Don’t Be a High TAChole.
Hope you all enjoyed the last blog post; this one has a different feel to it.
Massachusetts customers, as a whole, are known to be after strains with high TAC. We just wanted to let you know that a high TAC does not always mean a better high. I’d like to do a shoutout to one of our cultivators, Garden Remedies. Out of Newton, their Deadhead OG (barely testing over 20%) is by far one of the "dopest dope I have ever smoked." Leafly described it as a physically stimulating but mentally relaxing. I took that as you will want to be productive after smoking but will be dumb as sh*t doing it.
Likewise for cartridges, the pure distillate cartridges are amazing for getting you stoned but sometimes that is not always the desired outcome. Recently, I have been trying my hand at the full-spectrum cartridges. Full-spectrums maintain the entire profile of the cannabis plant. They contain a variety of cannabinoids, including THC, THCa, CBD, CBDa, CBG, and CBN, as well as terpenes and other compounds such as flavonoids, proteins, phenols, sterols, and esters (yes that came from Leafly). There is so much more to the cannabis plant than just THC.
Here, at Garden Wonders, we want to know why you are using the product. It will help us recommend the right products for you. Sometimes the high TAC is the way to go, sometimes a nice mellow 14% sativa is the perfect high at the end of the day. Perfect to not make you overly tired and pass out but might help you do some long overdue chores or read a chapter from the book you are reading. Believe me, I like to have several different strains on me and with varying effects. I have them all labeled with their profiles so I can always be in the right mindset depending on my intentions. Try the Blood Orange from In Good Health, roughly 13% but it has an amazing flavor profile, you will enjoy the smoke, I guarantee it.
One example that I like to refer to is when I had a high testing flower, 29.4%. We had one elderly customer come back to us claiming that the weed was moldy. Our assumption on why he felt this way was because he was not used to the very high testing flower but came in because he wanted "the biggest bang for his buck". Sometimes it can be too much, and some adverse effects could happen.
All we are asking is to walk into our store with an OPEN MIND, the highest testing cannabis is rarely the best. You may be pleasantly surprised and find a different reason/way to enjoy cannabis.
Last but not least, on Saturday, June 26th there will be a Jeep Life Event held on the property! There are plans to have several food trucks lined up, a beer garden sponsored by a couple of local breweries, as well as all of our cultivators. Oh... and when we say Jeep Life... there should be a few HUNDRED Jeeps here, all tricked out with all the bells and whistles. It should be one amazing event.
We hope to see everyone here over the next month and especially at the event!
Thank you all.
