Tale of the Tape
| Pink Cookie Pistons | Strawberry Sixers | |
|---|---|---|
| 3-0 | Record | 3-1 |
| Gold Strain Series | Series | Silver Flavor Series |
| Indica | Strain type, as printed | Indica |

A 2 and a 4 on both benches
Line up these two Presidential Cannabis League rosters and the same two numbers keep showing up.
Strawberry hands its 1g Pre-Roll the 4 and its 2g Moon Rocks jar the 2. Pink Cookies gives the 2 to its Mini Blunt and the 4 to its Mini Pre-Roll, then doubles both for the full-size packs, 22 on the Blunt and 44 on the Pre-Roll.
The one jersey that breaks the pattern belongs to the Strawberry Blunt. It wears 14, a nod to the sweetest day in February. Strawberry belongs to the Silver Flavor Series, and Nevada's rundown of the fruit-named series lists it among seven fruit names that carry across Moon Rocks, blunts, pre-rolls and minis.
What's inside
Pink Cookies goes for a sweet vanilla profile balanced by earth and citrus, with a Gold Strain Series build of flower carrying live resin and a diamond finish. The roster runs four deep: a 1.5g Blunt, a 1g Pre-Roll, three 0.7g mini blunts for 2.1g and three 0.5g mini pre-rolls for 1.5g.
Strawberry brings a sweet berry flavor to flower, distillate and kief in Presidential's classic packaging, with a 1.5g Blunt, a 1g Pre-Roll and the 2g jar. Both teams are marked Indica.
For the paper side of both rosters, Michigan's guide to single and multi-roll packs notes that a multi-roll pack keeps the same name and series on every roll, and that paper burns faster and lighter than a hemp wrap.
