Title: CaliTrees Vendor Thread
Post by: CaliTrees on March 15, 2012, 09:30 pm
Hey everybody,

I'm a new vendor to SR but not new to mail order marijuana.  I hope to focus on more bulk MoM orders.  Eventually I plan on vending bubble hash, BHO, seeds and rooted clones.  But for now I will start with buds only.

To create some feedback and get some review I will offer a killer deal on 3.5g.  I will also offer a good deal on a mix and match ounce 28g.  These will be for a limited time.  Check my vendor page tonight or tomorrow for these initial offerings.

All strains were grown indoors in organic soil with organic liquid & teas under HPS.  No pesticides or fungicides in bloom.  Only OMRI organic sprays in veg (neem and spinosad) for preventative measures.  No bugs, no molds or mildews throughout. All taken until ripe, flushed properly, hang dried for 7-10 days, hand manicured and cured for at least a month.  I don't have a personal stash, we are all smoking from the same jars of nugs. A lot of these buds are currently in multiple clubs and delivery services and they are literally top shelf nugs getting $60/8th and more for delivery.  I hope my prices are not too high, they are very close to what I get locally.  They just can't take it all.


Here is my current menu with extensive photos taken today.  *except flash photos- they were taken a few days ago


Green Crack - 9 weeks bloom / 4 week cure

She is also known as Dream Queen and Cush.  Dream queen is the name in the MMJ community as there is a negative stigma associated with the term "crack".  Cush is the name the breeder, CecilC, gave it but it wasn't widely adopted due to confusion with "kush". Green crack is an old school skunk#1 clone only cut that came from Athens, OH. This is my flagship strain I've grown for many years.  I love her.  The smell is very tropical and fruity; a smell you will never forget.  She was taken longer than usual this run for more amber trichs.  All dence frosty nugs.  She's a hybrid that leans sativa but the additional amber adds a nice mix.

Tahoe OG Kush - 10 weeks bloom / 4 week cure

Not much to say here that hasn't already been said.  This is the OG Kush cut that started it all in 1993 in Tahoe, CA.  A direct descendant from the 91 chemdog cut, It's a narcotic indica with that "lemon pledge fuel" smell.  Medicinally it is used for pain and sleep management.  It's a long blooming low yielding plant but she's worth it.

The White x Fire OG Kush - 10 weeks bloom / 4 week cure

If you're familar this strain this particualr cut is Aligee's #1 cut aka WiFi#1.  Also a narcotic indica with a kushy aroma.  The strain was bred by ograskal and is highly sought after.  The White is also know as Triangle kush.  It is a three way og kush cross with very stable genes.  There are multiple different OG kush cuts out there called the fire OG kush cut.  All are good, and in case this is ograskals fire og kush cut.

Hells Angels Kush - 10 weeks bloom / 16 week cure

As a result of the extended cure this strain is a bit dry.  The trim is not as tight as I wanted (n00b trimmers) so the price will reflect these two items.  I have a hard time rating it anything other than AAA even though it's dry.  AA may be fair though.  Hells Angels kush is a bubba cross that was grown commercially by HA- as the story goes.  Yet another indica.  I enjoy couchlock and this strain will do just that.  There is some purple coming out in a few buds but you'll have to look to find it, not that much.

Bubba Kush - 10 weeks bloom / 16 week cure

As a result of the extended cure this strain is a bit dry.  This one isn't trimmed as tight as I wanted, it's a bit leafy too.  Price reflects this.  This is the pre98 cut.  You guessed it, another indica.  A medium height plant with dense golf ball nugs.  The leaf:calyx ratio is high but they are all covered in trichs.  The trim from this was yielding a high percentage of BHO.

Price are on the high side...you have Christy Nugs at around $280 after SR fees (for an ounce), Meganug at $300.

However, those guys can't keep their inventory in stock. There is definitely room for more vendors.

However, you may want to consider doing some free or really cheap grams to get some feedback and reviews...paying $65 for 3.5 grams isn't going to get anybody to try you out. If you had 30 transactions and all positive feedback, I'm pretty sure you will be able to find a customer base here.

The buds do look nice but maybe not as manicured as some.
Title: Re: CaliTrees Vendor Thread
Post by: CaliTrees on March 15, 2012, 11:10 pm
Thanks for the feedback.  I checked out the other vendors and I did notice my prices were a bit higher than theirs.  However they are very close to what I get locally.  I do have a little wiggle room when it comes to orders of more than an ounce.  I would like to offer cheap grams on SR but I'm not sure that will attract the type of buyer I'm looking for.  I would like to offer grams to reputable SR members that buy in OZ+ but it seems sketchy for me to hit them up and ask for their shipping nfo to send em a sample pack.  I was thinking of updating my OZ sample pack to be more competitively priced for first time buyers only. Thanks again for the reply, I definitely don't mind the criticism so long as it is founded.

Sure, but this way you don't have the exposure of dealing face to face.

That said, people will pay a premium for high quality. If your bud turns out to be really impressive, people will pay what you're asking.

