Different Types of Weed
Know Your Strain Types
Not all cannabis does the same thing. The type of strain you pick shapes how you feel—relaxed, focused, creative, or somewhere in between.
Indicas produce dense, resinous buds rich in THC and myrcene, a terpene that promotes deep relaxation. These strains target your body more than your head, making them ideal for unwinding after work, easing pain, or preparing for sleep. Most people save indica for the evening when it's time to melt into the couch.
Terpenes & Why Your Nose Knows Best
Terpenes are aromatic compounds that give each strain its smell and shape its effects. Knowing a few key terpenes helps you pick the right flower.
Myrcene
Earthy and musky. Brings relaxing, sedative effects. Common in indicas, it amplifies THC's calming properties.
Limonene
Citrus-fresh and uplifting. Boosts mood and eases stress. Strains high in limonene feel bright and energizing.
Pinene
Smells like pine. Promotes alertness and memory retention. Can counter some of THC's foggy effects. Shows up in sativa-dominant strains.
Caryophyllene
Spicy and peppery. Works directly with your endocannabinoid system. Known for anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effects. Common in balanced hybrids.
Flower Does What The Others Can't
Full-spectrum experience: Flower preserves the plant's natural balance of cannabinoids and terpenes, delivering the "entourage effect." Most people find this more satisfying than isolated compounds.
Immediate effects: Inhaling delivers results within minutes. Take a hit, see how you feel, adjust accordingly. Edibles can't match that control.
Sensory experience: The flower engages all your senses: citrus bursts, earthy funk, and unique textures. Each strain feels different.
Versatile: Roll it, pack it, or vaporize it. Flower works however you prefer to consume.
Picking Your Bud Like You Know What You're Doing
Picking the right cannabis is part preference, part science. Here's what to consider:
Know your goal:
Relaxation or sleep? Go indica. Energy or focus? Pick sativa. Balanced effects? Try hybrids. Benefits without getting high? Choose CBD-rich strains.
Start smart:
THC potency varies. New to cannabis? Stick to 15–20% THC and take small hits. Experienced? You can handle 25% and above.
Trust your nose:
A flower's smell reveals its terpene profile. Citrusy scents mean uplifting effects. Earthy or musky smells signal relaxation.
Ask our budtenders:
Everyone reacts differently to cannabinoids and terpenes. Our team can guide you to what works for your tolerance and preferences.

Enjoying Cannabis Without Overdoing It
Start low, go slow:
Take one or two small hits and wait a few minutes before consuming more. This helps you avoid overdoing it.
Know the timing:
Smoking or vaping kicks in almost immediately, peaks around 30 minutes, and fades over two to three hours. Don't drive or operate machinery while high.
Store it right:
Keep your bud in an airtight, child-resistant container away from light, heat, and humidity. Store it somewhere kids and pets can't reach.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Cannabis flower is the smokable part of the cannabis plant, the bud. It's what most people mean when they say "weed." Flower contains cannabinoids like THC and CBD, plus terpenes that shape its smell and effects. You can smoke it, vaporize it, or use it to make edibles. It's the most popular way to consume cannabis because it delivers fast effects and preserves the plant's full range of compounds.
There are four main types: indica (relaxing, body-focused), sativa (energizing, cerebral), hybrid (a balanced blend of both), and CBD-rich strains (offering therapeutic benefits without the high). Your choice depends on what you're after: relaxation, focus, or something in between.
Premium flower comes from quality growers who don't rush the process. It's properly cured, rich in terpenes, and lab-tested for potency and purity. Cheap flower often lacks flavor, burns harsh, and delivers inconsistent effects. You get what you pay for.
Indicas are relaxing and body-focused, characterized by sedative terpenes such as myrcene. Sativas are energizing and cerebral, loaded with uplifting terpenes like limonene and pinene. Hybrids blend both for balanced effects.
Effects kick in within minutes and typically last two to three hours. How long depends on the strain's potency, your tolerance, and how much you consume.
Keep it in an airtight, child-resistant container in a cool, dark place. Heat, humidity, and light degrade potency and flavor. Always store cannabis away from kids and pets.
No. Anyone 21+ with valid ID can shop here. Medical patients may qualify for tax exemptions—ask our budtenders for details.
Not across state lines or on planes, cannabis is still illegal federally. Within California, you can carry up to one ounce (28.5g) in a sealed container.
