Serra (specifically the Downtown location) is my favorite dispensary in Portland. And since I've only been to dispensaries in Oregon, I can say it's overall my favorite dispensary- from anywhere. The vibe is really cool, the staff is awesome, the product is always the best and alot of times even cheaper than other places. Super Silver Blue Magoo from Yerba Buena for $10 a gram? Orange Juice from Pistil Point for $8 a gram?? Purple Punch from Eugreen for $12? And that "Rise and Shine" discount; I LOVE it. Works perfectly for me. Also, Tillamook Strawberry#5 from Dr Jolly's, Anything from Pilot Farms with their wonderful outdoor strains. I've not been disappointed by them even once. Tara is really cool. April was very helpful. And damn it, I'm kicking myself for forgetting her name- Either Hannah or Heather? Well, whichever it is, She's awesome! Incredibly nice, knowledgeable, and helpful. Thank you for hookin' me up with superb medicine! =)
WovenWeb says "You can literally feel it" referring to the transfer of high from head to body, and i couldnt agree more. Euphoric throughout. Such a wonderful experience. its exactly what i look for in my cannabis when im seeking something for all-around benefits that i can use pretty much any time of day. And like HerbalMagician here, I aquired my exquisite cut grown by Liontree out of southern oregon. I too had avoided outdoor (also believing it to be inferior), and truth be told? I wasnt aware it was an outdoor batch until after i had already tried it and fell in love. well, i went back for more! and recently tried a couple others from liontree. Their Chemdawg×Wedding Cake strain is a beauty as well. Anyways, Dutch Treat is a strain id recommend to just about anyone. If you get the chance- take it! =)
this was a very good experience. Dane was really helpful, chill, knowledgeable about the product/flower and its lineage and effects. Really cool guy! And that veterans' day weekend deal was a major bonus. Everything from Nelson n Co., and Liontree was fire. Particularly the GG#4 and Cherry Kush from Nelson n Co., Koala and Dutch Treat from Liontree, but I went with a Chemdawg × Wedding Cake strain that my bud tender Dane helped me pick out. Superb! Also, the day before I bought my herb, i stopped by briefly to ask if the menu on Leafly included tax (it didnt indicate tax on the menu), the girl working said the prices on leafly did indeed include tax in the pricing, and i noticed when i checked leafly the very next day, they had set it up to notify that tax was included. i thought that was really cool that they got on it that fast. Good job guys and thank you! Will definitely return. =)
First things first: the smell. The ssssmmmMELL! Heavenly. However, the smell reminded me of Strawberry Fields, which worried me because that particular strain (strawberry cough × ??? indica) just didnt agree with me. It's 🔥 fire; it just gave ME anxiety- BAD.
Too intense and psychedelic for me.
Also, Skywalker being a Blueberry descendent, I wondered why it didnt smell like all the other Blueberry strains that I've fallen in love with.
So: Basically, I thought I was in for some dissapointment... NOT so.
The first thing I noticed about Skywalker is that it really, REALLY tastes like blueberry. Other strains that have Blueberry genetics such as Blue Dream, Blueberry Kush, Blueberry Cookies, etc.; they all taste fruity, and I think they all have an artificial blueberry flavor that to me is better described as just "blue". Skywalker, on the other hand, tasted like ACTUAL blueberries. Of course, there was that familar indica cannabis flavor present as well, although it was far more subtle. Subtle to the point of making me think perhaps i was just tasting my pipe, not notes from the strain being smoked. Hmm... I'll have to perform further R & D. ; )
Anywho; the effects of this beauty are fantastic. I'm calm, relaxed, content, no anxiety or paranoia (not a trace). Just pleasant euphoria, a little energy, my pain is gone and my PTSD symptoms are nowhere in sight. Ah, Skywalker, why didn't I come join you in the Light Side of the Force a long, long time ago? Well, I'm here now and I'm ready to travel with you to a galaxy far, far away. May the force-
nah. Nevermind. I won't say it! Instead; go get some Skywalker if you haven't already! = )
I picked this strain based on its appearance and the terpenes. I mean, this badboy was DANK. Fire is correct. However... if youre prone to anxiety, or paranoia? This is NOT the strain for you. And this is the reason I gave our lovely flower here only 3 stars. My own personal experiences with this one was like a reoccurring nightmare. i kept trying, but it would just INSTANTLY take me to a very bad place. But, i believe this would be a great strain for others. I will admit, though; i kept a nice fat nug of it around and on occasion id bring it out and just admire its beauty. the structure on this one, the color, the fiery pistils- just gorgeous! alas... guys like me? simply cant imbide in this one... ill have to settle for a museum like experience. : )
Cheers!
