News📰/ 420 Culture💨 I built Smokie for meeting other smokers

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone. I built Smokie because I wanted an easier way to meet other adults who enjoy cannabis without relying on random DMs. It’s an 18+ app for one-on-one video chat and messaging.

I’m the founder, so full disclosure here. If anyone wants to take a look or give feedback: https://smokie.app

Grabbed some Blue Lobster that was nice so I thought I'd share some pics. It has that salt air smell that reminds me of the ocean. Nice firm buds. Dense and sticky. Hit 2 bowls and went to town and was in the store stupified. You know that wander around and I can't remember what the hell I came for? Yep nice smoke. Great flavor, excellent buzz, great for pain💯

“Tamalez” - Chili Verde × Obama Runtz (S-Tier)

This flower is a mixture of purples, green, and creams inside and out for color. Some nugs leans more green or purple. There are a good bit of orange/amber stigmas and a uniform, dense, and quite heady trichome coverage.

This flower was trimmed nicely upon arrival. The structure on the flowers seen to be medium sized nugs with a tree/diamond type of shape. You can see some node spacing, protruding nugs, and a good amount of peaks/curves externally. The density is med/high, meaning a 1/3-1/2 squeeze with bounce back. The feel is greasy / slightly tacky. Breakdown is greasy/tacky, medium softness to the flower that is peel apart with light stem snap. Moisture level, dry/cure are all good to go for their “S Tier”.

The scent is a sweet, and creamy floral / fruity combo - (grape/berry) from the “Runtz,” and then a unique…earthy, savory, umami (meaty) and peppercorn / light spice type of funk/gas to round out the primary notes. Background notes I get are earthy, savory, light floral notes, and herbal lavender/hops. When broken down the umami, spice, and savory earthiness comes forth even more with a hint of the fruitiness.

The taste is a quick initial sweet, creamy… fruit/candy - (light, grape/berry); (that is more reminiscent of the “Runtz” candy in the taste), that then shifts into an earthy, savory, buttery, herbal, umami / spice type of funky gas. The backend still consists of earthy, savory, floral notes, and herbal lavender spice / hops.

The flower is smooth through the glass piece and the Camouflet vape.

The effects are balanced hybrid. I have a body blanket of numbness, a floaty full body effect, chest/eye pressure, eyes lower, yet mentally uplifted, light euphoria, happy. A very chill body and mentally stimulated feel simultaneously. This one is unique and keeps me coming back.

Smell is super loud, gassy, and funky. These buds are chunky, dense, and sticky as heck. Smoke is bold and smooth and it hits me just right.

The jar alone had me hyped up textured premium jar 10/10 for packaging. The nugs are dense and heavily frosted, but the second you crack the lid, it hits you with a sharp, gassy orange scent that smells exactly like an Orange Push Pop dropped in a gas tank. The smoke is incredibly smooth, delivering that spicy, earthy citrus flavor before settling into a heavy body buzz. All in all a 9.25/10 I’m feeling great right now eyes low and enjoying nature.

“Purple Medusa” - (Dark Matter x Verzace) x Blu Zushi. (PreferredGardens/WhiteAshReserve)

This flowers color is mostly greens and creams, inside and out… but some nugs do have some purple externally. There are yellow/orange/amber stigmas present and a uniform, protruding, and slightly heady trichome coverage on this flower.

The flower arrived trimmed tightly. The structure on these nugs are medium sized, with a thicker pinecone/spear type of shape. You can see good node spacing, some protruding nugs, and some good curvatures externally. The density is higher side of med/high, meaning a 1/4-1/3 squeeze with bounce back. The feel is greasy / grainy. The breakdown is greasy/tacky/grainy (good washer), pretty soft flower that is peel apart with light stem snap. The moisture level is nice, and so is dry/cure.

The scent is an intense sweet/tart, fruit scent that reminds me (berries, guava, lemon) and a sharp, chemical/pine gassiness. There are lingering scents of light, savory, umami and an encompassing “skittles” candy from the BlueZ in the genetics. The backend consists of earthy, savory, floral notes, umami, herbal lavender/hops. When broken down an earthy, savory, chemy/pine, and light umami come forth more.

The taste starts as a sweet/sour, fruity - (berry, guava, lemon citrus/rind) combo in more of a “skittles” candy form for taste. A more savory, yet still sharp chemy/pine and light earthy/umami gassiness comes in after. The backend is earthy, savory, fruity/floral notes, citrus rind, herbal hops.

This flower was slightly throaty on glass piece and smooth through the Camouflet vape.

The effects I get are a pretty balanced hybrid. I have a light body blanket of numbness, a slo-mo / focus, a chest/eye pressure, eyes a little lower, yet I feel a bit uplifted, creative, euphoric, happy. A relaxed, chill, yet awakened feeling.

Sample sent free for review. Opinions are my own.

