What can I say other than Wow!

Wow on a lot of levels in fact.

First and foremost, the service I received from The NugNinjaz was superb. Naturally I was a little cautious to use a vendor I haven’t used before and a vendor who is relatively new to LB. I see their name popping up here and there in topics and posts and its all been good so I thought Id give them a go. Ive not seen Cali-O for a long time and I think the last time I had it was probably a good 10 years ago but it was a bit hit and miss at the time.

The Ninjaz themselves replied to all my messages in next to no time at all. They were incredibly accommodating and I felt much more comfortable to purchase from them almost as soon we started communicating.

Stealth is on point!

Postage was epically fast – Less than 24 hours from being sent to actually hitting my doormat. What was more impressive is that I ordered way after their cut off time and it still went out the very same day and was with me the next. Really pleased!

As for the ‘Nugz’ - I love old skool strains, they haven’t been over messed with and the fact that they are still famous or perhaps infamous now probably speaks for itself as to the enjoyability of the strain and just the sheer quality of it.
But wow, this is beyond a proper example of Cali-O! This is on another level. I only bagged myself a G and I truly hope I can grab some more after pay day. I opened the bag and the first thing I noticed was that the G I got was a very generous portion! : )
Then I was hit with really pungent skunky, Piney aromas. After that initial onslaught of skunk and pine it seems to mellow into a more Zesty smell. Not so much Citrusy but definitely zesty and kind of refreshing.

Took it out of the bag and holy horses the Trichs explode off of it. Mental amounts of glistening little crystals. The crystals do not just completely lace the exterior of the bud either, it is literally filled with them! As soon as you break a bud open you get even more. It’s a bit like someone using a signal mirror to get your attention from a distance because at every angle there is another glint or sparkle. Genuinely some of the nicest looking bud I think I’ve got from LB and there have been some absolute corkers in the past. My Pics do not do it justice at all.

The bud is cured to absolute perfection too. It breaks apart perfectly but remains with just the right amount of stickiness, considering the buds are pretty dense, I was pleasantly surprised. Someone has seriously given their love and attention to this crop.
It grinds up lovely and fluffy and makes a really nice joint.
When you spark up its really gassy, piney, skunky to the taste. Then you get that zesty tatse that the Cali O is known for. Its like a mix of orange zest and a little bit of the white pith with some sweet orangey tang to it as well. Sort of like those little easy peelers (that are never easy to peel) you get from the supermarket.

As far as effects go, I have been smoking for nearly 20 years and I think I'm relatively safe with most strains but I genuinely really underestimated this one. Indicas are usually my go to being a night smoker, so knowing that this is a 50/50 hybrid or thereabouts I thought I was relatively safe to have a nice generous end of day spliff. Little did I know the grave mistake I had just made…
You get hit with that lovely Sativa high first. It creeps up on you then hits straight to the head, behind the eyes and massaging your cheeks. Nice and uplifting. Yep I'm ready to go make some music, do some sketching, fire up the forge, whatever it may be that is going to satisfy my creativity bug. So lets finish this joint and go do it… Erm, or not. I Get about half way through and then the Indica half decides to come out and play. Kicked me in the bag of the legs and demanded I sit down and melt into the couch… Or else!
I finished, done exactly as Indica demanded I do and then - lets just say I had a really nice sleep that night.
Needless to say I went a little lighter on the next dooby and left myself a little pipes worth after that. So 1G got me one generous spliff, a less aggressive spliff and a pipe. That’s a good spread!

Ive read write ups of different strains before on the likes of Leafly, etc and I have sometimes found that they leave me expecting more from a certain strain after I’ve bought it. I have to say all descriptions I’ve read of Cali-O are absolutely on point and some, as far as this batch from the NugNinjaz goes.

You really do need to be dose cautious but if you need a good strong hit then roll this generously and you will not be disappointed. I was immediately stress free and I know this would be a great pain killer too if thats what you need.

This is a beast, at least I found it to be. Everyone has different tolerances and different effects to different strains but I can quite confidently say that this has been one my all time most impressive smokes. Really, really enjoyable and the quality is exceptional! I would happily commission the grower and have this grown for me as a staple go to smoke.
True Bud Perfection!

All in all a great experience with the Ninjaz! I Cannot wait to go back.

Oh and Im really sorry - I cant leave a review I was signed out when I ordered : (