Oh no doubt, selling grams to do anything other than get people to try out your bud quality when you're a new vendor is for the birds. Once you have a thread where people are reviewing your bud, and repeat customers, and a reputation, you'll be able to stick to ounce+ quantities with no problem.

Yeah it's a weird thing....for example I personally do not take samples for security reasons. However, several do. If you message Uniwiz and post in the Cannabis sticky, you will be guided in a good direction for getting reviews that people trust.

It isn't that bad doing face to face since it's all prop 215 clubs and delivery services.  The problem is finding good buyers.  I will have to visit a half dozen and get lowballed 5 out of 6 times before I found a place that is in my range. The ones I found can't take it all though.  The quality is great.  Top notch.  At least I think so and I think others will agree.

I have a few shipments out in transit right now.  I have a good friend that is a known vendor on here that might chime in too.  So hopefully I'll get some feedback soon.

Welcome!

I hope to god you are legit, your legitimacy seems to be there and your buds look nice. Yes these prices are a tad (and I mean a tad) high but quality is all that matters. Honestly, your prices seem fine to me if for top notch. These buds looks great and you offer bulk? Even better! I hope you are the real deal, if you are you will have plenty of customers who order the amounts you wish to sell (oz+) including myself. I encourage people to try him and please leave reviews, this seller looks like something reaaaal nice for all of us.

Thank you for offering your services here, be safe and have thick skin and you'll make it :). All you need is some nice reviews, I hope to try you soon!

ps. As a connoisseur I love the mix and match idea. Nice one!

Also CLONES? Man now that is real tempting to fire up my setup again...a very nice option, just be safe.

Why thank you, I'm glad I'm appreciated ;)
I agree with most of your review as well. ;D
We also have to find some cheap mid weed as well, like the stuff Paperchasing had.

$70-75 for a 8 is a little high to start. When you add all the fee thats what it's coming to.
I bought anyhow cause I don't do freebies for the same reason you don't.
Those prices are LTTM quality, and even she didn't sell 8 that high.
The SR fees are really eating into the vendors profits.

As far as helping vendors, he did contact me.
I gave him my opinion on the samples.
And warned him about are 8, and sample scammers.

We do need more vendors, and their different grow cycles. 8)

When he gets up to QP's which is what he wants to sell he is competitive.
However if your not sharing with friends, a QP is storage for me. I like having lots of certain strains.
The OZ price makes me look at other new vendors as well, selling kush at $220 sale, $265 regular.

Packing method should be interesting cause nobody beatst Christy Nugs.
I truly mean she  is my hero. Not that I don't love all my vendors.

Title: Re: CaliTrees Vendor Thread
Post by: THConnoisseur on March 16, 2012, 12:22 am
Yes, packaging must look good.

His quality looks better than anyone on the SR just from the pictures and I've smoked a lot of bud.  He is also offering top grade strains. His pricing is perfectly fine and competitive in my opinion.

As long as his packaging is as good as meganugs or christy, I think prices are perfect. Those are top grade nugs guys...at least the pictures are.

Again thank you for offering your wares and ignore the price complainers, the price is fine. I don't know why anyone is complaining. Give me quality and safety and I'll pay the price for it. Try his quality before doing so, I have smoked many of those strains and those buds look right on. Please don't compare commercial strains like 'blue dream' to  real clones like tahoe og and crosses like white x fire og who have a small to medium yield and are really only grown by growers who care. Top of the line strains. Very nice stuff.

Welcome CaliTrees! You seem to have a great selection of quality nugs, very indica dominant menu though. I would love to see a good sativa on there as well  ;). Prices are slightly higher than most, but the quality does appear to be there. Do you get your buds lab tested? A solid THC % would certainly justify your prices. I'm not one for THC numbers, but I'm sure many other members like the assurance. Anyway, The White x Fire OG Kush looks absolutely delectable, I'll have to give that a try sometime  :D

Hmmmm the lab tests like LTTM use to do?
Very impressive, and raises the value.
Looks like dispensary cannabis.

I do not get it lab tested.  I'm not sure if any of the places it is vended to gets it tested either.  That is something I will definitely look into.  I know there are labs in Colorado that are well known for doing the testing properly.  From what I understand there are multiple ways to test the product and they will each yield slightly varying results.  But if everybody tests their product the same way then the results are relative to eachother.  I think it is under a hundred dollars and they only need a gram or two of product.  This would have definitely helped me get past these initial entry hurdles.  Maybe in the future I will get this done.  I'm going to look into it for sure.  Thanks for the suggestion.

That was mean.
Christy is my favorite.
I have nicely explained why, she is not taking new customers.
I know she nervous too..
At least friendlyoutlaw understands the supply/demand issue.

Ok guys get ready for new rules.
Basically the ones that want to sell OZ's, QP's, and such will build a base, then go stealth.
This means no new users.
So you better build your base, and quit bitching.
Guess what? Christy had a great idea.
Better yet LTTM already did it, screw us.
Don't blame her(LTTM) a bit.
If you think LTTM ain't selling her wares, you live in a bubble. Hopefully filled with hash.

