CAMMP Review (Multiple Strains) - February 2020
MoM/RetailerName
CAMMP - stands for Canadian Affordable Medical Marijuana Products
Some of their strains are grown in house and some are sourced from other growers.
Shipping/Packaging
Ships out from BC and made it to Ontario in three quick days. The products all arrived in a nice plastic container/tupperware that I'll definitely be keeping, and were all vacuum sealed as well. It was then packaged and sent in a bubble mailer. No smell whatsoever and nothing was squished.
Strains :
Watermelon Skittles

This Watermelon Skittles is listed on the site as another exclusive CAMMP strain. Not to be mistaken with Watermelon Zkittles as this one is a cross of Watermelon and Sour Skittles. These toonie sized buds have a lovely structure and appearance and all sport the same conical shape. Very dense and completely sugared in trichomes as well.
It's always an amazing experience when the strain actually smells and tastes like it's name, especially one like watermelon skittles. The first thing I noticed was how uncanny the aroma was to a green watermelon skittle before the sour citrus notes blended in. Such a tasty and flavourful smoke as well and even more so on the watermelon side. Really loved smoking this one in the bong as it was so smooth. Will update for ash colour once I try it in a joint!
The high this strain offered was hard to pin point at first as to which direction it was leaning. After smoking it a couple of times I would probably say it's a pretty balanced hybrid with relaxing but not couch locking effects. Rather euphoric too and made me noticeably talkative. Seems like a great social and outgoing daytime strain.
Hindu Gas Super Bling

An exclusive strain to CAMMP of Hindu Kush x Gas, which is then crossed with the cultivar, Bling (LUI Pollen x White Widow). Bag appeal is top notch and very much craft looking with it's beautiful aesthetics. Sticky and resinous buds that sport a wonderful pallet of colours in greens and soft purples that travel all throughout. Trimmed to perfection and complimented very nicely by thin orange hairs that peek through its thick blanket of trichomes. I have no doubt this would be rated AAAA if the buds were bigger, but as advertised, this is a fresh batch that produced typically smaller dense nuggets.
The aroma and taste on this stuff is seriously gassy, but not in a pungent way. More sweet and earthy with strong, almost intoxicating notes of kush. Seems like it takes on more of the Hindu side but there are some soft, subtle notes of pepper and spice that become especially prevalent on exhale. Insanely smooth smoke, and burns a resinous oil ring with a clean light ash.
I knew this was some real potent stuff as soon as I let out the first hit. Very heady and euphoric but also super relaxing and worry free. Put me into a blissful body buzz within minutes, and left me feeling like just a floating head. Effects are clearly indica dominated but that little bit of white widow in it's genetics seems like it prevents it from being an instant knockout.
Meat Breath

My first time trying this rare strain although I have tried Meat the Cookies which has some similarities without a doubt. The colours on these buds are actually quite unique and funky looking and really pop. A mix of light and dark greens and random purple shades throughout. They are super tight and dense as well and coated in visible trichome heads. Came quite sticky too and it would take a while to break up without a grinder. Good texture for rolling as it forms to the paper and makes it easy to crease.
I now see why this strain was given the name Meat Breath. I can't quite describe exactly what I'm smelling and tasting but it's definitely unique in every regards. It's very rich and savoury almost resembling a marinated meat of sorts. It's so funky and strange but you can't help but to smell or smoke or again. It smoked extremely smooth in the bong and the robust and full flavoured smoke lingered on the tongue for a while.
Very potent hybrid effects on this strain that had me noticeably higher than usual. Truly an example of a strong euphoric and 'trippy' type high. Everything seemed funny and it was hard to keep on track with any one thing. Constant 'what was I just doing or saying' moments. I don't know what it is but breath strains never let me down and make for a good time.
Strawberry

I've had strawberry related strains but never just strawberry and it's an amazing strain in many ways. The buds are extremely dense and heavy, with a lovely structure and colour palette. Tons of wavy hairs and trichomes everywhere with no visible leaf. Sticky but not too fresh, and breaks up with a great consistency for rolling.
The nose on this strain really surprised me and reminded me of strawberry jerry in ways as it's so sweet and candy like, but more pungent. I can almost swear it smells like strawberry yogurt. Translates decently when smoked too, with hints of spice at the end of every exhale. Burned nice and slow and left behind a light coloured ash.
Said to be a pure sativa and not a heavy hitting strain by any means but that's what also makes it such a great high in my opinion. Just like one of my favourite sativas, California orange, it's very euphoric and happy going. Not a racey type of sativa buzz but rather a relaxing and mellow one that's probably ideal for those who get anxious off certain sativas.
Black Kush

This Black Kush, which is a phenotype of the BC Black strain, is grown by CAMMP themselves like the Sour Tangie and Headband. Not as dark in appearance as the picture and more of a forest green colour, with clusters of wild orange hairs throughout. Also decently sticky when broken up, with a good amount of trichome coverage outside and inside.
The profile on this strain isn't something exotic or tropical but rather a very classic profile that many kushes seem to share. A combination of sweet earth and peppery spices. I didn't seem to get any hints of berries like some descriptions mention but it was a very enjoyable smoke nonetheless that was smooth and burned a nice, light ash.
Indica dominant effects that came on quick and effectively. Starts off with a soothing and calming wave of relaxation that gives a nice body tingle/buzz. Not a heavy hitting, go to sleep type high but more of a long lasting and eventually sedating one.
Sour Tangerine
https://i.imgur.com/1Qqx9Ev.jpg
I really need to start seeking out more tangie related strains because the few I've had have always been memorable and super terpy. This Sour Tangie was a fantastic smoke and I loved everything about it. The bud structure was on the fluffy side and heavily blanketed in greasy trichomes, making it quite sticky. Thick orange hairs that contrast beautifully in comparison to it's light green appearance.
A cross of East Coast Sour Diesel and Tangie, making for a very refreshing aroma that included notes of sweet and sour citrus and subtle spices. The taste when smoked was identical and remained flavourful throughout with the citrus really dominating. Smooth on the exhale, burning with a clean, light ash.
The high this one offered is exactly what you would expect from a sativa dominant diesel cross. Energetic and super heady, but not a cloudy high and rather quite clear and mood lifting. Found it to be pretty long lasting too and felt buzzed the entire morning. Perfect wake and bake strain.
Headband

This Headband came moderately sticky and fluffy, sporting forest green colours accompanied by pinkish hued hairs. Trim could've been better although it's mostly protective sugar leaf. Decent amount of trichomes as well.
Very complex aroma with plenty of notes coming through the longer you smell. Earthy and sour with subtle notes of lemon followed by sharp og undertones. Translates fairly well to the taste producing a thick and clean, lemony og exhale that has hints of skunk. Reminds me slightly of chemdawg, and burns clean with a light ash.
Immediate headband effect and tightness around the head after a few tokes as it stays true to it's name. A real heady and stoney high that isn't ideal for focusing, but more for relaxing and melting with your thoughts. Definitely indica leaning but not so sedative as I was still able to maintain functionality.
Incentive
I was reached out to here on the forums and offered 4 strains from the site to review. The other 3 samples were thrown in to see the quality of their in house grows as well I'm assuming as the ones I chose were from other growers.
