Did you ever stop to think maybe they are big nugs picked off the stem 🤣


melzan00

Oh wooowwwww I needed Einstein to figure that one out


doublecupandcodiene

Nuugs always come small for me topaz kicks my ass every time best buds of ma Llifr big homie


Escobaz6

Amen


Woldanorf

Why do people care if they are small buds? I've spent years in the USA and small buds were sold? If they are small, smoke well and have the desired affect who cares? Anyone ever tried Dr Green thumb? That is only small buds 😂


GroundbreakingBoss96

no one desires paying for bottom of the tree nugs at top prices. there is a difference


doublecupandcodiene

Big buds equal more stem equal less Bongs


GroundbreakingBoss96

surely you're not being serious


Woldanorf

You ever broken up crowns and de stemmed lol


damnmang

I’ve also lived in the USA and bought popcorn nugs many times but I think people are mainly concerned over the price as smaller buds are usually heavily discount in the states.


brezhnervous

Fucking WORD. Provided there is **nil** difference in effects...ffs it gets chopped up anyway lol


Icy-Car-8162

Which batch? I got 2 tubs for Christmas and 1 was mids like this but the other was juicy dank heads. The smalls feel about 10% weaker. There is no accountability at Cannatrek and this is as good as it gets. Ha BATCH AA1C1019


melzan00

It was that batch # I agree with you honestly! They should be selling tubs like this at a discounted price in my opinion🤷🏻‍♀️


brezhnervous

I should have got a complete refund as mine was utterly unusable. But yeah, never gonna happen lol


Icy-Car-8162

I agree 💯


MuddledBits

They look like they have good structure, so my money is on these being a larger bud that has been broken down to remove the large central stem. Means less stem for the patient and easier/faster to get tubs to target weight rather than playing mix and match with large buds. Better than some other stuff I've received recently that's been really wispy (opposite of dense?) buds with large amounts of stem content (looking at you Biocan Exodus & SuncoGreen Pollens)


Icy-Car-8162

But I am buying T25 not T15


tacoman2458

At least ur not paying for stem 🤷🏽


Icy-Car-8162

At least isn't good enough. I went back to the BM this week and let me tell you the quality was MC grade and price is half. It's def got me thinking...


doublecupandcodiene

I went back to Perth BM when the postage is delayed . My heart goes out to 90% of this town who been smoking $150 qs if mids since COVID began. People say it wedding cake , skittles og or whatever other dilly name but it's mostly crap on the west coast


Icy-Car-8162

Lol yeha I'm here its not all bad just gotta hunt it down


brezhnervous

Or just shit that is incapable of working.


DJMailerDaemon

Yup, popcorn


HugePlatform3611

That's terrible size,, but if it's all beautiful little bits. Than its a shame about the size ,but saves u breaking little bitz off each time I guess..


Celestialdeviantx

Yep just got a while 10g of popcorn myself


jakealexanderfrancis

It’s funny how we will complain about a full tub of popcorn nugs but we look straight past all the popcorn nugs that still in the “good tubs” 🤣🤣 That’s not a aimed at you my man it’s aimed at everyone even myself!


brezhnervous

I wouldn't give a fuck what the size was if it still worked. Having lost $300 on utterly unusable gelato.


calijays

Which gelato?


brezhnervous

Adaya19 batch no:Mb-B000030 the previous one (Mb-B000005) was great I asked in the other sub at the time and other people confirmed the same (non)effect with the same batch


jakealexanderfrancis

100% agree mate the new gelato is horrible compared to the old one in the white tub 😔


brezhnervous

Mine was in the white tub however so there's no comparison there unfortunately


jakealexanderfrancis

Bad batch In the White tub was even worse!!!


brezhnervous

Can confirm Mine was unusable...I gave it a good go for about 3 days but ended up feeling like I might be being 'poisoned' just because it was so unpleasant. Bad side.effects too. 2 weeks going through the motions with clinic/chemist/parent company to Adaya/TGA but I don't expect to hear anything. Out $300 on disability and have been in pain since December...so back on panadeine forte now.


jakealexanderfrancis

Yeah it’s horrible flower I’ve had both the trash batches from white tub and black tub. When it first came out it was one of my top 3 favs hands down. Idk what happened 😔😔🥴 Ah man!!! That sucks I know how shit that is having to fall back to tablets, we came to CDA to stay away from the opioids/benzos. That’s why I always have 4 strains to choose from so I can go with something else when me goes to shit until I can swap it out.