So makes friends with your new vendor.
Hope he works out.

If you what 8's and 1/4's see Lexisadie.

Post by: shock1171 on March 16, 2012, 05:29 am
christys stuff is not overated. your dumb if you think that. Secondly, these buds look very fire, but the prices are high for QPS... lowe them to 900-950 and you have yourself a lot of sales coming from me
Title: Re: CaliTrees Vendor Thread
Post by: CaliTrees on March 16, 2012, 05:38 am
I've only heard good things about Christy.  When the only complaint I hear is that she's not taking any new business then you know she's doing something right.  From a vendor standpoint I would prefer to have a limited clientele and go stealth.  It just makes sense from a security standpoint.  If a vendor wants to sell to end users then they will need to stay open but if you're looking to be more of a distributor then you want a handful of clients and close up shop.  And since it looks like some brick chimneys have somehow gained the artificial intelligence needed to use the internet we may be distributing to end users.  :P  But personally I need to dedicate more time to the continued production than I do for distribution otherwise I wouldn't mind a lot of small amounts (nickel and dime).


That being said I think we should bring this thread full circle and back on topic and let's talk about CaliTrees.  :D

Good vibes

Looks like somebody else noticed too.
Thanks Digi!
I said almost the same thing in another thread, and he was praising Calitrees, but hadn't tried them.
I think he means well, just his review are lacking. I would strongly disagree with the vendor assessment.

Back to Calitrees. We had fun last night learning how to fix a customer screw up, mine ;)
I await patiently.

Post by: CaliTrees on March 16, 2012, 03:37 pm
I saw the other thread and I didn't wanna jump in there sounding too defensive.  I've been chatting with ghb and he seemed excited. I think that's the motivation behind his posts, he is just excited about a new vendor.  Just don't over hype me until you have stuff in hand and can give a good review.  :D  When ghb said he'd give a good review i think he meant he will give a well written and proper review, not a favorable review just because.  Uniwiz has been around long enough to know that actions speak stronger than words on this forum.  Makes sense.  ghb definitely isn't a shill account, his post history is mostly regarding GHB and from february.  I noticed somebody said his post count jumped from 3 - 61 and maybe a forum bug but he always had that many posts since I've been conversing with him over the past few days. I think maybe there was a mix up with another forum user? Anyways I got a couple packages going out today and hopefully a package will land today and I'll get a review over the weekend. 

Take care, stay safe.

Very nice. Again, ignore the whiners, someone will always want a lower price. It would be stupid to try and match prices of lesser quality. The only thing stopping me from ordering a half lb right now is feedback/reputation, nothing to do with prices.

yea i am excited because just because i havent seen cali trees bud yet that doesnt mean shit i have had everyones bud on here except yours but i do have eyes i can tell what bud will be dank and what bud will not by the picture. if u know anything about weed u should be able to look at it and tell what will be better. but anyways if all these people new who i really was from my old sellers account they wouldnt be saying shit they would be agreeing with me. but yea cali trees has offered to send me a hefty sample and i will let u guys know how it goes.  i will be vaporizing each bowl with my new "vi vape" so i can give the best review on taste and what not. dude if anyones looking for a good vaporizer check out the vi vape its fucking good.

Count me as someone else who is excited to hear how things go with CaliTrees!

I'm certainly not the type to need to buy any weight, but if the product is mind-blowing then I'll definitely pick up a half or zip every so often.

Welcome, Cali.

This is the hands down greatest grower you will work with. I don't say that lightly. This man should and will keep his clientele small for the very fact that he has nugs and the prices to do it.  don't even have to mention the joy it is to chat with him. Interesting guy, for sure. The Green crack smelled sweetly of pineapples and left me energetic and creative. Great for any form of creative expression (as far as weed goes ;) ) The White fire... oh baby. dunk me in an ice bath sire because this baby IS on fiyuuuh. It all smoked great, looked great (he takes extra care in preserving the nugs beauty, and I quote  when it comes to weed "I am a snob") and was delivered with precision stealth and speed (3 days ). Consider yourself lucky to jump onto this fragrant  wagon of weed while it is still slowly rolling. And that's all I gotta say about that....

EDIT: His shipping (as i have ordered from Meganugs) is just as discrete as Meganugs shipping methods

Please let me know man, thinking about buying a zip from Cali, but I'm a bit wary with 1 transaction and 0 reviews.

Don't wanna be that guy Cali, but is there any possibility of sending a small taste test? I'm really interested for a zip of WiFi, just wary of testing the waters with new vendors because of past experiences.

Any chance you'll get these lab tested? Correct me if I'm wrong but I think this would be a first for a MoM on SR

I know I only have 1 post on the forums but I seriously recommend the white fire or the green crack if you are looking for a good wake + bake energetic/creative sativa. I received an oz of 4 different strains, white fire, og tahoe, hells angels and green crack. All of them were beautiful strains.. and they came all very fluffy and unsmooshed. If you are worried about the quality, you are worrying about the wrong things because this is the real deal.. it's the same weed you will find in a dispensary of reputable nature.

