Druids Magic do it again!
started topic
Druids Magic do it again!
I'll let the picture do the talking!
The 5 inch whopper and slightly shorter buddy that was meticulously sent by DM as my 7g order of Umme, from the latest harvest. And yes, it was overweight!
Absolutely fantastic smoke too!
No need to think about buying from DM...just buy it! You won't regret it. All my purchases from DM have been so smooth and friendly, I just can't recommend DM, the grows and their service enough! Top class all round!
I'll try to write up a review when I have more time as I had the honour of trying all three strains from the latest harvest, but don't wait for the reviews. Just buy it! You won't fail and you know it will all go quickly! 😄
Peace and Love to everyone. Big up to LB!✌️

I hope this is OK. I just presumed it meant GBP as that's where I am. Sorry!!

Hey Biggas, say Hi👋 to The Ladies Of The Grove!
It's all in the angle.... Look at it from top down and it'll look much bigger.. 😉
But can't promise if it will last any longer..
LB needs to date …

Hey Biggas, say Hi👋 to The Ladies Of The Grove!
Here’s two wonderful young debutants about to pass out from finishing school at The Grove, courtesy of master cannoisseurs, Druids Magic:
Lady Slurricane (daughter of Purple Punch & Do Si Dos).
You can see from the photo below that she just sparkles!, and has the beguiling scent of the family confectionery business. She is going to take all your cares away as you rest your head in her lap and you’d be mad to go anywhere. In fact, as you drift away you may wonder if you’ll ever worry about anything ever again!
Lady Hyperglue (daughter of Superglue [Afghani x Northern Lights] & Apple Fritter).
With that heritage she is as cool as you like AND a racy little number! Wearing a pungent scent of forest fruits you are about to be enchanted. A gentle touch for some light hearted fun, but heavier petting and she’s going to take you to the Velvet Room. Where you will submit….believe me.
These are just two of the finest ladies about to be bestowed on us and they are truly a delight. I am in love ❤️ You will be too….

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a lovely review 🥰
I've been a bag of nerves since I posted the samples not knowing if you'd like them! I can sleep sounder now as I'd day that's a positive reaction. Thank you 😊

Well now the woodland testers have both give the thumbs-up 👍 the White Runtz will be listed on the 28th with the others coming along closely behind. 😀
Great timing! Glastonbury just around the corner and I'm starting to gather my stash. Beautiful.
Mmmmm….it’s as if my photos are a Vogue centre spread to your Razzle ‘stack’ 😂🤩😂🤩😂

DeadRabb1t told me he has vintage Escorts in his hutch. He says they got damp in the rain 🌧️ and got stuck together 🤷♂️
found like 2 bags full of razzle and others in a park when I was a teen 😂😂😂
Park porn was rife in our days

Escort? I always found Fiesta to be better handling for quick burst... 🙊
I know, it's a very old thread, probably, but I couldn't help it as I know exactly what you dirty so and so's are talking about... 🤣🤣
Anyway, just a quick hello from another fully paid up member of the Council of Elders. Have a great night everyone.

Cheek! 😳 Those girls look beautiful!!!….can you see through your morning vape clouds!?….zoom in on those sparklers mate! Beats Page 3 any day! 🤤
Definitely showing your age there Polly , I'm sure there's whole swathes of bigga pondering that reference 🤣😎
Why do I know about it? Well as a part time witchfinder I meticulously count the nipples daily to make sure none are hiding in plain sight (*bonus points for anyone getting the reference 🤣)

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 kno…

Alleyne
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.

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
