Anyone else sick of being directed to a kiosk instead of talking to a real human being?

Hi, Ohio MJ fam!

I’ve been noticing an increase of kiosks at dispensaries to place orders. I totally understand their function for folks who are on the go and know what they want.

However, I’m finding it increasingly more and more difficult to talk to an actual budtender for product recommendations and general cannabis advice.

For me, this human interaction is an essential part of the experience and it seems like dispensaries are trying to phase it out.

I dont want an AI-assist kiosk bot… I want a human who knows & understands the products, but also maybe I’m alone in this sentiment.

Anyone else experiencing this at their local dispensaries? Am I alone in disliking this shift in the industry?

THC PERCENTAGE VS TERPENE PERCENTAGE

Ive been buying the higher percentage THC flower from my dispensary and my tolerance is too high for it. I saw where some of the flower they have is up to 20% terpenes but lower percentage ( 25% ). Do I keep buying high THC percentage or change to terpene percentage?

On the Fence about DHV ?

I've had my POTV Lobo for a year now. I'll likely never go back to buying edibles or beverages. Carts/Pods and disposables on the rare occasion. In the photos, that is a "bowl" or an "oven's worth" from my Lobo. The ABV is in a 1/4 pint Mason jar, for perspective. (I'm out of bananas.) Not sure why one photo is darker, but it's the same ABV. Approx. 0.10-0.15g, depending on how much you pack in. That's a loose pack, so around 0.10g. I also get about three five-minute sessions at 355⁰F to 365⁰F, using the terps low and slow. Also, I have the glass globe stem for the Lobo. The one that comes with it is too short IMO and burns my lip. (NOTE: I have sensitive skin, so you may be fine with it.) I buy the screens elsewhere and am going to the hardware store to see if I can find the same size silicone gasket there. I tried another place online. The diameter of the gasket is right, but the thickness of the silicone will not allow the cap to seat properly.

I might use an ounce every 6 weeks now, which is freakin' awesome. Now that I know how much I use, I'm hoping to reduce that even more by getting a TinyMight 2 for the on-demand feature. I microdose, so heating it up for just a few puffs is wasteful. On demand, I suspect I can cut this pseudo-consumption by 25-50%. Kind of like the waste when rolling one and it's still burning while you're talking or whatever before taking another hit. Same with the DHV, except you only have a small amount baking.

Don't forget to save that spent cannabis for making your own edibles. It's taken a year, but I have almost a full pint jar for making and freezing cannabutter for cookies, etc. And, the whole house doesn't smell funky after decarbing since you're decarbing while vaping.

My pain is so much less and I can still function. But, if I want to sink into the couch, all I need to do is crank up the heat after I get those terps.

Hope this helps anyone new to MMJ. I wish I had not been so wrapped up in the stigma for so long. It's been a game changer for me. Still disabled, but my Quality of Life is improving. ✌️❤️🪴

Edited to fix typos. You may find more. Too tired to look further. Lol

Tom&Berry live resin disposable

I got the big-t-og strain and its very good overall, i’m very impressed with their live resin i can smell it from my pocket and it kinda has a peppery/earthy taste. for $28 otd i would definitely get this again

Wizard Spray #1 - Meigs County

First post :P Hi y’all, been smoking mostly concentrates but I decided to pick up some bud for the holiday. 3.5g for $36 otd. terpinolene is the top terpene. Enjoyed the smoke. Sharp, gassy, and SOUR.

u/Emergency_Lack6397 — 23 hours ago

R.O - Red Bird

This one is new for me haven’t seen it around so I messaged them on Instagram. They said it’s a cross of Pie Hoe and Colombian Red. It’s definitely more of a plain generic taste. The high is really nice just kind of basic. Buds are frosty af great feel and burn just lacking big time on terps. I would say 7/10. I would love to see what it’s like with a better cure. Got this one at Sunnyside Cincinnati for 48+tax. For that price not bad.