I'm watching this thread closely as well. I talked at a pretty decent length with Cali the other day and he/she was always very communicative and even *gasp* mentioned having to log off SR. This may sound weird but I don't expect scammers to mention anything but trying to get you to buy their stuff. Just waiting on a review or two and then I'm going to try them out and I'll be back with a review and pictures.

Just received my package in the mail. The Green Crack smells just like the cut I had gotten from Christy Nugs. The Tahoe smells like a skunky gunpowder (to me). The Wifi smells fruity almost. And the Pre98 Bubba smells just like a bubba kush with a twang. Packaging was amazing.. cheers on the re-closeable bag! Shipping was very fast too!
Waiting to smoke- report later

Caltreees is legit.
Got my 8th looks really nice.
and some samples ;)
Report on quality later.

Bubba Kush

Very nice buds, almost perfect.
Piney smell
Very well cured, smooth smoke.
I love Kushes, this Kush included, nice buzz. 8)

You did good CaliTrees ;D

Great to hear!  It looks like the first batch is landing today.  I'm interested to hear how the nugs came as far as damage by packaging and shipping as well as quality of smoke.  Enjoy!
Title: Re: CaliTrees Vendor Thread
Post by: uniwiz on March 19, 2012, 11:27 pm
I noticed the cure right off, when smoking.
Much smoother......

As far a crushing, without getting into methods.
Yours was ok for me. Remind me in PGP about other methods.
I prefer express boxes, with something hard like candy so even if crushed, not much damage.

Mine came perfect as far as that goes.
Enjoying the Kush.

I received my sample package earlier today and i have had time to get stoned all day off of each strain  ;D

 :) PACKAGING: top notch packaging i love the mylar bag. and vacuum sealed perfectly no smell at all until i broke the very first seal. it did not crush or compress the buds at all perfectly done. and i even like the printed adress and he even added extra security to the adress seal im not going to go into detail but packaging is 5/5

 8) MEDICINE 1:  BUBBA KUSH- its darker colored with dark hairs but a good dark almost purple. and the smell is that original pine smell. and it breaks up beautiful very well cured even though it not the best out of the rest of the strains its still just as good high wise its an uplifting high as u can tell im willing to type all of this while im still stoned.

 :D MEDICINE 2: GREEN CRACK- this is my favorite out of all 3 it looks perfect just how i like it the smaller type of nugs and its not too light green but not dark just in between . u can see the crystals gleaming off of the bud and its manicured perfectly with the light colored hairs folding perfectly over each open crevace. as for the high its energetic as fuck almost like crack lol no couch lock at all i was being productive with my music and i usually dont when i get high its a great strain.

  ;D MEDICINE 3: WIFI KUSH- this bud looks the best out of all 3. its light green colored and the reason it looks the best is because it has the most beautiful red hairs i have seen on bud in a long time they bounce perfectly off of the  light green color and the hairs are fairly long. and i just vaped a bowl of this right before i wrote this paragraph and i feel like someone slapped a big tennis headband on my head and my eyes feel heavy definatly a sleeper.

now that i have received such perfect service from cali trees he is my new go to guy for bud here. thanks alot cali trees i think u found a new home welcome to silkroad buddy. everyone fuck with cali trees u will not be dissapointed.

Post by: redforeva on March 20, 2012, 04:55 am
To accurately judge each strain I smoked a .8 Bong Load of Each and commented on taste and thoughts of smells and effects... I smoked alot and napped off for 2 hours to kill my high down to taste more. Did not have a camera at that time.

Packaging is amazing, best on SR right now(imo) just what I've been wanting to see. Ziptop that can stand on their own. Faster than some other domestic vendors and uses a good guise.

Trim is good enough for me some sugar leaves have been left on but to me it doesnt matter. They could be trimmed up more for $349 an ounce.

Tahoe OG - A gunpowder smell and woody heady taste with a og after taste. Nugs were kind of damp but I like that, just personal pref.
Pr98BubbaK - Smells like Kush looks like a really kushy pheno :). Taste earthy and sweet. Great moisture level.
Green Crack - My favorite, Sweet Skunk smell, rich heady taste with sweet exhale. Good colors :P
The White X Fire OG - really frosty and bunches of orange hairs. Taste like a sweet OG kush.

Great stuff - Taste is there smell is there, and the colors are there. Service is 10/10 fast messages.

Thanks for the reviews guys.  Lots of packages went out today.  A lot more should be landing on Wednesday.

Thanks uniwiz, ghbizzle and redforeva for the feedback.

I don't know why they are showing up for $349.  I show em at $343 and I don't know why they are that high either.  I have em listed at $320 with pre-commission pricing.  I had it where buyer paid $7 shipping but I changed that to free shipping since they didn't fit in small boxes and my wording on my info page made it seem like shipping is included.  But I thought that pre-commission pricing adds 4%, which should only bring it to $332.80.  I'm not sure where the extra 10 bucks is coming from.  I'm trying to set it up where I get $320 (or $309 after shipping) and the buyer pays about $333.  What do you think of that redforeva for the quality of product and service?  Fair?  Still a bit high?  Tell it like it is. Take care, stay safe.

