Los Angeles Chocolate

OK, so Alternative Solutions has moved on from growing many of their most popular strains (UK Cheese, Medijuana, Blueberry Headband, Green Love Potion, Grapefruit Krush etc...) but the very welcome addition of LA Chocolate (LA Confidential X Chocolope) to their menu definitely helps to fill this void! I can confidently say that this is one of the best I've had from them so far, with it's chocolaty flavor and long-lasting high, which is an excellent hybrid of both indica and sativa traits. An all-around great strain and very hard to get sick of. Great job by Alternative Solutions!

Pure Lemon

A pure sativa strain, which I usually am not that into, but this Lemon Skunk is a real treat; every time I take a hit I get the vivid sensation of having a fresh lemon inside my mouth. Good for energy but if you are looking for the addition of a body high, I would opt for another strain such as Lemon Cookies, which clearly seems to be more indica leaning. Lemon Skunk is also not the strongest of strains, but connoisseurs will appreciate its grow quality and taste, especially fans of Skunk #1 and it's other phenotypes (Pure Skunk, UK Cheese, etc.). Another great job by District Growers.

Thank you to Apelles for growing this strain; it's great to see growers giving patients what they want!

The Terror in the Night

It looks like District Growers discontinued their Big Medusa strain, but after trying this Night Terror OG (Blue Dream x Rare Dankness #1), I can sort of see why. Functionally speaking, this performs like a better version of the Big Medusa; a mellow, hybrid high, useful during day or night. If you like indica-dominant hybrids or are a Blue Dream fan, give Night Terror OG a try.

A great night time strain, relaxing mentally and physically. It's also pretty strong, usually a "one-hit quit" for me. Highly recommended!

Conveniently located right in the middle of downtown DC, Herbal Alternatives offers an excellent combination of affordability, availability, and selection that really works for me as a patient. They stock several strains and concentrates from all five DC cultivators, so they always have a lot to choose from! Their flowers are never pre-packaged, so customers always have the opportunity to see them fresh from the jar before purchasing, which also means they are weighed and packaged in front of the customer at the time of purchase to ensure complete satisfaction. Their prices are always the same as or better than the other DC dispensaries and their entire menu is posted online and updated frequently. They also have a terrific selection of high-quality glass pipes, bubblers, and bongs that is actually more diverse and less expensive than most local “head shops.” The staff is super friendly, helpful, and professional; they really go the extra mile to make their patients happy at this dispensary!

The sweet, sugary taste is actually reminiscent of classic bubble gum flavor; it reminds me of Bazooka Joe. As you can probably imagine, this is a terrific choice for vaporizing. Most of the criticism I have seen of this strain is unwarranted, especially considering that Capital City sells it for a lower cost than most of their other strains. I’ve also noticed that it doesn’t last long at all when they get it in, so I’m definitely not the only Bubble Gum fan.

I quite like this sativa, particularly for a mild high in the afternoon. The “CBD high” is more clear-headed; you feel a nice, relaxed buzz but can accomplish many tasks with the help of this stuff. Useful for mild pain relief, especially in the eyes and forehead. All that said, I enjoyed this strain and would prefer to utilize it when preparing for a task where concentration will be required.

OG Bong

Glass enthusiasts like myself tend to stick their noses up at acrylic bongs, but this one has sort of made me a believer. Sure, nothing is better than hitting out of clean glass, but most glass bongs are not so easy to keep clean, especially modern ones with smoke percolators, multiple water chambers, ice trays, and “ash catcher” type bowls that are also designed to hold water. And if you’re like me, you’ve probably broken way too many of the glass bongs you owned and just want something simple and durable. Well here it is! As soon as I took a rip out of this thing, I had a flashback to my very first bong in college; not just because it’s about the same shape and size, but more importantly, the way I could get a big, smooth hit every time. How I used to treasure smoking countless bowls out of that thing, and this bong brought me back to that feeling. Fun to use, easy to clean, nearly impossible to break, and super cheap. All in all, not a bad purchase.

Also, a note about cleaning: NEVER clean your acrylic bong with rubbing alcohol, the chemical reaction of the alcohol and plastic will not only ruin the bong cosmetically, but it will also make it dangerous to smoke out of! Instead, use warm water and dish soap. You can, however, safely clean out the metal bowl with a pipe cleaner dipped in rubbing alcohol. Note that the dome section of the pull-out bowl conveniently twists off so you can clean the pieces separately.

The Ultimate Glass Cleaning Solution

To be honest, I’ve found that it’s possible to clean 100% of the resin out of most smaller glass pieces using pipe cleaners (you may need a paper clip to reach certain areas; but be careful not to scratch the glass), rubbing alcohol, and occasionally a bit of salt. I also try to purchase pieces that are easy-to-clean so I can continue to enjoy them to their fullest. But if you are working with something difficult to clean, whether it be an irregular shape, hard-to-reach spots, or just really old resin that’s not coming out, this is the stuff you need. It’s pricey but totally worth it in certain situations. Keep in mind that you can re-use the same liquid several times and many users will pour it right back into the bottle after they’re done. If you’re looking for the most powerful liquid to soak your glass pieces in, accept no substitutes.

