If you’re ever in the area, visit SuperLit in Olmsted, Ohio. They are located in a quiet little plaza next to a convenience store with a well-stocked drink cooler. I saw flavors of Mountain Dew that I never knew existed!
SuperLit has another location in Elyria that I’ve never been to. The reason I stopped into SuperLit Olmsted was because Professor Bluntstache told me they are one of the headshops that sell his goods.
While there, I checked out their selection of pipes, lighters and accessories. I appreciated their large table of free flyers and stickers.
The main attraction was Professor Bluntstache’s top-shelf flower. It was reasonably priced at $30 an eighth, $60 a quarter, $120 a half and $240 for an ounce. It would have been nice if the halfs and quarters were a little less expensive, but regardless, it is nice to have official Bluntstache bud on hand to purchase at any time. I bought a gram of Black Magic.
Organically-grown, pesticide-free Black Magic flower from Professor Bluntstache
The packaging didn’t even say Professor Bluntstache on it. The branding was Dickie’s x SuperLit. The aroma and taste was sweet berry, citrus, and creamy terpinolene. The effect provided an euphoric, uplifting experience. This bud was excellent! It was fresher, tastier, and better-looking than anything I’ve seen in a long time, besides other strains of Bluntstache bud.
My gram weighed 1.15 grams. The THC stats said THCA: 25%, Delta-9 THC: 0.29%.
This stuff looks, tastes, smells and feels like cannabis, not low-grade, harsh hemp flower. It was not dry. Taste: 8/10, harshness: 3/10, strength: 8/10, smell strength: 7/10, length of medical effects: 60 minutes.
When I found out Ohio Bloom dispensaries would be releasing an exclusive Galenas strain on July 1st, I prepared my lungs and pocketbook for the date. The stuff was called Hawaiian Snowcone and was said to be high in limonene and caryophyllene. I looked forward to an invigorating smoke just in time for the humid Ohio Fourth of July. Edit: This strain can be found at any dispensary now, not just Bloom. The exclusive deal must have been for a limited time.
I bought my bag on release date and immediately handed a bowl-sized nug to a friend. Afterwards, the tenth weighed 2.79 grams. Not bad!
The Hawaiian Snowcone strain is a high-terp cross between Zkittlez, Lemon Cherry Gelato and Plushers. It came packaged in a pink Mylar baggie with a viewing window on the bottom. The bag smashed the buds and they were a bit flattened when poured onto the table.
I didn’t see the squid, but I felt as chill as these wizards after puffing the Hawaiian Snowcone.
As soon as I opened the Mylar, my room was filled with a heavy, dank aroma. When given a few whiffs I detected the fruity sweetness from the limonene along with clove from the caryophyllene. If I used my imagination it smelled like a weedy push pop or an infused ice cream treat. It was unique and alluring. I looked forward to smoking it!
The Hawaiian Snowcone buds contained medium and light green hues. They had clumps of small orange pistils that stuck close to the nugs. The flowers reformed their shape when squeezed. Each nug contained a single stem running through its middle. The trim was terrific. The only drawback about the look was the fact that the buds were a bit smashed from the bag.
I pulled a glass piece out of my Grunge Off bath, rinsed it, dried it, and packed it full of Hawaiian Snowcone. The buds broke down beautifully in my grinder. There was no dust or mist, just malleable shreddings that were easily moldable within the bowl head.
Packed Hawaiian Snowcone
The weed burned at about a medium speed and ashed light. It tasted like sweet vanilla mixed with citrus fruit and dank skunk. I could detect the spiciness from the caryophyllene. It made me think of Firecracker Ice Pops or Firework Faygo. The Hawaiian Snowcone cannabis was refreshing!
Melted Hawaiian Snowcone
It didn’t make me cough despite the high level of caryophyllene. Some people call this terpene “carycoughyllene” due to its potential harshness on the throat and lungs. In nature, caryophyllene is found in black pepper, clove and cinnamon. In my experience with marijuana, caryophyllene is a good terpene for those who smoke regularly, as it seems to pack a potent punch.
The Hawaiian Snowcone’s medical effects were strong. I got a balanced hybrid feeling, as I was focused and alert in my head yet my body seemed relaxed and pain-free. In most cases this is exactly the type of effect I am looking for out of my cannabis consumption experience.
