RISE Dispensaries Abingdon

When you walk in to the dispensary, the atmosphere is amazing. Very friendly staff. Always a pleasure to be there. Love this place.

Love this place! I’ve been going here since they opened. Only downside is that I had to pay a lot of money to get my doctors note and my medical marijuana card to be able to shop here. Very expensive to buy from here too but the products are top notch. The edibles here are strong! They are very knowledgeable and can recommend the best products for you.

I’ve been to this dispensary twice now. The first time was the first time I’d ever been into a medical marijuana dispensary. I was very nervous about the whole ordeal, but the receptionist was beyond welcoming, she told me everything to expect for my first time smoking. She asked me if I had any knowledge of marijuana, to which I said no. She began explaining to me the little she could while I was filling out all of the paperwork and then told me she had arranged for me to meet a pharmacist. Just by my first time talking to someone in a place like this. The pharmacist was also beyond friendly towards me and explained things like different ways to medicate, the differences between Indica, Sativa, and Hybrids. She also explained to me what terps were and how to hand pick strains for my symptoms. This information has been beyond useful for me and allowed me to research more about marijuana and all of its benefits!

The staff and facility are both awesome first of all. Although, it may be time to look into some new genetics/growers. Having this same strains over and over gets old, especially with so few really good options. THC % definitely isn't everything, but for the pricing it's EXTREMELY lacking. This day in age with the genetics available out there pheno's should be vetted in quality control for smell/taste/thc%. Anything you choose to put in a room with low yields or thc less than 25% is just such a total waste of time and space. Maybe time to look into a new head grower, maybe not somebody with a big time Botany degree but somebody who actually knows how to produce cannabis on a large scale. So yea, overall, really need new/better genetics and also higher THC%'s to match the VERY high price tag on these products, so people feel like they got their money worth.
