon as I comment on that people then do a switcharoo again and say it’s the review? It just seems a lot of people have an issue with saying what their actual problem with and instead rather tip toe around it. Just say it… which is why I appreciate your long replies as you are actually explaining why/how you feel the way you are. Other people are not doing this and just changing their opinion once someone mentions it. I made a small comment regarding it was free at the start of the post to put to bed everyone that has been asking for god knows how long as it was getting on my nerves. I have ignored/not replied to ANY comment since today. Of course I’m now going to start justifying it, as I’ve been ignoring it for weeks, yet now I’m actually mentioning it for my mental and to get people off my back about it and now it’s a case of that’s my only focus? *sigh*
In regards to review in general. I think it 99% of the reviews are positive (which they are going to be anyway as I’ve mentioned incentive many times) then topic reviews just shouldn’t be allowed at all in my opinion. If most people feel they are going to be a positive review purely because some sort of link through the vendor then the accuracy of ANY topic review if false right from the get go. If people genuinely have this mind set of not knowing if it was a free purchase or not, and with some mentioning that they will not trust any review that’s been sent as a freebie, then why do you even trust any of them at all, that doesn’t make any sense to me. If you were told that 90% of a restaurants 5 star reviews were due to all the reviewers knowing the owner, would you really trust all those 5 stars? Why is this so different here.
That’s fair enough, and I see your point but I personally still would not do that, that’s just me. I also did mention numerous times down to tolerance but I guess people still ignored that part and assumed I didn’t do it because they didn’t work… No, like I said, I have my reasonings for many things, and people are always quick to jump to assume shit. By that point it’s too late because their assumptions are at the forefront of their mind and anything prior to that is bs. It’s how humans will and always work. I also wouldn’t really say that’s how tolerance works. A 10 for me could be a 7 for you but another 7 for me could be a 10 for you. Tolerance is very specific and us both smoking the same strain can lead to very different opinions. I personally would take someone’s strength level as a pinch of salt but if I were to not mention it then people will just complain i’m not detailed enough anyway

You’ve really tied yourself in knots mate. Yet you still claim not to see what Biggas are annoyed about. Let me try and help-
Go back to my original comment at the top of the page which simply states that that is a “lot of free weed” (I’ve never seen anything like it). GC agrees it’s a fair point and in you come fists flying. Let’s look at some choice quotes:
“No other fucker has done one…”
“It’s clearly just saltiness”…
“If you don’t ask you don’t fucking get…”
“You are happy to sit here bitching…”
“You don’t like the fact that I am getting sent shit…”
“If you were offered you would say yes don’t bullshit yourself…”
“You clearly want to make it about you so let’s make it…”
“You again make a brain dead comment…”
“I’ve targeted you now so what now?…”
“Why bullshit yourself?…”
That level of immediate anger and aggression says you were wound up and raring to go. And the reason for that is that getting a dozen free samples in one go, displaying them on a table and trying to review them altogether is generally nuts, and perhaps you know it.
Like I said- does it matter in the scheme of things?- no, but for crying out loud try and approach it in little light hearted way. Try and remember that LB has a policy (also nuts) against ‘incentivised posts’ so don’t make it so bloody obvious.
Reviews can be good, bad, indifferent- but they should always be fun. It’s a fun subject!
There will always be a degree of scepticism about reviews of free product. If that hurts, don’t do them. Review the stuff you buy…
To sum up- the Druids sent me some samples of their early harvest. I was blown away, and said “do you want me to review them?”. They said “No, we want you to enjoy them”. Boom!😍😍

Thank you very much Alleyne for the reviews. After reading your reviews, which for me, I found informative and it told me exactly what I needed to know, I placed an order and GC advised accordingly too when I was placing the order.
So if the purpose of a review is to impart impartial advice and GC provides you with these samples (I don't care if he did, I am not naive, I know how to read Amazon reviews! 😊) and I read your reviews glean the information I think are most important for me, and after that I place an order with GC, I think we all have won and all the sales objectives have been met!! 😊
Another important thing to remember is we all have the right to disagree with a review or update a review or even write a review from scratch, after we have sampled the works of course! Works both ways! If I disagree with something, don't worry I will say it and move on!
Thank you for reading, my first time posting family but loving this site!
Time for a fat one I think. Have a great evening. Summer has finally started at last! Lol!

