Hello my LB kings n queens 👑 just wanted to leave some mini reviews and break down what i’ve tried from this big fat juicy menu 🤤 it’s such a delicious looking selection and can be a bit overwhelming to try and choose from so hopefully it’ll help some biggaz pick out something they’ll like
So this was my first time purchasing from TSM and my greedy lips wanted to try a bunch of different strains 😂😋 they were super helpful in sorting out a custom order for me… it was all sorted and sent it out quickly and the selection box arrived in less than 24 hours from sending! Only thing to improve on the packaging is printed labels rather than hand written.
11 beautiful strains landed and here’s my thoughts on each…
Lime Latti
Looks and feel…
dense nugs that are a fairly bright green, decent amount of orange pistils, with some darker green hues coming through too, looks very nice but not the most trichome coverage on these
Smell…
super strong on this, it’s very citrusy, a lil bit sweet with a slight musky posh soap vibe to it. Tastes just like it smells and the taste comes out a LOT, it’s by far the most flavourful strain of all the ones i tried
Effects…
it’s a bit of a creeper, first 2 mins i don’t really feel anything, now 10 mins later i’m quite licked, starts as a buzzy head high in the top and back back of my head and get this slight warmth but not an unpleasant warmth. this one makes me waffle as well, when i’m messaging people or writing something after trying this i find it hard to keep concise and my mind wonders off on tangents. It tapers off into a pretty chilled high, get a tiny lil bit of couch lock but can still function but feel quite spaced out on this. it’s probs not a wake n bake strain for me and best for evening for me because of the spaced out feeling. not an uplifter but more of a relaxer and doesn’t motivate me or sedate me, just quite a heady high into a relaxed and spaced out state. The taste wasn’t really for me but this is definitely one for the flavour chasers, especially if you like lime/citrus… i just wasn’t a fan of the posh hotel soap note in it, but a friend of mine absolutely loved the taste so just depends on preference
Cream Cake
Looks and feel…
got some spring to the nugs, but still dense, got a nice layer of trichomes and different shades of green hues coming though on this one
Smell…
slight creaminess and subtle citrus with a bit of a tart sourness coming through, slightly kush-esque but i’m finding it difficult to pin point the smell of this one
Effects…
smooth hits quick uplifting heady high and puts me in a good mood but then start to feel it in body and makes me feel quite alert but calm but alert of my surroundings and sounds and smells and noises, get the full heightened senses on this, this is a winner for listening to music and eating. 30 mins in it flips on you into a couch lock and you feel just as high as the beginning, just differently more uplifting and high feeling at beginning and more stoned couch lock at 30 mins in and beyond. Doesn’t blow me away but it’s a heady functional high that heightens my senses at first and then fades into a couch lock high.
Jungle Grapes
Looks and feel…
Quite dense and compact, but really good bag appeal here and caked in trichomes with lots darker green and some purple hues come through, this beauty grinds up and looks lovely👌
Smell…
Fuck me this a strong one, it’s earthy, got a deep muskiness to it, with a slightly peppery but sweet dark grape smell. It’s very aromatic and i like the smell of this one a lot
Effects…
This one hits me quick and hard for like 20 mins and then tapers off into a good mood and overall feel good strain. I end up feeling kinda creative but still very relaxed and just overall in a good mood on this one. Initially I thought it was going to spangle me but it doesn’t end up knocking me out or sedating me after that initial slap in the face 😂 For me this is a perfect for post work strain, when you’ve still got a nice amount of time left in the day, or late afternoon when you’re just chilling in front of the tv or playing some video games kinda thing. This is a really nice overall mood lift and a perfect level of stoned after the blast off, as that spangles me a bit tbh 😂😵💫 it’s got good legs on it too, really enjoy the stone after the initial spangledness , it’s uplifting n relaxing at the same time and this is one of my favs of the lot.
Motor Breath
Looks and feel…
bag appeal 😍👌 so many deep purple hues coming through on this with a dusting of trichomes over it all, it looks crazy good, and when you grind it up it turns into this beautiful purple and green mirage in your grinder that lets out this wonderful stench. Big fat dense nugs on this one too
Smell…
gassy musky fuelly earthy aroma on this one with some slight slight hint of citrus, kinda get OG vibes on this and it’s got this off twang as well, but yeah this is a top top top strain for me and i love this one
Effects…
The reviews speak for themselves on this, seems to be the strain everyone’s fallen in love with from tsm. it’s the heavy hitter of the group, if you want a ko strain this one’s for you, it’s definitely one of my favs and in the top 3 i’ve tried from tsm for sure. Mashes me up perfectly and couldn’t recommend it enough, especially if you like the heavy hitting, gassy, ko strains. Have tried this strain once before and loved it and nothings changed after trying it from tsm. This one will fuck you all up in the best possible way 😵💫
Ice Cream Mints
Looks and feel…
bag appeal is CRAZY on this one 😍 some of the best out of them all, most trichomes out of all the ones i tried by far. Big fat dusting on top of the nugs with some dark green hues sticking out like the top of a snowy mountain, but yeah this was a beautiful looking bit of bud 🤤
Smell…
Really interesting terp profile on this and find it quite hard to pinpoint the smells, it’s got quite a lot going on for me. It’s like a floral and earthy, maybe some dried flowers in there, kind of like a bit of dried lavender or something and some other bits too, not really getting much mint but you do get a slightly sweet and sugary, creamy, herbal, cakey dough like funk to it. it’s not the strongest smelling either and the smell was a bit muted compared to other strains
Effects…
heavy hitter but not on motor breath level, i get heavy eye lids with some couch lock and feel tired and sedated after about an hour or so and i get some great sleep on this one too. First hour there isn’t much sedation and it’s slightly uplifting at first and then more of a stereotypical stoned feeling, want snacks, don’t wanna move, feel a bit mongy and ready to chill for evening kinda thing. But the longer you wait on this the more the sedation and tiredness starts to kick in, eventually just end up dozing off with some background tv or a film on with this strain.
