Dear Stoner: Some of the dispensaries I go to make me use a locked bag so it’s “childproof” when I leave, but others just let me walk out with a paper bag full of pot. What gives? Kenny Dear Kenny: Ever notice a pattern in the packaging your buds come…
Euflora opened its first location on the 16th Street Mall, which made it a hot spot for tourists, but not local potheads, who complained about the hot prices. Euflora now has two stores open in Aurora, and both see a steady stream of traffic. Curious to see if these suburban…
Dear Stoner: I’ve had a vaporizer for almost a year now and have a buttload of golden-brown vaped weed saved up. Is there anything I can do with it, or have I been wasting my energy? Nicholas Dear Nicholas: If your vaporizer isn’t turning your flower black, it might eventually…
With a thirty-day guarantee on its clones and thirty-plus to choose from, La Conte’s Clone Bar and Dispensary on Washington Street has become a go-to for some basement growers.

Before marijuana critic William Breathes bid farewell to the Westword staff a few days ago, he gave me one piece of advice: “Go to Trenchtown,” he said. “You won’t be disappointed.” I wish I could afford a plane ticket to the famous Jamaican neighborhood that the late Bob Marley called home,…
When I dropped by the Clinic Colorado last summer, I couldn’t afford anything on the shelves. The shop, located at 3888 East Mexico Avenue, was selling eighths for more than $70 after tax on the recreational side. I’d never paid that much for chronic as a pasty tourist in Florida…
Last week, in honor of 4/20, Good Chemistry was offering 42 percent off any of its flower. The penny pincher in me simply couldn’t resist the lure of discount pot, so I stopped by the new Aurora location, at 16840 East Iliff Avenue, to see if Good Chemistry and good…
Walking up to the Denver Mart on 4/20 is exhilarating for a High Times Cannabis Cup virgin. You’ve heard the stories and seen the pictures, and now you’re ready to witness the madness (and probably partake in it). Over 500 marijuana business and thousands of people made the pilgrimage to…
