JARS Cannabis - 24th Street (Med/Rec)

4/27/2024
I order online and pick up and have also used delivery. As a high risk chica, I'm thankful that make their store safe-ish for immune challenged peeps like me. I really LOVE the cheer/knowledge of the budtenders. My 2 things magic wand like and for peeps to BOLO for whatever it may be worth: 1-They have been having some issues tech wise with pre order. I now order from Leafly but I preferred their previous version as the sort function beyond one level bites (ie sorting for 1g carts instead of just them all) 2- Please don't put disposable carts in the same list (this is more an issue with their previous ordering system and Dime all in one). I really am not into the disposable. I only do carts cuz at times its the best way to pull when I feel like shite (med patient). What I'm saying is, I know it's not the best ethical environmental use as it, but then to restrict my choice further, just doesn't sit right. Again, it's not just a JARS issue but an industry issue cuz also see, med patients also tend to be losing their vision (like me) and please make it easier for sight impaired to not have to read the fine fine print to know what we are ordering. KWIM? Still my favourite dispensary.

One of the few places (at least in the S. Valley) that takes covid seriously and realizes that some of us med patients have really complex medical conditions. I myself am identified as high risk of death from covid by my doctors. The Phoenix Dispo are one of the few that offer either curbside OR delivery. And as of 1/14, with ICU's and hospitals at capacity, is protecting their employees too. TY for all this. For all you've done in 2020 and now, you are now my forever dispo. Thank you for taking my life seriously and giving me options to get my meds safely. You have earned my lifelong support. Again, TY. PS: now get in some Dr. Burns topicals please :D

Wow, the taste of pine and menthol (almost diesely) are strong; at least on my vape at 370F. There is also something slightly sweet as well, but more on the lingering taste that lasts after the smoke is gone, almost citrusy. I enjoy the flavor a lot. Okay, now that I'm further in, hell, the taste is AMAZING. I get more of the sweet citrus. YUMM! Beyond that, the relaxation was almost immediate like within 30 seconds or so. The stress of daily life just melted away. There is a tingly buzzing all over that is quite pleasant. The knot in my stomach has melted away. It's still a bit early in my buzz to figure out the full effects, but hell, I'm writing this review, so that's something. Not to mention have other stuff to do, so I guess it's also good for focus and maybe a bit of energy, at least at first. I don't like couch lock strains too much, and this doesn't seem to be doing that to me. It also took a bit of my muscle soreness and the shaking feeling of my muscles twitching. Getting rid of the muscle twitching was almost immediate as well though getting rid of the pain took about 10 minutes or so. Thank goodness Bloom still has this strain available as I think I'm going to pick up some more.

I like this strain as a pain killer. It's also great and relaxing my body. However it borrows from both qualities of Kush and Sour D, but in a wrong kind of way, at least for me. While I feel sleepy, my mind races and I cannot fall asleep. Not the greatest strain if you want to get up do things either. I CAN focus with this. This is more an after work out, just going to chill and watch a movie strain. Brain wise, concentration is easy, but I found I got bored easily. Thoughts were not frenetic, but it seems they just wanted to find new things. I'll keep it in my tool box as it was great at knocking out my shoulder pain that had been bothering me for the last week. It's just I can't use this as a wake and bake strain. Flavor on my FF2 was kind of odd. It was an earthy diesel with an almost sage finish.

It DOES taste like Cherry Pie at higher vape temps.Most of the time I don't get the flavors that might be in a name, but I see it at higher temps(I vaped at 420F on my Firefly2). At 360F the flavor was very earthy and sweet, though not quite as yummy as that at higher temps. This is one of those strains that pulls my eyes and I feel like an anime character and probably as happy. I know some people say they are giggly and talkative, but not me. I'm more relaxed and in a quiet contemplative place. There is a body tingle as well. One can kind of focus, but more of a hazy focus. Music and art are easy to do, but if you need to do complex actions probably wait till you get home. Though I have that heavy body feeling and super relaxed, I'm not sleepy. This is one of those great afternoon strains for me when you need the pain relief but just need to relax and not sleep. At lower vape temps I was able to focus a bit more and still had that nice body relaxation. At higher temps, the body is heavy and relaxed and it becomes hard to focus, but yet I'm alert. This is a good strain in my toolbox for muscle cramps and pain relief.

