I picked this up from Bavarian Pharmacy at 4.99 a gram, counting the search for good bud under 5. I have seen and read a lot about this strainx but never took the plunge for some reason. Well kids I'm glad I did lol 🤣

The bag appeal is right on the money with a great mix of large and smaller buds, and the residual moisture is perfectly dialed in with a nice squish and bounce. Seriously nice deep green buds. I enjoyed the way it broke up and rolled up.

Upon opening the jar, I got hit in the face by beautiful, pungent sour gas and doughy terps, showing that the profile was loud and fully present in action. The nose on this is amazing, leading with a very rich, sweet pastry profile that's balanced out by nothing but heavy fuel undertones. Trurly tastry experience for my pallet.

The experience of smoking it in a joint is buttery smooth from start to finish. On the inhale, the palate gets hit with a very crisp, clean doughiness mixed with heavy sour gas notes. It just tasted incredibly good. The exhale shifts into a creamy, classic diesel finish that leaves a sweet, gassy aftertaste lingering on your tongue. To make matters even better, the trim was clean with zero stems to pick out before rolling. I did not find any mirco seeds in my batch.

Man, the high was outstanding. It completely caught me off guard because even though I was expecting a lot after that flavor profile, it still blew me away. It hits you with a heavy, deeply relaxing body stone that melts away tension and leaves you totally glued to the couch. It completely zones out your brain in the best way possible. My fiancee found it deeply relaxing and wonderful for her pain management.

I am deeply impressed with what I have found for under 5 euro search. This offering from Pedanios speaks volumes in that regard. I highly recommend this strain to anyone that enjoys a euphoric stone but with some bite.

Happy Smoking everyone!

A heavy hitter at 4.87 a gram from Asavita Pharmacy. It definitely feels like a campfire in the head!

Campfire Kush

Crossing: OG Kush × San Fernando Valley OG

I was greeted with a classic earthy, kush diesel aroma and some pine, with a lovely citrus and herbal undertones. The buds were Medium sized, residual moisture was on point. I did not find any mircos, if there were tbh at this price point, it's to be expected.

In the joint The Flavor in the inhale is a sharp slap of fuel and chemical funk. The exhale relaxes into a more dignified profile of savory cedar wood, pepper, and rich, dark soil. A truly wonderful OG experience.

The high is the star for me. It begins with an immediate wave of euphoria and stress relief. It provides a fantastic mood elevation, though the head stone is decidedly hazy. To be clear, this is not an energetic Sativa haze that inspires you to clean the kitchen; it’s a heavy fog that leaves you feeling pleasantly numb.

As the high transitions, deep physical relaxation takes over and the couch becomes your absolute best friend. It gets profoundly tranquil, so do yourself a favor and make the bed before you spark up, because you won't have the motor skills to do it later. It is an absolute dream for pain management.

As my fiancee said.... "There's a Campfire in my head! 🔥 🔥

Overall, I am thoroughly impressed. Between this and Donny Burger, we have two legitimate "Bud of the Year" contenders in the under-€5 category.

Pro Tip: If you are feeling brave, mix the two together. I did, and it resulted in a beautifully spaced-out, borderline-interstellar high.

Happy smoking, everyone!✌️🫠🤘 🚬

If you're into GMO, then this Burger is for you! A truly wonderful GMO cross for $4.29 a gram from Asavita Pharmacy. It's definitely one of my favorites for the "under $5 a gram" hunt.

I was greeted with a pleasant scent of subtle fruit and candy, which, to be honest, completely tripped me out. I was expecting a punch to the face from a garlic clove, but it almost smelled like I got a Sativa instead. It is my understanding that the Phenotype Lottery is the reason cannabis seeds can be siblings but share a different phenotype, producing sharper citrus or berry notes. That is definitely what's happening here—Genetics are wild. The buds were a good size, and the residual moisture was on point. I didn't come across any micro-seeds or full seeds, which is always a massive win at this price point.

In the joint, all the GMO glory comes through! I can taste the garlic and black pepper notes, with those wonderful citrus notes hiding underneath. The smoke was thick and creamy—absolutely loved it. The garlic notes really linger in your mouth afterward, so maybe skip this right before a date.

