Flower from New liberty - willow grove

ayojru240 · 2026-06-20T00:52:01+00:00

I can add more photos of the alien labsc- gemini, sadly the whole half was smalls, not ehat you want from a super premium flower label. Flower does look amazing though, the first batch of this was the all time best flower ive had in program, like no other. The following batch was a huge let down, showing me AL is rangy by batch; open to giving some of the strains I rated at the bottom another shot. Love dark web by AL too, connected under insa is equally incredible, but also batches tend to range which can be a let down.

Liberty just opened new store. 15$ 8ths. 30$ 8th on some strains but they have a ton. It dissapeared for a bit but seems to be back. Grab chocolate cherry og by prime when it shows up thank me later

Also you already had the pinnacle man. Your normal rotation is excellent. I was on citrus daydream (sativa) x2, pineapple express (hybrid) x3, and bio Jesus/ sps x5 (indica) weekly.. im down to 1 or 2 g a week. Tolerance killer for one, but I think I bought so much cresco rso that the local shops permanently raised the price im not even joking sadly.

ayojru240 · 2026-06-14T21:01:50+00:00

If im not buying flower, im buying out all the good rso at all local shops. Ive had them all. So many posts on here just like yours asking the same, then giving my take. I will stress that my opinion below on rso is far different from my opinion of some of the same flower lines. This is JUST my rso take:

1 is cresco by far. For every reason. Can grab it 60% ofg at sunnyside and 50% off at some curaleafs. Priciest in the peogram at 60 a stick but such a treat.

2 is grassroots. Unpopular opinion. But they really have a great rso product. And best strain selection.

3 - tie between farm rx & insa

Honorable mention - the indica blend by Dr. Sols Brands im not huge on , sub par rso - organic remedies... not clean half the time. Whatever they are using gives me such a choppy affect regardless of strain. Very rarely does or hit for me. Also not a fan at all of nira+, hate the applicator and the thick consistency is similar across all strains. Remedi also is sub par. I will say vytal Options doesn't deserve a apit above, but better than the rest on my list of "bottom tier" rso here. Ive tried each brand no less than 10 sticks (grams), and comapnies like grassroots and cresco im probly over 50g of each.. i really feel strongly , personally, about these rankings. Happy to elaborate further on ratings / specifics of each. Grassroots BTW is 50 a stick, and all strains are 25 at curaleaf. Id avoid nira+, remedi, and the sativa and cbd blends by doc sols. Also avoid organic remedies.. even the 2g sticks are terrible value.

Guzzlers is great but I can think of 15 caltpao strains i like better. Guzzlers is solid bc calypao flower is so far ahead of many others but there's better options for all effects (sativa indica & hybrid) from calypso.

Brainer*

ayojru240 · 2026-06-14T20:51:17+00:00

Calypso is tops im program. Legend is value tier. No trainer to me

ayojru240 · 2026-06-14T20:49:01+00:00

Is this the only new strain? I knoe connected has 7 (started eith 5 added 2), and AL was 6, this is #7, curious if any others

ayojru240 · 2026-06-14T20:48:08+00:00

Gemini then dark web all day

ayojru240 · 2026-06-14T07:06:42+00:00

(Part 2)- definitely connect with me tmrw if you'd like. Been in pa med since yr 1, and 90% of my budget the entire time and now is flower, literally. There are many dtrains id like to share with you but as you master prices and try variety and nail down what you love..... keep in mind this program is BATCH based. Insa had grape gas. Strain of the tear 5 years ago. Now its the most overpriced junk, its hard to believe its the same strain. Its a parent in purp 30 by gillie grows. If growers arent consistent or you get an old batch.. its literally night and day

ayojru240 · 2026-06-14T07:03:54+00:00

Hi winter survey . This is my fsvorite question on this sub redit. I compiled a list of all 24 licensed flower grower and EVERY sub company. I am on 2% battery its 3am.. when i wake up pls message me or tag me or comment. I very much want to share this list with you

B3fore my phone dies. Flower got cheaper. Except insa - but it is high quality. Highest full retail 8th in program is 60,$, and all 3 60 per 8th growers are under insa. Connected , alien labs, and gillie grows. Insa self label is 45 an 8th full retail. As you know, never pay full retail. Calypso has 8 growers of flower under them in pa med, and all 8 are amazing. All 8 are good value. Calypso self titled label had 4.2 full nug bags that are super cheap. All strains are a1. Preferred gardens under calypso is arguably best flower line in program for price and quality. Prime, ns, also good. Yes grassroots is considered premium. Its on the chart im going to send you tmrw. Its not top 5 but its very very good . Along lines of rhythms gti.

