Monthly Cannabis Review
GASPAC OKLAHOMA
By Melissa Hall, M.Ed.
As September arrives, Oklahomans everywhere take a deep sigh of relief for the impending Fall weather and break from the long, hot Summer. September 2021 has more to offer than just cooler weather. For one, Oklahoma ’ s favorite Cannabis publication, The Chronic Magazine, turns two. As our second anniversary approached, I knew the review pick must be something simply spectacular to celebrate our second year in print. With much luck, I came across something even more exceptional than I could have even imagined. The first official runs for a team that is anything but new to the game. Gaspac Oklahoma caused a lot of buzz as testers for In House Genetics among other genetics companies. Small but mighty, this team of only 5, has produced a true small-batch craft quality unlike any other. The care, time, love, and attention put into this outstanding flower is simply remarkable.
With every trichome hanging on, every fiery red hair in place and unaltered, anyone that appreciates and spends time and energy looking for the best flower, will simply be blown away by Gaspac Oklahoma ’ s extraordinary top top-shelf flower.
The Gaspac team may be small, with 5 people running the show, but the quality suggests more time has been put into this amazing flower than even possible. The head Grower Danny, is no stranger to putting in time for the love of the grow. Before Cannabis made its huge debut in Oklahoma, he knew he wanted to learn how to grow and grow properly as a consumer himself. With his wife behind him supporting his bold career move, he moved to Colorado and spent 3 years learning everything he could about growing top-quality Cannabis. “I slept on an air mattress in the grow for 3 years. ” He told The Chronic. Soaking up all the knowledge and learning all the techniques he could, it was a blessing when 788 passed in OK. Especially since his wife and small children stayed behind in OK while he learned his trade. Many long drives and years later, this bold move sure paid off.
When asked what’ s next for the Gaspac crew, they replied,
Choosing a strain from their first run was more than difficult. With hitters like Mafia Funeral, Platinum Kush Breath, and Garlic Icing to name a few, all strains really deserve a mention. But, there was that one strain that caught my eye and stole my heart.
A looker, a hitter, and a strain you don’t see on a shelf very often, the marvelous Banana Mints. Alchemy Genetics did a superb job crossing Wedding Cake BX1 x Banana OG to get this outstanding strain. The bag appeal alone will lure any patient straight to the Centerfold strain.
With deep violet hues and fiery tangerine hairs, among a simply sparkling snow like coating of shiny trichomes, The Banana Mints is definitely a beauty queen. But, don ’t let that pretty girl exterior fool you. This gal hits! With effects so deep and immediate onset , Gaspac Oklahoma sets themselves apart with this spectacular growth.
From the first hit to the last, The consistency remains 100% and the flavor is literally just as good as the first to the last puff. This is among the cleanest and purest flowers I have come across in my 20 plus years of loving Cannabis and searching for the better. This flower and the whole first run from Gaspac reminds me of smoking pure hash rosin.
That’ s how terpy and strong this growth of the notorious Banana Mints really is. The aroma is gassy, yet fruity with that Banana scent almost giving it a tropical note, but it’ s that gas people that shines through and creates a pure dank aroma and flavor to match. I rarely say this as my tolerance is quite high, but one hit will put your mind in a different place instantly.
It’ s a great medical strain that alleviates anxiety, depression and works quite the number on any kind of light to serious pain. Any seasoned or non seasoned smoker will appreciate these amazing effects so much. The highly anticipated second run will not hit shelves until late Nov/December. Trust me, this is worth the wait.
Being a true small-batch craft, this drop will be very limited. It’s expected to sell out very quickly so follow @thechronicmagazine @okcannacritic @official _gaspac @ovatimetorres @gro.fux.given @cecebarker and @tegridyrx3.0 for updates on this upcoming huge drop! You will not want to miss this very rare, super high-quality flower.
As always, Remember to medicate responsibly and Stay Lit Oklahoma.