The effects were truly another GMO highlight. It starts with a fast-acting, euphoric head lift that makes you quite giggly and engaged in conversation—or, in my case, chasing around Merlin for an hour. 😹 Afterward, the Indica sets in heavy (especially in larger doses). It transforms into a warm, hazy body stone and just pure stoney bliss while enjoying some Netflix. I recently saw Godzilla Minus One/Minus Color on Netflix (man, what an instant Kaiju classic). By the time the movie ended, my bed was calling my name.

I'm absolutely pleased with its performance and taste. It's going to be an interesting one for some; you get that lovely, Sativa-like scent, but once you light it up, the GMO magic is absolutely there.

Happy smoking, everyone!

Ps: He did his best Joker impression, not bad for a Cat. 😹

I had a lovely end of August time in the Garden today. Running and barking up the world! Boy am I pooped! I hope everyone enjoys time with family and friends!

A classic strain from Asavita Pharmacy at just coming under 5 euro and 4.96 a gram. In this economy, that's practically a public service!

I was greeted with that traditional Pink scent of earthy diesel and fuel with herbal undertones and some lovely citrus freshness giving that touch of "pink" kush identity. That old familiar pungent scent that immediately takes me back to the simpler, much sketchier times of my youth 🙂. Overall the buds were medium sized and to my absolute shock, they had very good residual moisture—no "Aurora dust" here.

In the joint you get that peppery, earthy kush vibe. On the exhale, a nice sweet, creamy, citrus finish which comes from the pink side of the strain. Very lovely, absolutely classic.

The effects again begin with a wonderful onset of euphoria that gets very stoney, Esp smoking a big, financially irresponsible joint like I did lol. A nice calmness comes over your being. You have a nice window of this wonderful effect, before she drags you down in that lovely Indica couch lock but leaving u able to enjoy a good movie or show before the eyes get heavy.

I was hesitant at first at purchasing this strain because in Canada this company Aurora and their San Rafael '71 was hit or miss for me—it was a total casino. Though I was pleasantly surprised to see they have been much better Received lately. I said to myself if they fuck this up then they are dead to me forever!

They did not!

Happy Smoking everyone.

The search for a great strain under five euros continues, and this strain def gives David a run for his money....!

Upon opening it, I was greeted by a pleasant, pungent aroma featuring notes of sour citrus, spice, and diesel. Underneath, there is a chemical gas note that tickles the nose with an almost mint-like freshness. The buds look nice overall, and the residual moisture is spot on. At this price point, I fully expected them to be dry, so the perfect moisture level was a definite bonus.

Smoking it in a joint, I noticed a nice, sweet berry flavor paired with sharp citrus notes. The exhale brings a lovely blend of pungent pepper, earthy diesel, and herbal Kush notes, and you can definitely taste the Gorilla Glue heritage in this strain. The joint burned beautifully, but if you smoke it in a wood pipe, these flavors become much more accentuated. I highly recommend using a quality wood pipe for this one!

The effects begin with a wonderful mental boost that delivers a clean Sativa energy. It quickly pushes away stress and anxiety, leaving you in a fantastic headspace. From there, the high transitions smoothly into the body, bringing a warm, euphoric, and relaxed sensation. The couch-lock is moderate, making it absolutely perfect for kicking back and watching Rick and Morty. Plus, my fiancée found it highly effective for her pain management.

All in all, the price-to-performance ratio is absolutely incredible. It is great to see budget offerings like this that easily rival strains priced at seven or eight euros.

Merlin absolutely agrees and says hello to everyone! Happy smoking, everyone.

Yabba dabba Do! A lovely gem at 4.99 a gram from Asavita Pharmacy. Just barely qualifying for the under 5 euro search lol. I had my eye on so decided to give the strain a try. I'm glad I did!

I was greeted with with a pleasant scent of candy and berries and bit of citrus zesty undertone. Quite lovely. The buds were lovely in person, the residual moisture was excellent.

When burned In the joint I can taste the berries, and some zesty sugary flavour. On the exhale you get that creamy cereal milk quality on your tounge. A pleasant smoking experience.

