This was the most like I imagine a true cannabis apothecary would be - patients on both sides of the counter talking about what works instead of what gets you baked. Don't get me wrong, getting baked is just fine (and you'll find plenty of fine weed here that work great for that) but I'm more interested in pain relief. So their nice selection of CBD-heavy meds, in flower, extract and tincture, was really welcome.

Very nice people, great meds, and knowledgable service. Like other people have observed the place is small and the parking lot is eentsy. But the guy in the pipe shop next door is super friendly.

Harlequin

This is a hard strain to evaluate the strength of, because it isn't that conventionally stoney. Mentally, there's not that much of a sense of being 'high'. Coexisting with that, though there's some bodily sense of being completely blasted. It's like there's a CBD aspect of a conventional weed's effect, and a THC aspect. Harlequin has the CBD aspect beat all to hell, and is an utter wimp in the THC aspect. So smoking this for the first time might be a strange experience, like it was for me. The effect on pain is really remarkable for something that feels like weird junk weed. What's great about it is after the weenie little head high has petered out (maybe 15 minutes) the CBDs are still going strong for a couple more hours. Sometimes though I've had Harlequin not work on pain at all, until I have a whiff of something higher in THC. Then the pain relief will come in. That's worth trying if Harlequin isn't making it for you. I haven't had this as a medible, tincture, or topical (or better yet RSO), but I think it would be fabulous this way.

Really nice up strain, energizing and cheerful, with good pain control for such a clear-headed high. Perfect morning strain.

Great pain relief with a focused, energetic high. If you get 'that' pheno, terrific! But one of the great day strains even if you don't.

Nice cherry taste. Euphoria hits first with a strong head rush. Tingly feeling throughout the body follows, when that clears I notice the headache and back pain I had a few minutes ago has subsided. A very happy head high, sort of floaty and dizzy, combined with a kind of lazy warm body high. Finally as the rush settles, there is a very calm, relaxing high that's just a bit fuzzy-headed - good for relaxing but not so great for something you need to be sharp for. I could see this strain being very nice for post-surgery pain relief along with pain meds, or even maybe without. I could also see it for anxiety relief. Or just to unwind in the evening for stress. Very nice!

This is great medicine for when you need to sleep. It has good pain relief in the fifteen minutes or so before I fall out. Little hangover in the morning, easily dispelled by a cup of coffee.

Good pain relief in a very cerebral sativa. Nicely motivating and just a little speedy, but not at all edgy for me. Good relief of ME-CFS fatigue. Very nice choice for morning pain, also throughout the day when you need to get stuff done. My sample was harvested with trichs just turning milky.
