FLYT EDIBLES ARE MY SILVER BULLET
Written By Casey Renteria
I found several packs of micro-dosed edibles wrapped up sweetly in a drawstring bag. I’m embarrassed to admit I squealed like a kid in a candy store. I was hoping these would make a great companion to my morning coffee. The low dose really intrigued me. I was approaching these with let's say hopeful skepticism. That quickly changed a couple of hours later.
The Flower Mill Grinder: A Ganjier Review
Written By Rob Sanchez
“As we all know, the grinder is an essential piece of the cannabis consumer’s toolkit. From plastic to wood to steel with varying designs and complexity, a grinder does what it has always done, breaking down delicious trichome covered buds for consumption. As the cannabis industry has evolved, every aspect of the toolkit has as well, but what about the grinder? The only real innovation over the years has been the kief-catching screen and different shaped teeth or materials.
This is where the Flower Mill comes in. I've been using the Premium Stainless Steel Flower Mill along with the milling plate kit since Emerald Cup last year, and it has found a way into my regular kit these days. Aptly named with a cool flower/mandala logo and crispy clean packaging it “mills” instead of “grinds”, creating a very even product ready for rolling up. “
Herbie My (New) Love
Product Review By Casey Renteria
I like to think I’m an active person, at least four days out of the week. After working out, my back becomes so uncomfortably tight that it causes headaches, neck pain, and cramps. I take my self-care seriously, and one constant ordeal is tight muscles.
I love topicals for muscle recovery post-workout for this reason. I have found that it is a critical key in my recovery. Although I have so many lotions, potions, rubs, and balms I am still kind of picky about my topicals, since I use them multiple times a week.
One day, while doom scrolling on LinkedIn, I came across a post featuring Herbie Pain Balm. I knew right then and there, there wasn't a doubt in my mind, I wanted to get my hands on it. Or more like 'get it on me!

Loving Yourself Is As Easy As 1 2 3
Written By Casey Renteria
I have always reserved edibles for pain management. Well, I used to until recently; Having food allergies makes finding edibles I can eat almost impossible. This is why I was thrilled when I found Love You Three – discovering it was women-owned and operated was a bonus! After learning more about the brand, I was curious to see if these edibles would do more for me than just manage my pain.

Herban Bud: Product Review By Varsha Hyland
Review Written by Varsha Hyland
When the editors at Fat Nugs Magazine asked for a review of Herban Bud’s products, I was intrigued. I’ve tried THC and CBD, but this review was my first foray into hydrogenated and derivative cannabinoid products.
The products I received from Herban Bud included THCa flower and concentrate, as well as a disposable vape containing an oil blend consisting of an HHC base. The “Euphoria” vape contained THCp, followed by some THC-O, just enough THCjd, and "a dash of Delta-8."
Having only used CBD flower or oils as an alternative to THC when I was worried about getting drug tested for work, the Herban Bud haul was my first time experiencing a high from these alternative cannabinoids.
I Reached a New Level With Wyatt Purp
Written By Scarlet Weaver
When I saw the little square box from Wyatt Purp on my table, I may or may not have turned into a hyped-up toddler. I’m sure I was the most annoying person in the room, but hey, cannabis gets me excited. It might as well have been Christmas for me because the anticipation I had was unbearable. Alas, I am a grown adult, not a toddler, and I was ready for the sweet embrace of my old, familiar love. After my recent tolerance break, this package was much needed.
I’ll admit, at first sight I was extremely skeptical about how well any of these products would work. Coming from Alaska where cannabis is a way of life, I had never encountered hemp-derived D9. I know at times hemp gets a bad rap, but I was intrigued to say the least. Would this experience be the same as what I was used to? I am grateful to say that Wyatt Purp has left a great impression on me.
JAXON’s Premium Hemp/CBD Flower is an Impressive Addition to My Stash
Written by Kaitlin Coghill
The first thought that crossed my mind when I opened my box of JAXON Premium Hemp Flower CBD products was, “This is so ‘me’ and my unicorn.”
Unicorn? Yes, unicorn.
My unicorn and I have a vibe that’s luxe meets lax. Our chosen colors are black and gold (the same as JAXON’s packaging), and our inner essence is fresh, natural, healing and powered by the sun (the same as JAXON’s product). The unboxing experience that enabled this elaborate connection session was all so serendipitous, but there’s more to it than first impressions.
You see, a few weeks ago, my daughters asked me what my dream unicorn would look like so they could draw a portrait of us together. I told them it would be all black with streaks of shimmering gold, and it would be legal everywhere while still providing a shit ton of therapeutic benefits to all who cross its path. They mostly understood what I was saying and the portrait was beautiful.
At the time, we had no idea that a unicorn of this sort actually exists - but, much to my girls’ disappointment, it doesn’t resemble a horned horse. Rather, it resembles fat nugs of weed, provides full-body pain relief, cures insomnia and is federally legal. That ‘unicorn’ is JAXON’s Premium Hemp Flower, and it’s every bit as magical as it sounds.