The effects were an outstanding Hybrid Experience. This is where it truly shines. It's unique genetic Cross of Green Ribbon x Grand Daddy Purple x Tahoe Alien(Alien Kush) are the reason why. The high begins as an energetic, euphoric high that completely washes away any stess and anxiety. The Green Robin being responsible for most of that sativa energy, and part of the hybrid experience.

After an hour the deep relaxation settles into the body and mind, but not leaving you completely couch locked or super dazed, but leaves u winding down. This where the Indica phase begins, brought on by the Grand Daddy Purple and Tahoe mints good for a movie, hanging with Merlin and the wife.

All in all maybe the best Hybrid Strain under 5.

Merlin says Hello!

Happy Smoking everyone.

I just wanted to say I've seen some epic pic of the stars here recently. The one thing I've noticed, most don't mention their part of the world. U don't need to be exact, but it would be nice to know where ppl are taking pics. For eg Im from Toronto Canada. Thanks!

Well the heat as subsidied, so I went to the garden and Ran around like a mad women, barking at the world! I got a lil dirty and momma gave me a bath. It's ok I love bath time! My naps sure felt great after! 😂🐶😁. Wishing everyone a wonderful time with family and friends.

Another interesting strain at 3.99 a gram From Grastheke Neuss Pharmacy.

Its hard to tell but the bud is def oranged out a bit, so def a lil older of a batch I would assume. That being said, the residual moisture was on point.

Also to be clear this is not ice cream cake. I have seen ICC listed as Cream cake. This is a cross between Creamsicle x Pancakes bred from Tiki Madman.

I was greeted with a pleasant scent a sweet cake like scent, that had some suagr notes as well. I can also pick up a nice gas and a slight Earth undertone. Glad the terps were active.

In the joint, the Inhale you get that Creamsicle flavour, a zesty citrus flavour, my wife desbrices more of an orange flavour in that regard. The exhale is pure pepper/gass and savoury herb taste, finsihing off with a classic kush taste to my platte. Lovely and classic flavour for me personally.

The effects were great. Started off as a nice euphoric rush and mood elevation that you can feel behind eyes and temple. After an hour or so the Indica pulls u down, leaving u nicely couch locked, but very relaxed, excellent for a movie or hanging out. I found it good to sleep as well.

All in all I personally enjoy it even though I think it's bit of an older batch. Smoked well and great effects for its price point.

Happy Smoking everyone.

The strains for under 5 journey has lead me this lil gem at 4.25 a gram from Asavita Pharmacy.

I was greeted with an Interesting herbal tone that was also a bit minty but and it def had a soap/floral scent. Wasn't very overpowering but def noticeable to my nose.

In the joint I got a pleasant creamy and herbal and bit of a sweet note in the Inhale. Exhale is a bit of Spicey pepper, with a touch of menthol. Not bad but not amazing if your a flavour chasers, but def had a kush vibe.

The effects again for me personally is what I look for. This lil bud packed a nice quality punch. Brings on a wonderful mood elevation. My wife was cracking up a lot lol. It def brings a bit if a sativa energy in that regard. That slowly melts into a nice Indica lock, that can be a heavy couch lock if a large amount is consumed. Relaxes the body and keeps the mind stress free. Did well for my wife's pain management.

All in all it brought some nice summer vibes while smoking it out doors in our garden.

Merlin the Grey says Hello to All!

Happy Smoking everyone.

I had a great morning chasing my lil brother around and barking at everything that moved when I went to the garden with Mom and dad. Well I'm pooped! Time for nap number 7! 🐶🤣 Wishing everyone a wonderful Sunday with Family and friends.

The search for under strains under 5 euro has lead me to Space Cowboy from Bavarian Pharmacy at 4.79 and from Asavita Pharmacy at 4.64.

I have purchased Bathera version of Factez before and absolutely loved it, this version from Demecan is absolutely on par. I have reviewed bathera previously, so I'm not going to go to much into into here. Both are excellent. Pics 2 and 3.

Apologies for just 1 pic of the Space Cowboy Pic 1. I accidentally deleted the others.

I was greeted with a bit it skunk and lemon and some earthy notes. Nothing to pungent but def can pick it up. The residual moisture was ok, not very dry as it make seem in the pics, but wasn't tops. The buds were the prettiest either but def ok lol. The taste is joint gave a bit of a sour, pine taste with the exhale was a herbal spice and diesel undertone. Not to bad but not a game changer.

