First Time Going To A Cannabis Dispensary? 4 Tips To Help You Plan Your Trip

If you're just getting started in the cannabis world, you may need help for your first trip to the dispensary. One thing you need to know is that the budtender is there to help. But, they can't help if they don't know what you need. That's where a bit of preparation comes in handy. You don't need to be an expert on your first trip to the dispensary. It does help if you have some sense of what's expected though. Here are four tips that will help you get the most from your first trip to the dispensary. 

Have a Price Point

If this is your first experience in a cannabis dispensary, have a budget in mind. Before you head out, know what you can afford to spend. Once you get to the dispensary, let your budtender know what your limit is for the day. That way, your budtender will know how much you can afford. In most cases, the budtender won't offer suggestions until they know your price point. Knowing your price point ensures they won't make suggestions that are outside your price range. 

Check for Freshness

When it comes to choosing the best cannabis, you want to focus on freshness. You don't want cannabis that's been locked away in a container for a few weeks. You can definitely taste the age when you get stale cannabis. Luckily, you can avoid stale cannabis. All you need to do is ask your budtender for their freshest selections. 

Go for the Aroma

If you think cannabis all smells the same, you've never spent time in a dispensary before. Every strain of cannabis has its own unique aroma. Before you make your selection, test the aromas. You'll find a variety of aromas in the dispensary. The variety lets you choose a strain that is infused with your favorite scents. For instance, you'll find cannabis infused with the aroma of everything from floral to citrus. 

Know Your Needs

If you're visiting a medical cannabis dispensary, know your needs. Cannabis can be used for many medical conditions. But, you need to choose the right strain. When you visit the dispensary, let your budtender know what you need your cannabis to do for you. For instance, you may need a strain that can help you get to sleep. Or, you may need one that can alleviate pain. The more information you give your budtender, the better they can help you choose the cannabis that's right for your needs.
