LSO Blackberry

Information

LSO Blackberry is AAAA flower — whole dried buds, not milled, not smalls. Our own listing calls it living soil organic, and that is the label we were handed; we will not build a story on top of it. Nobody handed us a lab result for it, so you will not see a percentage quoted.

Look at the photo first. The buds are chunky and round, closer to knuckles than to spears, and they hold that shape rather than flattening. From a step back the colour reads pale silver-grey — trichome frost, not dust and not dryness. Closer in the green comes back, mint and sage rather than forest, with near-black shadow in the gaps where buds meet. Pistils are short, curled and bright orange, scattered , not bunched at the crown. Trim is tight; one pale stem shows at the left edge.

Five notes, one of them a warning

• The frost is the whole story of this lot — the grey cast in the photo is resin coverage, not a dried-out batch.
• AAAA, whole bud, three weights — the top of our grading band, sold as intact flower at 7G, 14G and 28G.
• Silver from a step back, mint up close — expect that range, not this exact pile.
• Four buyers in ten come back — our repeat rate sits at 43%, which is why we would rather size you right than sell you big.
• Skip it if you want loud — this one reads round and heavy , not sharp, and people who buy flower for a citrus or fuel hit tend to put it down unimpressed.

Picking a weight for LSO Blackberry

Three weights, one lot: 7G, 14G and 28G. Same flower in all three; the only variable is how much comes home. Every weight is priced in CAD on the buy box above. Flower is bagged in 7G and 28G units: a 7G order comes as one bag, 14G as two 7G bags, and 28G as a single 28G bag.

Nobody regrets buying too little.

Start small if the strain is new to you. Dense, frosty flower gives up its brightest smell fastest once a large amount has been opened and re-opened over weeks. Free delivery and free Ground shipping apply to orders over $150 CAD; under that, local delivery is a $10 flat fee, mail orders pay the shipping rate shown at checkout, and the minimum order is $60.

If this is not the one, we would send you to Island Pink first, since it sits at the same heavy end of the shelf. LSO Mango Haze goes the other direction entirely and comes up bright where this comes up dark. Pink Rockstar lands between the two, and it is the safer guess when you cannot decide.

Why the same strain smells different from one lot to the next

Seeds from one cross do not make identical plants. A packet gives a spread of phenotypes; a grower picks the one they like and clones it, so two growers running the same name are usually running two different picks. Smell varies between picks far more than a shared name suggests.

What happens after harvest moves it as much again. Flower dried slowly and cool, then rested for weeks, keeps more of the light, sharp top notes; a fast warm dry leaves the earthier end behind. Storage does the rest: every time you open it up again, the lightest aromatics go first. It is why flower that smelled loud on day one reads rounder three weeks later.

Asked and answered

Delivered, or mailed?

Two different services. Local GTA delivery lands within 2 hours of order confirmation, 12PM to 10PM, 365 days a year. Outside the GTA we ship Canada-wide by mail order, paid by card or e-Transfer.

What does LSO Blackberry smell like?

Dark and sweet — berry over a damp, earthy base, with a little pepper on the exhale. One subjective read, not a spec. It gives up far more once a bud is broken than it does sitting whole, so crack one before you decide what you think.

How much should I buy?

7G, 14G or 28G. First time with it, take the 7G; you can order again the same night.

How is it different from Blackberry Pie?

They share a berry name and the same AAAA band, and that is roughly where an honest comparison ends. Blackberry Pie is a separate line off a separate lot, so the difference that matters in a given week is which came in more recently. Ask before you order and we will tell you.

How do I pay?

Pay by Interac e-Transfer, which carries a 5% fee, or cash on delivery on local orders; a mail order can also be paid by card. Every delivery is 19+ with government-issued photo ID checked at the door. Every order includes a free gift.
