Review: Lightsky Farms - Pot of Gold (A St. Patrick's Day Exclusive)
By Gas & Middies
Hey guys!
In today’s review, we’ve covering a special dab flight box that Lightsky Farms released as a St. Patrick’s Day Exclusive.
It’s a cool concept, where you get to experience the differences between cured resin, live resin, and live rosin all from the same producer! (with some rare strains included as well)
Here is the rundown:
Box
Cured Resin - Lime OG
Lime OG (Cured Resin): Lime OG is an evenly balanced hybrid strain. The popular theory is that this strain is a cross between OG Kush and Lime Skunk. Currently, Exotic Genetix cultivates this strain by crossing Lime Skunk with Triple OG. As a solid hybrid, Lime OG Kush seems to harmoniously blend all aspects of the cannabis plant to help the user feel uplifted and relaxed simultaneously as consumers have reported. The high has a slowly building effect, washing over you and leaving you feeling totally energized with an influx of creative motivation. A relaxing body high comes next, filling you with a sense of ease and calm that has you kicked back in no time at all. This makes Lime OG Kush both an excellent daytime strain capable of sparking energy and creativity, or nighttime strain to unwind after a long day. This bud has a sweet and sour citrusy lime flavor with a lightly spicy pine exhale. - AllBud

Review
👁️ Look
I’m a fan of the look on this. It’s a great consistency to dab with and looks like a darker colored version of live resin products I’ve seen in the past.
👃 Smell
This stuff stanks! You instantly get a hit of the powerful lime aroma that can be quite polarizing between heads (I’m quite a fan!).
👅 Taste
Tastes exactly like it smells! Has a nice gassiness on the exhale.
Rating
Overall, this was a great introduction into cured resin for me. It checks the boxes for look, smell, & taste.
I’m a fan of lime terps, but if you aren’t, you may disagree with me on this one.

Live Resin - Alaskan Purple
Alaskan Purple (Live Resin): Alaskan Purple is a rare indica dominant hybrid strain created through crossing the classic Kush X an unknown Brazilian sativa Although its true heritage is unknown, this gorgeous bud is thought to be a member of the Purple family due to its intense coloring.The flavor is sweet, with a light earthy overtone that’s accented by rich spicy berries and herbs. The Alaskan Purple high is pretty mellow in nature, although its effects tend to last a few hours at a time. It starts in the head with a lifted effect that fills your mind with a sense of soaring happiness, easing away negative and racing thoughts and replacing them with lighthearted bliss. As your mind lifts, your body will begin to settle into a deeply relaxing state that won’t affect your energy level too much at first before dropping you off into pure sedation and ease. - AllBud

👁️ Look
Good looking live resin! Nice glistening orange color. Decent amount of sauce as well.
👃 Smell
Smells amazing! Unique terps that are difficult to describe. Smells almost like a creamy lavender with a hint of tropical fruit.
👅 Taste
Taste is true to the smell. I get more creaminess with the taste. Pleasant sweetness on palate during exhale.
Rating
We have unique terps from a unique strain. Look, smell, & taste are all great.
I hope to run accross this one again!

Live Rosin - Tropicanna Cookies
Tropicana Cookies (Live Rosin): Tropicana Cookies is a sativa dominant hybrid strain created through a cross of the infamous Girl Scout Cookies X Tangie strains. This bright bud packs a super delicious sour citrus high with a slightly sweet cookie exhale. The Tropicana Cookies high is just as eye-opening as the flavor, with long-lasting effects that will get you up off the couch and moving in no time at all. You’ll feel an energetic onset at the start of the high, filling both mind and body with tingly happiness and a sense of creative motivation. A touch of relaxation comes next, leaving your physical state calm while your mind soars higher and higher into the stratosphere. - AllBud

Review
👁️ Look
The consistency is much drier than I’d typically like to see. The color is decent, if a little darker than I’ve seen from other quality rosin brands (Eastside Alchemey & The Fifth Age).
It may have been stored improperly.
👃 Smell
Good smell. Slight orange. Wasn’t overpowering and seemed lacking compared to the Lime OG & Alaskan Purple.
👅 Taste
Taste is true to smell, if a little lighter than expected. Good taste, just nothing mind blowing.
Rating
This one felt lacking. With the cursed resin & live resin before it, this one needed to knock it out of the park to keep the momentum.
Instead it hit a single…

Outro
Overall, the Lightsky Farms - Pot of Gold box was a mixed bag. Both the cured & live resin were gas. However, I was left a little disappointed with the live rosin.
In terms of quality, it typically goes:
Cured Resin -> Live Resin -> Live Rosin
In terms of price, each level up is typically double the cost of the one below it. For example (pricing used for illustration):
Cursed Resin ($10) -> Live Resin ($20) -> Live Rosin ($40)
Going off of this, to justify the price, the quality of live rosin compared to live resin, would have to be at least 2x better. Comparing cured resin to live resin, it would have to be 4x better.
From my review, I couldn’t justify the increase in cost for this particular live rosin product, compared to the cured resin & live resin offerings.
As 2/3 of the box was gas, I’d say the box overall was worth it.
What do you guys think?
