    Pink Kitty is WAP (Cheetah Piss x Project 4516) x Zoap. The Zoap really shines through, this strain smells like every cut of Zoap I’ve ever had: A little sweet, a little fruity, and with this clean, almost fuzzy feeling. Please tell me someone understands what I’m saying with that? I get that it’s a weird way to describe a scent πŸ˜‚

    The flavor is a little sweet, with some spicy, floral earthiness. Very smooth smoke, with a nice taste that lingers on the tongue. The effects kick in immediately, starting in the head, killing any anxieties and getting me feeling good, euphoric, giggly and happy. This strain is giving me a very strong desire to create things, I couldn’t wait to get started filming this video. It’s a strong hybrid to me, overall very creative yet relaxed, calm and feeling great.

    The cure on the nugs is perfect, they all pass the squish test with flying colors. Nice and sticky, super resinous, milky white, full headed trichomes. This is some of the most beautiful bud out there! Very happy with this one.

  • How To Take Easy, High Quality Macro Photos Of Your Flower

    Whenever I get a new strain, one of my favorite things to do is take a whole photoshoot of it. I love using a macro lens for this, as it lets me see the flower in great detail. I really enjoy looking at the trichomes, and making sure there’s no visible mold or anything else that I don’t want to smoke. Here are a few examples of photos that have made people say “How are you taking these pictures?!”

    I’ll break down my process for taking these pictures in a few simple steps:

    1. Use a Macro Lens attachment for your phone. I got This Cheap Macro Lens, and I love it. It’s super simple, just snaps right on to your phone camera, and suddenly you can take amazingly close, detailed pictures of almost anything.
    2. Make sure your environment is well-lit. It will be basically impossible to take decent pictures if the lighting in your area isn’t great. I make sure to have my ceiling light on, and I also use This Hand-Held, Rechargable Light to make sure there’s a close light source as well. The sun is also a great option, if available.
    3. Clean your camera and lens attachment. These can easily get smudged, ruining the quality of all your pictures.
    4. Get close to the flower. You want the lens to be about 1-2 millimeters away from your subject. You’ll definitely see when it’s close enough.
    5. Focus, and take a lot of pictures. Always remember to tap your screen to get the object completely in-focus on your camera. In addition, I’ll take a bunch of pictures back to back, while moving the camera ever so slightly, just to make sure I get a bunch of good options to choose from.
    6. Enjoy your new macro photography hobby! Congrats, you’ve officially begun macro photography in the easiest, cheapest way I’ve found. If you’re anything like me, it will spawn an addiction!

    Hope this helps somebody. πŸ™‚
