If I could give them 0 stars I would!... 2 days ago i bought a 6 pack of rooted clones from them, turns out none of them were rooted, and they ripped me off! I called them today to find out what the deal was and the manager tells me that they were not rooted clones and that they were just cuttings..... but when i went in to buy them, they were super adamant that they were rooted clones...They are an embarrassment to the entire growing community and make me ashamed to have ever been so naive as to trust them.... I hope that none of u have the ill fortune of having to deal with these people as they are nothing but scam artists and hacks....

excellent shwag, after maybe 20 tokes I caight a head change, I thought the initial consultation was weird too. Guy was creepy and kept going on about his massage oil and made me feel uncomfortable

When I first went in to register as a new patient, it was a pretty formal experience. Like when you visit a new doctor for the first time. I was provided with information about the different types of products available in the store and the sorts of health benefits each product was associated with.
Some of the other reviews are negative regarding the prices, but any organic product whether in the cannabis industry or the food industry will be more expensive! Just something to keep in mind.
They sell keif by the gram and it is a great way to add potency and flavor to your flower products, or you can just smoke it by itself for a super tasty toke. The Dragon's Blood tincture is a great way to medicate without having to smoke, additionally it is a lower calorie alternative to most edibles as well.
The next on my list is to try their cannabutter so I can make a little magic of my own right at home. : )
Thank you guys!

Meh. Way better choices in town. Staff couldn't answer basic inquiries.

Why would anyone shop here? They are selling butter and tincture making kits that is just a bag of cut up stems and some lame directions. What a joke! No selection of bud, no edibles. Compared to any of the other dispensaries, this one doesn't even rate a one star!

I bought a cartridge here that did not work. Instead of replacing the defective product, they will give you excuses about the manufacture and send you on your way empty handed. I spent my last few dollars on this cartridge and had to walk several miles in order to be rejected.
I will never buy another product from this dispensary. There are plenty of competitors in this city that offer better prices, better quality and more friendly service.

Nice location with friendly and welcoming atmosphere.
I shop Dispensaries for WAX!
The wax from this dispensary is terrible!
•Sticky
•Very dark brown
•Does not burn clean
•Crusty residue remains after vaporizing
•Earthy musty smell
•Poorly packaged
This wax does not seem to be properly degassed. No test results were offered when I purchased the wax and they said they would contact me when the results arrived but I never heard from them.

This location is ok. Quality of the flowers was decent. Selection was lacking. I think I had 4 choices on the day I went by. The flowers I sampled had a proper cure. No seeds or excessive lumber was included with my flowers which I appreciate. Some dispensary carry the driggers strain and I'm glad to say nothing like that here. I give them a solid C , they need a larger selection of house strains. Who doesn't have a blue dream? I think their blue dream is 3rd best "blue dream" in abq . They need something unique. Thanks

I’ve been impressed by the selection of product in this place. It’s great to see a small business do well all because of their reliance on providing good service, great product, and smart marketing with sales and promotions. I’ll always plan on this being one of my go to spots. Purple Lemon Ghostbuster is my personal favorite and it’s always in stock.

First time going to this place. The guys did not know the donation pricing on their products and seemed to get annoyed when I asked questions. Not much of an indica selection. Not impressed by this place.

They have their act together! I couldn't have had a better experience. They have numerous meds available with excellent quality. Not to mention very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Office is pleasant with easy access to I-25. I will continue to use Sandia Botanicals!
This pharmacy is my favorite in the state.

I consider myself very picky when it comes to my cannabis use - a self admitted snob. This is the best dispensary in town. It's tucked away which is what I prefer for discretion since I am a professional. Their product is on par with the best product up north and was cured properly.
Simply put, they are superior to the other dispensaries I have visited in Albuquerque. This is the only dispensary I have visited here who has cared about the lineages of their product. This is important to me, for it's not just % indica vs. sativa. First staff I have encountered in NM which was knowledgeable about products. I recommend and will return. The GDP was great. I'd love to see them continue to stock legendary strains others aren't providing here.

I have visited several times. The staff is great. Met one one of their growers today and from what he had to share, they have a passion for the plants, understand ecosystems on a large scale, and seem committed to the organic growing process.
Coming from a "Spirit of the Plant" perspective, none of the comments I blurted out seemed strange to them. (That may be common for those of us who partake. I don't know.)
They know their extraction processes as well. Thursday is double punch day and ?% off as well. Perks may even out the higher price points that some have mentioned. This is my fourth visit.
Regarding the detailed bio-chem details on each product, I would expect that from any dispensary. When something works, I damn sure want to know everything about it.

Very cool, relaxed shop. Good selection of rooted plants, buds, edibles, etc. The Flo, a very smooth sativa, highly recommended by Megan was phenomenal. I'm looking forward to my next visit in. Highly recommended.

Vaped a bag of Sour Cream from this dispensary and after seven hits i'm medicated.
My first time going to this dispensary, the guy at the front desk was helpful at providing me information to complete the registration forms; as well as any questions I had. Compared to a lot of the other dispensaries around in the area the menu is a bit pricy, but if you're looking for specific other combinations, that's not to much farther SB "Sandia Botanicals" has it. However the Feng Shui of the place is very eh creepy, the place needs a tuneup some color, a plant and at least a rug. However they aren't experts but they know what they are doing take it from a local. Go Lobos.

Be Cautioned - Check all clones/plants from this facility before introducing them into your garden, My last clones had spider mites really badly, and you couldn't tell when you purchased, only a week or 2 after when the infestation gets bad. This place has good medication for the most part, Only place i know that charges 14+ a gram for it though. Sorry guys, wish I could say better

Definitely do not go to this place for good high quality meds! Picked up 2 grams Nothing about their flowers were healthy. The grower even tried selling me a clone with powdery mildew on it! If they are selling me this kind of product obviously they have no idea what how the hell to grow medical cannabis correctly! Save to say ill never return.

Overpriced, able to answer questions satisfactorily, and just a strange environment.

Are you kidding me? The meds here are wet, not cured properly & taste harsh. Not sure how they are in business. terrible all around.
I called to explain that I have a rosin cartridge that I’m unable to use. I was told that a note will be applied with a manger approval. I would receive a 20% discount on my next purchase for the inconvenience. When I arrived to purchase my meds. I was told that there was no note applied to my account and that I would have to pay full price for another cartridge. I’m very disappointed with this level of customer service after I reached out before I showed up to waste my time and money.👎

meds had mites and mold, too damp, poorly cured, bad attitude when I told them, lost me as a customer
I'm sorry my pick up experience was awful I left there was so much anxiety. The ladies were nice but they should only deal with one customer at a time they were grabbing multiple people's cards and IDs all together and then going inside and coming back out and having everyone their IDs and cards and not changing gloves. I think they need to deal with one person at a time and change their gloves after each person

first time visit this morning. the buds were of good quality and the service was excellent. not a large selection of flowers,
only 6, also not much of a smoking accessory selection, kinda pricey compared with nearby competition.
