Stuck in the Middle with You

TF Island Pink by 7Green Grows (Shelter Craft) packaged on June 7, 2021, cost $59.99 for 7G (SMALLS) with 21.2% THC 5.3% Total Terpenes and an earthy piney herbal scent.  Our test amount was 0.26 grams.

After inhalation ended, the “high” begins in earnest as TF Island Pink unfolds with dense euphoria to silence and transport us to Indica Land.   There is a blissful body tranquilising effect encapsulated by a dreamy creative flow.  Fifteen minutes into the session, we find ourselves tranquilised in a euphoric fog of blissful calmness unaware of the passage of time.  It’s time to sit back and relax.

Half an hour later, TF Island Pink is a functional tranquilising body “high” with a balanced expression of euphoria, blissful calmness, joyfulness and mild cerebral stimulation.   Fans of couch lock “highs” may be able to relate to TF Island Pink as a milder and more blissful interpretation of Gorilla Glue #4.

Activity pairing is best in the evening time slots.  Not a “Show Opener” or a “Closer for the Evening,” TF Island Pink shines “somewhere in the middle” of the evening rotation.

Conclusion

TF Island Pink by 7Green Grows (Shelter Craft) is a blissful Gorilla Glue #4 delivering a balance “high.”  This terpenes rich rendition of TF Island Pink delivered a medium full spectrum experience with enjoyable blissful and cerebral expressions.

THC:  21.2%

Total Terpenes:  5.3%

Cost:  $59.99 for 7 grams (SMALL)

Would we buy this again?  Yes.  While TF Island Pink is available recreationally on the OCS for $44.95 for 3.5 grams, we paid $10 more at Shelter Market and got twice as much.  The bad news is Shelter Market shelves are almost empty.

On an investment note, Shelter Market is a victim of their success as their online store shelves is only a third of what was offered 3 months ago.   Clearly, the Cannabis market can be vibrant with strong market demand.  We need more micro-craft growers.
