Dispensary Menu New York

What does a Dispensary in New York Sell?

There are several dispensaries, both for recreational and medical use, throughout the state of New York. One of the benefits of purchasing through a local dispensary is that they are held to certain control standards so you can feel confident in the quality, constitution, and concentration of the cannabis product you are purchasing. This is important when you are consuming for medicinal purposes, as the most effective application often coincides with a specific dose. While there are a lot of online shops to meet your weed consumption needs, physical stores are of benefit as well. Not only do they provide jobs for those in your community, but they also allow you to see products first hand and ask questions of the professionals. Many of the dispensaries sell a wide range of products including concentrations, flowers, topicals, CBD oils, and edibles. You can also find gear, such as vape pens, to use your new product. If you are only looking for quality seeds and prefer to shop online, Weed Seeds is the perfect solution. Our catalog is well categorized and includes detailed portfolios for each seed so you have no issue finding the ideal strain to suit your growing experience and pot preferences. We also have a knowledgeable team that is accessible through email or phone to assist you as you shop and cultivate. We just happen to be one of the seed banks that ship to New York, so you can get the process started online and have your seeds en route to your doorstep in no time!

Edibles

Aside from the few die-hard fans of Cheech and Chong, eating cannabis-based products was mostly unheard of even a short 30 years ago. Now, these hold a special place amongst pot users and are an essential aspect of the marijuana industry. Edibles are easy to take and provide long-lasting effects. They are less harmful to your body than smoking and still offer the same list of health benefits. Making your own can be a cost-effective way to get your hand on them and allows you to control the dose. The first step is to decarboxylate the weed. You do this by grinding the flowers and roasting them for 1 hour at 230 to 248 degrees Fahrenheit. You then pour high-proof vodka or vegetable glycerin over the roasted flowers and let them sit for 2 weeks, up to 2 months. Once you have strained out the plant matter, your tincture can serve as the base for items like Gummies, Taffy, and other Candies. Another option is to make or buy Capsules. This is excellent for precise dose control, as they often come in a range of milligrams from 2 up to 100. By baking your flowers at 220 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes, your bud will powder. Mixing this powder with coconut oil and soy lecithin and heating it for 3 to 6 hours, will leave you with the perfect filling for your homemade capsules. Last, you can buy Drinks which provide low doses in a short time, perfect for medical users!

Topicals

Topical products are a category of cannabis items that are meant to be applied to your skin. They are absorbed through your pores and sink in to relieve physical aches. These will not get you high, but they do have the power to relieve acute or chronic muscle, nerve, and inflammatory pain. These products include items such as Lotions, balms, salves, and Creams. There are tons of great ready-made options, but, much like edibles, it is also relatively easy to make your own at home. Making your own allows you the freedom to control the ingredients and select preferred scents. The process is similar, in that you decarboxylate the flower and heat it in oil. By using low heat, you can draw out the terpenes and cannabinoids without burning them off. After you have strained out the plant matter, you have created an oil base that can be added to DIY recipes or your favorite, previously purchased items. Using the Oils on their own to roll onto your temples for headache relief, or into your feet as a sleep aid, is one option. Another choice could be concocting your own cream, lotion, or salve, using a simple recipe. You can always add in other healing components, like vitamin E, shea butter, or rosehip oil to create an even more nourishing product for your skin. This is a popular option for those looking for relief from conditions like arthritis but can do without the cerebral high, the couch-lock, or the inevitable sleepiness.

Flowers

Much like grading beef products, cannabis has a tier system that determines the quality of all the various strains. The evaluation is based on traits of the herb such as flower structure, trichome density, terpene profile, flavor, and effects. The lowest tier, A, is considered a bad weed. This includes flowers that were either harvested early or treated poorly in the curation process. They might have chemical impurities or pathogens present and could instill adverse reactions like dizziness and headaches. They tend to be light, airy, and dark in color. They have a low cannabinoid content and are musky or weak in flavor. AA is the next level, which is usually the lowest grade a dispensary will sell. This is a suitable option for those on a budget or who are interested in making their own edibles. The buds range from light or dull green, orange and brown. They generally have a low odor, which is indicative of a mild, though satisfying high. The next tier, AAA, used to be the highest. It includes spongy, aromatic buds with high THC content. The effects usually come on quick and the high is smooth and potent. Bud that is placed on this tier is the most common, as it is reasonably priced, powerful, and delicious. The highest tier is the best ganja on the market. AAAA has the most diverse aromatics and flavors, the most vibrant appearance, and the high THC, CBD, and terpene content. These buds can exhibit bright orange and purple hues and dispense an exceptionally formidable stream of effects.