Tropsanto X Papaya

I’m mostly just getting a funky papaya on the smell. Very loud soon as you open the jar and effects are sedative for me but I’m not getting a whole lot of flavor out of it. Loving the new packaging and can’t wait to try strawmosa!

u/Charming_Weird5396 — 2 days ago

Good Green - Sunset sherbet 🔥

Got this from The Landing Cincinnati 70+tax. It’s 100% worth the price I love Sunset Sherbet. It’s been hard to find it not crossed into 3 or 4 other things so this is a nice throwback. Beautiful bud feel and soft and sticky. The smell is gassy fruity and sweet. Which holds through in taste it’s delicious gassy and sweet. I would give this a 9/10 it could be just a little more sticky and moist but still pretty good cure and dry on this one. The effects I would say are definitely relaxing but not to the point of crashing just good to chill and have fun.

The Cream Select - Certified

The Cream Select - Certified Cultivators https://www.certifiedcultivators.com/flower/p/the-cream

Strain: Cookies & Cream x (Golden Goat x (Chem Dawg x (Sour Diesel x OG Kush)))
CATEGORY: Hybrid

COA water - Unknown (wtf Certified, do better)

TOTAL THC 29.4% / d9 THC 0.37% / THCA 33.1%

PRIMARY TERPENES: , Myrcene 1.24%, a-Pinene 1.03%, Limonene 0.548%, b-Pinene 0.433%

TOTAL LABEL TERPENES 3.25%

TOTAL PINE TERPS: 1.46% 😮 (record high for me)

Harvest 11MAY2026

Bought 01JUL2026

Actual Contents Weight: 14.20g (love the 420!) 😂

COA LINK: None Provided (come on Certified, do better!)

DEAL: There are plenty of reviews on Certified The Cream, time for another. I had many of my Reddit bros tell me to get this for the pine and - because it's just so good. For months I looked but only found it in tiny-ass, over-priced, baby jars. As I recall, they were asking equivalent to $300-400/oz for The Cream. Homie ain't playing that shit, I don't care how good it is. I'll wait it out.

Well, yesterday while browsing Zips Glenway, there it was, FINALLY available - a half ozzy of the The Cream! It was $105 with the fake Zips 30% off ($150/half retail) it was $124/half OTD. WOOT! This is actually reasonable (not $400+/oz) and only a little above my cheap-ass threshold of $200/oz OTD. With tax this took it over my $200/oz max at $246/oz OTD.

They got me, too many folks raving about this flower and the declaration of pine needs to be put to the test! I love PINE, it's my favorite terp by miles!!

ODOR: I could smell this shit in the sealed bags inside my car on the ride home. LOL

Ripped the bag, I could smell it immediately without breaking the inner seal. Cracked the zip, subtle yet powerful/gassy odor, stunk-up the area quickly. Getting light whiffs of that Pinene. This is stinky as shit, the terps are >3% so I expected that. I wish they had a QR to the COA so I could see the whole terp profile. This is bullshit. It should be Ohio law! I'd like to see the full list.

The cops will smell it from behind you in line at UDF. The odor is a little different and funky from your normal Ohio Limonene mids, that may throw off some weed-sniffing Nazi's a little, but they'll probably still give you the stink eye and rolled eyes. Keep safe distances if you don't want to get busted.

I could not believe it, like a dream for me. The second primary terp: a-Pinene 1.03%. That's the holy fucking grail terp for me! This is the first time I've seen it listed in second place on any Ohio flower. However, it's not that pungent, no Christmas tree here. 😥 The best description is spicy, mildly piney, milk cream, the name is fitting! I was praying for a fresh Christmas tree but got a bowl of spicy cream. The search for the ultimate Ohio pine weed continues....

HUGE props to Certified! The terps are very strong (and they better be at this price point)!

LOOK: This is my first Certified purchase, I'm excited after the hype. These are their "Select" nugs of The Cream. BINGO - TRICHROMES out the ass, sparkling like diamonds in a goat's ass! Great looking half, nice hand trim, see pics - that's the whole thing, all 14.20g. Nice, mostly 1-1.5" nugs, a couple were near 3" but very skinny at the top - still KILLER looking. I'd like bigger buds (like 1-3 cola halves) but it's fine upper-end bud for commercial weed, nice presentation!

