They’re holding up well so far, but three months is too early for me to call them BIFL.
I’m posting now because daily wear is where I usually start noticing whether a tee is actually worth rebuying. I’ll update again if the fabric, collar, or seams change over a longer stretch.
For anyone who owns them longer term: what failed first, if anything?
Hi, we’re Pixie’s Pantry 🌿 Meet our current flower lineup — all 11 strains.
Hey y’all! We’re Pixie’s Pantry, and instead of just dropping a bunch of flower photos with strain names and expecting everyone to know what they’re looking at, I wanted to actually introduce this week’s lineup.
We currently have 11 different THCA flower strains, ranging from old-school piney and citrus-forward profiles to creamy fruit, candy, berry, gas, and dessert strains.
If you’re curious about any of them, ask us questions. We’re happy to talk about aroma, flavor, genetics, COAs, appearance, or help you compare strains.
Here’s the full lineup:
🌲 CHEM LIGHTS — SATIVA
Chem Lights is for the people who still appreciate that unmistakable old-school cannabis profile.
This one leans earthy, piney, citrusy, and funky, rather than sugary-sweet. Crack into the flower and you’re met with that sharper Chem-style aroma layered over fresh greenery and pine.
If most of the modern candy strains sound too sweet for you, start here.
Profile: Earth • Pine • Citrus • Chem Funk
Best description: Sharp, green, classic, and aromatic.
🍹 FRUIT PUNCH — SATIVA
Fruit Punch is basically the name brought to life.
This is one of the brighter, fruitier selections in the drop, with tropical fruit, sweet berry, citrus, and a little earthiness underneath.
It’s colorful, sweet-smelling, and much more fruit-forward than something like Chem Lights or Jack Herer.
If you open the menu looking for something that sounds like summer, this is it.
Profile: Tropical Fruit • Berries • Citrus • Sweetness
Best description: Bright, juicy, fruity, and tropical.
🌿 JACK HERER — SATIVA
A classic deserves a spot next to all these modern dessert strains.
Jack Herer has a completely different personality from the candy-heavy flower that dominates menus today. Expect a more traditional combination of pine, herbs, earth, wood, and spice.
It’s aromatic without needing to smell like a bag of candy.
If you’re an old-school flower person, this is one of the first strains I’d point out.
Profile: Pine • Herbs • Wood • Spice
Best description: Classic, herbal, crisp, and unmistakably Jack.
🍊 ORANGE PUSH POP — INDICA-DOMINANT
This might be the easiest strain in the whole lineup to describe:
Orange creamsicle.
Orange Push Pop combines bright orange and citrus notes with a softer creamy, vanilla-like sweetness underneath.
It’s one of those strains where the name actually gives you a pretty good idea of what you’re getting.
If citrus strains and dessert strains had a baby, it would look something like this.
Profile: Orange • Citrus • Cream • Vanilla Sweetness
Best description: Creamy orange sherbet in flower form.
🍊🍬 ORANGE RUNTZ
Orange Runtz takes the candy-style profile people associate with Runtz and pushes it in a much more citrus-heavy direction.
Expect sweet orange, fruit, cream, and candy-like notes, with just enough earthiness underneath to keep it from smelling one-dimensional.
If you want fruit but Fruit Punch sounds too tropical, this is the sweeter citrus option.
Profile: Orange • Sweet Fruit • Cream • Candy
Best description: Orange candy with a creamy finish.
🥜🍑 PEANUT BUTTER APRICOT — HYBRID
This is probably one of the weirdest-sounding strains on the menu — and I mean that as a compliment.
Peanut Butter Apricot combines sweet stone-fruit character with nutty, creamy, cookie-like and slightly funky/gassy notes.
It isn’t straight fruit.
It isn’t straight dessert.
And it isn’t straight gas.
It sits somewhere in the middle of all three, which makes it one of the more interesting profiles in the current lineup.
Profile: Apricot • Nutty Cookie • Cream • Sweet Gas
Best description: Fruity, nutty, creamy, and weird in the best possible way.
🍬🪐 PLUTO CANDY — HYBRID
Pluto Candy is one of our straight-up dessert selections.
This flower has a sweet, berry-forward, candy-like profile with a smoother finish rather than the sharp pine or herbal notes you’ll find in some of the classics.
It’s also one of the strains where we’d rather describe the flower we actually have than make up a dramatic genetic backstory we can’t verify.
What we can tell you is what’s in front of us:
Pretty flower. Sweet aroma. Berry candy personality.
Profile: Berry • Candy • Sweet Fruit • Smooth Finish
Best description: Dessert flower for the candy-strain crowd.
🍭 ROCK CANDY — INDICA-LEANING
Rock Candy sounds like it should be nothing but sugar, but there’s more going on here.
The sweetness is definitely present, but underneath it you’ll find citrus, herbs, earth, and a little gas/funk.
That gives Rock Candy more depth than some of the straight fruit strains.
