I know there's no way to prove it, but I am a normal person with no connection to any vendors who has been watching this sub for a month or so since I found out about legal hemp. I got some Franklin and was like "wow this is pretty cool, I have a decent little buzz." Then I saw the post about Cieba and figured I'd give it a shot, and I was blown away and immediately ordered another pound...and then another the next day haha. For comparison, I only have experience with the recent batch of Franklin (I've heard maybe the old one is better?), but this Cieba delivers delightful effects. I've been a daily delta 9 smoker for 20+ years, and this stuff treats me right. It reminds me a lot of the mids I used to get in high school in the late 90s/early 2000s. Back when everything was either Sour Diesel or White Widow (but not actually either). One or two big bongrips of Cieba and I'm proper lifted. Oh, and I got ~7 oz from the first pound (still waiting on 2 and 3). For $50, this is pretty much the best deal I've ever seen on anything - not just hemp lol. You won't regret it.