Almost no garbage in the bag at all too, just what broke off during handling of the package and the unfortunate loss of some trics on the bag sides, less than 0.1g. The trics are so heavy I probably could have scraped together a keef bong hit from the droppings - love that "bonus hit". 😎

WOW! The crystallization of the buds is top-notch, 100% on par with Farkas. The first time I've given any Ohio commercial weed that accolade! AWESOME JOB CERTIFIED! I'm sorry it took so long to get here but I ain't paying insane $$$ for weed.

I checked with AI and it confirmed that Farkas rents out the Tric Fairy to Certified. Or maybe AI is wrong and Certified has the Tric Fairy's sister? We'll put that to the test with a few more stains in the future! The buds were extremely consistent in look, most flower has some outlier buds, not here, it all looks the same.

This is an attractive bag and a win in the looks department across the board. I see why they want $300-$400/oz. Too bad I can't smoke looks, it's a plus but I ain't smoking 'em so fuck that price. I really felt that way about Meigs Strawberry Guava, see my review.

https://www.reddit.com/r/OhioMJCommunity/comments/1qz3rjb/strawberry_guava_meigs/

NUGS: About as good as you can get in commercial cannabis. Great feel, slightly dry outside crust with a squishy, very moist interior. All of the buds were very nice, no MT, no bullshit, no Ohio-mids, rock nugs here. This is nice quality for commercial weed but the nugs could have been bigger. Decent assortment and above average for a half of Ohio commercial weed. BRAVO!

CURE/MOISTURE: No COA - BOOOOO!!! This weed feels like 12-14% moisture to me as a wild ass guess. It's not dry in the slightest and tends to rip apart into gooey balls of joy rather than break-up. The cure is moist AF, perfectly executed cannabis, crumble? - impossible with The Cream. If anything, it could dry a bit more! The hardest part is getting it off your fingers - it's sticky AF. Press a bud against a wall and it'll be there a year later.

This stuff is next level gooey! Possibly the gummiest, gooeyest flower I've seen in the Ohio program. I would NOT put this into a grinder, it's too wet and gooey, seems like you're hurting it by doing that - some flower is best enjoyed with minimal handling, this is one of those IMO. Crack off a chunk and apply copious amounts of flame. Besides, you'd need a pair of vice grips to even twist that grinder, it's that sticky!

TASTE: Interesting - no pine tree for sure but the pine is there. But it's way more subtle than I'm ultimately looking for. I'm searching for the flower that's like plucking a pine come right from Mother Nature, wrapping a paper around it and going to town with my Bic. I have not seen that ultra-pine weed in well over a decade, maybe two.

My first impression is this is very close in taste to some of the HQ Indiana BM weed I was smoking for decades. Brought back some memories! I miss that weed but Ohio weed is cheaper and easier to get, so that's how I roll these days. At least I found a substitute for a long lost flavor profile I love. It has an "old school" taste, HUGE plus!

My pallet first detected some pine on the inhale but it a bit diminished a bit on the exhale. Still - Houston, WE HAVE PINE. That said - Absolutely unique and delicious weed! This is what I'm paying for - the flavor is GREAT! It's very pleasant tasting with ZERO greenhouse/chlorophyll/fertilizer or other off tastes. Exceptionally clean tasting as I would expect at this price point. Just one day in and I love this strain for the flavor! WIN FOR CERTIFIED, very enjoyable smoke!

FIRST HITS SUMMARY: HARSH LEVEL 0.5, very smooth smoke, as smooth as most of the Farkas strains. That's on my 0-4 scale with 4 being like hemp rope and Farkas typically running a 0.0 to 1.5. Very easy to smoke, I smoked a bowl and barely coughed, easy on the lungs bonus points. A testament to careful growing and curing here!

One hit buzz weed, no problem for when you just want a tinge of a buzz. It's 30% THC, one or two will do you a lot of justice and allow you to be human still. Time for a bit more - ripped off the very tip of the nicest, longest bud and put it intact into my wood pipe.

