    Lineage: The Soap x Velvet Runtz Originally bred by LIT

    Nose is nice and loud, kind of a unique scent. Sour, soapy, with a little citrus gas on the end. Cure is good, nice sticky buds, good looking trichomes. Nothing too special, but well done and grinds nicely.

    This one stands out as the most potent strain I’ve had in a very long time. To be clear, that includes legit dispensary flower, black market flower, & thca market flower. I frequently get to have all of the above, and this Fight Club has consistently been getting me SMACKED. More smacked than I have been in a long, long time, and this is every time I smoke it. It’s been a few days now, and it’s definitely just a very strong batch of this strain.

    It hits me like an almost even hybrid high, maybe a little sativa leaning. Starts cerebrally, immediately giving me a very euphoric rush of mental energy, right off the first exhale. I can feel it in my head, very similar to the old school headband strain, if you remember that from years ago. It hits like a sativa in that sense, yet I’m almost couch locked as well, which is a pretty fun and unique combo for a buzz.

    Great for video games, or maybe some artsy hobbies like painting or playing guitar. I want to say it’s great for a day off outside, but too many hits of this could easily be a day ender.

    If you’re sensitive to weed, this is not the one for you. This is the hardest hitting herb I’ve had in years. Be warned! Feels fantastic if you’re an experienced smoker, though!

  • 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. 🙂
