Pineapple Whip - Shmu the Canna Prophet house curation
Pineapple Whip has been showing up on a few menus in the DC area over the last six months or so, and since the people absolutely freak over this strain, I never got to try it. Finally, it’s my turn in the queue and immediately I can see why everyone has been snagging this up expeditiously. The nugs are not the best eye appeal, but you can immediately see how resinous it is.
Chem D - Skunkfoot Farms
I’ve gone on record many times saying Chem D is my favorite of the Chemdog line, and it’s batches like this from Skunkfoot that confirm my bias time and time again. A lot of folks might pass up Chem D and its siblings because the whole offering is pretty one note, but I think a lot of folks forget that Chem D is the original one note genetic and in my opinion it does that trope best.
Mumbo Zauce - Heads of State
This is a pretty peculiar review because I’m covering a product from my own grow, but I put a poll on Instagram asking if I should cover my own flowers, and got an overwhelmingly positive response, so I decided to indulge and give it a write up. For those who’ve missed my posting flurry about this strain over the last few months, Mumbo Zauce is a strain I bred by crossing a selection of Highway Runtz, a “white Runtz” bagseed, with pollen from a Gonzo male, Gonzo being GMO x OZK from Bay Area Seed Co.
Z Pie - Gallo Grown x Hushle
If you haven’t been living under a rock for the past two years you’ve probably seen Raw Genetics’ Z Pie on many menus and probably some podiums. Smokey Bodega’s version won gold in the 2024 Billy Awards, and it’s been on the Don Merfos, Last Frontier and Wildflower Cannabis lineups. But Gallo Grown’s version is on a whole other level. To the uninitiated, this flavor is very similar to a lot of other candies, but with a bit more kerosene and lime.
Runtz - Funk House Farm
If you’ve been reading my reviews for a while, since back in the Gentleman Toker days, you know I’ve smoked a LOT of Runtz. Maybe too much Runtz. So it’s safe to say that when a good Runtz passes by my docket, I know what’s up, and lo and behold, this is that guy.
Pineapple Maraschino - Misty’s Melts
It’s no secret I’ve been enjoying any Misty’s Melts flavors I can get my hands on, and I don’t think any have surpassed my expectations as much as Pineapple Maraschino. While I have my speculations on what the hybrid might be, the parentage is unknown, and this is now the second time in the last year Flavor Farming has absolutely wowed me with bagseed genetics, and this is one you really have to taste to understand fully.
Apples & Bananas x Zoap - Topshelf Network
Apple Banana Zoap was originally released as seeds by LIT Farms. In 2025, both of these genetics are out of vogue, but Top Shelf Network certainly found a great selection of this hybrid for their operation. It’s got a bit of the Flintstones’ vitamin terp you’re used to from Apples & Bananas but there’s also a good bit of Tide Pod and sherb bite in the flavor as well.
Cranberry Z - Michelin Terps
Trying award winning hash is always a pleasure, but trying award winning jam diamonds from a brand from Massachusetts, the debut for that state in any of my reviews, has got to be one of the biggest ESPN stat moments I’m publishing yet. Another one from the ADHDDEAD 420 celebrations, Cranberry Z is one that I’ve tried in hyrids a couple of times but this I think is also the first time I’ve tried it on its own.
G.R.E.A.M. - Shmu the Canna Prophet house curation
G.R.E.A.M. is a hybrid of Lil Valley OG and the aforementioned WUG, with the OG seemingly a cut of OG from Washington. It’s similar to things like TK41 or Gushers in that it’s candy over confectionary gas in the aroma and flavor. The nugs are large and dense and the sample came solidly fresh, which translates well to a smooth smoking experience.
Z From the Vault - Helios Hash x ADHDDEAD
ADHDDEAD usually tees up some hype collaborations for his events, but maybe the most impressive one to date both in spectacle and quality is Z From the Vault with Helios Hash. What’s outside the jar from Justin Lovato and myself is barely a preview of how sick the rosin on the inside is
207 Headband - Best Friend Farms
207 Headband by Best Friend Farms has been something of a Maine legend the last couple years, and for whatever reason it’s just completely eluded my headstash. Hash on the Hudson heard my cries for heat and hooked it up with this sample, and it was totally worth the wait.
Chem 91 x TK - Shmu the Canna Prophet house curation
Chem 91 x TK is something gas lovers will salivate over while the odor burns in the nostrils, and the pungency is directly correlated with the outright potency. Even smaller doses of this cultivar is enough for a noticeable head change but regular doses are bound to leave even serious smokers heavy eyed and brain-fried.
Cherry Pomelo - Nebula Gardenz
If this sample is a prime example of the rest of their lineup, then we have a serious situation. Cherry Pomelo seems to be a cut of Cherry Biscotti, which if I remember correctly is LCG x Biscotti, and boy does this stuff stink.
Moonbow - Shmu the Canna Prophet house curation
One major complaint a lot of folks have about original Z is that it doesn’t really have a lot of power and that is clearly not the case with this Moonbow. The potency is punishing and much more sedative than the average Zkittlez. It’s no secret I’m a bonafide Z lover, but generally I’ve found it tough to find affordable Z hybrids, and this checks a lot of those boxes
Açaí Berry Gelato 49 - Shmu the Canna Prophet house curation
If you’re familiar with the story of Gelato, you remember that there are about six cuts of them floating around. 33 and 41 are the most popular today, but the others are still unique and interesting in their own rite. Açaí Berry Gelato is the #49 cut, and it’s certainly earned its name. Of all the original cuts, it’s probably the least gassy but definitely the most crushed berry forward and flavor coating fruity.
Gas Face - Shmu the Canna Prophet house curation
You may be reading this and thinking “dang there have been a lot of Shmu menu items on review lately” but the reason for that is because value for money especially at the oz rate, the listings are super competitive and there’s a great variety. Gas Face is a great example of this. The nugs presented are massive and swollen just the way I appreciate, but what really got me is the flavor.
Head Hunter - New Horizons
It’s on record somewhere on this site that I’m a big fan of Gush Mints, probably more than the original Gushers at this point. In general, Purple City tend to be reliably enjoyable for me, so naturally seeing Legend OG x Gush Mints from Head Hunter, I had to try it off Shmu’s menu. Lucky for me this surpassed my expectations.
Tropaya - Flavor Farming
The flavor is much more “trop” than “paya,” which personally I prefer but others might prefer more sharp funk off the nose. Like everything else off Shmu’s selection of Flavor Farming samples, this stuff smokes smooth and clean, which is appreciate for rosin at this price point. The hallmark of this sample though is the effects which are super slumpy and full bodied.
Struckleburst - Upward Organics
I’ve only gotten to try Upward Organics a few times, but every time I’ve been thoroughly impressed with the experience and specifically the flavor. The smoothness has been great, the luster is incredible and it’s safe to say they’re in the upper echelon of sungrown producers on the east coast
Acapulco Gold - Dungeon Valley Farm
Let’s not beat around the bush here, Dungeon Valley’s Acapulco Gold is not the hue you’d expect from very good rosin, but I want to ask readers to suspend their disbelief to the level of the plot of basically any film where Dolph Lundgren is cast. Immediately when you open the jar, you’re met with stinky lime rinds, allspice and pine in a way that keeps up with today’s bleeding edge hash genetics.
