Went in for a BOGO on SugarCone flower, it's from freaking August, it's march third. Just know if they ever have anything on BOGO you really have to check the date before you leave or else you could go home with something extremely underwhelming.
So I went in because I saw Curaleaf had Abundant Organics at 35. I like AO it's normally 38-43ish, so 35 isn't a huge discount but it was enough to get me to stop in on my way home from the store. I thought sweet I'll score a quad have a nice week for not a lot of cash.
Get home look at the Jenny Kush and there is a bunch of shake at the bottom of the jar. SHAKE. I expect better, we should all expect better.
I reached out to them via the website, but my guess is I won't get a response. If I do get one it'll probably be for some kind of points and not an actual replacement. I don't actually know what to expect from Cura this was my first trip. If they don't fix it I'll make it my last trip.
Tender at the pick-up counter was super fast, friendly, and got me out the door quickly. I gave the atmosphere four stars because I never saw anything but a grey hallway. Awesome parking though!
My first trip here and I came in because they were doing halves of Aeriz popcorn nugs for 120. felt like saving some cash, and boy did I. The Glue and GMO are both great.
My Budtender also told me he'd hold my FTP for one more visit(He made sure to say it's gone next time so use it or lose it) love the honesty.
I'll b back next time to grab a half and then a quad if Aeriz Eighths. Hopefully they'll have Now and Later back.
Everyone always treats me great here. I was a total goof today and forgot my mask made a cool little thing out of my undershirt and got a couple of laughs.
You can't beat it when GS drops off the smalls. Normally I only buy one to spread the wealth but they were on the menu for a whole day so I bought two of them. Seriously never go wrong with the GS smalls.
I was in and out in less than five minutes.
Also had a credit they gave me after I left a review about my FTP eighth being so bad I tossed it. They didn't have to do that. I still gave them five stars because it was a freebie. That was super cool and the kind of thing that builds loyalty.
I wanted to start by thanking Jars for doing curbside pickup only. Sure I was in line for about forty minutes, but I felt safe during the entire process. The other day I went to my normal dispensary, and they had about thirty people out front standing shoulder to shoulder some in masks some not in masks. What's the point of limiting people inside if you just let them stack up on top of each other outside.
So I ended up at Jars. Ordering was simple everyone in the drive-through was awesome. I'll be back again.
So I wanted to order online today to avoid as much time in the dispensary as possible. Online order has been suspended, so I thought, oh great I have to go in. I hopped in the car hoping it wouldn't be that bad. Get off the freeway and see this weird tent thing in front of the building with people crammed under it standing shoulder to shoulder.
What's the point of limiting people inside and enforcing social distancing in the store, if you don't enforce it outside?
I looked at the line of twentyish people standing right next to each other, some with masks, but most without, and thought no cannabis is worth bringing COVID home.
I'll be back after things calm down, maybe this winter, but unless you start offering a curbside pick up or some other way to get my med's it's going to be a while.
Stay safe folks, I wish you nothing but the best during these troubled times.
This dispensary started at a disadvantage with me because all of their flower comes prepacked. I hate that shit. There is something to be said about the feeling of seeing our buds pulled out of a jar and packaged in front of you that can't be replaced.
That being said, the flower was good, and the price for a first time customer was right.
The only thing that keeps me from coming back more often is the bulk price on flower. I like to buy an ounce at a time and I don't want to have to wait for a text to get a good price on an ounce. By then I've already gone to my favorite Dispensary and picked up an ounce off the 12 shelf for $215.00+tax
So while I'll be coming back, now it has to fit into my schedule on a day where I get a magical text, need cannabis, and want to drive a little bit. It won't happen often but it will happen.
Keep up the good work.
Every now and then I get a bug up my ass and have to try a new dispensary, this time it was HWC. This was my first trip so I decided to pick up 3 eighths, Gelato, Emerald Cookies and Sunset Sherbet.
I'll start by saying that the waiting room is pretty grungy, so is the back parking lot. That's not unheard of because of where these businesses are zoned.
My budtender was awesome. He seriously added a star or two to my review. Two things stuck out when I spoke to him. 1. HWC doesn't stand by it's low shelf. "may contain stems and seeds." Man that's kind if sad and doesn't say a lot about your grow. At Nature's Medicine the 6dollar grams buds are still damn good, and they don't have seeds. 2. The dude was a customer service pro. He gave me highest priced with for free instead of one that was five bucks less. It might be a small thing but it was the kind of thing that would have made me a loyal customer.
On to what everyone is wondering, how were the meds? They were ok, hence the three stars, possibly a slightly generous three stars. So what was the problem? Let me break it down.
The buds aren't served deli style. No real biggie, but it's something I've grown accustom to. So I didn't find out until I got home just how wet they were. Seriously most nugs, not just sticky, but so wet they probably weren't cured right. They sure looked good though, so the question became how would they smoke.
So over the course of the next couple days I dipped into all three 1/8s. The Emerald Cookies was my favorite, but it's hard to really judge it. The weed was so wet my first vape session went badly. I ended up leaving the buds exposed to the air for about 6 hours just to dry them out.
All three strains had a funny after taste. I don't know how to describe it, accept to say that it almost tasted like a funky water vaper. Kind of like that taste when you drink water out if the hose in summer, not great. The problem is that's all you taste, and even after drying out the buds they still ha e that same weird taste.
I'm happy I went to try HWC, but I'll be sticking with Nature's Medicine for the foreseeable future.
I really enjoyed my first taste of Gelato. It takes the Sunset Sherbet strain to a whole new level. The first fifteen minutes are a pretty good up, then you get locked down for the next fifteen followed by a peaceful float until its time to smoke again.
I picked up a prepackaged half ounce of this at Nature's Medicine in Phoenix. It was probably the best 75 bucks I ever spent on weed. This is a good strong indica that will strip away your pain in minutes.
If you need something for pain relief this might be the strain for you. I'm a big indica guy and Sensi Star is one of the best strains I've tried.