I graded the Hawaiian Snowcone from Galenas with an 8 out of 10 for strength, 8 out of 10 for taste, 4 out of 10 for harshness, 8 out of 10 for smell strength and over 60 minutes for length of medical effects.

Wellspring Fields is a licensed cannabis grower and processor from Ravenna, Ohio. In addition to flower, they produce extracts, 510 carts, disposables, peanut butter, chocolates, topicals, tinctures, RSO syringes and infused beverages that they call “elixirs”. I have enjoyed several of their products including the chocolates and elixirs. I have also tried their lip balm which I am not sure that they make anymore.
I was at Certified Dispensary in South Euclid, a week out from Rosin Fest. I had no flower to smoke to hold me over until the festival.
While browsing Certified’s interactive menu in their lobby I had a chance encounter with a stoner friend! We talked for a bit while I looked through the half ounces. I had yet to try any Wellspring Fields flower, and I saw they had a half of Project Red for 20% off, so I made the selection and bought the bag. The lineage on this stuff was Pacoima Kush x Ghetto Red.
When I got home and opened it up I was hit with an earthier smell then I expected. The whiff contained hints of berry or fruit, but mostly I smelled some grassiness that made me a bit nervous about how the stuff would taste. It didn’t smell stale.
The flower itself had a nice look to it. Most of the buds were big and chunky. They were all dense and medium-green in hue with fuzzy orange pistils that stuck to the buds. There was a little bit of stem attached to the bigger buds but the flower was far from what I’d consider a “Stemmy Buscemi”.
Project Red indica flower from Wellspring FieldsI like big buds and I cannot lie!
The Project Red half ounce clocked in .08 grams underweight at 14.07 grams. The buds were a bit dry and had a crunch to their squeeze. When broken down by hand it wasn’t too bad but through a grinder there was definitely some dust produced. The buds weren’t very sticky.
Project Red packed (post-Integra Boost packet)
This flower had about a medium burn speed and produced light greyish ash. It didn’t taste dry or stale. Thankfully, the earthiness to the smell translated well into the taste. The Project Red had a spicy, hoppy taste with raspberry or strawberry undertones. It wasn’t harsh. I ended up really enjoying the taste of the stuff!
Beat bowl of Project Red
I threw a RAW Integra Boost humidity control packet in with the Project Red flower and waited 24 hours. I was amazed at how well the packet brought this bud back to life. The stuff went from producing dust through a grinder to generating zero dust whatsoever. The flower became sticker and denser when broken up by hand. The nuggets lost their crunch when squeezed and tasted fresher and more flavorful!
The RAW Integra Boost packet brought a ton of life back to the dry Project Red flower
For me, the Project Red produced more of a relaxing medical effect. I’d consider it an indica-leaning hybrid. It didn’t make me tired but it didn’t give me the burst of energy I got from Woodward’s Frozen Bag sativa or Butterfly Effect’s Black Jack strain.
The Project Red relieved my pain and eased my mind without producing a headache or any other unwanted side effects. It made my mouth kind of dry and stimulated my hunger. This would be a good strain for someone looking to relax midday.
Another unique aspect of this bag was that the terpene info was only accessible by a QR code printed on the label. The attached link brought me to a detailed lab report with tons of info on terpenes, moisture and microbials.
I’d buy and smoke the Project Red again if given the opportunity. After enjoying my first flower strain from Wellspring Fields I’d love to try a few of their other offerings such as Stankasaurus, Strawberries and Cream, Puna Alien Fuel, Oh-Pie-Oh and Sour Tangie.
I gave the Project Red from Wellspring Fields a 7 for taste, 4 for harshness, 7 for strength, 6 for smell strength and 60 to 90 minutes for length of medical effects.

I have never been disappointed with Butterfly Effect’s flower. I once enjoyed a half ounce of 91 Royale and another time got a tenth of PPD that was some of the best purple-tasting bud in the Ohio program. When FRX in Elyria had a 42.0% off sale on April 20th, 2025, I picked up a half ounce of Black Jack at a reduced price.
The Black Jack’s lineage is Black Domina x Jack Herer. The top terpenes in my batch were terpinolene, myrcene and ocimene, a somewhat unique profile from what I’ve seen. It came packaged in a plastic half ounce jar with a plain black label and black plastic lid.