The commission is variable. It's 10% on the first $50, then then like 8% on the $100 between $50 and $150, and keeps going down. It's a little confusing.

The only way to do it is to set post-commission pricing, set a price point you think people will accept, and then see if the pre-commission cut is something you'll accept.

Why thank you, I'm glad I'm appreciated ;)
I agree with most of your review as well. ;D
We also have to find some cheap mid weed as well, like the stuff Paperchasing had.

$70-75 for a 8 is a little high to start. When you add all the fee thats what it's coming to.
I bought anyhow cause I don't do freebies for the same reason you don't.
Those prices are LTTM quality, and even she didn't sell 8 that high.
The SR fees are really eating into the vendors profits.

As far as helping vendors, he did contact me.
I gave him my opinion on the samples.
And warned him about are 8, and sample scammers.

We do need more vendors, and their different grow cycles. 8)

When he gets up to QP's which is what he wants to sell he is competitive.
However if your not sharing with friends, a QP is storage for me. I like having lots of certain strains.
The OZ price makes me look at other new vendors as well, selling kush at $220 sale, $265 regular.

Packing method should be interesting cause nobody beatst Christy Nugs.
I truly mean she  is my hero. Not that I don't love all my vendors.

Uniwiz

Yes, I am curious about packing as well, as CN is also my hero, lol! But this hiatus it killing a mofo! I sent a pm to CT on the main site, but have yet to hear back. THIS mofo isn't storage on a qp, I need a hp. I suffer from massive, horrendous misanthropy, and herb is the only cure. I take Uniwiz's advice a bit too seriously for not knowing him/her, but it's paid off in this venture. And well. So, CaliTrees, although you're new, I got a shitload of coins if you respond in a lightning fast unreal manner, lol.

$23.10 = total fees

$343.10 / $23.10 = 6.733%

That's a lot of percentage IMO.  I didn't think it was going to be that high.  On top of the initial $150 costs to become a buyer.  That's why the listings show up so high.

With a $1000 listing the percentage in fees is 3.85%. 

WIth a $1100 listing the percentage in fees is 3.63%.

Ebay is a flat 9.0%, though the fee cannot be higher than $100. That is not even including the insertion fee for the auction, which can be a couple of bucks.

IMHO, The comission is on spot compared to comparable clearnet sites. Not seeing what all the fuss is about, I've actually sat down and done some of the math myself to try to get an idea how much some of these vendors could be making/the extra cost of silk road in general.

I recently bought an item in bulk for cheap and resold about qty 200 on ebay all in January.  eBay took 7%.  Paypal took 2%.  eBay takes different amounts based on what you're selling.  So electrical entertainment items have a different percentage than RV's.  But I resold xbox games for $40-45/ea and eBay took 7%. 

What I think I am going to do is turn off pre-commission pricing and add 4% to every listing like envious suggested.  That's better than passing on roughly 9% of fees to the buyer on the first $150 on every sale.  I'll take the chance with the btc volatility on my end and offer a better or similar price to the end user.

CaliTrees, thank you for your quick reply. Although, I was in haste mode, after having waited longer than told, and not hearing from my main vendor. I started asking about others, and you were recommended. I won't be requiring your services as of yet, but this doesn't mean  I won't be trying your wares on the next go round.  Your strains  look tasty.

As for the eBay thing, they take 13% from me, and Paypal takes 7%, same as going to auction for real, I suppose.
But what % is the listing fee when you're not a "power seller"?? Especially if it needs more than 1 pic. I usually am out 23% at the end of selling on eBay. It's become such a bother, especially with the new shipping  rules. Can't charge more than $3 is bullshit! 1 bubble mailer is $1, shipping 1 cd in it is $2, DCN is .75, now I am out there, too! Fuckers! eBay makes about 100 million a day, same as 5 hour energy. Man, I need a gimmick.................

Hey-

Uniwiz I hope to update it all tomorrow.  I don't wanna sound like one of those FE vendors but I will value buyers that finalize once shipment is received and product is the proper weight and is as described.  But I will always value my initial buyers.

SD- Glad you got the medicine you needed.  Maybe in the future.  Until next time...

Applesausse- I think tomorrow too, but it could be Thursday.  Lots of packages should land tomorrow.

Take care, stay safe.

Post by: Td1j83TftR on March 22, 2012, 10:58 pm
Wow where to start with this vendor, I have been VERY high the last 2 days.
I placed an order with CaliTrees for some of every strain except the HA Kush.

Shipping was very fast Monday to wednesday morning. Packaging was awesome. Vacuum sealed and all but also in 2 high quality dark black bags that are very handy and useful for transportation or whatever you want to use them for. I think they're awesome.

The product: All strains were labeled and came in 2g's heavy each! Also threw in a sample of the HA kush so I had some of all 5 strains to try. If I were to rank these buds I dont think Id be able to as they are all very high quality even the bubba kush which he says is "over-cured" so the price is cut is still very potent and a great looking and feeling bud.

