Planet X OG | Marijuana Review

Planet-X-13First Impressions: Planet X OG

The Planet X OG is a great Indica. The first thing you notice when introduced to this bud is the strong aroma. Like being introduced to that friend of a friend who’s culture isn’t as fond of bathing as ours is… There is no hiding this fragrance. It has a strong Skunk scent with some piney overtones, and there is no hiding this.

(A tip from an old guy: Don’t take this on the bus. We can smell it, and we do know what it is.)

The Bud

The Planet X OG Has a beautiful, medium sized bud. It is a rich forest green teaming with crystals and abundant in dark, earthy red hairs. The Planet X OG is dense and a bit sticky, but still a bit spongy.

Planet-X-18The bud broke up pretty nicely in the grinder. A few pieces did get stuck which inevitably led to me scraping them out with a resin coated poker… However, this bud is seed free so far. So a small amount of breaking the bud up to get rid of the few stems, and you can pack a bowl without grinding.

The Smoke

The Planet X OG has a very warm, Hashy flavor with a hint of rose petals… The smoke is expansive, making it hard to hold a large toke. The exhale is very silky, and smooth. It has an earthy, slightly spice aftertaste.

The Effect

Planet-X-26Planet X OG is a very heavy medication. It soothes pain, and eases mind and body. This is one of those strains that will leave you melting on the couch, and staring off into space with your eyes half open. If you have muscle pain that keeps you awake at night, you might want to find yourself some Planet X OG. This stuff will have you sleeping like a baby.

Planet X OG: Final Thoughts

The Planet X OG is a very heavy Indica. It is related to the other planetary OG’s (Jupiter OG, Mars OG etc) This bud is great for pain relief, stress relief, insomnia, and just plain relaxation. Do not expect to be very productive on this strain, and do not operate heavy machinery.

Dr Durban Marijuana Drink – Review

Dr-Durban-Marijuana-Drink

There are a lot of Medicinal Marijuana drinks on the market. Most of them suffer from the same problems. By the time you buy them, they are usually stale, and the sweetness tends to clash with the taste of the cannabis. I often find myself trying them anyway (and now that I am writing for this site I have an excuse.)

Dr Durban Marijuana Drink

I decided to try a Cannabis soda to do an edible review on (would that be drinkable?). I checked through the selection at my local dispensary, and decided on Kushtown’s Dr Durban Poison Soda. I assumed (correctly) that the “Dr” was in reference to a “Dr Pepper” type flavor. I figured that would go better with the weed taste.

Taste Test

As far as flavor goes, I was correct. The slightly bitter flavors of the Dr Durban Marijuana drink complement the weed taste and make it barely noticeable when drinking. This will, however,  give you some pretty potent weed burps… Overall the taste is what you would expect. Dr Pepper with a hint of pot. As is usual with marijuana soda’s, this was a bit flat. I am not sure if this is a shelf life issue or if the THC somehow effects the carbonation. (if someone out there knows the answer please leave a comment below).

Of the handful of marijuana drinks that I have tried, This seems be one of the better tasting sodas. It is not overpowering, and is pretty tasty.

According to the bottle, this marijuana drink contains 78mg of THC per bottle. I have found that about 30mg of THC in an edible will give me slight effects, 50mg will make me really feel it… 78mg may be a bit to much.

Nutritional Information

Dr-Durban-7According to the nutritional facts on the bottle, This marijuana drink contains:

  • 90 Calories
  • 0g Fat
  • 70mg Sodium
  • 24g total Carbohydrates
  • 24g Sugar

Although it is not great for you, I think that is better then your average major brand soda. (I try not to drink a lot of soda, so I don’t have any around to compare it to.)

Effects

As far as the effects go, I must say I am a bit disappointed. I drank the marijuana drink about an hour and a half ago, and The effects are minimal. I can feel heaviness to my limbs, and a relaxing body buzz, but the head effects are non-existant.

This honestly feels more like about 30mg of THC. The effects are not nearly as intense as they were with the Trippy Truffles I reviewed last week, and they had about the same dosage. I have a feeling that the flatness of this soda, and the low intensity of the effects both point to it having been on the shelf for a while.

Chances are, This would have been great if it was fresh. I would suggest checking as to how long this has been on the shelf if you are going to try it.