Concentrates

Concentrates are another popular cannabis item that you may wish to explore. They became popular in the early 2000s but staked their claim on the weed scene when they were introduced in the High Times Cannabis Cup in 2010. There are many options and they are a solution for mitigating the harsh experience on your lungs that comes from smoking marijuana flowers. They offer a purer substance that is removed from the plant matter and resulting ash for a smoother, and more powerful experience. There are two methods of extraction, solvent-based and mechanical and both produce a potent, terpene-rich product. Some solvent-based products are Shatter and Crumble. The process for both involves laying the slurry out on parchment and busting the glass-like product that is left after purging. Wax and Budder are other solvent-extracted options, the former being drier and crumblier than the latter. Diamonds and Distillate are also solvent-based concentrates, but they are further processed to create potent crystals with little terpene content. Often terpenes are added back in to balance the product and reintroduce flavor. Hash Oil is the last solvent-based product we will mention here. The end product is an oil that ranges from transparent gold to tan, to black. Live Resin, Hash, and Bubble Hash are all solventless concentrates. They are created using temperature changes and manual manipulation. They are known for retaining their robust terpene and cannabinoid profiles and delivering their far-reaching range of benefits.

Testing Kits

Testing kits are often used by medical professionals, employers, and landlords to check an individual's system for specific drugs. There are several types of tests that provide nearly instant results. There is Point of Care Testing (POCT) that involves screening urine or oral fluid. There are dipsticks, drug screening cups, and oral swabs, all of which test for either a specific drug or a panel of drugs. These tests can be purchased online and provide accurate results in only a few minutes. Although less common, there is also the ability to test drug use through hair analysis in a laboratory. This system is so sensitive it can detect use from as far back as 90 days, but it is far less convenient or immediate than purchasing a kit. There are stimulant tests like the Cocaine Testing Kit and Methamphetamine Testing Kit, as well as sedative kits such as a Fentanyl Testing Kit, Opiates Testing Kit, or MDMA Testing Kit. A Cannabinoids Testing Kit is used both for testing cannabis levels in the system of an individual, and for testing the levels of specific cannabinoids in your bud. When you are opting to use marijuana for support of one or more health conditions, it is wise to know the concentration and constitution of your herb. Home tests are available and are portable and easy to use. Simply stick a small amount of flower into the testing liquid and wait for a full and accurate report!

Vapes

Vapes have taken the cannabis world by storm. They offer a discreet way of ingesting marijuana and receiving its many benefits. A Vaporizer is easy to use and works quickly. There is no smoke and little odor, which makes it ideal for getting into your system without needing to hide out or offend your neighbors. There are three common types of vapes, including disposable, replaceable coil head, and rebuildable. The disposable ones are inexpensive and easy to find. As you become more familiar with the options, you could opt to move into the other types and build them based on your preferences. Vape Pens are one of the most popular options because they are small, cylindrical, and easy to conceal. All vapes have several components. The Atomizer is the part that transforms liquid into a mist. When the power button is hit, a coil is heated which turns oil on a wick into vapor. It heats the oil at a low temperature and then cools it before it makes it into your mouth and lungs. The oil is held in a cartridge. These can be bought prefilled, or you can find empty ones to refill yourself. Vape Oil is the last piece of the puzzle. A CO2 extraction method is used to create a concentrated oil from the cannabis plant. This oil is exceptionally potent and often odorless, so it is difficult to detect. You can find some that are rich in THC or CBD heavy depending on your needs.

Seed Starts

Once you have bought your premium seeds from Weed Seeds, you can start to think about the Germination technique you wish to employ. Buying from a reputable company like us gives you the added assurance and comfort of exceptional quality seeds that are guaranteed to flourish without too much fuss. There are several great ways to help your plant sprout, including the tried and true paper towel technique. This is a perfect option for those on a budget, as it can be done for free using a few items that are commonly found around the home. As the name suggests, paper towels are a must! Beyond that, a couple of dinner plates are all you need to create a perfect moisture dome to bust your seeds. Place your seeds out evenly between the paper towels after you wet them and then set the package inside the two plates set face to face. The humidity levels are ideal for a burgeoning seedling, and you will see results in a short 24 to 48 hours. There are also tools you can purchase if you prefer. Soil cubes are popular, as they make it easy to transplant the fresh growth into their forever home. Simply press your seed into the dampened cube and plant the whole unit once your seed sprouts. Germination stations are another option. These allow for lab-quality moisture regulation if you feel like nerding out on the nitty-gritty details. While not necessary, it does allow for more precise manipulation of your grow space!