This is a good one for somebody who wants sweetness without losing that unmistakable cannabis character.
Profile: Candy • Citrus • Herbs • Gas
Best description: Sweet up front, funky underneath.
🍬 RUNTZ — HYBRID
You probably already know this name.
Runtz earned its reputation because its profile genuinely does lean toward fruit candy, creamy sweetness, and dessert-like flavor.
Our current flower also carries some floral and pine character underneath the sweetness, which keeps the profile from being completely one-note.
If somebody tells us, “I like sweet strains but I don’t know what I want,” Runtz is an easy place to start the conversation.
Profile: Fruit Candy • Cream • Floral • Pine
Best description: The modern candy classic.
🍓🍌 STRAWNANA — HYBRID
Strawnana — aka Strawberry Banana — is exactly the soft, fruity profile you’d expect from the name.
This one brings together strawberry and berry sweetness with creamy banana-like fruit notes, plus a little citrus and floral character.
Compared with the sharper citrus strains, Strawnana feels much softer and creamier aromatically.
If you could turn a strawberry-banana smoothie into a flower profile, you’d be pretty close.
Profile: Strawberry • Banana • Cream • Berry
Best description: Strawberry-banana smoothie vibes.
🍋🌲 XJ-13 — HYBRID
Last but absolutely not least: XJ-13.
This is another one for people who like brighter, more traditional profiles.
XJ-13 brings lemony citrus and pine to the front, with sweet herbs, floral notes, and spice underneath.
Put it beside Strawnana or Pluto Candy and the difference is obvious — this isn't trying to smell like dessert.
It’s crisp, citrusy, piney, and complex.
Profile: Lemon Citrus • Pine • Sweet Herbs • Spice
Best description: Bright citrus and pine with an old-school Haze personality.
If you like:
🍭 Candy/Sweet: Runtz, Pluto Candy, Rock Candy
🍓 Fruit: Fruit Punch, Strawnana
🍊 Citrus: Orange Push Pop, Orange Runtz, XJ-13
🌲 Pine/Earthy: Chem Lights, Jack Herer
🥜 Something completely different: Peanut Butter Apricot
And if you genuinely have no idea what any of those descriptions mean, ask.
You can tell us something as simple as:
“I like fruity flower.”
“I hate anything that smells like gas.”
“I want something citrusy.”
“I usually like old-school strains.”
“What’s the difference between these two?”
We’d much rather have an actual conversation about the flower than throw strain names at people and expect everyone to already speak cannabis.
We can also share batch information and COAs when you want to dig into the details.

If you are in hemp, smoke-shop, glass, accessories, distribution, or another cannabis-adjacent/high-risk industryand you're being affected by the Square shutdown next month:
CALL TASKER PAYMENT GATEWAY.
Tasker Payment Gateway
207-772-8737
https://taskerpaymentgateways.com
Ask for John Stevenson.
You can tell him Dusty sent you.
And before anybody says anything:
I DO NOT GET PAID FOR THIS.
This is not an advertisement.
This is not an affiliate link.
I don't get a commission.
I don't get points.
I don't get credits.
I get ZERO DOLLARS if you call him.
Telling him Dusty sent you literally just lets John know that you came through my recommendation and that you're serious about trying to get your business taken care of.
So why am I telling you to call this specific man?
Because I have already been through this.
I'm a Technologist, Notary, and Researcher — essentially one big fat nerdy scientist 😂 — and I am the kind of person who researches EVERYTHING before I trust somebody with something as important as my business.
John Stevenson at Tasker Payment Gateway was professional, patient, knowledgeable, and actually understood that businesses like ours aren't automatically doing something illegal just because mainstream payment processors don't know how to categorize us.
He walked me through underwriting.
He told me exactly what paperwork they needed.
He reviewed my website.
He pointed out things that needed to be corrected.
He helped me understand what the underwriters were looking for.
And he helped me get from “How the hell am I supposed to accept cards?” to having an actual payment-processing setup.
You do not have to blindly trust me, either.
Google John Stevenson.
Google Tasker Payment Gateway.
Read their reviews.
Research them yourself.
This is one of those rare “you can trust me, bro” recommendations where I'm comfortable putting my own name behind it because I personally dealt with the man.
Now:
DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE DEADLINE SQUARE GAVE YOU.
Yes, I know it's roughly a month away.
I don't care.
I would not leave my operating money sitting there until the last possible minute.
Policies change.
Risk decisions change.
Accounts get restricted.
Funds get held.
Timelines move.
Get your money somewhere YOU control.
Then start working on your replacement processor immediately.
Do not wait for John or an underwriter to ask you for every single piece one at a time.
My best advice is:
SHOW UP PREPARED.
The more organized you are, the easier it is for somebody to look at your business and understand that you're legitimate.
When I went through Tasker's process, this is what I was asked to gather:
Take a clear picture or scan of your government-issued driver's license.