This bud had a strong, pungent scent. Beyond the classic weed smell there was a lot of muted fruitiness that seemed like a combination of apple and lemon. The Jack Herer influence was readily apparent in the scent, as I could detect that classic spiciness from the terpinolene. For some reason, the smell and taste of terpinolene kind of reminds me of banana. I couldn’t wait to find out of this stuff tasted like it smelled!
Unfortunately I did not weigh the half before initial consumption. The plastic jar was definitely filled to the brim with chunky nuggets, so I feel like it probably weighed up properly. The bud looked awesome, with no huge stems and no sugar leaves. Everything in the jar was smokable which is always a welcomed gift.
My last nug of Black Jack from Butterfly Effect
Butterfly Effect’s Black Jack nuggets were spongy yet dense. They were the perfect consistency without the need for a Boveda or Integra Boost humidity control packet. Color-wise, these buds were medium green with some darker flecks. The orange pistils were small and stuck tightly to the nugs.
When broken down by hand, the Black Jack shredded into nice little chunks. When I broke up the stuff through a grinder there was absolutely no dust produced. The broken-up flower was easy to work with and malleable, kind of like a flower putty. It packed up and burned beautifully and evenly.
Black Jack packed
My joints didn’t run whether they were pinners or hog’s legs. The burn speed was about medium and the ash was very light.
Black Jack smacked
There was no harshness or burning of the throat with this stuff. The taste was exquisite. It tasted just like it smelled! The sweet lemon notes were there, but I tasted more of that spicy apple flavor than anything, which to me is due to a combination of terpinolene and farnesene.
While limonene was not listed as a top terpene, terpinolene was the top terp. Usually bud that tastes super lemony has both limonene and terpinolene in high amounts, but it seemed like the lack of limonene prevented the lemony, citrus flavor from shining front and center.
I’d describe this bud as having a muted fruit taste (think apple or banana, not sharp citrus like orange or lemon) along with heavy herbal woodiness. The hoppy dankness was also there from the myrcene. It reminded me of the classic Jack Herer strain that I love or Buckeye Relief’s Schromulan, which is thankfully back on dispensary shelves.
The medical effects were definitely sativa. This is the kind of strain you want to smoke while getting work done. I killed two spider mites with one spray of neem oil: not only was I focused and motivated but my neck and back pain had vanished.
I would recommend Butterfly Effect’s Black Jack flower to anyone looking for an energizing sativa that tastes great and burns smooth. I could enjoy the smell of this stuff for hours on end. It was one of the best-smelling strains I had come across in a while!
I gave the Black Jack an 8 for taste, 3 for harshness, 7 for strength, 8 for smell strength and 60 to 90 minutes for length of medical effects.

Terpenes: terpinolene 1.40%, b-myrcene 0.53%, b-ocimene 0.46%. On Butterfly Effect’s official graphic for the strain they also list farnesene, which I believe could have been the fourth-top terpene in this strain due to the Black Jack’s apple-like smell and taste.

I have been wanting to review some Woodward flower for a while. Their quality standards are second to none. You can tell with each toke that this crew has passion for the plant. They release flower in fifths and halfs along with exceptional cured resin 510 carts.
I once had a job interview with Woodward’s parent company Fire Rock and it was a great experience. The interviewer saw I had a Stone Cold Steve Austin notebook and went off on a tangent about pro wrestling! When the interview was finished, he talked to me about wrestling for several minutes. They even had wrestling action figures in their break room.
I still use this 2000 Steve Austin notebook for note taking, 25 years after production. The skull on the front cover is a lenticular animation that switches to Steve’s face when moved to an angle.
There are so many strains I’d like to try from Woodward Fine Cannabis: Grapehead, Banana Mac, True OG, Platinum Kush Breath, Animal Face, Cherry Jungle and many others. I had the chance to sample some exquisite Rainbow Marker a few weeks ago with a friend. Today I will be reviewing the Frozen Bag half ounce that I purchased on 04/20/2025 for 40% off.
The Frozen Bag sativa flower is a research and development strain, so I hadn’t seen it around before. At the time it was only available in a half ounce of mini buds. Usually I try to stay away from mini buds, smalls and popcorn if possible, but the Woodward minis still had a better bag appeal than a majority of strains. I decided to give the stuff a shot.