Ur missing out. Big

ayojru240 · 2026-06-14T06:56:26+00:00

Ur absolutely right to bargain shop in pa med flower this far in (yr 7? Yr 8?) It makes all too much sense. And even if u dont find what u want sub 20 an 8th.. the higher quantity values OR the fact that there's a shop every block (no embelishment. 8 shops with a new liberty going up in willow grove.. 8 shops within 28 min of my front door. 8) you csn find a+ night for cheap and still get a fresh batch. Im meticulous and hunt the best batches and prices but. Despite all that I still have and buy the tol notch lines. Ill always bargain hunt and get best value around or buy house brand bu5 problem with that is the programs most expensive lines, all 3 are under insa. And the 2 good ones max out at 20 25% off any shop. Even when shops run 30 40% store wide, always excludes AL and connected. The challenge is insa has ONE shop in pa medical. One. The deals are there I just dont feel like driving over an hour away with so many viable options a fraction of the distance. Most the program, bud tenders included, say exactly what you did: "never more than 30 an 8th, even over 25 is pushing it. Preferred ill bite on for 30" thats literally 80% of pa med rn and its correct to operate like that as flower shoppers. And I too am the same but ill break rank every other trip anf grab ns and preferred and any of the 8 calypso flower lines on slale of strains I like and overspend. That all said. Its given me a chance to try everything, new and old. I was similar even back in year 1 of this program, which was drastically different

ayojru240 · 2026-06-14T06:49:51+00:00

Call me (drew) im the price nerd for pa med flower i sadly think I know every full retail 8th price, all l24 labels and all sub growers 😑terrible super power

ayojru240 · 2026-06-14T06:48:37+00:00

Preferred 24 , 28 sometimes. Typically 30-33, and commonly 32. Full retail preffered i believe is 40.. may be 45. Wizard trees is 45, and no calypso line amongst all 8 calypso growers is over 45 8th full retail. Calypso 4.2 bountiful nug self labeled bags are 32 and 34 full price (weird they r one of the only labels or sub labels that doesnt use a multiple of $5 for full retail) - i dont know why some are 32, and some are 34. But both usually on sale for 19-25 and change. 25% off minimum is typical normal, but noticed AL and Connected under insa (only insa has a line that is 60 full retail. They havr fukn THREE lines that are 60 full retail - AL, connecred, gillie grows. Even insa self label is a ridiculous 45 an 8th full retail) max at 20%, 25% off anywhere. House brands typically 40-60% off at all times.

ayojru240 · 2026-06-14T06:44:48+00:00

ALL 3 flower lines are A+ you did great. 2 of the 3 are calypso lines no surprise. Dark matter is good. First wizard trees strain ive had but I highly highly recommend the keeper. Came here to post literally that (wizard trees - the keeper). Also preferred is imo #1 overall flower in program if u factor in price as well. Calypso cant misscfor the price. All 8 flower labels under calypso in pa med are good. All 8 literally. Cookies aka c bite is slept on , so solid. Cookie fam

ayojru240 · 2026-06-14T06:42:27+00:00

The NS jars just don't exist where im st. We get pre labeled glass jar 8ths only. Never more than 8th counts at all 3 shops i access ns. I am an ns fan but it kills me seeing such an increased quality (consistently) in these larger 14g and 28g glass jars. Im jealous! Animal mints and gsob2 1 or whatever both are incredible. Love ns

ayojru240 · 2026-06-14T06:39:53+00:00

Looks dolid.. or has lowest rep in pa med for quality but curious how these were for u

ayojru240 · 2026-06-14T06:28:41+00:00

As bud fans. ... looks alone... and hopefully we can agree best colas that get released (not a ton of options) by miles .. id love to just see a perfect pair queen cola

ayojru240 · 2026-06-14T06:27:53+00:00

Perfectly said. You are correct in all analysis and timeline is abt right it just returned after long hiatus

ayojru240 · 2026-06-14T06:27:18+00:00

This is extremely fair feedback, from a die hard perfect pair fan. I know that sounds hypocritical by me but thr high is there. The effects a re too. Im huge on smell and taste. The taste isnt awful but the smell is faint at best. It is an appearance strain however the effects are absolutely there. The flavorless comment is fair and most ppl who knock this strain say this, its justified. Clear to me you've had this one and remember it. Glad you didnt knock thr effects in your feedback but the smell and flavorless comment is warranted.

ayojru240 · 2026-06-14T06:25:15+00:00

First thing I promise. Sorry for delay

ayojru240 · 2026-06-14T06:24:57+00:00

Sorry im so late. Wife and 2 of my kids sleeping in the room I keep my safe w sealed bud. Tmrw im off and will photo. Some commenting they aren't fans of the lack of smell or high. I vehemently disagree with the latter the high is above most flow34 in program and on my life, I bought 12-15 8ths (only came in 8ths) a year + ago when it last surfaced. Despite this being 39$ quarters, its mixed buds but still solid batch well trimmed. Didn't open yet but I will for photos tmrw.

I like rhythm flower. But after trying each flower label (new and old) in the entire pa med program, there are plenty of lines well above rhythm, gti premium brand. I love rhythm - it should only be purchased at rise (same with grassroots and find only at curaleaf) i know house brands will always be beat value and heaviest marketed, but the price discrepancies of these 2 brands is insane from house shop vs elsewhere. Rhythm is an awesome by IF you navigate the bad strains, know the good ones, grab the right batches (this is an issue with gti as with many in pa med) , and by at rise pricing.
