The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, with many expressing frustration over the overwhelming number of ads that interrupt gameplay and the reliance on watching ads for progression. While some players appreciate the option to watch ads for rewards, the frequency and technical issues associated with these ads—such as freezing and not providing promised rewards—have led to a negative experience. Additionally, the subscription model for ad removal is viewed as excessive, with many players preferring a one-time payment option instead. Overall, the game's monetization approach is perceived as a cash grab, detracting from the enjoyment of the gameplay.
- “Abet all games like this are pay-to-win, this one seems pretty compensative and balanced with the ads. Moreover, no ads, no rewards; that simple. They don't inject an ad into gameplay; rather, all video ads are offered with some compensation relative to the game. These rewards can also be purchased instead of watching the ads if you want to support the developers, the way it should be.”
- “Fun game, no need for in-app purchases to advance.”
- “It's a good tycoon game with no ads.”
- “Unfortunately, after about a week, I started to feel I was watching ads more than actually playing the game.”
- “The game is purposefully slow so you have to watch ads to get the progression to a normal rate.”
- “You will spend far more time watching ads than actually playing this game.”

Many players express frustration over losing progress and rewards due to these glitches, leading to a significant decline in overall enjoyment. Despite some positive feedback on gameplay and graphics, the persistent technical issues have resulted in a lower rating from users.
- “Plays really well with no shady business models for the microtransactions. It's just a basic idle clicker but addicting as well, and it runs great on older phones like the Stylo 4.”
- “Good game, to be honest. I know a lot more plant names now. I thought this game would take all my money, but it didn't. There are barely any ads, no lag, and no glitches. I rate it a solid 5! ”
- “Runs great!”
- “I love the game, but after always having to restart the game because it freezes, lags majorly, or force closes is ridiculous.”
- “The game is ok but it freezes all the time and I had to uninstall it and add it back and still doing the same thing.”
- “This game is a total waste of time. You spend so much time just to watch your money disappear, not to mention your gems somehow spend themselves. The game constantly glitches and freezes; absolutely garbage.”

The gameplay experience is heavily marred by an overwhelming presence of ads, with many players reporting that they spend more time watching advertisements than actually engaging with the game itself.

- “Good engagement, fun animations, compelling gameplay.”
- “Probably 2-3 minutes of ads per minute of gameplay.”
- “The free version is an advertisement simulator with some cannabis-tycoon type gameplay sprinkled in.”

The humor in the game is widely praised for its lighthearted and quirky take on cannabis culture, with many players finding the premise and character designs amusing. Users appreciate the game's ability to blend fun gameplay with humorous elements, such as characters appearing high and the overall ironic tone. However, some reviews note that the humor may not resonate with everyone, particularly those who are not part of the target demographic.
- “It's really addicting if you know how to play. It's like a different game; as soon as I played it, I stopped off from small, but then you upgraded really fast. It's a really fun game, even though you're just tapping on the weed, but it's actually really funny.”
- “There are no ads, so that just makes me enjoy this game better. Plus, it's funny when my employees get high while they're picking the weed. This is a well-done game, really funny, and I would really recommend it as the best tycoon game ever made.”
- “Hilarious how all the characters' eyes are heavy-lidded like everyone is high.”

Reviews on the aspect of "grinding" in the game are mixed, with many players finding it excessively tedious and monotonous, particularly in the later levels.

- “Really fun and isn't too grindy.”
- “Recently tried updating to the newest version and all my progress and items were deleted. I haven’t been able to recover any of it, which is very disappointing after losing months of unlocks and events. I contacted support, but they wouldn’t help me restore anything. I had a lot of time invested in this game, and for this to happen without any support is crazy to me. I won’t be returning to this game on another profile; I refuse to do endless hours of pointless farming again, especially when I’ve already done it. Thanks for nothing!”
- “Extremely slow and grindy.”
- “Became tedious, monotonous, and boring after approximately 5-10 logins.”