Frozen Bag from Woodward Fine Cannabis
The Frozen Bag’s lineage is B.A.G. – Michigan Gas Factory Cut x Banana Butter Cups. It came packaged in a clear plastic half ounce jar with a colorful label and black plastic lid. I’ve heard some people say they wish Woodward would use glass jars to better preserve taste, but the plastic jars don’t bother me too much. They are lighter and much less likely to break when dropped. I’d prefer a plastic jar over a Mylar bag that would smash and dry the nugs.
When the jar was opened I got a fresh whiff of pinene! At 11.43 milligrams per gram of pinene, this stuff smelled like a weedy pine tree. There was more depth to the scent than just that, as I could also detect gas and a smoother smell that gave banana pudding vibes. There were high terps overall, with all top six listed terps clocking in at over 1 milligram per gram as you can see at the end of this review.
I didn’t get a chance to weigh the half ounce before initial consumption but the buds were packed to the top of the jar. You could definitely tell they were minis and not full nuggets. Some of the buds were medium-sized, some were small and some were tiny chunks.
I was happy to see that there was no shake, sugar leaves, loose stems or unsmokable matter. Some of the buds themselves had small stems but it was nowhere near egregious.
Many of the nuggets had dark purple notes which gave great visual appeal. The minis looked fuzzy and when cracked open you could see some trichomes. These buds had slight stickiness to them and had an overall fluffy, soft feel. They weren’t particularly dense.
The Frozen Bag flower was not dry. It broke up as expected through a grinder. Even though it wasn’t super dense it produced lots of material. There were no big stems within the buds. The Frozen Bag was super easy to work with when breaking down by hand. This is a wonderful strain for joint and blunt rollers!
I’d say the burn speed was about medium on this stuff. It didn’t go poof into smoke like a magician’s disappearing act but I wouldn’t say it was a slow-burner. Still, the bud itself smoked wonderfully. The ash color was very light and it tasted like it!
The Frozen Bag tasted just like it smelled. It was fresh, piney, gassy, weedy and smooth. I’m a huge fan of banana-flavored terpenes and this cannabis definitely had banana flavor buried within. It gave me an even greater desire to try their Banana Mac cut!
The medical effects were sativa-leaning. It seems as if a lot of Woodward’s strains are labeled hybrid so it was nice to try their take on a sativa. I was focused, energized, pain-free and inspired. For me the effects were clear-headed and introspective. The experience of smoking Frozen Bag and feeling the medical aftermath is truly something to behold.
Based on my experience with this half ounce, I’d buy this strain again. I gave the Frozen Bag from Woodward an 8 for taste, 2 for harshness, 8 for strength, 7 for smell strength and 60 to 90 minutes for length of medical effects.
Harvested on 02/12/2025 by Fire Rock, tested 03/06/2025 by North Coast Testing Labs, packaged on 03/19/2025, first consumed on 04/20/2025, expires on 02/11/2025.
I have wanted to try Certified’s Banana Skunkberry flower for a while. A friend of mine once had an incredible half ounce of the strain. It’s just been one of those situations where there are hundreds of Ohio strains to sample and only so many funds to work with. Unfortunately, there are other things I need to spend my money on besides marijuana!
While at Curaleaf this weekend I saw they had tenths of Banana Skunkberry on sale for 40% off. The expiration date was 07/28/2025, about two months away from date of purchase. If you weren’t aware, in Ohio, marijuana products expire one year after flower harvest or oil production. After this date they can no longer be sold legally.
I am usually hesitant to shop 40% or 50% off deals because the stuff is often, but not always, near the end of its shelf life. Sometimes the flower can be dry when it’s been sitting around for a long time. Technically, it should still be fresh since it is within its shelf life, but we all know this isn’t always the case.
However, there have been times where I got expired stuff that was still fresh. One time I bought a half ounce of Butterfly Effect’s 91 Royale a day before expiration and it wasn’t dry. The terps were still intact, at least mostly so. I’ve always had good luck with Butterfly Effect’s bud freshness, terp quality and ash color.
I love banana terpenes in general. Usually banana strains are hybrid or indica leaning, relaxing and pain-relieving. In the past I had tried Certified’s Banana Skunkberry 510 distillate cart and really enjoyed the taste and effect. With all of this in mind, I went ahead with the purchase of Banana Skunkberry flower for 40% off.
Certified’s Banana Skunkberry is a hybrid cross between Skunkberry and Banana OG Kx1. It came packaged in a glass jar with a black label and black plastic lid. Upon opening the jar I was hit with a skunky, smooth aroma. There was mild fruitiness to the scent and some distinct sour notes.
