Super Boof by Farmer G

~ johnbrandall ~ Leave a comment

September 6, 2023, 10:02 p.m. At my house in University City, MO. Smoked some of the Super Boof from Star Buds earlier in the day. The grower is Farmer G.

I had never had the strain. It's got a lengthy, convoluted lineage. Is there anything wrong with that? It's an open question I ask in earnest, I don't claim to know or have an answer.

Among its ancestors are: Black Cherry Soda, an unknown strain; Skywalker OG; Rare Dankness (which in turn is choc full of familiar building blocks like Chemdog, Triangle Kush, and Ghost OG); Larry OG; Grand Daddy Purple. And that's just one side, the Black Cherry Punch parent. The other side is Tropicana Cookies, which derives from GSC and Tangie. I had some Tangie earlier this year, or smoked something closely derived from Tangie and it seemed to make me a little crazy. Fitful, capricious, on the lookout for trouble. Not the good kind of crazy.

I had a touch of paranoia after smoking a bowl of the Super Boof. Taste was there, not phenomenal, not absent. I tasted that vanilla malt flavor, along with some helium balloon and a vague frozen vegetable taste. I can't put my finger on it, obviously. I didn't sneeze but my nose quivered.

I've settled in a bit. The writing helps, piecing through it. It could also be that my mindset leans rough and dark at the moment. I'm tired. Didn't have the greatest sleep last night. Smokin' too much weed or not enough. The drive back, unpacking in the dark. I won't miss the heat but I will miss the light.

Super Boof is a pseudonym of Blockberry. They are the same strain. The page for Blockberry on Seedfinder (click here) has the best description I've found. Super Boof might be the best example of a strain that might be indica, might be sativa. Depends on the plant, depends on who you ask. It might also be that smoking Super Boof takes you in one effects direction first, then winds its way around to another set of effects. This is why I smoke!

Orange Malt from Crops

~ johnbrandall ~ 1 Comment

Another great Orange Malt session. That stuff is amazing. Unassuming. Like what you would get from your best 1:1 THC:CBD gummy. No bite, not racy. What are the noids? It had me cleaning, casual, affable. What a great smoke. And it carries for three hours.

Eventually I'm going to re-up with something else, something heavy but it's 6 pm on a Sunday and I just got a lot of tedious work done, the Malt still running through my veins. It helps me feel capable, ready, open, flexible. What more can you ask for? It's not trippy, it's not spacey, it's not really a high-idea smoke. It's a get-shit-done bowl of get-after-it.

This is a Strain of the Year candidate. It has me thinking about what other strains are made from crossing Ice Cream Cake with a sativa. Because I like Ice Cream Cake a lot. Pleasant high, makes me curious and happy. But the Orange Malt has more energy behind it. Also makes me interested in the other parent, Mimosa. You can get "straight-up" Mimosa. You can get Clementine, too. I'm intrigued.

Let me take this moment to appeal to the Crops brand, owned by Justice Co. I see that Crops is on the menu in Troy, IL and in Maryville, IL (until just now I did not realize there was a dispensary in Maryville... I am never up that way). I go through Sauget, IL, or can, on a regular basis. Please send some Crops drops back to Beyond/Hello. I have supported Crops on the Beyond/Hello menu but there hasn't been any new Crops dropped in Sauget all year. I have had your Orange Malt, Donny Burger, Lime OG, etc. I will buy it if you get it back on the Beyond/Hello menu. And with that, I am out—
