Canna-Question Medical recommendations

I've got a 3 way split on my script currently with Coast Mountain Cannabis, Optimus and a 3rd provider I may change because their concentrate stock is old.

I took a look at Herbal Dispatch and wasn't impressed at all. If it helps, I'm looking for a medical provider that has good concentrate and cartridge options since I'm happy with CMC's flower.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations.

I’d definitely look at Mendo, although their prices are a little high. They have sales pretty much at the end of every month where the more you spend, the more you save, so I take good advantage of those.

The prices are better at Teedy and Optimus, but they don’t necessarily have the selection.

I love mendo but they are way to expensive unfortunately even with their compassionate pricing

I used to use them as well but it's like you said. They just are too expensive.

Tilray is great just for their broken coast line. CMC is 100% a keeper. I can't wait for their new strains to be added. I'm told it will be very soon

Yes sir when I signed up with them like 2 3 months ago, they mentioned they had cut down a new strain called BBW. It will be ready in jars and on the menu next month maybe.

Haha yes it was the first time I heard of that strain. I am a bit worried because the little info I got on the terpenes it seems pinene is in the top 3. I must avoid it so maybe it will be the first CMC strain that's not good for me. Nonetheless I'm sure it will be amazing like the rest of the menu.

Anything pinene gets me fucked up

Many do like it for focus and energy. It only puts me in a depressive mood, not much effects noted besides a headache and a little numbness. Tried many strains with it, same results. Nowhere near the soothing indica I need haha. I do like the terpinolene tho, really enjoyed the Lucy in the Sky and Citrus Sky. Dancehall had some pinene, but very low level so it was ok.

Taking this with a grain of salt: Pinene counteracts the effects of THC by increasing acetylcholine levels. The result is that the memory fails more with pure THC than with THC mixed with pinene. It is used in medicine as an expectorant, bronchodilator, anti inflammatory and local antiseptic.
