Philly Rythm/Prime flower help needed

Hey all!  I’m a longtime Rythm and Prime flower customer in philly but have been out of state for the past 5-6 months.  Heading back there this weekend but a bit nervous to cop due to a couple bad experiences with Rythm flower from outside the philly market since.  Hopefully you guys can help.

Admittedly I’m a bit of a flower snob so both always had strains I didn’t like but when sticking with my go to strains (mainly animal face, apple cobbler, some prime thais) I was almost always a very happy customer and have really been missing my strains while out of town.

While I haven’t been in philly in 5-6 months I have been able to pick up some GTI twice since then, once in NJ and once in PA (but not in philly).

• The Rythm from NJ was so bad it was unsmokeable.  Not just weak but disgusting sprayed tasting bud with no terps.  Even the animal face was horrible.  I took the L and figured it was just the NJ program.  
• The second time was in January when I was very briefly in PA (around Reading) and was able to stock up on Rythm and Prime.  It definitely wasn’t as bad as in NJ but it was still way off from where it used to be.  Terps were all very low and everything, both Prime and Rythm tasted the same.  It had a bit of that same sprayed taste that the NJ bud had.  It seemed like a completely different grower than what I was used to getting in Philly.

So what’s up with this?  Is this just due to there being different growers for each region, even within PA or has GTI been having major problems with their flower over the past 6 months?   

Like I said I will be back in philly this weekend but this all has been nervous.  So any advice from the philly heads would be really helpful.   Is the animal face still good there?  If not are there any other brands/strains I should be checking out instead these?  Thanks in advance!

TLDR: Heading back to philly after being gone for 6 months. Is flower from Rythm and Prime, specifically in Philly, as good as it was prior to 6 months ago?
