Grassroots Astro GMO Live Budder
The quintessential smell of GMO was busting out of this jar the second I unscrewed the lid. Astro GMO is a cross between GMO and Astro Boy, and the profile heavily leans on the GMO side of the spectrum. The consistency was just sticky enough to easily adhere to a dabber while maintaining the firmness you expect of a budder. The GMO nose prevailed on the exhale, and after a dab, I felt a deep wave of serenity come over me. I use this strain during moments of severe anxiety to bring me back down to earth.

Big Sur Holy Weed Sage Live Resin Batter
In Sunmed Growers’ partnership in Maryland with Belushi’s Farm, we got the full line of products from Jim Belushi’s Big Sur Holy Weed. This Sage live resin batter was gooey and coated with terpenes. As a terpinolene-heavy strain, you can expect hazy, fruit smoothie terps on the nose. The mouthfeel was peppery and hazy, and I felt uplifted and happy after taking a couple of dabs.

Rare Dankness is the creator of this strain, crossing Tangerine Kush with Somali Taxi Ride. The exhale brings out a blend of citrus and earthy, funky flavors that hit in waves. In my experience, most Tangie strains produce an oil that is a little on the darker side, but don’t let the color fool you — this is some fire.

Between the name of this strain and the more than 3.5% limonene in this batch, I knew a citrus bomb was incoming. Inside the black glass jar, a mound of budder is doused in a pool of terpenes that reside around the edges. I like to grab a little bit of the budder from the middle and give it a tiny touch in the terpene moat. The smell and flavor of this concentrate reminded me of oranges with a Chem-like aftertaste.

Notes of pine, musk and gasoline instantly filled the room and my nostrils with the best of smells. The consistency of this batter is juicy, making each dab worth savoring. Shining a flashlight reveals microcrystals and terpenes glistening and dancing. Motorbreath is most certainly for veteran smokers, as the effects, for me, were hefty and sent me off to sleep.

Eden Solventless Bone Apple Teet + JMO 2g Rosin Thumbprint
Upon opening the jar, I was greeted with what looked like a sunny-side-up egg. The outer layer of JMO (GMO x Jealousy) offers a saucy consistency with the inner “yolk.” Bone Apple Teet (Apple Fritter x Milk Bone) adds complexity to this stellar mashup. The 2-gram jar is extremely visually appealing and provides you with the option to pick your dab or mix them. Combining these two petrol powerhouses hits me with a one-two punch, surely providing full body relief and relaxation. This is a one-hitter quitter, but it still keeps you coming back for more.

Combining Z1.0 (Zkittlez) and Guava Cream 5, this unique profile offers a little bit of everything, including creaminess, Candy notes, a tropical fruit quality and a hint of Gas. This mouth-staining profile is what I would describe as a desert island terp, something you could dab forever and never get tired of.

FECO/RSO
Grassroots Mimosa x Kush Mints RSO Dropper
An RSO runner-up in the 2026 Maryland Leaf Bowl’s Concentrates category, Grassroots RSO has been a favorite of Maryland patients for years. One thing I love about RSO is how accurately it allows you to dose your THC intake. It also has multiple applications in addition to the traditional method of eating it. You can use RSO to make gummies and other edibles, as well as mix it with coconut oil and apply it topically for severe pain. I find the sweet spot with Grassroots’ RSO to be around 0.1 grams.

I typically use this unique sativa RSO during the daytime, unlike most RSOs, which are my go-to for a solid night’s sleep. I found the effects to be uplifting, which helps me focus during busy work days. The dominant terpene in this RSO is limonene, which has been known to be more of an energetic-expressing terpene profile. This also contains 1.4% beta-caryophyllene, which stimulated my appetite, making it even more of a daytime-use product.

The terpene profile shone through and left a pleasant flavor of beta-caryophyllene in my mouth. With a dose of CBG in the mix, I tend to use this when my stomach is having issues.

Black Label is an MPX product line that features distillate vapes and botanical terpenes. I had the pleasure of trying the Sunday Brunch and Durban OG cartridges, both of which tasted delightful. I prefer the Sunday Brunch due to its higher level of myrcene, nearly going as high as 3%. For me, a terpene like myrcene is so important for being able to get my brain into a relaxed and restful state.

Good Green Bananaconda Pen
Discreetly packing 2 grams of live resin into a modern-looking vape device, Good Green is becoming more popular in Maryland by the day. Limonene is the dominant terpene in this batch, and the exhale creates a more complex profile of cake and limes. Crossing Snake Cake with Dual OG #4 created Bananaconda, a strain that almost always gets me in a silly and uplifting mood.

Super Fog by Mfused Notorious THC Tank
A part of Super Fog’s Loud line, the Notorious THC — which combines Ghost of Von Humboldt, Caramel Cream and Humboldt Frost — is the dessert flavor profile. The device features, in order from lowest to highest temperature, a flavor saver mode, a big clouds mode and a blaze mode. Taste-wise, this is a true dessert profile with a sweet, gassy exhale. After taking a few puffs on flavor savor mode, my head went to a sleepier place, making this one perfect for right before bed.

Super Fog by Mfused Acapulco Gold All-In-One
Citrusy and earthy would be the best way to describe the flavor profile of this disposable. At over 3% limonene, the myrcene and beta-caryophyllene sit in the background, while the citrus steals the show. With a cold start feature on all Super Fogs, you can get the pen heating up and achieve a better flavor than with traditional vapes. I found myself coming back to this strain for daytime use, as it gave me a clear-headed and energetic buzz.

Cheetah Pungent Smile and Garlic Grove Live Resin Disposables
The first thing that strikes me about these vapes is the cheetah print design on the uniquely colored lime green and espresso brown backgrounds. The Pungent Smile (AK-47 x Purple Punch) vape came in a 2-gram disposable, making this long-lasting and easy to use. In terms of effects, the Pungent Smile gave me a sharp burst of focused energy. I felt a buzz, but I was dialed in on the task at hand. The Garlic Grove (Garlic Cookies x Mandarin Sunset) came in a 1-gram disposable and was a bit on the more relaxing side, putting me into a comfortable and chill state.

District Cannabis Super Silver Dawg, Cherry Chem and Lemon Royale Liquid Diamonds and Sauce Cartridges
Diving into the liquid diamonds and sauce carts from District Cannabis, I tried the Super Silver Dawg, Cherry Chem and Lemon Royale. When smoking carts, a little liquid live resin goes a long way in terms of flavor. My favorite of the three was the Lemon Royale, which is a combination of Lemon Tree and (GMO x Triangle Kush). The result is a sharp citrus flavor with funky undertones that left me feeling in a creative mood.

District Cannabis Spritzer, Pavé and Cherry Limeade Cake Live Resin Cartridges
I had the pleasure of trying Spritzer, Pavé and Cherry Limeade Cake live resin cartridges. The Spritzer cartridge had a strong citrus flavor that filled my mouth as soon as I ripped the pen. The Pavé was a little bit more on the earthy side, and the Cherry Limeade Cake fell right in between the middle of the other two. These cartridges, like all of District’s products, were very potent and reliable.

An indica-dominant hybrid strain, Gastro Pop crosses Apples & Bananas with Grape Gas. The flavor is fruit-forward, and in live resin form, that expression is brought out to the fullest.