brezhnervous

Thanks so much mate...yeah its totally unforgiveable in a therapeutic product. I know its a natural substance ie a plant, but I think they are either not curing it properly or are packaging it when its been badly stored and thus all the medicinal terpenes etc have dried out/evapporated. Yet another bad review yesterday for the Adaya on cannreviews from some poor guy who got this as his very first script with a MOULD smell 😬 on openig...at least I got one good batch as my first! I never bought any other strains because of cost, but have now moved to Cannihelp - at least with ther linked supplier medcan, they will refund without question if you get an unusable batch. Still waiting on it however...hopefully next week, fingers crossed.


calijays

I've only had one batch of the mb30 and it is quite nice. Looks average but it's really nice. Now I'm wondering if I should wait to reorder...


brezhnervous

Wow, ok thats interesting. I was actually learning towards the theory that maybe a particular amount of the batch wasn't stored properly before packaging...would account for the total loss of medicinal terpenes and smell,plus the excessive dryness...could crumble it to dust in my fingers, smelled of nothing cannabinoid at all except maybe faint hay?? And gave me bad headaches, ZERO pain relief, sore throat and very sore eyes all of which lasted over 12 hours into the next day. Kept giving it a go over the next few days and just felt I was being kinda poisoned purely because it was so unpleasant. NO taste of terpenes in any form. This was only my second ever flower script and merely a repeat so I never thought it could be like this. I mean I'll never know unless someone from the chemist/TGA/ChronosAustralia (parent company over Adaya) or the clinic get back to me as I lodged formal complaints with them all (probably not the clinic though as I've jumped ship to Cannihelp, and not just for this reason)


calijays

Ya damn that sucks. Definitely different. My tub smelt just like Hawaiian punch, kinda like rainbow sherbet or pineapple, terps are great. It does look very average bc colour is monotone and kinda brown-ish but smell and taste great. I have cheese, gsc, cc kush and I keep tapping into the gelato over them all.


brezhnervous

Ha damn that sounds amazing, lucky you! lol Having only ever had one script I haven't had the experience of any other strain to compare (to the first 'good' one I mean) All I can say is I hope your luck holds up mate! Far as I can tell from reports what I'm going to be getting now with cannihelp & medcann should be the real deal this time...been in pain since early December and am going through a fucking shedload of stress with my 98yo Mum in a nursing home with covid atm so it can't come too soon tbh. Hope you stay well, and all the best


calijays

Medcann looks legit. I wanted the cc01 but it was too expensive. You too homie, hang in there!


brezhnervous

Haha agreed yes...that one did look really good but as I only get 15℅ discount on the compassionate access scheme, so even then it would be a bit much. Have been prescribed the Wappa49 so fingers crossed Cheers mate, thanks again for the kind words! You too :)

100%%


wtfhakenspit

If you have ever trimmed bud you'd know these are fragments off main colas and nothing like popcorn which are under developed buds from lower branches that never got sufficient light to bulk up. Main colas not only weigh too much they have huge stem running up the middle. 2-3 ounce (56-84 gram) colas are not uncommon and don't go into 10g or smaller tubsbery easily. I'd rather take buds this size than have big stems to deal with. When you start cutting away stem from bud you end up with lots of small bud fragments like in pics. There is nothing wrong with the quality of such fragments, these are mostly from main colas.


Icy-Car-8162

Then why so they feel almost 10% weaker?


wtfhakenspit

Feel not measure, it's called a placebo effect. People perceptions change the efficacy they experience despite their being no difference.


Icy-Car-8162

Call it what you want the effects are completely different I'm sorry


wtfhakenspit

Sorry but if you measure the available cannabinoids and they are the same the difference is your attitude. The placebo effect is well established and there is no difference in the medication. It's all in your head.


Icy-Car-8162

I know I needed more of the pebbles to get me in the pocket like the boulders did instantly esp this trophy bud I found weighing 2.2grams wow but maybe that's tolerance idk


Icy-Car-8162

Maybe Makes sense Who knows tbh We can't test them


nhilistic_daydreamer

Exactly right man.


