Alien Labs | Misfits Biskante | 14G Flower

Alien Labs Misfits Biskante 14G Flower: Half Ounce of Biskante Near Columbus Circle, Manhattan If you have bought Biskante from us in the eighth jar and keep coming back for another, the Alien Labs Misfits Biskante 14G Flower is the bigger option. It is half an ounce of the same named strain, sold in a Misfits bag. Cannadreams stocks it at 862 9th Ave, on the corner of West 56th Street in Hell's Kitchen, licensed and open to walk-ins. Who Alien Labs is Alien Labs is the California brand started by Ted Lidie, run alongside its sister label Connected. Its reputation rests on indoor flower and on in-house breeding: big phenotype hunts, lots of seeds popped from a cross, and only a single keeper given a name. Because cannabis cannot cross state lines legally, the Alien Labs flower sold here is grown and packed inside New York by a licensed producer, and that producer is named on the state label. The Misfits bag, up close Misfits is an Alien Labs line. The New York packaging is a black Alien Labs bag with a round orange MISFITS sticker and the net weight, 14G (0.5oz). What you will not see on the front is the word Biskante. The strain is listed only on the state compliance label. Make that label your first stop when you pick the bag up, and ask us if you cannot find the line. Biskante's family tree Biskante is commonly reported as Biscotti crossed with Melonade, an Alien Labs breeding project. Listings from the brand describe the Biscotti parent as a numbered cut, Biscotti #6. Reviewers commonly describe the smell as nutty with citrus and a vanilla edge, and the flavor as sweeter and fruitier once it burns. Take that as a starting point, since harvests vary. Our menu lists Biskante as a sativa. Jar or bag: choosing between our two Biskante options Our menu lists Biskante in two sizes: a 3.5 gram jar and this 14 gram Misfits bag. The jar is the better pick if you are new to the strain or want to see the buds behind glass before committing. The bag makes sense once you know you like it and want four times the flower with fewer trips. Remember that they are separate packaging runs, so the packaging date on each label can differ. Compare the two dates at the counter if freshness is what you care about most. Sharing a half ounce without arguments A lot of half ounces in this neighborhood are bought for two: roommates in a Clinton walk-up, a couple splitting costs. The fair way to do it is to split it right away into two small jars, one each, rather than passing the bag back and forth for weeks. Each person opens only their own jar, so the shared flower is not exposed every time someone wants a bowl. Label the jars with the strain and date. It sounds fussy, but it settles who finished what. Grinding a nutty, sweet strain Aroma leaves ground flower fast, and the citrus side of a strain like this tends to fade first. Grind only what you will use in the next sitting. For a joint, a medium grind rolls more evenly than a fine powder. For a dry herb vaporizer, medium usually works best too, since powder can pass through the screen. Clean your grinder every couple of weeks so old resin does not mix into a fresh bag. Keeping fourteen grams in good shape Do not leave the flower in the bag once you are home. Move it into a glass jar with a tight seal, and keep that jar in a dark cupboard, not on top of the fridge or near a hissing radiator. In a dry steam-heated building, a two-way humidity pack keeps the buds from turning brittle. In a humid summer, open the jar once a week and check that nothing feels damp. Pickup and walk-ins Come by in person any time we are open; we are a few minutes from Times Square and Central Park South. If you are short on time, order online for in-store pickup and the bag will be waiting at the counter. Either way, we check ID for everyone. Buying from the regulated market Smoke shops and bodegas that sell unlabeled flower are outside New York's legal system. Every product on our shelves comes through the regulated market with state-required lab testing and labeling, so you know what is in the bag and when it was packed.