Im going to start with my favorite the Hells Angels Kush:
I wasnt event supposed to get this one but it ended up being my favorite. It is also supposed to be a little overcured but the buds were beautiful. Purpleish and different hairs and everything going through it and just covered with trichs. Me and my buddy took 2 hits each earlier and were feeling so good. Its almost like your high as fuck but not foggy and all of your senses are enhanced kind of. Its a really interesting high but i love it.

Tahoe OG: This or the HA are definitely the most potent ones. This one is a strong indica that looks amazing and has so many crystals certain parts of certain buds are just white on the tips and it looks like a snowy mountain haha This one is very strong and knocks me out after smoking a lot.

Green Crack: This one is awesome i think more of a sativa that gets you really high but still functional. This one had the biggest nicest dense buds and was bright green with lots of orange hairs. I like this one because it is a really nice changeup during the day from all the kushs that are very potent. Not to say this one isnt potent its just a diff high. This one is awesome.

WIFI: Looks really good bright green with distinct color hairs almost red and just tons of them all over it. An awesome one that doesnt as much knock you out as the others but still gets you so high. Havent smoked as much of this one but my buddy loves it and its just as good as any of the other strains.

Bubba kush: I didnt think this one would be as good because he said it was overcured but wow. This one was awesome and some of the nugs are so nice looking. This one also had a couple white mountain tops like that Tahoe. I smoked a bowl of it this morning and was really high and just couchlocked. All of the kushs are very strong and amazing.

If I had to order just one or two strains I would choose between the Hells Angels, Green Crack, and Tahoe depending on what i was looking for but realistically they are all really really good.

Overall:
All of these buds are very potent and each has its own distinct smell. Ive gotten stuff around where im from that has a little less leaves on it but not with the same potency. This really is some high quality stuff that I have been looking for for awhile and all buds are just covered with crystals. This vendor is amazing and has great communication and is very helpful and to the point and can work with you to mix and match whatever you want in your order.

Yes his prices may be a bit high but honestly this is some of the best bud ive smoked and I gaurantee that anything you get from this vendor you will be more than satisfied. CaliTrees just earned himself a new consistent customer and i wish him the best on SR!

The quality may be a bit better than I described it in the listing.  The smell is strong and sometimes you don't get good smells and flavor out of bubble, but not in this case.  It's a good mix of flavors.

Any questions feel free to ask. 

Thanks a lot to everybody.  This has been a crazy week. I appreciate it.

That green crack looks so delicious...Will you ever be doing under 1oz listings again? I can swing 170-190 for a half if it is as good as yours seems to be, I just can't pull the price for a full ounce. I'm sure other users feel the same way. I know they are a hassle, but I personally don't mind a mark up for any inconvience it causes you.

Anywho, glad we have another reliable vendor of conniseur grade bud :)

Welcome aboard Cali, it's always a good thing to get more of a Cali crop of high grade coming to SR. Most of these so called senior members don't have a clue on what good grade a weed taste and feel like. When they get some low grade kush they hold these vendors nuts so tight it's amusing.  I don't think you will have a problem here especially if you are bringing the best that Cali has to offer then you definitely won't have any competition. I will be the first in line to buy bulk from you. I have chilled out on purchasing from here because the quality just hasn't been here. I get better buds from around the crib than f------ with SR. However it's always a good thing to switch it up on them so no one gets comfortable counting your money or trying to figure out where your stash comes from. That was the reason why i fell in love with SR. But thus far the products has been a little disappointing. So welcome aboard and I will be checking you out once you get situated on the bulk. I don't waste my time or my address on small packages...Good Luck!!!!

1st and foremost, CT has made a believer outta me... I'm not going anywhere. CT is my guy from here on out..

My house reeks of dank. This weed is smelly, and looks delicious. I haven't sampled it yet.  But I know good bud when I see it, I wont be disappointed. 

Great work CT, You made a regular customer.. you keep selling, I'll keep buying.

As for everyone else.. start buying from him.. you will be satisfied, I promise!

Post by: lucas1212 on March 28, 2012, 09:33 am
sorry i'm late on the review, too busy smoking all the bud you sent. :)))

i ordered 1/8 of green crack. i was excited to try this strain as I've heard too much about it. i saw other vendors listing it, but for my first try i'd like the best quality. i wasn't wrong in choosing CaliTrees. He also included a sample of WhiteFireOG (thanks!).

-Packaging & Shipping- i've made several orders from very reputable vendors and CaliTrees has the best packaging i've seen. For the amount of stealth, the buds were not crushed at all. zero compression, which allowed me to mire them and say they look just like picture. Shipping time was awesome, as expected. It came in 2-3 days? I can't remember, i just know from the time I ordered to the time it arrived, it all went as planned. lol

-Bud- the GC smelled so fruity and sweet. it was heavenly. i really appreciated the big nug of GC. it just allows me to admire the bud even more. it was sticky and light. the bud was not too dry or too moist. no complains at all there. now, the high. it was a very nice clear headed high, which is what i expected considering the quality. The length of the buzz was probably an hour or so. My brain wasn't fried afterwards, that I could go on and carry about my day. I got a nice euphoric feeling and a light body stone. I was also happy not to get any negatives that come when i smoke sativas. (rushing thoughts and higher anxiety). It seemed the more I smoked, the better the high and the more happy I'd get. I love how i got the sparkly eyes again. strong potency also, i shared with friends and more friends.

