I am nearly through the jar. What began as an eighth is now down to what will go into three final joints, each about .4 grams.

I opened the jar almost three weeks ago but the remaining flower still smells funky and pleasant. There is a fruity aroma but there's also a sharp dankness that is reminiscent of what you would catch wafting out of a tennis ball container—rubber and gasoline. The grind has been exceptionally even. Sticky. A little dense.

The dispensary menu showed a photo of a green Cresco container for this Pineapple Punch but when I picked it up, the man behind the counter pulled a red-topped container from the bag. Sativa? Yes, I'd call it sativa leaning. 65/35. That is one characteristic of the Pineapple Punch strain that makes it somewhat uncommon: it delivers sativa effects without first taking the smoker through anything too racy or confrontational. I was smoking this flower within a couple weeks of putting the late great Hugo to sleep, and if ever there was something that a strong sativa was going to throw at me, force me to deliberate upon (further) it would be that. Except with Pineapple Punch it was a clear sail. ..
