Wellspring Fields Project Red Indica Flower 24.2% THC: Quality Yields from Wellspring Fields

June 6th, 2025

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”.

I 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.

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!

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!

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.

Cookies Blue Raz 34.10% THC Indica Flower: High in Oh-High-Oh

February 1st, 2025

It had been several months since I’d been to Klutch’s Citizen dispensary in downtown Canton. Back when they had great prices on 510 carts and luster pods I was there quite often. Ever since recreational weed became legal in Ohio, Citizen got rid of the majority of their deals and raised the prices to $60 dollars a cart or pod and around $50 for a tenth. I hadn’t been back until now.

Within the past few weeks Klutch has released a series of strains in partnership with Berner’s Cookies brand. Some of the strains include Cheetah Piss, Blue Suede and That Badu. The one I went with was Blue Raz due to its high myrcene content and large amount of overall terpenes.

The flavorful Blue Raz is a cross between YD, E85 and Doggy Bagg. It was packaged in an opaque blue bag. The buds were not visible at all, not even through the bottom of the sack.

This is a hard to find strain at the moment!

As soon as I broke the seal and wrangled apart the childproof zip lock, I was hit with a pungent berry aroma. There was a refreshing sourness to the weedy smell. It was tangy but you could definitely detect a sweet fruity underlining. After one whiff I could tell this stuff was something I looked forward to smoking.

The tenth weighed 2.80 grams. After hearing that a friend’s Klutch Cookies bag weighed over 2.9 grams, I was hoping for a bit of a hookup. It was still pretty close to 2.83, and the nugs were nice, so it was what it was.

This flower looked stunning. I saw shades of deep green, orange and purple. There were lots of visible trichomes and very little stemmage. The buds were dense and broke down with elegance. The aroma was very strong and sweet upon breakup.

After running this stuff through the Flower Mill it was the perfect consistency for packing or rolling. When broken up by hand it stuck to my fingers and produced more smokeable flower than I expected.

It tastes as good as it looks!

It was refreshing to buy a tenth of bud that wasn’t dry. It seems like so much of the flower I’ve got from dispensaries lately has needed a drink of water. This is surely a factor when considering how slow the Blue Raz burned in both joint and bowl. Also, it ashed white when everything was said and done.

The Blue Raz tasted just like it smelled. The flavor almost reminded me of blackberries. It wasn’t so much of a blueberry taste as it was raspberry or blackberry. It was really unique! The sweet, skunky flavor lasted throughout the entire smoking experience. While it was heavy and powerful, the smoke was not harsh on the throat or lungs.

The medical effects were along the lines of a true indica. It was definitely strong and lasted over an hour. For me I did get a head high but I also felt medicated throughout the entire body. I became motivated to write this article and also produced a poem. While I’m a huge fan of sativas like Thai Kush, I also like heavier stuff such as this.

Akron Bloom employee Marshall told me that the Blue Raz almost made him feel weighed down, as if gravity had shifted. It was like his cheeks and body were being pulled downwards. Seeing how the flower has 21.70 milligrams per gram of myrcene and 5.24 milligrams per gram of linalool, I can see why this produced a heavy indica impact.

While I don’t plan on buying any more Cookies strains due to their price, it was worth it to get a tenth for review purposes. I enjoyed this flower and wish I could get more. I’d like to try the other Cookies strains as well. I might come across them some day, but for now I simply can’t pay $500 an ounce for marijuana.

I gave the Blue Raz from Cookies a 9 for taste, 3 for harshness, 9 for strength, 8 for smell strength and 60 or more minutes for length of medical effects.

Total THC 34.10%, Delta-9 THCa 37.30%, Delta-9 THC 1.37%, Total CBD 0.10%, CBDa 0.11%, CBD 0% (so I guess it’s all CBDa and not actual CBD until it is heated, where I suppose you’d lose 0.01% of the molecule to scorching).

Terpenes (mg/g): Myrcene 21.70, Linalool 5.24, Ocimene 4.82, Caryophyllene 2.03, Limonene 1.45, Humulene 0.76, Nerolidol 0.41.

Review of Klutch Sherbang #22 Hybrid Flower

September 21st, 2024

I have yet to sample some Klutch flower I didn’t like. They have many strains I haven’t tried. I view this as a research opportunity. I saw that tenths of their Sherbang #22 hybrid flower went on sale for 40% off, so I picked up a jar for review purposes. I didn’t get a chance to weigh it before my initial sampling.

According to this strain’s official website the lineage is Sunset Sherbet x HB. A strong, skunky OG marijuana odor is given off by these nugs. The closed jar could not contain the smell once the seal was initially opened. There is a sweet, almost blueberry hint to the smell that doesn’t quite translate through to the taste. To me, Sherbang #22 tastes dank and gassy.

This stuff was pretty sticky. It stuck to my fingers as I broke it up. THC residue remained on my fingers even after washing my hands. The flower held its own when run through a grinder, turning into a fluffy, malleable mixture of marijuana mash. It stuck to the teeth of my grinder and I had to use a titanium toothpick to get the chunks out.

Sherbang #22 burned with an acceptably slow speed in both bowl and joint. The ash was lightish gray in color. The flower itself was green with some yellowish tone and slight darker notes. Small orange pistils stuck to the bud. There was a tight trim with some slight stemmage throughout the nugs. It passed the squeeze test being a tiny bit spongy but respectably dense.

For taste I gave Sherbang #22 a 7 out of 10, 3 for harshness, 7 for strength, 8 for smell strength, and 60 minutes for length of medicinal effects. The strain felt like a middle of the road hybrid effect-wise and it was strong enough to where it gave me good pain relief. I would buy this strain again at the right price.

Total THC 29.80%, THCa 33.20%, Delta-9 THC 0.71%, CBD 0%.

There was detailed terpene info, not just the top 3 or 4 terps like you often see listed on labels. Terpenes (mg/g): Limonene 9.17, Caryophyllene 4.79, Linalool 2.92, Myrcene 1.92, a-Pinene 1.59, Humulene 1.51, b-Pinene 1.46, Fenchol 0.83, Terpineol 0.79, Ocimene 0.60, Bisabolol 0.50, Nerolidol 0.32.
