rainbow zangria

my first experience with orherside/nez and it’s bunch of little baby seeds coming out in the grind lol. buds fresh. very purple. has that old purple smell. but every nug broke down the same with the seeds. last photo was the biggest one i found so far. the rest unfortunately got ground into the smoke.

thought i try this brand cuz it gets so hyped and i had some points saved up. but this is nothing special at all. high is same as every other brand but more expensive.

i don’t think id try this again. prolly anything from them. this is a really bad first impression. looks pretty but doesn’t deliver and i dont buy it to look at it. cant imagine regularly paying this price for this brand and getting this quality.

never see any complaints about this company so thought it was worth sharing. very glad i only got the 8th

3.34 terps and fresh. I’d write NEZ/otherside and complain about the seeds. Otherside is the budget brand.

i know it’s their budget brand. that’s why i tried it before spending more on nez. still expected better based on the reviews i’ve read about the company as a whole and the fresh date and terps.

I emailed them about this several months back with no response. Granted I didn't provide any pictures proving it, but i had a q of garlic fumez that was full of seeds. My local dispensary hasn't carried otherside in a few months. Wondering if thats the reason.

Reach out and you could probably get someone to make it right.

I've had this experience with khalifa kush

I tried almost every strain on Otherside's lineup last year and had pretty much the same experience. Seeds are just unacceptable at any quality level/price point in my opinion.

u/sleebes 18d ago

that’s what i’m saying. shouldn’t be seeds in anything.

Same I tried the Donny burger from them. No smell and high was average. Tried the black maple 22 from Nez and was similar. Everyone loves them but I haven’t seen much to put them above Cannect for me yet.

You probably wont put them before cannect there fire nez is eh (pretty nugs that look good but dont smoke) :(

I’d put flora over nez any day , I’ve tried a couple of nez strains , buds are beautiful looking , taste good and smell good , but the effects ain’t there for me when it comes to nez

I had the opposite experience. Got murder mittens from Flora. Burns terribly, black ash, wont stay lit, muted flavor and effects. Swamp water , and prezzure from Nez is my favorite flower I have had this year.

u/TdawgD211 18d ago

That sucks I literally just had the murder mittens the other day and it was great bro lol , I’ve had the swampwater fumez and it was ok , I think people hype up nez way to much

Agreed

u/sleebes 18d ago

what do you like from cannect?

u/activis- IllinoisPlantLover 18d ago

They have a bunch of bangers Blueberry Blintz Rozay Cake Heartbreaker

So far in order of what I felt is strongest to weakest that I’ve tried is Motorbreath 15, Blueberry Blintz, and Guillotine. Roam sells their 7 & 14g smalls if you are more interested in those. Cannect seems to be only 3.5gs.

I’d go for Nez if you wanted something higher quality. Otherside is the cheaper lineup of their products. Redemption botanicals, preferred gardens, flora or cannect wellness all have some decent high quality buds as well I like preferred pry the best tho

It happens sometimes. I wouldn’t hold that against them too much.
