I really hate having to go here. After a year of being open this place has only gotten worst... the staff are all visibly burnouts and recommend their personal favorite strains instead of anything helpful (I need strong pain relief and the staff is always trying to sell me sativas) more than once I've had a staff member say they don't like indica so they haven't used the ones on the menu, great that's not what I asked. The prices are a little better than other places, but this place doesn't care about providing medicine at all, the propelyne glycol in the cartridges and poorly trained, visibly high staff prove it. Their Northampton location puts this one to shame, they're so professional there. I can't recommend this place over the other ones near by.

This strain is exceptional for both medical and recreational use. I personally haven't had many strains where the best of both strains crossed manifests in the new flower, this is the exception. The blue dream portion comes through *amazingly* on this strain. But because of that, I wouldn't recommend this strain for people that are uncomfortable with strong psychedelic effects. This strain starts you off with a dream-like state, filled with bliss and euphoria. Great for depression and anxiety. It's soon followed by calm, light full bodied relaxation. No couch-lock, great day time pain relief. Picked up a half from my local place, first quarter gave me quite a bit of energy with a ton of euphoria, now when I smoke (bowl, decarbed) it's been making me quite sleepy, but all the pain relieving qualities are still there. I seem to have developed a tolerance to this strain much faster than others, but overall it's an amazing strain. Great for chronic nerve pain and intense chronic pain.

Super Silver Haze

11/23/2016
This is a strain I first tried more than a decade ago when I first started using cannabis. I honestly haven't seen it around in years. Recently a new dispensary opened around me and lo and behold, the stuff of dreams!!! To this day it's still some of the best looking cannabis I've ever come across. I thought I would never find medicine that could make me feel the way I did when I first started 10+ years ago, turns out I just needed to find it again! This sativa is a fantastic medicine for pain. It delivers a strong body high and gives you plenty of energy to conquer the day. Very euphoric and very relaxing at the same time. I personally have a hard time medicating with sativas and some hybrids, but this stuff is fantastic. Would definitely recommend for day time chronic pain relief, or anyone looking to have a fun time!!

This place has quickly become my favorite since it opened. In terms of actual medicine, they have the highest amounts of cbg, cbn, cbd etc in their flower edibles and concentrate, while keeping decent thc levels. The prices are competitive on flower, a little higher in other areas. They have the best concentrate in the state, easily. The vape cartridges are awesome, they have a glass mouthpiece and are solventless. The higher thc edibles tend to sell out quickly but since they've opened they've rolled out maybe 1 high thc edible per week, and steadily have been expanding the menu. The flower is great, I almost cried tears of joy when I saw the super silver haze (a strain I personally haven't had in 10+ years, and man theirs is beautiful). I personally haven't visited this location, but my caregiver/fiancé loves the service here far more than others within the same radius. He works very close to this location, usually visits around closing on his way home. Never had a problem with menu accuracy. Says they've always been very friendly and more than willing to help, especially the time I forgot to tell him what to get and he couldn't reach me. Ryan S. was more than happy to help him figure out what was better for me. Overall I'm in love with this location and I'm very excited to see how things progress!

Beautiful strain, very strong. The batch I got tested high in thc (22%) no cbd (which I guess might be unusual for this strain? I wouldn't know though), .1 cbc and a higher percentage of cbg (.9%) than I've seen in this area. Very euphoric and uplifting, quick onset (decarbed before smoked) amazing pain relief. Good for strong and chronic pain. I have a higher than average tolerance, this is a really good daytime strain for me. But the body effect does come through strongly. Would highly recommend this strain! But like the description says, I would advise caution to less seasoned users, it is very potent!

Didn't like this one. I have a very high tolerance, didn't smoke for the longest time in awhile and had a blunt of this that was testing above 20% THC (normally I use glass but it was a holiday). Buzz was weaker than weak, no pain relief. Really little difference between being "normal" and "high". Reminded me of dirt weed tbh. Won't buy again. There are much better sativas out there. Get some facewreck or trainwreck instead.

Sold as an indica at my dispensary, definitely acts like one. Great for day time pain relief, although this strain does produce a strong body sensation it won't put you to sleep. I live with chronic pain and have found Hurricane to be reliable medicine even in lower concentrates of active content. The sativa effects do come through quite strongly (and quickly, probably leading to its name) sometimes being very cerebral and racy, but the indica qualities overpower them for me. Overall great daytime meds! If you need help with sleep, pick up a different indica for bedtime.

Buddha's Sister

4/30/2016
Since my last review of this strain, I've picked up a couple batches of Buddha's Sister testing above 20% THC (as all medical cannabis should *coughNETAcough*) and I have to say, I'm confused. Personally, I need very strong medicine for chronic pain and insomnia. I love and prefer strains topping out at 30% active content (not that this batch was, only 23%), but this strain seems to better fit it's own name at lower potencies. At the low potency I tried (16%-ish), it is a very calm, uplifting strain. Good for pain during the day, but if you want to sleep you certainly can. The higher potency batches I had are more like Buddha's angry sister who doesn't meditate and came to fight. The uplifting qualities transform into a more psychedelic state that comes on very strongly and rapidly, accompanied by the racy-ness of sativas. When the psychedelic state wears off it comes off very quickly, seeming to take away any medical qualities with it. On the 16% THC batch I could smoke a bowl and have a full 4 hours of good medicine. On the higher THC, it seems to wear off after about 2 hours which is weird as hell. Overall, I do really like this strain. However, I am going to be weary of the more potent harvests from now on. Too much of a sativa effect to be of any medical benefit. But the lower ones are perfect

Star Killer

4/20/2016
Picked up "Star Killer #17". Awesome medicine. Perfect for my chronic pain issues and insomnia. Super strong! I've been in a rut lately with different strains, being dissatisfied with the stronger indicas in my area. This one is perfect! The nugs are extremely resinous. Definitely going to keep an eye out for this in the future!

Buddha's Sister

Very pleasant strain, as mellow as the name implies. Good for both day and night time use. Great for managing pain in the day, has a fulfilling body feel but leaves you with a clear mind and doesn't weigh you down. If you have enough it'll definitely get you to sleep. Has nice uplifting qualities, puts you in a good mood. Even at a low THC % (15.67%, would normally avoid something that low but I was out of medicine and the indica varieties were lacking), this was a very enjoyable medicine. Exactly as advertised, everything I expected it to be. I'm looking forward to trying a higher %
