NETA - Northampton (Rec)

Everything about this place was incredible until I saw the flowers. I may have come in on an 'off' day, but it seemed like all their flowers are hella larfy. Despite this all the strains I got smoked well, and I definitely don't regret my trip, it just doesn't have any 'bag appeal' (which I feel is a requirement at the typical dispensary prices in MA). With their first time customer deal it definitely doesn't hurt to check out, and everyone should stop by because they are the only shop in the area.
Also, make sure to call ahead if you want a particular strain. I went specifically for the GG#4, which was listed on their DAILY menu, but they were out of when I arrived around 4pm. Some (recreational) people may like a constantly rotating stock, but it seemed a lot of the customers their were looking for strains that worked for them previously but were no longer in stock. This makes it kind of dodgy when medicating, having to learn your reaction to new strains all the time.
FYI I tried:
-Harlox (CBD strain, zero flavor, no discernable high, but INCREDIBLE medical benifit, definitely a new favorite of mine)
-Tangerine Haze (Taste was very mild and not what I expect with this strain, they might be growing a whack pheno, VERY intense sativa euphoric high which tends to make me feel anxious)
-Chem Dog (Intense flavors, great indica dom high, will probably grab this one again)
All things considered definitely check it out if you're in the area.