The effects are def where it shines, it brings on a rush of eurpohia that transforms into a hazy stone afterwards . It does bring on couch lock in higher dose. My wife found it great for sleep.

All in all a good try but not my favorite.

Happy Smoking everyone.

He's 16 weeks old now. He was about 5 weeks when he found him with his 2 other siblings. We found them homes 15 mins after we rescued them. That was heart warming. Merlin is a sweet boy, well behaved, though he still gets into kitty mischief! He came to me in a very difficult time, and as always God sends angels when they are needed in one's life.

Wishing everyone a wonderful day and time with friends and family. I had a nice time with mom and dad. Tonite I'm getting my fav dinner! Turkey!

A very "Nice" offering at 3.85 a gram. The search for under 5 euro has been plenty fruitful for me since I've come to Germany in Sept.

I was greeted with a pleasant scent of sweet and earthy, spice notes. I could also pick up a herbal mint underneath.

In the joint a creamy, sweet flavour touches your tounge which is quite pleasant, on the exhale you taste the Spicey pepper along with a cool menthol taste, with a bit of that kush finish. The joint burned well, white peppery ash.

The effects were right up my alley. The high settles Into a lazy euphoria which brings a bit of a haze to the mind, lifting you from anxiety or racing thoughts. If you consume a smaller amount, it gives u a nice boast, not too much couch lock. On the other hand, a larger dose, brings on the couch lock and munchies! Leaving you nicely stoney! Absolutely loved the effects.

This def makes my top 10 under 5 euro hands down.

I'm curious to hear from the community, which strains they like under 5 euro mark?

Also any recommendations on good, fast shipping, reasonable DHL prices pharmacies I should check out? So far I've been using Asavita, Bavarian and Grastheke Neuss. All 3 are very good but sometimes Bavarian has delays etc.

Happy Smoking everyone!

I hope everyone is doing well and having a wonderful time with family and friends! Today I did the usal, barked at the world! And ran around the garden barking at... Well, the world! 🐶🐕

As I continue my search for stains under 5 euro I came across this Gem. It was 4.29 a Gram from Grastheke Neuss Pharmacy.

Absolutely pleased with its performance at this price point.

I was greeted with with a pleasant scent of a sweet candied citrus aroma that boarderd on grapefruit/lemon, breaking it up releases a bit of pungent gas. Lovely. In the joint I got a mild citrus taste with soft floral that was very smooth and tastey to my platte. The exhale provides a more woody, herbal flavour. The joint burned well.

The effects for me is where is shines! It comes in a a deep euphoric sedation, but it doesn't destory you lol, it leaves u happy and super chill. After a while it becomes a floaty, spacey high that is wonderful to chill and play some music. I understand why they call it Space Rider 🤣. As a strong Indica, it doesn't make u dull or drowsy at all. That was a highlight. It can be used for a lazy afternoon or evening. My fiancee said it did wonders for her pain. Great for treating anxiety.

This is def a top 5 for me for under 5 euro. I'll absolutely always order it. It's great to find an Indica like this that doesn't dull u out. Though I do love that part of smoking Indicas lol.

Happy Smoking everyone!

Merlin says Hello!

I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the summer weather. I like napping on mom and dad's bed, but I need help getting up, cuz my legs are Chihuahua sized!

A classic strain. If you know you know!

I bought it for 3.57 a gram from Grastheke Neuss , continuing my experiment of trying strains under or around 5 euro. I was again teleported back to the 90s as I was with the UK Cheddar Cheese!

I was greeted with that Spicey, earthy kush scent, which was accompanied by a citrus undertone and pine. Again just a classic scent. Residual moisture was great, broke up wonderfully and rolled up well.

In the joint I could take the Kush, and it delivered the classic og taste, on the exhale you can taste the peppery, gas. I loved it personally.

The high shines just as much. A pure stone that brings on the euphoria and deep body stone after a while. Totally relaxed me and brought on some serious munchies! My fiancee found it wonderful for pain management and for sleep.

If you like classic strains, this is a must try. It's always gonna be buy for me.

Happy Smoking everyone!

Merlin says Hello and appreciates all the love!