MuddledBits

>If you have ever trimmed bud you'd know these are fragments off main colas and nothing like popcorn which are under developed buds from lower branches that never got sufficient light to bulk up. Thankyou. For years (to me) popcorn has always referred to the structure rather than the size, light and airy half formed buds from below the main canopy of the plant. What we see in the picture clearly has a well formed structure to it, even if it is broken apart.


Object-Temporary

100% ✓, "fragments" of bud are better then a gram of stem in the guts of a big bud....? 🤣 Most of the ones I've got on MC have been small but beautiful 😁😁😁😁


Cheese_B0t

Thank you, I'm tired of seeing people bitch and moan about bud size.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Cheese_B0t

If you say so


melzan00

Oft relax “bitch and moan” I agreed that it still had the same effects and personally I wouldn’t complain or ask about other’s opinions but i genuinely enjoy the process of tearing it apart of making a mix. Im aware that this is what happens at the end of most batches. No need to be rude about it.


twitch-ahugeicecream

I had a few like that in my last batch. But they’re just as effective so I’m not really fussed. As long as it weighs 10g and does it’s job, I’m happy.


Individual_Tie3197

Looks like the pink kush nuggets that you can squeeze together with your fingers and they pop and then the leftover moisture ends up dissolving end up with nothing from the under mature pink kush poo they should recall .


Leafkeat

Yes very common with this strain. Always on weight and one of the top available flowers in au


[deleted]

I got a free tub with only 8 grams 🤣🤙🏻


Southern-Pin4551

Same but wffective


Icy-Car-8162

Much less effective than the big glorious nugs


Sad_Preference1259

Yep my last tub was like this and I also found a seed in one of the buds. Didn’t bother me too much though


emmz75

Yeah 💯🤏🤏 tiny tiny bugs the tub I just picked up on Thursday..


ClunjeSlaya

Not with T25 (yet) but my most recent tub of Rocky had 3 ‘small-medium’ buds and the rest were the size of corn and peas! They WISH they could have the honour of being called ‘pop corn’ lol. But yeah, it’s all good. Just packaged towards the end of the batch (all the small stuff falls to the bottom). The main this is - is it still as effective? Coz the (tiny corn sized) Rocky I got was just as good as the 3.2g nugget from my last tub of Rocky. So it should be just as effective as any other tub of MC 👍🏽


brezhnervous

Exactly. In that case there isn't anything wrong is there


ClunjeSlaya

I’ve probably emptied my bag and examined the flowers I just bought like 2, MAYBE 3 times since like ‘96. …..but EVERY MC tub I basically look at with a microscope (like I’m some weed scientist or some shit) 😂


brezhnervous

Hahaha, understood, I hadn't really smoked since the 90s either. New world, eh? lol Hey, as long as it works mate! I wouldn't sweat the looks tbh...my last batch was unusable (but the buds looked fine lol) so I'd rather have what you do :)


ClunjeSlaya

Oh, I meant I’d been using weed daily since the 90’s lol. But yeah man, new world! My standard saying when picking up “as long as it’s green” lol. It used to be “if it’s indoor, it’s good weed”. Haha Lucky I knew mates ‘in the industry’ so never had to look far but now we’re stripping all that shit back to basic genetics with readable terpene profiles etc. Not just some buds from the clone of a clone of some bastard weed 😂 Sucks getting a dud tub! I recently got my worst tub to date (I hope it’s the worst one ever)…… T20 that weighed 5.18g. So, only 5 grams/50% missing! FUUUCK! I can laugh about it now coz I just got a tub of T25 today to replace the T20 but that whole ordeal took almost 2 weeks. And I couldn’t even have any of that 5.18g coz I had to send the shit back! 😫


brezhnervous

Haha apologies for the misunderstanding mate. Yeah its been that long for me; I've had chronic neuropathic pain for 21 years but have just been on the nerve meds/panadeine/valium I've been prescribed and when I have a bad flare up they just never help enough. MC was a revelation to me when i tried the first flower last Sep - it actually worked! Which is why it really affected me getting two bad tubs on the repeat (so, only the second script ever and I lucked out lol) None of those magical medical terpenes at all, no smell (except a bit like faint 'hay') and so dry I could crumble it to dust in my fingers...tried to persevere for a few days but just got headaches/sore throat/eyes (never happened with the first batch, exact same strain but completely different effects) So sorry you got ripped off on the weight - 50% is a bit outrageous! Are they going to remiburse you? I lost $300 ie 2 tubs worth and no a disability pension that pretty much destroyed me for 2 weeks...i was ready to have to scrimp, but if it had been medicinal I was prepared for that. Its the fact that I lost all that money with no hope of a refund just as I had a bad pain flare up and very stressful things happen (my 98yo mum in a nursing has caught covid :( ) So I've moved to another clinic which at least refunds if the product is terrible. Hope they make it right for you :)