Thanks for reviewing , looking forward to my cheesecake pie and bubblegum sherbert. Hoping they're as good as the Cali shake which I'm still blazing daily.
Brilliant 👏 and thanks.
The cookies and cream. When you say, it was the strongest on the chest, you mean in a good way or..?
The cookies and cream. When you say, it was the strongest on the chest, you mean in a good way or..?
I guess it depends on your preference. I myself prefer to feel a hit when it's going down so for me personally, I preferred that stronger hit. Some people may not like the tickle it gives you and want a smoother inhale so it all comes down to preference.
Thanks again. Loving the sound of the Cheesecake Pie and Grapefruit Juice. Hopefully get to try them soon after the Cookies and Cream.
Those 2 were my favourite out the bunch. The Cheesecake was really nice to smell out the bag, made me not wanna smoke it. The Grapefruit was my all round favourite. So clean and the bright green look to it just made it look even more appealing. I prefer the fruity buds over cake like ones

Wedding Cake UK Pop Review!

Wedding Cake UK Pop Review!
This will be the only detailed review on all of these new strains. If I were to do detailed reviews on all the other listings, Little Biggy might shit itself😂
Packaging:
Just as good as usual. Fairly packed and after ordering so many times, I'm happy to say GC has the best packaging I've had from anyone on here.
Appeal:
Very small but dense popcorn nugs, as it says on the tin. You'll notice the shine from the buds and they are riddled with THC. Just from looking at the buds alone, you can tell it has that Wedding Cake look to them.
Smell:
If you were to order a big amount, I can imagine it will smell more like shake due to the sheer quantity and the fact it is taken from a shake batch. When ground however, you can really tell it's Wedding Cake. The smell goes right up your nose and that THC really comes alive.
Taste/Smoke:
Just like normal Wedding Cake. This is where the massive amount of THC hits you. Very strong when smoking it and you can definately feel the kick of it going down. Has that cake like texture to the smoke to add to the thickness and overall just feels very strong. Although I did think it was high in strength, it was very easy to just smoke it daily as the high was actually quite mellow. Definately put me down and made me want to relax but not enough to where I felt brain fuzzed.
Final Thoughts:
I actually really enjoyed this. If you've had the UK shake from GC then it will feel familiar to the buds you may have found in there however I'd say a bit better quality nugs and a lot stronger overall. I'd give this an 9/10!

Great review! I've got an Oz of this one it's way too and couldn't be more excited! This will be my first time trying Wedding Cake
Awesome review dude, and it sounds excellent. I also have an oz of this on the way. Is that enough though...?
Great review, thanks for taking the time. I've got some of this on the way and that review has whet my appetite.
Great review mate! Appreciate the effort you've made and yes,after wetting my appetite....Im gonna order some! Cheers! :)

I’m done with Royal Mail….

I’m done with Royal Mail….
Constant orders taking minimum 7 days to be delivered and even that’s asking a lot yet everyone else is confident they are receiving shit within 1-2 days… This isn’t just deliveries but with general post too, days without shit through the letter box. Can someone please confirm if they have the same issues because I’m genuinely losing my mind. It’s borderline still feeling like they are on strike for me because they don’t do shit. I’ve used LB for so long but RM is making me chose against it and I refuse to pay the ridiculous prices some of these vendors have for NDD just for it to still not be delivered. So many different people complain about NDD not actually being NDD yet vendors still put a $10+ price tag on it like it’s a good bargain….
guess it depends where you live, small areas less hectic so things are easier to run smoothly, populated areas like london are most likely still chaos from all the stikes/drama that's been going on.
If you have tracked, and its at your post office sometimes it can sit there for a few days as noone to deliver so you can just go pick it up done that a few times

royal mail do very well considering the shit they get one some one can't manage their meds well or order early. 10 is the cost of postage. special delivery - next day delivery. it does not mean it will be posted same day n land same day. Just as soon as it's been packed and out. It's very common on loads of online legit shops to. i bet if ppl stopped crying and msging. the vendors would be able to get it out faster.
I'm in Ireland man but I've one sitting in post office in UK since Monday but I believe they not sending abroad, I feel your pain hopefully ya get sorted soon 👍
Try getting it sent to your local sorting office my friend does that because the post for her is once a week if she’s lucky(not even that rural!) she never has issues with the sorting office just ask Royal Mail to redirect ur mail for you

