I think Fade Co. has found one of their loudest cultivars yet! LA Pop Rocks, a cross between Triangle Kush Bx2 and Z Animal, is one of those classic, super-dank, super-gassy varieties that can fill a room just by opening the bag. Fade Co. has cultivated some excellent Cannabis in Maryland, but their LA Pop Rocks variety is probably the loudest of loud flower to come out of their grow to date. Obviously we all love a jar pop that reveals a strong odor of whatever our favorite variety of Cannabis is, but you know when you open a bag and it’s not just a strong odor but a complete floor-to-ceiling saturation of the space you’re in? This is my experience with opening a bag of Fade Co.’s LA Pop Rocks.
Opening a bag of flower broadcasts the full spectrum of funky gas to every corner of my room, displaying the quintessential array of dank gas that is familiar and pleasant to old and new heads alike. In that milieu of fueled funk are hints and wafts of fruits and florals that display the layered nature of the LA Pop Rocks aroma. Generally speaking, any Cannabis variety that can fill a room with aroma is worth noting, but to have such a powerful presence as well as an iconic aroma profile is just something that has market-staple written all over it. If you’ve ever experienced a really dapper, dank, funky funk that seems uniquely old school and essential, then LA Pop Rocks will be a familiar friend.
Beyond the aroma profile, the strain is also one of the super-special, low-myrcene varieties that, in this case, lets us explore a limonene-linalool-dominant, caryophyllene-pinene-tempered variety — a rare treat indeed. For me, the experience creates a face and head high that instantly packs a classic stoney wallop with a strong sense of euphoric giggles. This balance of terpenes is worth exploring, and I would be very curious to see how lines of LA Pop Rocks might be bred out one day. Fade Co. really produced a flower that appeals to every type of Cannabis user in a way that truly captures all the senses this plant is capable of touching.
