S........d

Gets the job done but it’s nothing special. I was expecting more cerebral effects. It is a good daytime strain though. Doesn’t put you to sleep.

Convenience is king at this location. It’s nice to be able to schedule an appointment, show up, and get what you want. No long lines. No lazy dealers who’ll get around to it when they feel like. That’s really the only reason I shop here. I’ve made two trips and have been kind of let down by the product. I guess I just haven’t gotten the right strain yet. I’ll try them one more time and see how gorilla glue treats me. The place is nice. Small and dark. Clean. The staff are great. I feel like they’re excited for the customer and are eager to help. This will most likely remain my go to place since they’re close by and are super convenient. As long as I enjoy gorilla glue. Or they expand their menu. Oh yeah, that is the one major downside. Limited options. Hope that changes.

Recreational purchases are now available to Mass residents. Finally. I mean, it’s an hour away. But that’s not too bad to be able to pick it up legally, and hopefully get the good stuff. I underestimated the demand. I think everyone underestimated the demand. The demand created a major hassle. Traffic. Lack of parking. The lack of parking resulted in somewhat lengthy walking. Lastly, the line from hell. Think Disney World, peak season. Then double it. No exaggeration. I waited almost 4 hours. Yes. You read that right. The cherry on top is that it was painfully cold outside. Toes numb, stinging ears, burning fingers cold. Very few people were prepared for the situation. Like I said, we all underestimated the demand. We thought, yay, weed is legal! Time to go get some! I’m sure there will be a line. But an hour isn’t that bad. Ha. We thought. There were so many people who were not dressed for the winter cold. And yes, at one point it actually did snow. We seriously braved cold bitter Mother Nature. Every one has their own reasons. I just wanted to be a small part of history. And see if the product is worth it. After all of that, I finally get in the store and it’s beautiful. Way nicer than a liquor store. It smelled amazing. It was sweet and floral and citrusy and a bit piney. I’m not an expert weed snob but the smell was seriously intoxicating. Metaphorically speaking of course. You’re actually greeted by a sign that says consumption in store is not permitted. The decor is modern. Very zen. Sophisticated without being pretentious. Just a clean, fun, bright slice of heaven. The staff were great. While we were in line inside the store, there were people attending to us with menus. By the time we got inside I think they ran out so we shared them. I snapped a pic so I could pass it along faster. There was also a very kind person who demonstrated their cartridge and battery system. That was super helpful. I actually ended up getting that product because it was perfect for my needs. And speaking of the product; fantastic. I got the blueberry and Pineapple Express cartridges and the palm battery. On the packaging it suggests to “sip don’t rip.” I heeded those words wisely because it does pack a punch. In terms of pricing, it’s a bit expensive. I mean, I know I’m paying a premium for everything involved. Taxes. Rent/mortgage. Salaries. But I can say that the product is worth it. Great quality. Great flavor. Great potency. I can’t complain. Overall, it was a hellish experience in that line. I think making sure everyone has a menu, or a picture of a menu, prior to getting into the store, it would speed the process up. That way people already know what they want. And maybe they can have a brave attendant go through the line and answer any questions. Again, that way they can help people be ready at the register. But to be fair, Cultivate didn’t cause the weather. The demand was bigger than any of us anticipated. They did well with what they had. And you have to admit, once you’re in the store, it’s a great experience. I just hope that one day the lines go down so I don’t have to plan an entire day around it. If anyone plans on visiting during the winter, I recommend bringing chairs, wear super warm clothing, bring a box o joe from dunks, and come with a group of friends that will keep you entertained. The wait will still be long, but it doesn’t have to be unpleasant. Thanks for reading this far. ❤️
