95 points out of 100 Wood Wide Farms in Mendocino, CA grows small, 10-pound batches of the best from America’s cannabis heartland for the adult-use market in the Bay Area and beyond. This winter, they’ve turned out a superb run of a strain just called “#23.” It’s bred by a 3rd-generation Mendocino County, CA grower 707caseyberns, co-founder of Sticky Genes—a cross of (Lava Cake x Dosidos) x Pluto. Wood Wide’s run of #23 gives me a lot of Marshmallow OG vibes, and I love it. The OG and dessert parentage really shows here. It’s green bud—dense, resinous, glistening and angular—evoking a Chem or a Sour. The nose is maximum marshmallow sweet jet fuel, and it’s very sticky and pungent in a grinder. The taste carries through, and the pronounced and long effects made it a favorite from mid-day into night.

95 points out of 100 : Lovers of stanky gas strains, we got a banger. Wood Wide High Craft is working on some Headbanger, which we list as a Sour Diesel x Biker Kush cross from Karma Genetics. That certainly tracks. Karma knows their sours and kushes. Wood Wide executes at the near-flawless level for this dense, resinous, light-dark green, sour kush-type strain. It has a ton of Biker Kush caryophyllene terps —just super-pungent, and aggressive. A focused, euphoric, and uplifting high-octane hybrid that pairs with strength-training, hiking, a DAVID DOWNS, beach hang, or rock show.

Mendocino County’s Wood Wide High Craft has been making waves from the moment they arrived on the scene in the fall of 2022. One of the region’s only indoor cultivators, they have been ripping through harvests and delivering incredible quality for such a young brand. And one of the first cultivars to come out of their newly-licensed, state-of-the-art facility netted them a big win: the award for highest terpene content for flower at the 2022 Emerald Cup.

While growing, the viper cookies form dense, resinous flowers with good inter-nodal spacing that fade to purple during the last weeks of flower. The dominant Terpenes are Myrcene and beta-caryophyllene, followed by linalool. The dried flowers routinely test 23%-30% THC, with total terpenes ranging to just over 2%. Viper Cookies is a sturdy plant that finishes quickly while testing high and always delivers potency when smoked. When growing, it’s hard not to see the dense, resinous flowers and “what strain is that?” Its terpene profile is truly unique and doesn’t smell like anything else on the market, making it stand out both aromatically and visually.

Every flavor in Wood Wide High Craft's lineup right now is an absolute terp-filled treat. For Hall of Flowers, these guys came with their best foot forward of course, but also ready to rock with a crazy line up of Mendo Crumble (Emerald Cup winner for highest terpenes), Tropical … and now Dutch Treat (crazy terps, she’s the real deal), Cowgirl Cookies, and Pleazure (my personal favorite) all on deck and ready for store shelves. Without a doubt you can expect big things for Wood Wide on the way.

The struggle between small farmers and corporate cannabis can be traced back to when California voters approved Proposition 64 in 2016. Since the 1960s, cannabis farming has been the economic lifeblood of many Northern California communities, especially those in the counties of Humboldt, Trinity, and Mendocino, collectively known as the Emerald Triangle. Small farmers were given a measure of protection when the Compassionate Care Act, or Prop. 215, legalized medical marijuana in 1996, giving rise to a robust, entrenched “gray market” that lasted for decades.
