BOUKET | GMO Punch | 3.5G Flower

BOUKET GMO Punch 3.5G Flower: Hybrid Eighth from a Hell's Kitchen Dispensary, Manhattan GMO Punch is a cross of two strains with very different reputations, one known for a savory, funky nose and the other for a sweet, fruity one. You can find the BOUKET GMO Punch 3.5G Flower at Cannadreams, the licensed dispensary at 862 9th Ave, on the corner of West 56th Street in Hell's Kitchen. It is listed as a hybrid on our menu. Meet the parents GMO Punch is commonly reported as GMO crossed with Purple Punch, and Leafly describes it as an indica-leaning hybrid. Each parent has a well-documented story. GMO, short for Garlic Mushroom Onion, is commonly reported as a Chemdog and Girl Scout Cookies cross. The nickname says it all: its aroma is commonly described as savory and garlicky rather than sweet. Purple Punch is commonly reported as Larry OG crossed with Granddaddy Purple, and its aroma is usually described in terms of grape and berry. Put them together and you get a strain name that promises both sides. How much of each shows up depends on the cut and the batch, so open the jar and judge for yourself. The brand on the label BOUKET (the brand writes it Bouket, with an accent on the e) is a New York flower company named after a piece of Harlem slang: in the Prohibition years, "bouquet" meant cannabis to anyone in the know. The company says it is minority-owned. It concentrates on flower, offered as Big Buds and Smalls, plus joints, and puts the line "Give yourself your flowers" on its packaging. Savory strains and shared walls If GMO is in the family tree, assume the smell will carry. That matters in Manhattan, where many of us live in buildings with thin walls, shared air shafts and neighbors who notice everything. Some habits that help: Move the eighth into a glass jar with a gasket lid as soon as you get home. Keep the jar in a closed cabinet or a smell-proof bag, not on an open shelf. Grind over a tray and close the grinder right away. Rinse your pipe or bong after each use, since stale resin can smell worse than fresh flower. If you consume where the law allows, ventilate, and take it outside your building's shared spaces. Reading a hybrid label Hybrid on a menu simply means the strain has both indica and sativa ancestry, which describes nearly everything grown today. It is a category, not a prediction of how anything will feel. If you are choosing between hybrids, the more useful questions are about aroma, bud structure and which parents you have liked before. If you have enjoyed other Cookies-family or Purple-family strains, GMO Punch is an easy one to put on your list. How long an eighth keeps Flower does not spoil overnight, but it does fade. Kept sealed, dark and at room temperature, an eighth holds up well for several weeks. Opened ten times a day on a sunny windowsill, it goes flat much faster. Avoid the radiator, the top of the refrigerator, and the refrigerator itself. In August humidity, a two-way humidity pack keeps buds from going soft; in January steam heat, it keeps them from going crispy.

Why licensed Bodegas and smoke shops selling flower are not part of New York's legal market, and their product is untested and often unlabeled. Everything we sell, GMO Punch included, comes through the state's regulated system with state-required lab testing and labeling.
