Welcome to the annual Ganja Guide, where we list our picks for the hottest gifts for this holiday season.
Earth Extracts
Earth Extract Badder
Strain: Toxic Society
THC: 68.52%
CBD: 0%
Dominance: Hybrid
Strain: Strawberry Punch
THC: 75.95%
CBD: 0.15%
Dominance: Hybrid
I’ve been extremely impressed with the concentrates coming out of Earth Extracts, and these Badder strains are no exception. Sampling these both in a rig, as well as a nectar collector, produced wonderful results.
The Toxic Society flavor profile was definitely more earthy and piney, while the Strawberry Punch had more of a citrus fruit profile and was especially dank. The flavor profile was very pleasant.
The effects, however, are really the star of these Badder strains. Euphoria is the word when describing the overall feeling. These are both mood boosters and can turn even the worst season of the Walking Dead into an enjoyable experience, as I can testify. The Strawberry Punch definitely had more of the stoney feel, where the Toxic Society really inspires the go-to vibe of getting something done with a smile.
Recommend these for anyone looking to try out concentrates, as the effects, while powerful, are within reason with the appropriate dose, but also these pack enough punch for the concentrate connoisseur in your life. Pair this with a new dab rig, and there will be nothing but smiles under those blinking Christmas lights.

High Score Comboz Infused Four-Pack Prerolls 2.4 grams
Strain: Strawberry Mo’Nana x Pineapple Express
THC: 32.84%
CBD: .10%
Dominance: Sativa-Hybrid
High Scorez Comboz come loaded with indoor-grown flower and an added kick of High Terpene Full Spectrum Extract Sauce. Conveniently packaged in a pack of four prerolls, each infused preroll has 0.5 grams of flower and 0.1 grams of sauce. Powered by iLAVA Infusion.
These Comboz in the new .6-gram pre-rolls format are a perfect size to get the party going anywhere. The premium flower mixed with the sauce makes for a truly delicious smoking experience. The mix of Strawberry Mo’Nana and Pineapple Express makes for a fruitier flavor profile, and the sauce in there gives an extra little kick of that earthy sweet.
The .5 gram shared was enough to get everybody where they needed to be in a four-person circle of regular smokers, which is nice, as you aren’t worried about putting anything out halfway. The effects were on the more social and mood-booster side of things, which made for a nice time for everyone who took a toke.
I’d recommend this gift to anyone who loves their joints, moon rocks, or is curious about different products out there, as these really get the job done in the best way. The sauce isn’t too much to throw someone into outer space unwillingly. On the other hand, if you’re taking these down solo, the sky’s the limit. Take down two of these solo, and you may be riding in Santa’s sleigh!

FEEL is perfectly portable, and great for on-the-go relief when you need it!
The first impression is just taking the product out of the beautiful packaging. The roll-on is convenient. It spares the mess of using a cream while being completely portable, fitting easily into a pocket or purse. The aroma is that of a blend of essential oils that is equally relaxing and pleasant.
I used it after a workout when I was feeling a little sore. While I expected some effects, the sheer amount of relief was the most surprising. It packs a healing punch for those experiencing soreness or achy pain.
I’d recommend this as a great gift to anyone with an active lifestyle or someone dealing with aches and pains to help take some of that soreness right off!
