Zours -HYBRID-
When referring to Zours small nugs (often called "smalls" or "popcorn buds"), you are generally talking about the smaller, intact flowers from a harvest of the Zours cannabis strain.
Here is what that typically means:
1. Quality and Potency
-
Same Genetics, Similar Potency: Small nugs come from the same plant and have the same genetic makeup (and therefore the same flavor profile and potential effects) as the large, premium buds (colas).
-
Slightly Lower Potency is Possible: Because they typically grow on the lower branches, they receive less direct light and nutrients, which can sometimes result in them being slightly less dense and having a slightly reduced concentration of trichomes (where the THC and terpenes are). However, for many users, the difference is negligible. They are NOT shake or trim.
-
The Zours Experience: The iconic sour, sweet, and fruity flavor of Zours should still be present, although it might be a bit more subdued compared to a large, perfectly-cured top cola.
2. Appearance and Cost
-
Size: They are typically the size of a marble or a small popcorn kernel.
-
Why They are Small: They didn't get enough light to mature into large buds. They are essentially "underdeveloped" compared to the top flowers.
-
Price Advantage: Small nugs are generally sold at a discounted price compared to "top-shelf" flower because they lack the "bag appeal" of large, dense nugs. This makes them a popular choice for budget-conscious consumers.