Blanco
Looks and feel…
Not the craziest bag appeal from the nugs shape and size, but SOOOOOO many trichomes on this one, it’s like icing sugar, i’d say it’s in 2nd place behind ice cream mints on the trichomes 😍😋 It’s still got some spring to it and one of the more springy ones out of them all, and it’s a light and bright green with patches of orange pistils that all come through the trichomes together in little clusters and looks quite nice overall, just the bud structure and size wasn’t the most appealing on the eye but yeah not a bad looking strain or bit of flower by any stretch of the imagination.
Smell…
slightly citrus dank gassy smelling strain, with a bit of earthy pine and fresh cut grass and fuel on the exhale for me.
Effects…
First smoke I was sharing with friend, we both felt instant uplifting cerebral high, both felt quite chatty and started listening to music on a terrace overlooking London. She said the music was the best version of the music she’d ever heard and I also thought music sounds great on this strain too. The head high hits straight away and that’s the main feeling i get from this, I do also start to feel from the bottom of my body up so like in my calves first and then into my back and feel a bit relaxed, mood is slightly elevated and senses heightened, with no sedation but munches kicked in, i wanted all the snacks in the world after about an hour. This one’s a bit of a creeper too, feel it getting stronger for the first 20 mins. Feel quite blasted on this one but it doesn’t have much character to it if that makes sense, like usually would feel energetic or uplifted or sedated or couch locked or relaxed or something but with this i just felt quite high for a while, kinda like having distillate carts vs live resin if that makes any sense. Feel like this is a high percentage thc strain but doesn’t have anything that takes it in a certain direction
Animal Face
Looks and feel…
another one with stupid good bag appeal 😍 absolutely caked in trichomes, looks really dense but has that perfect spring to it and sticks to your finger after squeezing, darker orange pistils come through on this one and lots of lovely dark green and deep purple hues that look wonderful, this one grinds up and looks beautiful as well, one of the nicest looking out of the bunch
Smell…
grinded is more fresh n bright
this one’s really interesting on the nose, it’s a lil bit of spice to it, some strong earthy, slightly nutty and piney tones with a sour gas to it. After grinding the smell really comes out in a more fresh n bright way. Finding it a bit difficult because it smells EXACTLY like an old library I used to use, like exactly the same and it takes me back to being right there and i’m finding it hard to explain what that smell is. But it’s that old wooden mustiness that just takes me back to sitting in that library for hours on end. It’s a lovely smell don’t get me wrong but it’s one that i’m finding hard to separate from the library 😂📚
Effects…
After reading a couple reviews I thought i was about to get knocked out after a few tokes on this before bed time. Much to my surprise, I found the first 30 mins to an hour to be a head high that made me feel quite uplifted and made my thoughts quicker, my mood was enhanced and thought uh oh here we go ima be up for a while now, but after that 45 min - 1hr mark it fully switched up on me and the deep full body relaxation kicked in, all of a sudden i found myself couch locked, sedated, and it knocked me out all night and actually got a good nights sleep on this. got some legs on it too, and i ended up being a big fan of the initial uplift into ko of this strain, one of the better strains out of all the ones i tried for sure. Would def recommend this one to all the biggaz reading! It’s a mood enhancing imagination booster of a strain that fades into a couch lock sedating knock you out high.
Mac 1
Looks and feel…
Beautiful strain, light green in colour with orange pistils coming through looking very pretty indeed, and then also a lovey trichome coverage on this one too, and also smells divine when ground up
Smell…
lovely smelling flower this, it’s a sweet dank smell to it, and just smells beautiful. There’s a slightly sour, herbal, spicy, citrusy, sweet funkiness to it but it’s a lovely smell overall and one that i’ve really enjoyed, definitely one of my favs on the nose
Effects…
It hits quick and it’s strong, and also has some long legs on it too. Starts off a really nice head high behind the eyes and you quickly feel it working it’s magic through your body, I feel relaxed and a good positive feeling, definitely mood elevation and some euphoria, and an overall calmness as well. Struggle to concentrate on anything with this, thoughts changing and can’t focus on much, zoning out quite a lot and kinda just in my own lil bubble for a while. It hit me harder than i expected as well, like i never get red eyes and after trying this, it had me looking bloodshot 😂 and it actually made me look stoned which is impressive. Also had me coughing which is a rarity these days as well, so whatever this strains doing to me, it’s working. I just feel great on this, mood is definitely enhanced but not energising, just good mood and relaxed which is exactly what i want. Had a great time chatting shit with my mates with some tunes in the background on this and it’s definitely up there with one of my favs of them all. This is definitely the best version of mac i’ve ever had and would definitely recommend this one to anyone reading.