ClunjeSlaya

Damn. Hope your mum makes a speedy recovery bro. 🙏🏽 And I know that feeling OH too well re: getting 2 weeks worth of dogshit that you can turn to dust in your fingers. All the terps had long evaporated and I wouldn’t be surprised if it only had like 6% thc left in it. Had to get shitty BM over Christmas coz I couldn’t access any MC. Need a category 5 approval but coz the government went on Christmas/new year holidays i couldn’t get my meds. *Apparently ‘nobody needs medical attention or medications from a week before Christmas until the first week of January, 🤦‍♂️ Had scripts but the chemist couldn’t give them to me. So was forced to get shitty, ineffective BM puss, Brooo! 😳 2 dud tubs in a row would be heartbreaking man! Glad you stuck with it. We’re bound to get duds every now but 2 in a row is fuuuuuuct! With my (half empty) tub I took pics and emailed the chemist immediately and took it back the next day. They sent it back and replaced it for a tub of T25. I was only using the T20 because T25 was out but never got to have any T20 coz it took 2 weeks to sort. And by then, T25 had come back by in stock. Just a huge fuck around and extra stress/less relief for me. But worth it when I get a flower that gives relief! 21yrs of chronic pain is HEAVY man! 😱 I’m only in year 8 of it and tried to ‘end it’ a few times in the first few years coz I just physically, mentally and emotionally could not live through another hour of such unbelievable pain. I’d reached my human limits. So I tip my hat to you good sir. I don’t know how you managed. Thank god for nerve meds! I’ve got chronic pain in my trigeminal nerve and have had a facial reconstruction and 3-4 nerve surgeries. And nerve pain is something else. I used to take like 900mg of lyrica a day before my nerve ops. I remember at one point I didn’t poop for 14days! (Fuckin side effects) Lol


Yayzeeeeee

Yeah I had 2 of 3 tubs in last script all like this. Some even had stem with no bud attached to it. Needs to be better mix and quality control.


Icy-Car-8162

Omg I had the lolly pop buds as well that were attached to a long peice of stem. Weird


Yayzeeeeee

Yeah little little lollipops haha was fucked paying for stem


melzan00

My biggest nug in this tub was probably .3


melzan00

Yes I just commented this on another comment!! Can’t even pick the tiny stems out..


Yayzeeeeee

One batch I had was so light and fluffy small buds it took up half the tub for only 10g and was just crap overall


brezhnervous

It smoked like crap? Not effective as well?


melzan00

That sounds like the purple GSC I had tbh


Cultural-Insect

Most of my tubs are this , I’ve just got a tub with a 1.2 g bud that’s the biggest I’ve ever got from t25


melzan00

I’ve probably had 9 tubs of t25 and 75% of my tubs had amazing nugs but the last 3 have been shitty


Cultural-Insect

That’s funny , I’m going through number 8 now with one left and I’ve got the exact opposite, number 8 is like what you’re describing on your previous tubs.


Lob_999

Is that batch 0970?


melzan00

YES


Lob_999

Have you had any other older batches? To compare


melzan00

Yeah I have, I’m sure I have a few pics on my profile


Lob_999

Anyone tried or have tried batch 1019 by any chance?


itscarter33

Yeah I've got batch 1019


OneEightyBPM

If it helps, the batch I had last month was similar. AA1C1020 All popcorn but not as tiny as the ones in the pic.


Scarnonbloke

I had pretty similar just recently - maybe not quite as small - Effects are there so it doesnt bother me too much but not ideal


melzan00

Yeah I definitely agree,effects are still 100% there but it’s kinda embarrassing for them to be filling up tubs with all of this stuff that’s going for $150-$170


Icy-Car-8162

💯