Orange Kush Cali Mids Review

Orange Kush Cali Mids Review
Whatsup biggas! Thought I'd do a review on this one as I really enjoyed it at the time. It's been a month since I actually bought and smoked it and it's still one to remember. Not much people do reviews for TGT so I decided to do one and hopefully more people will try out their mids!
Check it out here:
https://littlebiggy.com/link/5QeQmm
Packaging/Delivery:
Packaging is always fine from TGT. Vendor sticks the external packaging to the box on the inside to ensure it doesn't come apart or at the very least, doesn't look war torn when delivered. My only issue with TGT is that for whatever reason a lot of packages I've ordered from them have gone missing. I'm unsure if this is maybe a distance thing from myself and TGT but I rarely have issues with other vendors yet I think most times I've ordered from here, I have to chase up. Hopefully others can confirm if it's just me or not...
Appeal:
What you would expect from mids. Has that fluffy denseness to it but not as firm as usual cali buds. This is usual from most mids. You can however tell it's orange kush as there were a lot of orange hairs and just had a tangy smell to it too.
Smell:
Tricky one to put across in words. If you've ordered mids off TGT before then you will probably know what I mean. It has a very distinctive smell however I wouldn't necessarily say it's pure orange, just more of a tange.
Taste:
From here it's good I promise. I think a common misconception with mids is that it's the same as normal cali except it's slightly weaker whereas this is usually not the case. Lows or mids are usually classed as this due to a poor grow. Either the crop just failed or smaller issues like lighting caused it to grow insufficiently. This being said, it still tastes as it should. Now you really taste the orange terps and get that thickness from the kush too. The taste of this weed is what made me love it so much. You can defo tell it's just gone wrong somewhere down the line in the growing process, because smoking it is very similar to the proper thing.
Smoke:
Stronger than I was anticipating however kush can sometimes have that surprising affect on you, especially when you haven't had it in a while. Smokes very clean and again, that orange goodness is just so sweet (no not sour). The taste however is quite strong so if you're not a fan of fruity bud, then it may not be for you. In terms of how it grinds, actually really nice. A lot of mids tend to grind out quite poorly due to the nugs. I suspected this to be the same however it actually ground out to what I would expect. There's nothing worse than putting in loads of big nugs in your grinder and you barely get a joint, this is not the case.
Final Thoughts:
I've had a few mids from TGT now, and this was by far my favourite. Unfortunately, due to most of my orders getting lost, I can't quite appreciate them the same way when they eventually arrive. If we factor in the price with what you are getting, then this is perfect. It's just very hard for me to keep coming back and using consistently when I can't guarantee it's even going to arrive. It's the only thing that let's TGT down. Everything else is spot on. If you are intrigued but worried about the delivery, don't worry TGT is very good with comms, it's not a case of needing to dispute if it does come to it. My case also does not rest for everyone else too, I could be one of the unlucky ones. It would be good to know how your delivery goes with TGT too. I would also recommend just checking out TGT in general, probably the most stocked vendor on here and is always switching up and changing stock. It's impossible to get bored with them. I will be having a hash review coming for them in the future!
Any questions feel free to ask them below!

Agreed, their stealth is some of the best on LB. Hopefully it's not a light-fingered postie that is responsible.
Another nice review Alleyne.

