Lavender Jones is quickly becoming the most popular “Lavender” strain in Colorado, lining shelves at chain dispensaries and independent shops alike. But how could it miss with a name like that? Lavender Jones sounds like a smooth-talkin’ player swaggering down Colfax with a bulge in his pants and a smile that makes the ladies swoon — and that’s exactly how I feel after blazing it.
Our Stoner answers questions about edibles — whether they’ll show up in a drug test and whether you can sell edibles in another state with legal marijuana.
Bred with Blueberry and Skunk genetics (the exact phenotype of each is up for debate), Skunkberry is an indica-leaning hybrid slowly gaining steam in dispensaries.
Our Stoner comes to the aid of two would-be go-gooders, advising how to ship pot out of state and what kind of marijuana would be good for a young adult with stomach pains.
The Stoner answers questions about why Colorado dispensaries scan IDs.
A very popular strain on its own, Girl Scout Coookies is becoming just as beloved for its offspring as it is for itself — if not more. GSC’s kids include Gelato, Platinum GSC, Sherbet and Thin Mints, a couple of which are personal favorites. But Exotic Genetix out of Washington state might’ve created the strongest colt of all with its thunderous Cookies and Cream.
Welcome to the Mile High City: We almost crashed our car when we spotted those Weedmaps messages on the side of the Denver Performing Arts Complex, where you usually see ads for ballets, symphonies, touring Broadway shows. Can the City of Denver accept advertisements for marijuana?
When you walk into a dispensary and ask a budtender to recommend a strain, you’re basically asking this: “What is your strongest?” Although the recommended strains will vary from shop to shop, many budtenders will pull out their version of the THC titan known as Ghost Train Haze. Ghost Train…
Can you have a pot party at your workplace? In your company’s parking lot? Our Stoner has the answers.
A medical patient n probation for a DWAI (beer) wants to know if he can use marijuana. Our stoner has the answer.
I was introduced to Pineapple Express as a movie, not a strain (that’s how young I am). Not one to buy into commercial hype, I stayed away from the strain in my early years of toking, always thinking it was a ploy to sell some less-than-stellar herb. But nearly nine years after the stoner-action flick came out, I thought it was safe to give it a try.
Our Stoner gets the definitive answer on how many pot plants are allowed in Denver.
Attaching the word “grape” to a strain is a bold move. Not only does it typecast the strain’s effects as heavy and tiring, but it also creates stiff expectations for smell, looks and flavor. If the strain doesn’t smell like grapes, taste like Fanta and have deep streaks of purple, then it’s basically Crystal Pepsi to most consumers. But then there’s Grape God Bud!
Dear Stoner: I always feel so bad for dogs when people blow smoke in their faces. I can tell they don’t like it. Are they getting high, or is it just irritating them? Money Monet Dear Monet: Both — but if I had to pick one, I’d say the dog…
Sage is a very versatile strain, perfect for smoking while listening to Anderson .Paak.
Dear Stoner: What is the number of plants one can cultivate with a medical marijuana card? I’ve heard you can have up to 75 if you’re a caregiver, but I’ve also heard Colorado will be setting a state maximum of twelve. Pete Dear Pete: Current medical marijuana caregivers can actually…
Superheroes are all the rage these days. But before Hollywood started cashing in on characters that most of us never knew existed, the weed world was already starting the party, with strains like Kryptonite, Harlequin and Thor’s Hammer. Yet the most popular superhero strain is actually named after a skinny alter ego: Bruce Banner. Like the Incredible Hulk he morphs into when angry, Bruce Banner’s namesake strain comes in multiple forms and can obliterate a man’s face with one punch.
Our Stoner answers questions about organic marijuana and hash-oil refills.
Marijuana and hip-hop have a long and harmonious relationship, so much so that the names of most hybrid strains sound like rap-song titles. If I told you I was listening to “Girl Scout Cookies” by OG Kush featuring Durban Poison or “The Truth” by SFV OG featuring Chemdawg, you’d probably think…
Why has dispensary service been so slow in Colorado lately? Our Stoner has the answer.
Who doesn’t like the word “juicy”? Besides being the name of one of Biggie’s most recognizable songs, almost everything sounds better when described as “juicy.” Fruits, steaks, derrieres, bits of information — they’re all more desirable when juicy. Just hearing the word makes me imagine something ripe and refreshing. Something like Strawberry Banana — the cannabis strain, not the smoothie.
Is it better to roll joints inside out? And pot cause a hangover? Our Stoner answers more burning questions.