My tenth weighed 2.78 grams. The flower had an excellent look, with fuzzy and shiny trichomes along with large orange pistils. The overall color of the nugs were light green and almost yellow, but there were specs of dark green and purple strewn throughout. There was absolutely minimal stemmage and a very nice trim, with no sugar leaves or unsmokable matter.

The buds were pretty dry. When squeezed, they emitted a crispy crunch and lost their shape. When I snapped the buds apart, kief flew everywhere. A large percent of the nuggets turned to dusty marijuana mist when run through both the Santa Cruz Shredder and Flower Mill.
(Edit: After writing this review, I put a RAW Natural Humidity Control Packet powered by Integra Boost in the Banana Skunkberry jar. I left it there for 24 hours. This helped to bring some moisture to the flower. After this, there was no more dust when the Banana Skunkberry was run through a grinder.)
Thankfully the bud didn’t burn super fast. It burned at about a medium speed and produced light ash. While there was a bit of dryness to the flavor, I could still taste the terpenes with no problem. However, I would have loved to been able to taste this tenth when it originally hit the shelf!
This is what the bud looked like when beat
While it didn’t taste bad, it did have a bit of a dry tinge to the flavor. I got a light fruity banana flavor, some floral notes and some skunky weediness. I noticed that the official Banana Skunkberry website says the top terps are myrcene, limonene and caryophyllene, but my jar said the top terps were myrcene, limonene, linalool and pinene.
The dryness to the flavor wasn’t particularly harsh. It didn’t make me cough or phlegmy. The medical effects were as expected, relaxing and pain-relieving. The Banana Skunkberry didn’t make me sleepy, which was nice. I was able to write this article and get a bunch of chores done around the house after consumption.
I don’t regret buying this tenth at 40% off. I wish it would have been 2.83 grams instead of 2.78. It would have been nice if it was fresher, but I knew going into the deal that this would be a gamble. If nothing else, let this be a lesson to check harvest and expiration dates. If you have any Boveda packets sitting around, these are the types of situations where they can really come in handy.
I gave my tenth of Banana Skunkberry from Certified Cultivators a 6 for taste, 4 for harshness, 7 for strength, 7 for smell strength, and 60 minutes for length of medical effects.
Total THC 23%, Delta-9 THC 0.36%, THCA 25.80%, CBD 0%.
When in the area, I always enjoy visiting the Certified Dispensary in South Euclid. They usually have pretty good deals and a nice selection of Certified flower and vapes. Last time I was there the special was spend $300 and get a Certified shirt for a penny.
That deal wasn’t as good as Ohio Cannabis Company’s current offer, where if you download their app you get a free shirt, but I still ended up spending enough at Certified to get the shirt for a penny.
Recently I was the lucky recipient of a gift from a friend: a sample of Certified’s new Moonbow indica strain. The lineage is ZKZ (Zkittlez) x Doe-C-Doe. It came packaged in Certified’s standard tenth glass jar with a black label and black plastic lid.
It smelled light, floral and sweet. There was some weediness to the smell without doubt, but I noticed a lot of limonene and linalool in the aroma. The smell was unique. It definitely made me look forward to tasting the bud!
The top listed terps were limonene, linalool, b-caryophyllene and guaiol (pronounced “gwhy-EEE-ol”). After reading a little bit about guaiol I learned that its most prominent aromas are pine, wood and rose. Maybe that explains why I thought I smelled a hint of rose while whiffing the wares. Upon analyzing the bud, I realized the following: A
friend with weed is a friend indeed. I spend around three at the dispensary. I sample tree, an ample hobby for those who enjoy using THC.
My two-bud sample of Moonbow weighed 0.53 grams. It was light green with slight medium green hues. There were small orange pistils on the pot and fuzzy-looking trichomes throughout. When I broke the bud open I could see some shinier trichomes. The flowers were stemless.
The stuff wasn’t dry and it was reasonably dense. It broke up into nice chunks with my fingers but it wasn’t very sticky. When I ran the Moonbow through my Flower Mill it broke down beautifully. The milled marijuana was fluffy and easy to work with. Since the bud wasn’t dry there was no dust or marijuana mist.
