These people seems to obviously pop up a bit in this thread . Wondering if anyone has designated them caregiver ? They say they offer a z up front for joining and then every 3 months another free z . Sounds pretty unique.

Actually I haven't been in there in a while, just finally got the time to snap some pics and write them up. I wouldn't put too much stock in what they currently have since odds are, they'll never have it again. Seems they're more of a clearinghouse of whatever nugs they can get their hands on right now as they wait for their first big crop to come in. I hope you got lucky that day and that Blueberry and AK are the bomb.Quote:

Hopefully some better strain organization and an additional counter with staff will straighten things out, but that Sweet Skunk that Shane creates is definitely in my top 10 CO dispensary nugs. I, too liked the Double Gum they had/have there... spicy, strong, almost pure (if not 100% pure!) sativa which was like $12 or $13 a gram a little while back.
But the exercise equipment must go :)

Part of me feels as if I've fallen down the rabbit hole - legal pot? In America? In my lifetime? No way!; and a bigger part feels like the kid who finally got to take his snotty nose off of the window and go shopping in the candy store - but doesn't have a clue what's what.Quote:

For decades since, though, it's been what ever I could find and/or afford. Now that I can legally buy bud, I'm starting with expectations shaped by that background so, a lot like FarmerSteve, I'm pretty easily satisfied at first. Just having a choice of meds, being able to talk about what they will do, a reasonable price and meds that deliver what was promised makes me giddy. Now I'm feeling like an explorer, trying out dispensaries and strains to see what's going on. I look forward to each one.
I was certified at Alameda Wellness, down the street from Healing House. $190 for State, Dr, Notary. They were just getting going last month, had 7-8 strains, friendly, caring people. Quality was fine for me, prices high.
I've since been to Healing House, Highlands Health and Herbal Connections. Tried 10 strains, still learning to identify the differences in highs other than gross pain relief.
One thing about the whole scene doesn't make sense to me. That's the value of a patient. Without a legal patient there's no legal pot biz; the legal pot biz is profitable so, someone in the business cycle should be paying for patients, in cash or kind. So far the dispensary model doesn't have that, that I can see.
So it seems the way to go is to find a really good caregiver. I'd like to find a good caregiver for my primary needs, and shop dispensaries for new strains to try out.
I personally think 2 oz free/mth should be possible - adequate supply for patient, adequate extra for caregiver for costs/profit, fair's fair. Don't see it out there, though. Found a caregiver that will give 1 free oz/mth after being with him for two years, and I've set up a meeting with another comparable.
After all that, here's the real point. for StrainMan, Lampost, et al; the info you're passing to DietBlonde is invaluable for all us newbies. What do you look for, why - all the insider knowledge us long-time brick buyers lack.
So, gonna start a new thread, How to select/evaluate bud? Is this info available anyplace else? StrainMan, ya could start a Broadsterdam University - at least online, in a friendly community.
Namaste.
Can we please stop talking about C3? There are numerous other (way better) spots actually in or closer to Denver. Two or three of you love Ricky or Shane and thats obvious. Lets move on!
Chill out King, this was a reasonable discussion. A shop that had great reviews had a couple come back the other way and we talked it out. I have NO personal feelings for Rick and or Shane, but they're nice dudes and there's a lot of evidence that they do good in the community. The End.
And starter and diet, my email is [email protected].
Starter, I know a guy who will offer you a VERY good deal and is a great guy as well. I think you'll find it of interest.
:hippy:
DB sorry about that post. It came off a bit dickish in hindsight. I'm just pissy because I'm out of state for work and am unable to go get more herb. My job is actually trying to transfer me out of state. I think I may quit (or hopefully get laid off after refusing to relocate). MMJ is not the only reason I love Colorado of course.
THC is a fantastic place and the guy I met was obviously very knowledgeable. I went up 1-2 days after strainman posted his review and I haven't been up since although I'm dying to get back up there. Its just a killer drive for me.
DB don't be afraid to give bad reviews... Not saying you are at all now. Nothing against strainman but I don't think he's ever posted a review that's less than good. Sorry strainman, I've got respect for you and am grateful for some of the gems you uncovered. I just saw 1-2 good reviews for places that I thought weren't too great. I guess opinions vary.
My experience at highland health was pretty bad. There was like 8 stoner kids hanging out. Don't know if they were all employees or just friends of employees. Super overpriced and average quality. I asked the guy about the strain "Romulan" and he confidently told me it was a Sativa without hesitation. I was pretty sure it was an Indica but I kept my mouth shut. He was pretty cocky and had little knowledge. Anyway, this place is another one that I would say is mainly about the dolla dolla bill y'all. Poor staff, high price to quality ratio, sick looking clones, bad location/access, etc.
Also, something I've been wanting to address is the difference in effects between Indica and Sativa. This probably warrants its own thread. Honestly I think the difference in effects is negligible. I bet many people couldn't tell you which they just smoked if you didn't tell them. I smoked stuff from the black market for several years and often didn't know what I was getting. Before I thought it was all bullshit. The only time I really thought I noticed something is when I got back from THC. The trainwreck got me high, but didn't make me tired at all. Then when I got home smoked some heavy Indica, HK Cheese and was literally couch-locked. However, this could also be due to the fact that it was later in the day and I was tired and had been smoking already earlier.
Anyway, I continue to be skeptical of the difference in effects of indica vs sativa. I mean, its the same shit in both breeds!! If there is a difference it is very subtle. Its much more subtle than people at dispensaries make it out to be. I love when they ask, "so are you looking for an indica or a sativa," and I just say, "I don't care. Just let me see your strongest, best grown strains".
PS, hey DB I think FarmerSteve thinks you're a girl.
I know I did at first. And you know what a great find a stoner chick is for a stoner guy!! I love my stoner girlfriend. The only problem is she smokes too much of my weed!!
wow man. i can smoke just about anything and at the very least tell you it was more sativa than indica or vice versa. they make me feel completely different most times. help with different things too. sativa every time if i can help it.