I think I'm in love!💘
This little gem stole my ❤, and I do believe it shall now be my new go-to spot. =)
The atmosphere is awesome, especially the garden outside. These ladies are very friendly and knowledgeable, and my budtender, a very polite, pretty, good energy-having gal with glasses (should've asked her name for this review), gave me an amazing deal. Their happy-hour is impressive, as is their selection; some of my absolute favorite strains. Gorgeous flower with outstanding terpenes. Floral picks like Lavender and Violet Delight! Mmm my faves.
Oh, and I'm a veteran, which offers a 15% discount! Simply incredible.
Can't wait to return! =)
I have never had a bad experience with this strain. When I first tried Obama Kush, I knew that I had found something special. This beauty gives me all the painkilling effects that I need without any couchlock or sleepiness. In fact, Obama Kush gives me energy. I don't get quiet or akward, no anxiety- just happy, goofy, content, pain-free joy! This is one of my top 5 favorite strains. It WAS my very favorite for awhile, but I've recently found a few new contenders. Anyways, no matter what your preference is concerning cannabis strain types, Indica, Sativa, Hybrid, etc., I believe Obama Kush truly has something for everybody. Thanks! ✌, 💘, and Understanding.
So, I bought this strain partly for the fact that it was an indica with a lower thc percentage, a decent amount of cbd, and, well, honestly... it was kind of a novelty, thing. Ive had Black Afghan and i had gotten it for the low thc and indica factors as well, but also, like Sirius Black, the novelty of it being so fully purple as to appear black. its different. cool. exciting. intriguing. major bag appeal and people freak when they see it! sirius blacks color was a bit more unique, like theres this almost redish wine color emanating from the buds, and i tell you what, I went back for more; not because of the novelty of the color, but the effects. it was perfect for me. the cerebral qualities are fantastic. puts me in a very happy positive mood. im more prone to laughter. its a bit euphoric. it is not overly heady/speedy or sedative and couch-locky. it's like the perfect balance. and for me; i have PTSD, so there are many strains that activate my anxiety, paranoia, negative self-conciousness, and hyper-vigilance. i am VERY picky because of this. it seems like ppl who dont have to worry about that always "Prefer" sativas, whereas ppl like me? its not a choice. we dont "prefer" indicas, we CANT use sativas (more often then not). Anyways, this strain induces NO panic or anxiety- just comfort, relaxation, joy, contentedness, and relief. if you have similar sympoms and/or issues, i HIGHLY recommend this strain. it seems to have everything one could want from cannabis without the negative side effects some of us have to endure, and (BONUS) it works any time of the day. i use it in the afternoon, and im still able to function just fine. some will even benefit and be more comfortable. now, at night, i can either just get comfort; or, i can use alot of it and itll work as a sleep aid, too. but not before a little bit of intense euphoria panic-free. for those of you with a major high tolerance, who can smoke any strain up in the 20%-and-up arena, i maybe wouldnt recommend this for you. all in all? five star flower💐.

@Jenmars- looking for pennywise;
1st off- thats a great strain. Its one that i always keep in rotation. and i go to green planet on sundays to get it because they do a special called CBD Sundays and you get a nice discount! yesterday was fathers day too, and im a proud father of two girls, so i got an additional 15% off of my gram and a half of Pennywise, on TOP of the discount for cbd sunday! i ended up getting just over an 8th so the discounts basically more than doubled what i payed for! ya just cant beat that!
=D