Packed Moonbow bowl
When toke time finally arrived, I was thrilled to discover the Moonbow tasted not only just like it smelled…but better then it smelled. I could honestly taste the large amounts of linalool and guaiol in this stuff. What a unique and exciting terpene profile!
There was miniscule harshness to the Moonbow smoke as it flew through my esophagus. It went down smooth and produced no phlegm on the exhale. I truly enjoyed my time with every toke. The experience was something to behold.
The encounter made me think of my grandpa, puffing away on his tobacco pipe, enjoying the aroma with each draw. Smoking slowly and sufficiently, he savored the smoke with each toke he embarked upon. Thankfully in these modern days we are able to smoke cannabis instead of tobacco.
When the Moonbow bowl was finished the ash had a light hue.
Beat, cashed-out bowl of Moonbow (it had been Cashius Clayed)
The medical effects were relaxing yet inspiring. While smoking the Moonbow, I wrote this article, finished a song I had been working on and got an idea for another brand new song. Time flew by as I focused on the tasks at hand. I started the session at 8:00 am and by the time I looked down at the clock it was already 9:40 am.
I would definitely buy this stuff myself. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a rejuvenating, tranquil strain that tastes floral and unique. In my opinion it was more of a hybrid-leaning indica. I’ll keep my fingers crossed to see the Moonbow available in a half ounce!
I gave the Moonbow from Certified Cultivators an 8 for taste, 2 for harshness, 8 for strength, 7 for smell strength and 60 to 90 minutes for length of medical effects.
In 1978 his brother John formed the band The Blues Brothers with Dan Aykroyd, which spawned a famous movie in 1980. The band still plays live with Jim Belushi performing vocals under the name “Brother” Zee Blues.
In the mid-2010s Jim began growing cannabis on his property in Oregon. This was documented on the popular television show Growing Belushi, which has run for three seasons. According to Belushi Farm’s FAQ, a fourth season is not out of the realm of possibility. The show is available to stream on Hulu and Max.
Belushi’s Farm marijuana is now being sold in dispensaries across the United States. In Ohio, Belushi’s Farm cannabis is grown by Wondergrove (Ritegene Technologies) and is available at Bloom dispensaries. So far I have sampled four Belushi’s Farm strains: Muul Fuel, Hash Burger, Lemon Vuetton and Caddie Rainbowz.
The company isn’t currently listing terpene information on their packaging, but I detected heavy myrcene and some caryophyllene in the Muul Fuel. To me, the Hash Burger was lighter tasting, probably featuring limonene with some humulene or pinene in there. The Lemon Vuetton came strong with limonene and terpinolene vibes. All of the strains had significant earthiness to the taste as well, not in a good way.
For this review I am focusing on Belushi Farm’s Caddie Rainbowz flower. To my understanding, when a grower wants to name a cannabis strain in Ohio, they have to go through an approval process with the Division of Cannabis Control.
This governing body wants Ohio’s marijuana market to be tamer and less glorified than places like Michigan or California, so they insist on approving all strain names and packaging material. The DCC wouldn’t allow the strain name Cadillac Rainbows because of Cadillac being a trademarked word associated with motor vehicles. However, they approved the name Caddie Rainbowz.
According to Leafly, the Cadillac Rainbow strain is derived from a cross between Pure Michigan and Runtz. The Belushi’s Farm Caddie Rainbowz that I tried tested at 24.4% THC and had 0.0550% CBD.
The bud came packaged in an opaque white plastic jar that had a lid within a lid. I like the two-lid seal system, as it seems to keep the buds pretty fresh. None of the Belushi’s Farm flower that I have tried has been dry.
After opening that second lid I was hit with a pungent gassy aroma. I could smell sweetness, fruitiness and skunk. There were eight small, neatly-trimmed buds in the jar that weighed a total of 2.77 grams.
The buds were trimmed wonderfully. There were no stems to be seen.
There were a whole bunch of colors going on with this bud, including light green, dark green, purple, orange pistils and shiny trichomes. Since I couldn’t see the buds before buying, the outstanding jar appeal was a welcomed sight upon discovery.
The Caddie Rainbowz buds were dense and broke up with a bit of resistance through my grinder. There was no dust after breaking this stuff down. When shredded apart by finger it was a bit sticky and left some residue on my skin.
Packed bowl of Belushi
The Caddie Rainbowz burned pretty slow and ashed kind of dark. My joints had a bit of trouble staying lit but nothing the flick of a Bic couldn’t solve.
