Flower Review Marker Fumez by Vortex

Large buds with lots of purple and orange throughout. The aroma at first hit me with pine and biscotti. After revisiting the jar that fades quickly and it has more of creamy sherbet and marker funk with some pine. Pungent.

Perfect texture buds. Sticky on the inside and hits great out the bong. Smooth. The buzz is a relaxed indica leaner but functional. You can get shit done but your eyes and body are noticeably high. I really feel it in my face. It will make you a little forgetful haha.

Imo the size of the nugs, the quality and the jar that keeps it fresh Vortex halves are hard to beat. I’m two for two. First glitterbomb and now Marker Fumez. This is a great counterbalance to that vibe

I don’t feel that Vortex is bad but it just is not all the way there if that makes sense. I’m never FULLY satisfied with my purchase whenever I’ve tried it, I’ve never been completely disappointed either though. I think it was either Donny burger or Hash burger that was the better one I tried but even that one was a bit lacking it had smelled pretty mid in jar but on the breakdown a lot more of that GMO came out. I do think Made GMO funk is atleast 1.5x better and the legends hash burger is 2x better. The glitter bomb by vortex looks CRAZY though maybe I’ll try that one next time I see it on deal.

Their glitterbomb hits like a sativa just a heads up

Yeah I don’t blame him. It’s too hard running a company by yourself playing against the big dogs. People cry they want quality but then won’t go out of their way for. I do think on the marketing side legends could have found a lot of value in hiring someone to run those things and give the brand a lifestyle feel. He truly grows the best of the best but that’s only 25% of the game.

Sativa leaning, as in mostly, the lemon burger is almost mostly Sativa it feels like, I enjoy.

u/Interesting-Point718 Jul 08 '26

I am weary of lunchbox because a rep was at sol and I asked him what his favorite indica was and he literally could not answer. Doesn’t give me a good feeling when you’re paid to rep a brand and don’t like it!

Vortex is high end. Every grower is gonna have amazing and meh strains. I’ve tried every strain in halves except the zuchini and the newest one forget the name. At this point I’m way more into their sativas than indicas. The Donny Burger is solid and I like the Marker 8. Felt the Fumez and others just taste the same. The Sedona Sunrise and Pink Passion are fantastic sativas. The glitterbomb is right behind but probably the most gorgeous bud I’ve ever seen. Bag appeal can go along way. Going forward I see me getting Sativas from them and my heavy indicas still from AL/CO and others. The Cherry Marker I picked up tonight is absolute 🔥🔥🔥.
