liqueur Jägermeister because of this variety ’ s licorice flavor , the purple color that it tends to have , and its violent kick .

It only took me 45 years , but now I can use being a marijuana expert as a viable career move — maybe !
Back to the “ Name my strain ” contest . Visit Bobo ’ s Botanicals YouTube channel , see the “ Name the Strain ,” and enter your choice for the strain ’ s name in the comments sections . It ’ s that simple . The winner will not become crazy rich , but you will have a strain named by you , and you ’ ll receive one of my famous tee shirts from “ That Badass Shirt Company ” as a prize . Tee shirts can be seen at www . ThatBadassShirt . com .
If you were going to suggest names like Buddy McBudface or Purple Nurple , I ’ m sorry , but you are late to the dance . I ’ m really leaning toward one of those , so I suggest that you get creative . I will announce the winner in late September after I reach a decision , so stay tuned and stay safe .