Clones

An easy and inexpensive way to propagate your favorite marijuana plants is to clone them. Cutting clones is an easy process that involves nothing but your parent plant and a pair of sharp scissors or a razor. If you have a plant that is showing awesome growth patterns, high yields, and potent, aromatic, and flavorful buds, you can take a small clipping and clone the impressive mother plant. Cloning cannabis is done by choosing a spot about 5 to 8 inches below where new branching is happening on the chosen plant. By scraping or splitting the bottom of your cut, you create more surface area to develop roots. Placing this striated end in water and cutting off the excess leaves and nodes from the cutting, will allow it to focus its energy on developing a complex root system to later be nourished by soil or hydroponic systems. A popular tool for this process is an aeroponic cloner. You can buy kits that have a tent, grow light and hanger, duct fan, rooting gel, and water conditioners. With this system, the roots are held in a soilless medium and sprayed with a nutrient-dense water solution. This generates healthy clones for you to later nourish into mature plants. The only limit of cloning is that you will end up with a bunch of the same plant, so if you are looking for a little variety, you might prefer to browse through our extensive catalog and stock up on a few favorites! 

Headshop Merchandise

There are not a lot of items you need to enjoy your cannabis product, but there are some fun tools to explore if you are keen to expand your experience. Headshops, or dispensaries, often sell these items and have a variety of aesthetically pleasing options to meet your preferences. Items like Grinders to bust up your weed without getting your fingers covered in resin, Rolling Papers to contain this freshly separated bud, and Lighters to bring a flame to your joint, are things that all marijuana users will want on hand. Once you have the basics, you can then start to consider buying things like Pipes and Bongs to enhance your toking experience. There are wood, ceramic, metal Water Cooled Pipes, and Glass Pipes which can be selected based on budget and preference. They all hold Screens that help keep some of the ash and plant matter from getting into your mouth and lungs, providing a cleaner smoking experience. Bongs take this one step further, as the smoke is purified by water and then cooled to create a smoother experience. Bongs are composed of things like Dab Rigs and Down Pipes, both of which need to sometimes be replaced and can be purchased through virtual and physical shops. The best way to ignite the rings is with Torches that run on Butane. Pipes are a little less expensive than bongs and might be a great place to start as you delve into the wonders of the weed scene!

Kratom

Mitragyna speciosa, also known as Kratom, is another powerful healing plant that is sweeping the nation. It is a tropical evergreen tree that originates in South East Asia and is native to Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Papua New Guinea. This is a tree that falls under the classification of the Rubiaceae family alongside other infamous plants like coffee and gardenia. You can find three strains with slightly different traits. The Borneo Reserve is the traditional red vein strain that has its roots in mainland Borneo. The Bali Reserve is another red vein strain from Bali that grows quickly and has bigger than average leaves. These are easy to find, in part due to their unique physical attributes and the unique aroma they emit. The third is the most sought-after. It is a unique green vein plant from Malaysia called Enhanced Malay. They all have the same active ingredients, mitragynine, and 7-hydroxymitragynine, and induce similar effects. Kratom effects are very diverse depending on the dose. A low dose creates a stimulating high that includes increased alertness, chattiness, and a boost in physical energy, while a high dose creates a high comparable to that from Opiate use. There are various ways you can use this product, including Kratom tea and Kratom capsules. As this tree creates a similar experience to an opioid, one of its primary applications is in the use of treatment of opiate withdrawal. However, it has also shown promising effects in the support of chronic pain conditions and fatigue.

Psilocybin Mushrooms

Magic Mushrooms are mushrooms that contain the active ingredient of psilocybin. This is a hallucinogenic compound that has the power to alter the state of consciousness. It can make you see, hear or feel things that are not there, comparable to drugs like LSD. Effects could include heightened emotions or senses, mental or emotional clarity, and altered sensory perception. This healing tool has been used for thousands of years, in various contexts, and there are about 200 different species. The most common type of Shrooms sold in the United States is Psilocybe Semilanceata. You can consume them by eating them raw or cooked, drying them, and grinding them up to make tea, to fill capsules, or to press into tablets. The strength can vary, but normally it takes between 15 and 45 minutes to kick in and the effects will last between 4 and 6 hours. While these are not legal throughout the country, they have been decriminalized in Denver, Colorado, and Oakland, California. Research is being done around the world to explore the benefits of the use of Psybin Mushrooms on common health conditions, so we anticipate it only a matter of time before widespread acceptance and use is as prevalent as with cannabis consumption. What makes these so magical for the medical community? Well, some studies show the potential of mushrooms in the treatment of anxiety, depression, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. There is also evidence that psilocybin could be a huge support in the withdrawal from problematic substance abuse.