Thai Sensimilla Weed Review!
by

Thai Sensimilla Weed Review!
So I thought I'd do a review on this as I feel most people are just as confused as me in terms of Thai weed in general and hopefully it can give people a better understanding and opt people into trying this out.
Find it here:
https://littlebiggy.com/link/pdhC3x
Packaging:
Just as good as usual. The box itself was open when arrived however due to the vac sealing, there was no leakage in smell. Package seemed like it's been through rough times so it's more of a RM issue. Tracking also told me it sat in a mail office for a day too, further confirming a RM issue.
Appeal:
This will really depend on what your preference is. The picture however does most of the explaining. Has a very "blocky" look to it and a decent amount of stems however also a lot of colour which will bring me onto the taste and smell later.
Smell:
Honestly, smells very similar to shake. I seen someone reviewed it stating "woody and fruity" and although it sounded weird when I read it, they are also spot on. Very wood like smell however there's a hint of mixed berries in there too. I would say at first sniff, you probably won't like it but it will grow on you.
Taste:
I was not expecting this. The fruitiness really shines when you are smoking. I won't continue to talk about ash colour in these reviews anymore as I don't like it myself however for the last time, not pure white but also not dark either. The fruitiness this gives though reminds me of a pine like taste. Almost like a mellow diesel and in comparison to the appeal and smell, the taste really does surprise you.
Smoke:
Super clean considering. It may not look clean at first glance but smoking it really does feel so. It surprised me with the amount of THC when breaking it apart to grind, can feel it on your fingertips. The yield you get from grinding it due to the texture is also really nice, so much to the fact that I may convert to smoking this over the shake as I feel I can double the length on how long an ounce would last.
Final Thoughts:
I was always very confused on why Thai is so popular. It always looked a bit weird, smelt odd and didn't exactly seem strong. Whilst although some of it may be true, I now understand that if you are on a budget and still want to feel like you are smoking actual "weed" rather than shake then it's a perfect alternative. I've been buying shake for a very long time now off multiple different vendors, after a while it gets quite boring. You forget what proper weed feels like, you forget how proper weed grinds and the THC level, I would say Thai is the closest you can get to having those exact same properties, but still keeping to a budget.
Feel free to ask me any questions below!!

I've been buying shake for a very long time now off multiple different vendors, after a while it gets quite boring. You forget what proper weed feels like, you forget how proper weed grinds and the THC level, I would say Thai is the closest you can get to having those exact same properties, but still keeping to a budget.
Feel free to ask me any questions below!!
Thanks for taking the time to write this up. For a while Thai was all I could get so I have smoked more than my fair share.
I always found it to be quite a mellow smoke, perfect for the daytime. What sort of buzz does this give, is it more indica or sativa?

Honestly I'd say it's a pretty even mix but defo a indica dominant. Very dependant on time of day. First one of the day uplifted me and made me want to do stuff. One in the afternoon was completely the opposite😂😂
I’m was the same as you and loved the buzz of it.

Last question? I’m assuming that this was unseeded? As I would expect. Not like string ? Sorry if it’s a stupid question 🙋♂️

Yes it was unseeded. Not the typical string thai weed, I haven’t tried that type of thai either
Thanks for that.
I used to love Thai back in the day. A nice break from all the heavy stuff back in the day.
Will be taking a look now

Cheers for that man. Was asking about it on another thread.
So as it should 👌 and others have said similar.
Did you smoke or vape it?

Building a stable coin alternative for LB payments.
Blockhead is building a new, 0 trust payment processor for little biggy. We will facilitate usd coin payments on the Solana blockchain, the fastest and lowest cost network in crypto.
We've listed some opportunities for devs and would love some coding biggaz to have a look.

That's music to my ears because the last 30 days have been a joke regarding BTC network fees and there seems to be no sign of a let up
What are you using to be able to select the timing? Anyone that has the option should just be using the flexible option and not worrying about it... Not everyone has the option
Not currently mate. It's pay the maximum or it won't get through at the moment. It was over 300 sat/vB for entry to the block just before confirmation yesterday (19/11), and if you weren't paying the maximum then that 1 hour quickly turns into 24 hours or more as people pay higher and higher fees, and the 24 hour one never gets confirmed.
I got quite lucky. Tbh I find fees change really randomly. $70 could be $20 fee and $71.50 is a $5. Worth a play anyway.
It's risky, I've seen multiple cases when the 0 fee flexible payment still hasn't cleared after 8 weeks.. you probably might start worrying then! Besides vendors have cut off times etc & with my THC appetite I can just about wait 24hrs for NDD as it is 😂

Trouble with coinjar
Hey Biggas. I’ve used coinjar since finding little biggy a few years back and have never had any issues. I haven’t used LB for a few months and now I need to stick up I’m having issues. What I want to buy cost £34 and I have £55 if bitcoin in my account. Every time I try to send it I get a message saying insufficient funds due to network fees but they’ve never been anything like £20 before. I’ve messaged coinjar, but can anyone shed any light?
Network fees same everywhere mate taking peoples eyes out cheaper to go to your local atm unfortunately 🙁