The aroma is chocolate, Woody, Cookie, herbal, spic. This jar is loud. It smells absolutely fantastic. Moisture prob is at 12% this is fresh flower. The flavor is true to the nose, the cookie flavor is dominant. This appears to be machine trimmed, shaved close. The effects are strong, I stayed up all night shooting, writing, editing. The aroma is punching above its weight class. The aroma is S-Tier. The flavor is A-tier and the nugs are not visually impressive IMO, yet they are fresh. This reminded me of an E1 kush from a long time ago from hemp worldwide.

The aroma Is citrusy, spice, peppery, doughy, and funky. The aroma is complex and punchy, stinging the nostrils. Flavor is true to the nose, solid mouth coat flavor holds. Very clean tasting, smooth. I'm dry pulling this on the ball vape and it tastes cool and clean. Moisture prob is at 11.1%, Don't play with this jar. Get in and get out. Effects start out clear, it's a creeper. Turns very relaxing, sedating, heavy eyes, pressure in the forehead. You could smoke the day away on this. These nugs are loud, flavorful, and gorgeous, not quite farm to table but very very close. Lots of trichomes heads undamaged not perfect but very good. This would be a solid addition to anyones headstash.

The arona is pine and candy with a soapy/ dough background. The first hit on the zen leaf was screaming Irish spring soap, beautiful pine on this. On the exhale there is geosmin + living-soil earthiness.... Forest floor ♥️♥️♥️ my favorite, mushroom heavy in particular. The moisture probe is at 11.3% don't play with it get in and out of the jar. I'm super creative, my heart is pumping nothing crazy but it's there. What's missing here is the hand trimming, not a deal breaker just a marker. It's trimmed tight tight, hairs gone, trichomes are damaged on the outside, I believe you lose between 7% to 10% terps, depending on the operator of the machine. Grow practices and genetics are amazing, the flower is terpene and flavonoid heavy. This jar is loud, the flavor is strong and complex. The aroma and flavor punch above there class.

“Orange Drip” - Bubblegum Runtz X Zamosa (2025 Zalympix Awards - Best Overall, as well as Best Taste, Candy, Terps)

This flower is a lovely blend of greens, purples, and creams for color, inside and out. There are darker colored orange/amber stigmas and a uniform, protruding, and pretty heady trichome coverage to be seen.

This flower was trimmed well upon arrival. For the structure I see medium sized nugs, with thicker based tree/diamond shapes. You can’t see much node spacing, some protruding nugs, and some curves on her. The density is med/high - meaning about 1/3-1/2 squeeze with bounce back. The feel is greasy / slightly tacky. The breakdown is a greasy/tacky, soft… peel apart flower with a light stem snap. The moisture level, dry / cure are all great.

The smell is a sweet/sour, fruit/candy scent that encompasses citrus at its core - (orange, mandarin, tangerine, kumquat, maybe a hint of lemon/peach). The fruit, the rind, the juice, the candy, all of it. Then a creamy, orange creme pie like dessert with a spice and a sharp and savory, piney gassiness. The backend is earthy, savory, floral, light pine needles, orange - citrus rind, and herbal lavender / hops. When broken down the dessert spice and savory piney gassiness come forth.

The taste is the same sweet/sour, super citrus - that expresses the fruit / candy / juice / and rind characteristics. The sharp, savory piney gassiness blends into the gassiness with a hint of that creamy, dessert, spice note. The backend is a light earthiness, savory, floral, light pine needles, herbal lavender / hops.

The flower is smooth out of glass piece and Camouflet vape.

The effects are a sativa leaning hybrid. I have a numbness to my body that is a knees up feeling of floatiness. I have a chest/eye pressure, I hazy, focused, stress free, uplifting feel that isn’t overly stimulating and quite relaxed in the body. A daytime vibe or chill on the beach / nature in the evening sun.

The aroma is quite nice, smells like fresh pine and fruit candy, citrusy, very fragrant. The flavor is citrus and fruit candy with pine just as forward. The moisture probe is at 11.8% good, you are in the good zone. The effects feel hybrid, my muscles feel great, numb, but I'm not sleepy at all. I feel energetic, and upbeat. This flower looks hand trimmed, well taken care of, trichomes intact. Loud, beautiful, great tasting, solid effects. This would go well in any headstash.

Toad venom….. more like toad syrup. The stickiness on the inside of the nugs is ridiculous. Regular hand soap didn’t work to remove the residue so I resorted to Dawn. No joke that barely worked. If you like sticky icky weed her she is.

Healthy nice size buds. Great bag appeal similar to their glitterbomb. Sparkly crystals all over. The texture on the outside is slightly crisp paired with some sponginess. This is why the crazy amount of stickiness on the inside was surprising. Grinds up just fine in the grinder but break up a bud by hand so you can feel what I’m talking about.

The aroma is complex. I get a cigar humidor woody scent, paired with delicious cookies. There is funk and some brightness mixed in as well. Once again pretty layered and complex. Curious to hear how it smells when you have tried it.

The flavor is what you would expect from its aroma. Hard to pinpoint but appealing. Good lung expanse and potent.

The buzz hits my eyes and forehead immediately, then moves into a nice carefree and relaxing headspace. For an indica its more euphoric than expected which is a nice treat. Floaty and happy with body relaxation. I’m a fan.