Make sure it's readable.
Your official state paperwork showing that your company exists.
If you're structured differently, they'll tell you what applies to you.
Not just the EIN number typed into an email.
Have your actual IRS EIN documentation ready.
You need an external, normal business bank account.
If you do not already have one, start working on that NOW.
When I went through underwriting, they accepted either a voided check or a formal bank letter.
If you get the bank letter, tell your bank you need it for merchant/payment-processing underwriting.
The letter needs to be:
Do not walk out of the bank with some generic “Dusty banks here” letter.
Make sure it contains what underwriting actually needs.
If your company is newer or the account has very little activity, don't panic.
My account didn't have some magical Fortune 500 transaction history either.
Give them what you legitimately have.
Take 3–4 clear pictures of your inventory.
Show that you're a real business selling real products.
If you have shelves, boxes, wholesale inventory, packaged products, glass, accessories, flower, whatever applies to your operation:
Document it.
If another company fulfills orders for you or supplies your inventory, have something documenting that relationship.
That can include things like:
They need to understand how you get the products that you're selling.
Gather any applicable:
Whatever applies to YOUR business.
You need to prove that your website is actually yours.
John told me this could be:
The important part is that it shows your name and your domain name.
Go through your website before underwriting does.
Make sure you have clearly visible:
And most importantly:
BE HONEST ABOUT WHAT YOU SELL.
If you sell hemp, say you sell hemp.
If you're a farmer, say you're a farmer.
If you're a distributor, explain your distribution model.
If you sell glass, accessories, or consumption hardware, explain that.
If you dropship, explain who fulfills your products.
If you have COAs, licenses, supplier relationships, inventory, or other compliance documentation:
HAVE IT READY.
Do not try to sneak through underwriting by pretending you sell something else.
The entire reason you're doing this is to find a processor that actually understands your business so you don't end up right back here again.
You need a regular external business banking relationship.
Do not let your entire company's financial life exist inside Square, PayPal, Cash App, Stripe, or any other payment platform.
Payment processor ≠ bank.
If you need help finding a business bank in your area that may work for your situation, contact me.
I'll help you research your options.
When I went through this, I was working around the idea of having approximately $1,200 available in the business account.
I'm NOT saying:
“Tasker requires exactly $1,200.”
I'm NOT saying:
“$1,200 guarantees approval.”
That's simply the approximate amount I remember discussing around my own underwriting process.
Every business is different.
But if you have the ability to show that your business has legitimate operating funds available, that's better than presenting an account that's completely empty.
From what I remember, the credit range discussed was somewhere around 675+.
Again:
I am not telling you that 675 is a guaranteed approval threshold.
I'm telling you what I remember from my own process so you have some idea what kind of underwriting environment you're walking into.
John can tell you what's actually required for your specific situation.
Seriously.
Get your paperwork together.
Get your bank situation handled.
Secure your Square money.
Then:

https://taskerpaymentgateways.com
Ask for John Stevenson.
Tell him Dusty sent you.
Again:
I MAKE NOTHING FROM THIS.
This is a business owner recommending another professional during a shitty situation.
If you already have processing handled:
Awesome.
If you don't want my recommendation:
Keep scrolling.
No hard feelings whatsoever.
This post is for the farmers, distributors, wholesalers, hemp businesses, smoke shops, glass companies, and small business owners who currently do not have the luxury of spending three weeks researching every high-risk processor on Google.
Some of y'all are harvesting.
Some of you are packing orders.
Some of you are managing farms.
Some of you are trying to pay employees.
Some of you are trying to keep a retail store alive.
You don't have unlimited time to think, find, research, compare, negotiate, and hope you picked the right company.
Right now you're being forced to react.
I'm trying to take one thing off your plate.
DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE LAST WEEK BEFORE SQUARE SHUTS YOU DOWN.
Secure your money.
Get your paperwork.
Get your business banking handled.
Call somebody who actually understands the industry.
And get ahead of it.

Tell John that Dusty sent you.
I don't get paid.
I just want y'all to still be able to take a damn debit card next month. 😂
I received this email today:
Square
Hi Customer,
We're reaching out with an important update about a federal law change that affects businesses selling CBD and hemp-derived products.
What's changing
A new federal law takes effect on November 12, 2026 that redefines which hemp and hemp-derived products are legal. Because of this change, selling CBD and hemp-derived products — online or in person — will no longer be permitted on Square’s platform.
What this means for your business
Because your business primarily sells CBD, hemp and/or hemp-derived products, this law change affects most or all of your catalog. As a result, Square services will no longer be available for these products, and your Square account will be closed on November 5th, 2026.
Legal Clarification!
THCa is not specifically mentioned in the recent scheduling of cannabinoid isomers, like Delta-8 and Delta-10.
While the total THC rules are still in effect for businesses within the state, any true THCa flower wouldn’t be included in the felony scheduling amongst other cannabinoids.
