It’s no secret that Klutch products are high-quality yet expensive. Before recreational sales became legal in Ohio, you could walk out of a Klutch Citizen dispensary with a 510 cart or luster pod for around $20. These days that will cost you between $35 to $50 before tax. Edit: A Klutch rep told me that in the next few weeks, price reductions are coming to all Klutch products at all Ohio dispensaries.

Most Klutch flower is sold in tenths, which at 2.83 grams is not a whole lot of weed. I’ve never seen a Klutch 5.66, and if you can actually find their stuff in a half ounce, prepare to pay.

This is why myself and others were glad to see Klutch release a budget-friendly line of flower called Habitat. The standard price for a Habitat tenth is $35, so if you can snag their stuff on sale, a tenth can cost under $30. At Klutch’s Northfield dispensary they recently had a deal for two Habitat Key Lime tenths, harvested four months ago, at $36. That is $180 for an ounce before tax.

A Klutch cultivation technician told me the Habitat bud is grown in the exact same manner as Klutch’s typical flower. I was interested to see if Habitat cannabis lived up to the Klutch standard, so I sampled a few tenths. First up was the Gasanova indica strain.

The Gasanova’s muted greed and orange packaging was opaque, so you couldn’t see the buds through the bag.

When I opened the baggie’s seal, I was hit with a strong, fresh smell of gas and green! The scent was clean, crisp and sweet. It definitely smelled like some Klutch flower, and not like budget bud. The tenth weighed 2.81 grams, just shy of the 2.83 grams that it should have been.

As you can see from the two pictures above, the flower had lots of green hues and darker shades of purple. There were oranges, yellows and shiny trichomes. There was a tight trim with minimal stemmage and zero sugar leaves. Not only that, the buds were dense, sticky and healthy. They didn’t turn to dust through a grinder.

Not only did the Habitat Gasanova burn slow but it ashed very light. It tasted exactly like it smelled! Along with the overwhelming gassiness and sweetness I tasted fruity undertones. There was a lot of great stuff going on with the taste of this pot.

I got strong indica effects from the Gasanova. The strain’s top terpene, Limonene, was accompanied by a healthy dose of Linalool, Myrcene, and Caryophyllene for pain relief and anti-inflammatory properties. This would be a great strain for someone looking for a powerful yet budget-friendly indica.

One of the Klutch cultivation techs told me the company determines sativa and indica based on plant structure, not terpenes.

I gave Habitat’s Gasanova an 8/10 for taste, 4/10 for harshness, 8/10 for strength, 9/10 for smell strength and 60 or more minutes for length of medical effects.

Total THC 27.80%, THCA 31.20%, Delta-9 THC 0.47%, Total CBD 0.11%, CBDA 0.12%.

Harvested 12/30/2024, tested 01/23/2025 by North Coast, packaged 04/04/2025, first consumed 05/01/2025, expires 12/30/2025.

Terps mg/g: Limonene 14.90, Linalool 5.71, Myrcene 2.59, Caryophyllene 2.51, b-Pinene 2.01, Farnesene 1.34, a-Pinene 1.20.

Next up was the Pine Berry Sorbet hybrid flower, gifted to me for my birthday by a good friend! Thank you! A friend with weed is a friend I need.

The Pine Berry Sorbet was packaged in the same type of bag as the Gasanova. The tenth clocked in a little overweight at 2.86 grams. It gave off an overwhelming scent of smooth pine and berry. It smelled fresh and floral.

Just like the Gasanova, the Pine Berry Sorbet had a professional-grade trim. The buds were nice and dense with an ideal moisture level. They broke down nicely by hand and behaved as expected when run through my Flower Mill.

The flower burned nice and clean, cooperating with the flame to fulfill its ultimate destiny. The flavor was distinct compared to the Gasanova. Pine Berry Sorbet had much more of a creamier taste to the smooth smoke.

For me, the piney flavor was front and center, which given the name isn’t surprising. However, when you look at the terpene profile, b-Pinene is somewhat low on the list. A-Pinene is not even contained in the listed terpenes.

The Pine Berry Sorbet didn’t give me as much of a body buzz as the Gasanova. It provided more balanced effects. After consumption I was able to get some meal prep done for the upcoming work week and do some other boring chores. The Pine Berry Sorbet turned the mundane into an intriguing game, and tasted great in the process.

After sampling the full tenth I gave this cannabis strain a 7/10 for taste, 4/10 for harshness, 7/10 for strength, 7/10 for smell strength and 60 minutes for length of medical effects.

Total THC 26.60%, delta-9 THCA 29.80%, Delta-9 THC 0.46%, total CBD 0.07%, CBDa 0.09%.

Harvested 03/19/2025, tested 05/07/2025 by North Coast, packaged 05/14/2025, first consumed 07/25/2025, expires 03/19/2026.

Terpenes mg/g: Limonene 7.12, Linalool 5.25, Myrcene 4.38, Caryophyllene 2.66, Farnesene 0.98, b-Pinene 0.97, Humulene 0.79.

After trying both of these Habitat offerings, I would recommend this brand of flower to those who love Klutch bud but don’t love Klutch prices. I will be keeping an eye out for new releases from Habitat. I will also be visiting the Northfield Citizen dispensary to grab two Key Lime tenths for $36!
