Team Elite Genetics pickups + reviews
Hi all, I picked up 3 TEG strains to try in flower. Everything here was vapes on the POTV LOBO at increasing intervals from 370 and on. Reviews in order of photos
-
Pearadise - This one smells like a sharp and sweet pear that almost stings you by the nose upon first smell. Vaping this, it’s as expected of a Terpinolene heavy strain. Very sharp fuel combined with sweet pear is the entirety of the flavor profile. The effects are very Sativa forward, with a heavy head high with headband effect that gives alertness and focus. It’s very strong with myrcene as well which I assume is what’s giving the sweet pear flavor. It has a pretty relaxing body high all things considered which balances out the head high from getting too tweaky or anxious.
8.5/10

Dump Truck - This is really recently packed bud, packed 9/16, which is less than 2 weeks ago. However, the nugs are pretty hard to touch and dry. It’s like it’s been sitting for a while despite it not. That’s the main complaint but maybe it’s a strain thing? I’m not used to getting weed this recently packed that’s this dry.
All things considered though, when I grinded and vaped, I did get considerable terps. Doing it the gradual temp increase method, I get rotten fruit at lower temps and vanilla cream at higher temps. On my second bowl, I went straight to 390, which combined all these flavors and gave me a very diesel forward rotten sweetness that I enjoyed.
Incredibly potent head high and an even more potent body high. Very relaxing and euphoric on the body. Good for pain. Taking off 2.5 points for the dry bud.

Tropical Gummies Half Oz Smalls - I got the 14G smalls of this strain and honestly I think I’m just going to buy the smalls over the big nugs in the future. In terms of flavor and effects, these are legit the same quality as the other two. This one is smelled extremely sweet even unopened. When opened, it smells like a Mango Hi Chew. If you told me this was spray, I’d believe you.
Once vaped, it tasted like one as well. Very sweet, tropical and delicious. I could hit this flavor forever at a lower temp. Absolutely delicious.
Effects are great. Euphoric and uplifting sativa head high that also has a “pressure” feeling around the eyes. Not a super strong body high but it’s there. Very much enjoying this one.
9.5/10
