FLOWER REVIEW: Greenleaf Delivery/Baller Billy Seeds XXX OG strain

Nebulously regulated and unencumbered by brick and mortar, delivery services tend to fly under the radar in the medical cannabis world. Unlike visiting a cannabis dispensary, you can’t view and smell the buds before you buy, so there is little option but to trust an online menu. Standards and practices vary wildly, and there are horror stories of bait-and-switch tactics and exorbitant minimums.

Sacramento’s own Greenleaf Delivery, on the other hand, is a model of consistency, convenience and customer satisfaction. If you don’t believe me, check out their WeedMaps reviews (seriously, it’s insane). They open at 8 a.m. and their perks are better than any other local delivery service I’ve seen. Veterans, firefighters and first responders get a 15 percent discount and new patients receive a free 4-gram eighth.

If that’s not enough, Greenleaf Delivery and their partner Patriot Farms are the sole distributors of Baller Billy Seeds, including a sativa/indica hybrid strain known as Grateful Breath. The thick Grateful Breath buds are a crystal-covered camo green decked with plentiful orange pistils, and they give off a pungent yet subtle scent of earthy pine.

Although dense and not dry, the buds break apart easily, releasing more of the enticing aroma. The first inhale follows through on the pine and earth flavors promised by the scent, burning clean and tasty, leaving just a little leafy dankness on the tongue between tokes. The effect is clear-headed with a reduction in anxiety, and an uptick in appetite (so long, Cool Ranch Doritos).