-Bud- the WIFI was great, it was an unexpected sample. It was a strong contrast from the GC, i'd get a slight kick (head high) along with a strong mellowing body stone. a great before bed strain. I really enjoyed both strains, they also complement each other well. The WIFI really calmed me down and allowed me to relax. I'd just feel content and good. perfect for unwinding after a long day of classes. I'm pretty curious what I'd feel like if I smoked more bc I didn't notice a ceiling. the potency was strong for the tiny hits I took.

well If i was going out and about or chilling with friends, I'd definitely smoke the GC. even if I was just chilling, the GC would be good. If i was trying to sleep or mellow myself out, i'd go for the WIFI.

I see he doesn't offer smaller sizes anymore. dang! but it's definitely worth it buying an O if you have the money. he's also a nice guy in messages, which usually wins me over. i hate poor communication. welcome to the silk road and I hope you continue to have much success. :)

You know I loved taking them, ha!

I've had the Bubba Kush and WiFi so far - Bubba Kush WAS a little dry, but nothing ridiculous.  Smoke was smooth and had a great florish finish to it.  It gave me a really nice mellow high for a few hours.

Just tried the WiFi last night, and DAMN!  Slight skunk aroma and not a ton of flavor with the smoke, but the high was amazing!  It was beyond euphoric.  I was literally lying in bed smiling as I floated off into sleep.

Really looking forward to trying it again when I'm not going to bed.

Ok SilkRoad, everyone needs to sit down and listen. CaliTrees is a PROFESSIONAL. This man/woman is the epitome of what you would dream of when thinking of MoM. This may be a bit long, but Cali deserves the attention and effort to write out a good review.

I talked to Cali when he first signed up here with a vendor account. As a rule I do not ask for samples nor deal with new people because of the security risks. I talked at length with Cali about exactly how they run their business and their shipping protocols. Not only did they go in depth with me they were personable. We talked about some other aspects of the site like hedging and other things. Never did I feel that they wanted to brush me off or that my concerns weren't valid. Eventually I informed them that I would order as soon as a couple of other orders came in. Did I get a "you wasted my time asking these questions and now you're not ordering??" Nope, the consummate professional said "great, let me know when and what you want to do."

True to my word as soon as I heard good things from some known buyers here on the forums I transferred my money and again talked to CaliTrees. Not only did they throw up a custom order they gave me 2oz at half the QP price instead of double the 1oz price. I didn't ask for it and that's what makes it even better. This person is looking out for his customers. They also went into some more details about the strains and let me know what they thought I should try out. They even offered to break the order up in any amount I wished by grams!! I have never had anyone else offer that. CaliTrees did literally anything and everything you could possibly ask from a vendor.

CaliTrees also messaged the day that the order shipped and again the day before it arrived stating that if it didn't show they would send the DCN encrypted. I didn't ask for this service but man do I appreciate it. Messaging everyone all this information takes time and it means a lot when a vendor takes the time to show you they care about your order.

On to packaging. Standard box, but they use other things in the box to make sure your product gets to you intact and unsmashed. Color throwoffs and absolutely no smell at all. High quality bag that you could possibly keep instead of throwing away. Basically, this guy isn't skimping on the shipping, I'm sure the costs are up there. Again, something I appreciate more than this review can convey.

Product: I haven't tried it yet. I will be back, hopefully with pictures (although they won't be as high res as qwerfdsa's pictures) and a full review of the strains. I got 1 oz of Wifi and 1oz of Green Crack. I'm super excited to try them out tonight.

Conclusion: CaliTrees is my new go to guy, period. At first he was a bit more expensive than some others I'd went through but this person deserves the extra coin. I don't say that lightly. I'm a tightass to the maximum degree. When you really think about it the 100 extra bucks isn't a big deal when you get this good of customer service and peace of mind. Cali, THANK YOU. This review isn't going to tell you enough. I will definitely be doing business and I hope I'm one of the people you take with you when you go stealth like you talked about when you joined. I want to be a part of that! You guys better get on it while it's available.


TL;DR: CaliTrees is a professional and the best vendor (period, not just weed) that I've dealt with on SR.

*** Reposted from the Good Cannabis Vendor Review thread ***

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just received some of CaliTrees's Bubble Hash (mix of Blue Dream, Green Crack and Grape Ape)!

Communication: 5/5
Cali has always been on point with answering questions and prompt responses - I've never gotten the "I'm a dealer and don't have time or care about you" vibe from him.  He really has top notch customer service.

Shipping/Packaging: 5/5
Product was shipped quickly and it made it to me in 2 days.  Standard box with nice printed label and other extras.  The internals were on point, just like my other order, and he went above and beyond to careful pack the hash itself.