As far as the taste is concerned I noticed some earthiness but with further exploration I detected fruity and gassy notes. It’s also possible there was a good amount of linalool in there, as I seemed to get some floral flavors as well. If I had to guess, the top terps are probably myrcene, limonene and linalool.
This was the ash color
The medical effects were mild but noticeable, as I felt mellowed-out soon after consumption. To me, this was more of an indica-leaning hybrid.
After smoking the Caddie Rainbowz from Belushi’s Farm, I thought it scored a 5/10 for taste, 6/10 for harshness, 5/10 for strength, 7/10 for smell strength, and 30 minutes for length of medical effects.
Total THC 24.4% by weight. Delta-9 THC 0.215% (technically this bud could be considered hemp as it is under 0.3% Delta-9 THC), Delta-9 THCA 27.6%. Total CBD 0.0550%, CBDA 0.0627%.
Terpenes not listed.

Starting April 21st, 2025, the Division of Cannabis Control has altered the testing standards for THC and terpenes in marijuana.
No longer will moisture levels be accounted for during testing. What this means moving forward is that the listed THC and terpene percentages will be lower with flower, vapes and extracts. No need to fear, it’s still the same actual amount of THC and terpenes in the products, it’s just that the testing standards have changed which leads to lower readings.
This makes you wonder how consistent THC and terpene percentages are with testing labs across the nation. Would the exact same cut of cannabis test lower in Ohio than it would in Oregon? Would it test different for North Coast Analytical Laboratories than it would for Smithers Cannabis Testing Services?
While on the topic of accuracy, on cannabis packaging I often see the phrase “Actual THC percentages can vary by plus or minus ten percent”. So the flower that you are smoking that is supposedly 30% THC might actually only be 20% THC. In my opinion, with the right terpene profile and grow techniques, a 20% THC flower can actually hit stronger than a 30% THC strain that has low terps and a poor cure job.
This also makes you think that Ohio will now be able to offer more potent marijuana in general, which is a win for stoners. For example, something that would have formerly been deemed too strong to sell at 40% THC might now test at a passable level of 35% THC.
It’s kind of rare to see medicated cookies on Ohio marijuana menus. When I noticed Nectar was selling medicated snickerdoodles at 50% off, I figured this was a good chance to try some cookies. I liked how they were infused with RSO instead of regular distillate.

Chef Eric Braddock and his wife and partner, Chef Adrienne Novak (both veterans and award-winning culinary professionals) are taking edibles to the highest level of quality using superior ingredients like sweet cream butter, pure vanilla and their proprietary blend of certified gluten-free flours, carefully blended with the highest quality distillates using nanotechnology.
Their Exceptionally Righteous Infused Cannabis cookie and brownie bites are consistently dosed and baked to perfection for long-lasting relief without any trace of gluten or preservatives.”
The package contained two square-shaped cookies, each dosed at about 20mg of THC. One of them was very crumbled, the other was relatively intact.
This was the cookie that had suffered some crumbling inside the package.
They smelled sweet and sugary like you would expect a snickerdoodle to smell. They didn’t give off a cannabis odor.
When eaten, the Eric Squared RSO-Infused Snickerdoodles had the consistency of a soft brownie. The cookies were crumbly, probably because they were gluten-free. They tasted like cinnamon and sugar, just as you would expect a treat of this nature to taste.
During the chew I could detect the RSO, but it wasn’t very strong. It was nowhere near as intense as eating a glob of RSO on its own. There was a bit of a weedy aftertaste, but nothing I couldn’t handle.
Each of the cookies had a removable, edible sticker with the THC! warning logo.
I did not get any medical effects from these snickerdoodles, even after eating two of them. Maybe 40mg of RSO just wasn’t enough for me. I’d be interested to see how these cookies affect someone who reacts well to edibles.
I feel like if I ate 40mg of THC from RSO out of a syringe I would feel much more of a medical effect. I also keep in mind that with all legal RSO in Ohio, the THC cap is around 70%. True forms of medical RSO, seen in other states, have THC percentages that exceed 90%. I call our stuff “RSOhio”.
I gave the Eric Squared RSO-Infused Snickerdoodles a 7 for taste, 4 for harshness, 0 for strength, 5 for smell strength (they smelled like cookies, not weed) and 0 minutes for length of medical effects.
