Hot Canadian Cannabis Products for the Weekend of October 17, 2025
This week’s roundup is powered by data scraped from six top cannabis subreddits, with sentiment analysis performed by AI on user reviews. Upvotes, downvotes, and comments are combined into a Trend Score, which measures the level of attention a product has received online.
Products make this list for both good and bad sentiment. Attention is attention, whether fans are cheering or complaining. On BudTrendz, we track these scores in real time so you can see which brands are heating up (or cooling off) in any four-hour window. Sentiment is displayed using emojis: 🔥 for positive, 💩 for negative, and 🔄 for neutral feedback.
A brand with multiple 🔥 is clearly resonating with consumers, while those showing 💩 might be facing some tough reviews. Mixed emoji sets often indicate inconsistent product quality or polarizing releases. Here’s what’s trending going into the weekend.
1. Woody Nelson 🔥🔥🔥🔄💩 76
Trending Products: 4 | Reviewers: 4 | Sentiment Summary: Woody Nelson is seeing a mix of enthusiasm and criticism this week.