I'm not sure if it was the cure or what, but I HATED the taste of this strain alone. It had a very skunky flavor (almost what I imagine cat pee would be like). In the bag it smelled more like fresh grass with a bit of a tea smell, but in my vaporizer...blech! When mixed I don't notice it as much. For the medicinal effects, it was good at taking the pain away without couchlock. I was able to focus and stay on task but eased some some of the racing, negative thoughts. It's actually pretty good medicinally just tastes horrid to me. I will say that it really mixes well with others. It packs a potent pain relieving punch mixed in with other strains where I don't notice the flavor.

I think I like the flavors of this strain the best. I really like the citrusy sweet after taste when I set my firefly2 to 340. It was one of my better tasting strains. For me the taste itself is kinda addictive. I want to keep vaping just for the flavor. It leaves a wonderful citrusy lavender after taste after the exhale. I really cannot get over how good it tastes to me. Taste alone, I think this might be my favorite. As to the high itself, I mean it's nothing to really knock your socks off, but not bad either. I'm in a clear-headed, introspective, relaxed state. For me this is a strain the makes me want to shut up and just listen, be it music or nature. I'm not as energetic as some reviews, but not couch locked either. Just totally chilled. Maybe I'm not giving it enough credit. It's just not a super flashy high but a good one. Overall I'd say this is more an afterwork or afternoon chill strain. You know, when you get back from work or class and just want to listen to music and relax but still need to be awake as your day isn't yet over kind of strain.

Got this stuff from Bloom in Phoenix at the suggestion of Jeff, one of the budtenders there. I'm quite impressed with the recommendation. I really love the taste. It seemed to inherit a lot of it's Citrus from Super Silver Haze. TBH, this is one, when set to 370degrees on my Firefly tastes just like lemon drops (more like lemon heads). When I set it to 390 I get hints of tea and the citrus. Heck, the flower smelled like lemon verbena before being crushed. It is so very, very yummy! I note that other people say this is an energetic strain, alas it is not so for me (and why only 4 stars). However, it is AWESOME for that melty body feeling.I just finished a hard workout, vaped a couple of hits, and am feeling so good right now, but energetic is not the work I'd use. I will also note I have those half moon anime eyes right now. I'm not totally couch locked. I will say that I can keep thoughts on track which is good as some strains, you forget what you did the second before. Overall, I really enjoy this strain, and want to say a big thank you to Jeff.

This strain is sooooooo worth the hype! Okay, so I left an earlier review today, but that was within the first two hours of partaking of this glorious strain. The taste was a treat to my mouth and reminded me of the lemonheads I had as a child (the hard ones, not the new chewy ones). The smell at grinding was more super sour altoids, but the exhale of my vape, super sweet and tangy. Yumm. The next thing I noticed was a super body high. Oh lordy does it feel good. It was a nice fuzzy feeling that took away any and all pain. I will say that in the first hour or so, I was so couchlocked. During that time, I did absolutely nothing and it was everything I thought it could be. About an hour after that I had the energy to do a fantastic workout. I'd been having trouble for the last month to get into a good rhythm with breathing and today I found it. Everything was so effortless. All my joint stiffness was gone. TBH, it felt as if all my joints were immersed in butter. My arthritis, gloriously gone! My mind scattered a bit at first. However, the frentic pace of my thoughts was not anxiety inducing, but a happy flitting from thought to thought. I enjoyed where my mind was taking me. I enjoyed getting lost in my thoughts. I tended to see more of the joy in things instead of the negative. But I saved the best for last, it's the super euphoria I feel, even now at 5 hours later. I didn't even take all that much, just a wee pinch to try it out(just a warning, it's pretty potent). The cares of the world ease, and I'm happy to be alive. After the couch lock, I was able to work out and it was one of the best ever workouts I've ever had (and I'm one who actually likes to work out, but it can be a struggle more often than not). It allowed me to have the runner's high while high. I often wonder if the complete lack of pain is what is allowing me to feel more of the happy/euphoria than others. I'm in pain often as I have pretty severe crohn's and arthritis. I suggest to anyone with pain, and who can take sativas, to try this out. Thank you Arizona Organix for this wonderful experience. You'll probably see me again soon.

I was very, very impressed by my visit here. My budtender was VERY familiar with most of the products they sold. The set up was great and it didn't feel rushed when I got to the back. I felt taken care of from door to door. Their service is great. I'll also say the flower I got from them was terrific. The flowers were not broken up and it well cut and cured. I will say I'll be back. It's a little more out of the way for me, but this place is definitely in my top 2.
