While credible arguments can be made for many classic strains, I still believe the best way to drop a new label is with new genetics.

Jelly Roll is an indica-leaning hybrid cross of Jokerz 31 and Gastropop.

One of the truly fascinating aspects of cannabis is how varied the expression of a strain can be depending on which form of consumption it’s processed into. Flower, vapes, dabs, or edibles each highlight different aspects of a plant, and I love comparing them. I previously reviewed Cookies Pacman as an eighth of flower and recently sampled the Pacman live resin from at Cookies Peoria Heights.