Crucial Tool for Cleaning Glass

These are the prickly kind that are perfect for cleaning glass pieces. Dip them in rubbing alcohol and they can scrub out just about any resin buildup. Bend and fold them to reach just about any spot; practice makes perfect. The assortment of colors is neat, although I generally prefer the lighter ones because it's easier to see when they’re dirty. Usually a comparable bundle of pipe cleaners costs at least $5 at a head shop, so this is definitely a great deal!

It's a nice bonus that these cartridges are identical in appearance to the nicotine ones they sell in 7-11 and there's really no smell when you vaporize either, so they're a pretty good option when discretion is preferred.

P.S.C. Members have the option of ordering ahead online, which is handy if you want to reserve something early or you just want to ensure that you can skip the line when you arrive. I have tried this and it works great!

Famous Jack

Another old-school Dutch strain, this bright green sativa has a piney, woody taste that is sure to put a smile on your face every time. A great pick-me-up strain in the morning; gives you immediate mental clarity and energy. It’s a very popular strain with patients and Capital City does a great job keeping it in-stock regularly. It’s also worth knowing that it won first overall at the 1994 High Times Cannabis Cup, a competition renowned by stoners internationally. Thank you to Capital City Cultivation for dedicating themselves to growing this tremendous stuff!

Saturn Pipe

Blastoff to Saturn

I love this bowl, it’s the nicest and best I own. Yes it’s a bit pricey, but you’ll know it’s completely worth it as soon as you take your first rip and suddenly, you're in outer space! Honestly, smoking a bowl out of elite level glass like this not only makes the weed taste better, but it also somehow seems to get you even higher than smoking the same bowl out of cheaper glass. Not sure of the science behind that, but I've been smoking weed out of glass pipes and bongs long enough to know it's true. It's also easy to see inside and clean, which is important for longevity. In summary, this is an excellent large spoon bowl for serious glass lovers; exactly the kind of quality bowl you should be enjoying your fresh dispensary flowers out of. Great job by Chameleon Glass!

Dispensary Review:

Capital City Care

A Wonderful Place

The staff is very committed and caring; I was on a first-name basis with them after only a few visits. The customer service is excellent; they will work with customers over the phone, e-mail, and in-person to ensure they are completely satisfied. Their supply is pretty unique is contrast to the other DC dispensaries; although they do sometimes get flowers from Holistic Remedies, District Growers, and Abatin Wellness, their regular flow of Capital City Cultivation strains is usually the core of their inventory. Let me tell you, all eight of those C.C.C. strains (Blue Dream, Master Kush, Jack Herer, S.A.G.E., Fire OG, Bubble Gum, Blueberry Haze, and Silver Kush) are fantastic, particularly the last two! It’s also worth noting they always have flowers, and usually offer at least four strains at a time. Their P.S.C. program has nice perks like a free monthly gram and pre-ordering online. Also, their free “Punch and Save” cards, which reward patients with $5 store credit for every $100 they spend, are a great deal! The location seems to be very popular, you can take the metro (red line, NoMa), bus (80), and for many DC residents (myself included); it’s within walking distance! There are also bike racks on both sides of North Capitol Street near the P Street intersection, which I find to be extremely handy. All in all, it’s hard to go wrong with a dispensary of this quality so I highly recommend Capital City Care!

Fire!

Indica-dominant hybrid with a strong, spicy taste; reminds me of eating those red fireball candies as a little kid. This stuff is really nice in the evening, after a hard day’s work. This is one of the most popular strains Capital City offers, so don’t expect it to last very long when they get it in!

Awesome Grinder

This is the nicest, sharpest, and most durable grinder I've ever owned or even used; great buy! It allows me to break up the "flowers" without getting my fingers all sticky and over time a lot of keif will build up in the chamber at the bottom. I use mine every day and highly recommend it!

Master Tincture

One of my favorite tinctures manufactured by Holistic Remedies; great mellow high that is particularly nice for relaxing at night. I also think it's one of the better tasting tinctures they've made. The high is a much more of an "edible" high than smoking: slow onset but very intense and long-lasting. I would recommend mixing several drops into your coffee, tea, juice, or even a simple glass of hot water to help with the strong taste. You could also put it inside a peanut butter sandwich or on top of an ice cream sundae; be creative! Marijuana tincture is also handy for when you're sick and want to avoid smoking. Try adding it to warm soup or tea next time you have a cold. My constructive criticism for Holistic Remedies would be their choice of grain alcohol to extract the THC; in the future I would suggest they try using vegetable glycerin instead, as it will taste much better and provide a cleaner high without the influence of alcohol.

Don't Forget about the Master!

This fine Indica strain of Dutch origin will take you straight to the coffee shop in Amsterdam with every toke. MK is indeed one of my all-time favorite strains, providing an immediately recognizable taste, sweet yet subtle. It mixes well with any other strain by adding potency without altering the taste; you could say Master Kush is like the Vodka of weed. As soon as you take a hit of this stuff, you will feel it working throughout your whole body! They say this is a great night time strain, which it is, especially if you need help getting to sleep; but for connoisseurs like myself, the Master is a welcome companion any time. Excellent work by Capital City Cultivation!
