Understanding Cannabis Flower Basics

When shopping for premium cannabis flower, consider these key factors:

• Aroma Profile
The scent of your chosen flower can indicate its effects and freshness. Fresh cannabis should have a distinct, pleasant aroma without any musty undertones.

• Visual Appearance
Quality flower should display vibrant colors and visible trichomes (crystalline structures). Avoid products showing signs of mold or excessive dryness.

• Desired Effects
Different strains offer various experiences. Our knowledgeable staff can help guide you toward products matching your desired outcomes.
