Alien Labs | Misfits Permanent Shade | 14G Flower

Alien Labs Misfits Permanent Shade 14G Flower: Indica Half Ounce Bag, Hell's Kitchen Manhattan The Alien Labs Misfits Permanent Shade 14G Flower is for people who have smoked the Permanent Shade preroll and want to roll their own from a real supply. It is half an ounce of the strain in a Misfits bag, sold at Cannadreams, the licensed dispensary at 862 9th Ave on the corner of West 56th Street in Hell's Kitchen. On our menu it is listed as an indica. From a single joint to fourteen grams We also carry Permanent Shade as a 1 gram preroll. That is the low-commitment way to meet the strain: one joint, sealed in a tube, nothing to grind. This bag is the opposite end. You get fourteen times the flower and full control over how you use it, whether that is your own joints, a bowl, a bong or a dry herb vaporizer. The trade-off is a little prep work and the need for proper storage, which we cover below. Where Permanent Shade comes from Permanent Shade is commonly reported as Permanent Marker crossed with Nightshade. Permanent Marker is credited to Seed Junky Genetics and is itself reported as a Biscotti and Jealousy cross. Sources split on the Nightshade side. Some listings point to Alien Labs' own Nightshade, while a magazine piece credits a Nightshade cut from sister brand Connected. We cannot settle that for you, so we give both. Brand descriptions mention dark green and purple buds with a sharp, marker-like nose over sweeter notes, and reviewers add earth, pepper and citrus. The Misfits packaging Misfits is a line from Alien Labs. The New York version is a black Alien Labs bag with a round orange MISFITS sticker and 14G (0.5oz) printed as the net weight. The strain name is absent from the bag itself. It appears only on the state compliance label, so that label is where you confirm it is Permanent Shade. Check the packaging date there too. Looking at the flower Once you open it, spread a few buds on a clean plate under good light. Color is the first thing to look at with this strain, since dark green with purple patches is how it is commonly described. Then look at trim and resin. Bagged flower may be a little more compressed than jarred flower, and buds may have settled into flatter shapes. That is about the package, not the plant. Smell the bag as soon as it is opened, before the aroma spreads around the room. Rolling your own from a half ounce Rolling from a bag gives you choices a preroll does not: paper size, cone or straight, how much goes in. A few tips. Break buds by hand before grinding so stems come out. Grind medium, not fine, so the joint burns evenly. Pack it firmly enough that it does not canoe. And roll as you go. A tin of joints rolled on Sunday is drier by Thursday than flower kept whole in a sealed jar. Alien Labs, briefly Alien Labs is Ted Lidie's California flower brand, run next to its sister label, Connected. The company breeds in house and keeps only a small number of plants from large seed hunts. Its New York flower is grown and packaged in state by a licensed producer, since cannabis cannot cross state lines legally, and that producer appears on the label. Storage that suits a city apartment Get the flower out of the bag and into glass when you get home. Pick a jar just big enough to hold it so there is little empty air. Keep it in the darkest cabinet you have, away from radiators, sunny windows and the warm top of the fridge. If your apartment is bone dry in winter, add a two-way humidity pack. Keep a smaller jar for daily use so the main one stays shut. Stopping in or picking up Walk-ins are always welcome at 862 9th Ave, close to Columbus Circle, Central Park South and Midtown West. To save time, order online for in-store pickup, then grab it at the counter. Every customer shows a valid ID. The case for the licensed shelf Flower from bodegas and unlicensed smoke shops has no state testing and no reliable label. Every item we sell comes through New York's regulated market with state-required lab testing and labeling, including the packaging date and producer.
