SUMMARY | 9.1 OVERALL SCORE |
I recently came across the chance to try a few PUF cartridges, one Indica (Critical Cure) and one Sativa (Strawberry Cough). I picked them up at a local dispensary. Best yet, they were on sale for $15.00 each!
Pros:
- Good price
- Smooth taste
- Easy to assemble
Cons:
- It made me cough more than normal
- Plastic packing is not easy to open
- Slightly burnt taste only ½ way thru
Recommendations: None
Good price
From a price point of view, this cartridge is a good value. The THC was at 86% (both) so I gave each vape one drag, on two different days, to see how the high was on each day. Both provided a lovely feeling within moments of that puff or PUF, if you will. Being more of an Indica person, I gravitated towards that one, and I found that 3 pulls in 5 min were good for about 3 hours of a nice high. Nice head high, feeling light and time passed fast (as a rule I set timers.) As a regular cannabis user, I find that some products make me go back again and again as the high wears off quickly. So, the value is lost in over. all use. However, I found this inexpensive vape cartridge to be of great value.
The taste of each cartridge was different indeed
The Indica (Critical Cure) had a subtle sweet taste with a hint of Limonene mixed with a hint of pepper which is from the caryophyllene. The aftertaste was more of mediacies taste to it which was not unpleasant. I would get this cartridge again if it’s available. Best value for me! Real nice head high. I’ll be looking for this one again and may even stock up and get a few.
The Sativa (Strawberry Cough) did just that, made me cough after every pull. Small pull, 5 min of coughing. Big pull, 20 min of coughing. Okay so I exaggerate a little, but sure felt that way. The high from this one however was euphoric, with a hint of positivity. It was also long-lasting and pleasant, no paranoia here. A little ruff for my lungs, but I’ll have this one for a while. So, the name is more of a warning. Now I don’t mind a cough, usually, if something makes me cough, I back down my pull, this however made no difference. The taste of this one surely had a fruity berry taste. Sweet indeed, I liked it a lot. As for any aftertaste, I’m not sure as it was gone well before I’d stopped coughing. The buzz was as expected and did last a few hours before needing another 3 pulls. But those 3 pulls took me an hour of my day (coughing in between.) I’ll not be picking this one up again.
Length they lasted me
As I smoke/vape all day every day, for this product I set everything else aside to see how long 2 vape cartridges would last me. I found that after the first 24 hours I was about ½ way on the Indica and barely touched the Sativa. Three days in and the Indica was gone and the Sativa was ½ was gone. The cough factor actually made me slow down my usage for the next two days. So, after 5 days of use, I’d run out and felt that for the money spent, great value indeed!
Replace flower for me?
As a person who has used cannabis for some time now, I’d like to say that none of the vape cartridges are great for the environment. I try to keep my personal usage to more flower as it’s the most familiar, sustainable, and versatile. That said, as I live blocks away from Freemont Street in Las Vegas, smoke is not the best way to go, so I’ll take a vape with me to walk the streets and feel safe that I’m not drawing the wrong kind of attention to myself. In conclusion, I’d get this brand again.