Product: 5/5*
Just got it, so I've yet to give it a whirl.  I'm no hash expert, but everything seems to look and smell as it should. 

*will update score once product is tested, but if the hash is anything like his cannabis, it'll be an easy 5

Overall: 15/15

Picture time!!

Brief review here. Purchased an ounce of Green Crack. Arrived in about two days coast-to-coast. Very nicely packed, not compressed at all. In fact, visually this ounce appeared quite large - the buds were SO fluffy. Let me be even more descriptive. A weighed 1/8 looks like a 1/4, a weighed 1/4 looks like a 1/2. You get the idea. Very well manicured and smelled great. Probably the nicest 'looking' buds I've had on SR [along with HS420's products]. Bud is sticky too, but broke up nicely.

The high itself wasn't as big a rocket type takeoff initially as I expected from a good Sativa, but it continued coming on, kind of like an Indica would. I've only had the GC strain twice though. All in all, a pretty happy, social high. Quality stuff. The GC did seem to mess with my sinuses a bit though ... but it's that time of the year!

On a different note, the Tahoe OG strain has always been one of my all time favorites, so I'll definitely be back to try 'your' Tahoe, CaliTtrees!

This is a review of Calitrees and his wonderful product.

Ordered from CaliTrees on the 13th and product arrived safe and sound on the 16th. 3 business days from ordering to my door. Cali was awesome enough to break up my order into differing amounts of different strains.

Packaging: Bud was in perfect shape, uncompressed, marked, and no smell, completely unassuming.

Product: What can I say? Cali's product is my favorite bud. Green Crack is an amazing sativa and the Bubba and Tahoe OG are awesome kushes. Only smoked on the Green Crack today and two tiny nugs (probably .3-.4g) got me and a friend high as fuck through my vape for hours. I also got a generous sample of his BHO and I can't wait to try that out. I would have today but I had stuff to do and couldn't afford to get any higher than I already was.

Customer Service: CaliTrees is the man. He's my go to guy for bud and his customer service is unbeaten in my dealings on SR. Don't miss out on his great products.

5/5 on everything and then some.

Title: Re: CaliTrees Vendor Thread
Post by: themessenger2 on April 17, 2012, 03:29 pm
I won't ever take a pic of the product in it's packaging because of security issues and respect for Cali, but I can possibly put up a picture of the product in a baggie (last layer of packaging/generic). I'll try to do that tonight, and if not hopefully by tomorrow. It's not crushed because the first seal is left a little loose and then there are several other seals around it. Trust us when we say this bud is the shit and is not compressed. Cali has been doing this for more than the couple of months he's been on SR.

Calitrees is back!!!!

Ok I just tried his BHO, and it's is very good, if not great.
The presentation made it a bit hard to deal with.
Looks like thin golden taffy.
You need to freeze, and crack the right size piece off.
You only get seconds before it heats up, and turns goo.

The oil loaded easily into my carts. Do not overload your carts.
The smoke was great, no chemical taste at all.
Another powerful buzz as well.


Vaping oils is the way to go ;)

Hey everybody,

I'm a new vendor to SR but not new to mail order marijuana.  I hope to focus on more bulk MoM orders.  Eventually I plan on vending bubble hash, BHO, seeds and rooted clones.  But for now I will start with buds only.

I'm sure I'm forgetting something.  If you have any questions let me know.  Take care, stay safe.

Hey Cali, are you able to procure clones yet? I'm looking to establish a "relationship" with a clone vendor. Looking for higher end stuff like Pure OG Kushes and Jack Herer type varieties.

If you can, lets do bidness!
Title: Re: CaliTrees Vendor Thread
Post by: CaliTrees on November 15, 2012, 01:29 am
Hey Errl-

I just saw this post.  Sorry I don't think I'm going to vend clones on SR at this time.  Maybe in the future but just not right now.

On another note I have some public listings up for the first time in a few months.

QP - $900+10 shipping.  You pay fees.

Created an account on the forums to leave a couple reviews for this guy.

Before ordering, I contacted CaliTrees and had a bit of dialogue with him - i had answers to all of my questions in a heartbeat.
He was nice enough to set aside some bulk for me to avoid getting my btc just to have a product go out of stock.
He provided pictures of the product (SR first for me) and product looked excellent so i took the plunge.


Oh boy am i glad I did.
The product arrived in 2 days flat, cross country.
The packaging was by far the most complete on SR; This guy took every precaution possible. 100%

Upon opening the wrapping, i was confronted with top notch, well cured buds. Light green, dense and potent.
The packaging kept the contents from getting smooshed even in the slightest bit, so every nug came out of the box looking like when it went in.
Close trim job (actually, youd be hard pressed to find any leaves) that had the buds glistening in the light.
The total weight of the sack was courteously fat, and much appreciated.
As far as the smoke, the Blue dream pretty smooth overall with decent taste. Certainly not overpowering, but potent as well.
Overall, best purchase ive made yet on the SR
What more could I ask for?
LONG LIVE CT!