Gary Payton
Looks and feel…
Pretty good bag appeal on these but not the most amazing out the lot. They have a decent amount of spring to them, and not super dense like a few of the other strains. They are a darker green compared to some of the others as well and have a few orange pistils coming through, but lots of dark green hues are the main characteristic on these, and they still look lovely and have a nice trichome coverage too.
Smell…
Gassy burned rubber and white paint is exactly how it smells, can’t really think of a better way to put it for this
and it comes out in the taste too. I really like this terp profile but can imagine it might not be up everyone street.
Effects…
This is up there and really nice, it’s a nice head stone at first and not too intense. It relaxes me and don’t wanna move much and just kinda feel content sitting around and not doing anything. At the time, the body high kicks in, you get a head and body stone, not behind the eyes but more a top of the head and down the back high relaxation feeling, not sleepy or sedating, just relaxed and content. Had a nice wake n bake on this and it lasted quite a while, not super strong blow you away hitting strain, but really nice level of stoned and it’s still strong it just doesn’t hit you super hard. That being said, i’m a big fan, usually have anxiety or racing thoughts and this calmed that down but still feel quite stoned, but yeah it’s not a motivating strain by any means. I’ve had it a couple different times in the past and this is the best version of gary payton i’ve had.
Bacio Gelato
Looks and feel…
dense and great bag appeal, different shades of green all come through with orange pistils woven throughout, even ratio of all colours on this one and also great trichome coverage, they literally fall off into the bag the longer you leave it
Smell…
smell was a bit muted in this one, im
guessing it might have been from a slightly older batch of been sitting around a bit longe than the others. The smell itself is a bit hard to explain but it smells thick, like a thick aroma coming off it, its a funky creaminess with fresh grassy note and a lil bit of sweetness coming through too, but mainly this thick funky slightly fruity creaminess to me
Effects…
This one surprised me the most out of them all, was expecting a heavy hitting, evening, ko, mongy strain. Oh how wrong was I, it starts off as a mellow head high that makes you feel relaxed but makes my whole body relaxed not just head, but it doesn’t couch lock or sedate me at all. 5 mins in and i’m feeling alive, and energetic and moods enhanced. I usually have some negative thoughts going through my mind but i was loving myself on this one and actually felt quite active on this too, which was a surprise. my body wants to move after having some of this, I went for a walk and ended up having a joint of this by a lil lake and afterwards my walk back turned into a power walk and i had no intention of stopping and ended up walking around for like an hour in the cold just because i was enjoying moving. my body wants to be active and I don’t get sedation or couch lock, just relaxes me and i end up finding everything i’m doing really interesting, and i end up hyper focussing on whatever i’m doing, whether that’s reading, writing, cooking, watching something, having sex, exercising, just anything i do, i feel very interested in it and enjoy doing it more than usual. Overall good mood enhancer, stimulating, and makes your body wanna move, if there’s any gym goers who like to medicate pre gym, this is 100% the strain for you, think a workout after having this would be perfect, i’m yet to try this but think it would be perfect for the gym.
Pink Kush
Looks and feel…
Bright green, one of the brightest of the bunch, some orange pistils and some darker green hues throughout with a lovely dusting of trichomes, and still has some spring to it although is quite dense
Smell…
It’s got earthy undertones with a citrusy sweet berry top note with a classic kush twang to it, you get that dank mustiness coming through with the sweet slightly woody background
Effects…
This is where this beauty shines, it’s a medicinal powerhouse… this is painkiller kush for me… helps with sleep, helps with appetite, helps with aches n pains, and just relaxation in general, i’m a HUGE fan of this one. it’s not the hardest hitting but i’m loving it for the calmness and full body relaxation it gives me. This is especially good for all the medicinal users on here, one of my favs and stand outs for sure! did a full review of this on the pink kush item page if you’d like to see a more in depth review of it, but i couldn’t recommend this one enough it’s a beautiful example of the strain. Also mixed really really well with motor breath, i re cream mints, animal face, and jungle grapes. Love using this one for its medicinal benefits for me, and then adding a heavy hitter on top 😵💫 it’s a dreamy ko combo 🤤😴💤
Must buys and my personal favs:
motor breath, mac, pink kush
Amazing strains and 100% would get again
ice cream mints, animal face, jingle grapes, gary payton
Very good strains but didn’t blow me away but would still get again
blanco, bacio gelato, cream cake
good but just not to my taste, probably wouldn’t get again
lime latti
bad quality flower
none
if anyone wants more info on anything i tried, feel free to send me a message and i’ll be happy to let you know my thoughts 😊