I was standing-up on my first bowl hit and damn near fell over from the first hit headrush. All those trics and resin burning off was like taking a hit of fucking concentrate. Shit, had to sit down to finish my small bowl (5-6 hits by myself). ZING! This shit is a fucking SLEDGEHAMMER. It felt like Thor came down and smashed my cranium with a giant weed hammer. GOOD SHIT

UPDATE: Buzz is intense AF after smoking a couple g's by myself. Scrambles the brain, can making things like driving difficult. Don't plan on doing shit if you're smoking The Cream. NOT recommended for those with anxiety, tends to cause racing thoughts. I've always thought Pinene did that but this terp combo- fuck, sleeping is difficult cause you keep thinking up shit. lol The Myrcene/Pinene combo works powerfully on the brain lending to an intense mind buzz.

BOTTOM LINE: TOP OF THE OHIO MARKET COMMERCIAL WEED! 

It has all the attributes one would expect for $245/oz pot and then some. It looks good, it tastes good, smokes smooth and packs a monster, couch-locking buzz. This is a top-notch commercial product no doubt and better than most of the top commercial flower. KUDOS to Certified for an amazing strain and execution! All the folks raving about The Cream are justified and I'm on the bandwagon with them!

That said, like Klutch, I gotta bitch about the price. It's expensive AF! Farkas and Neighborgoods are hitting homeruns for under $200/oz. IMO, this strain beats many of those out, I'll give Certified that, but the best commercial Ohio weed should be consumer capped at $200/oz. There is just too much competition for them to fight it forever. Especially now that they can deduct business expenses.

Overall, a HOMERUN for Certified!  This is possibly the most potent Ohio commercial weed I've smoked. It'll knock you clean on your ass my friends. I will certainly buy this strain when the halves for $105 are around again! I'm glad I bought an ozzy, I had a feeling it'd be a hit and it didn't disappoint! Get it before it's gone or we're back to those baby-ass, ripoff jars. Top-notch product!

Check back later, I always update my reviews with fresh impressions as I smoke more! Keep on smoking and posting my friends! 😎

Looking for a good sativa

It’s been a little while since i’ve got some bud from ohio dispensary’s. I would typically go after Galenas and Woodward but after seeing a lot of posts I am leaning towards giving farkas farms and certified a try. Any suggestions on good sativa/hybrids from them? Something that won’t make me tired. Some of my favorite strains would be super lemon haze, blue dream, first brunch, northern frostberry, grapehead. Anything similar to those should be great

Pickup Reviews (Rosin + Resin

Concentrates

1: Klutch - Pacific Cool Full Spec Live Rosin:

Finally got around to trying this one. Nice Sativa with great energy and buzz without the raciness I was worried about.

2: The Standard - RK Cookies Live Badder:

This stuff is wet and good. A nice Indica GMO Cross. Giving me the effects that I love. I’m impressed by The Standards concentrate game once again.

3: Klutch - Ice Cream Cake Full Spec Rosin:

This is fine. I think I enjoy the flower and Live Resin version better though.

4: POW - Gelato Full Spec Live Rosin: The first time I tried this it made popping sounds in my Proxy. And there was no condensation in the jar. Also it looks like poo. Effects were mid. I had another strain of theirs and it was OK. So gave them another shot. Not sure I’ll be going back.

Vapes

1: KCG - Garlic Juice Live Resin:

This is my first time trying this brand of Live Resin. I’ve had their Rosin version of Garlic Juice so have this a go. I’m glad I tried it. Great flavor and effects.

2: Buckeye - Lemon Dosi Live Resin:

I grabbed 2 of these on sale for $26 each. I’ve had their version cart version before. I nice fresh flavor and great day or night effects. All around one of my go to strains if I need something portable.

Apple and banana-MF

Apple's and bananas by MF

Modern flowers apples and bananas 29% THC ran me 106$

The smell is so so funky but so sweet at the same time, I personally haven't had anything like this before smells so good

The buds are super super sticky also and I was surprised with the size of the nugs, they are also kinda moist definitely not dry at all but not too moist either

The taste I can't really describe I would say kinda fruity? But not like organe tangy fruity like maybe an apple fruity? its an enjoyable taste nothing from it turns me off

and the effects are super nice , i smoke everyday all day and im fucking high right now man 😂 im feeling pretty couch locked but not lazy im like couch locked but feeling productive at the same time, I just really don't wanna move my legs.

Anyway this is my first time buying from Modern flower and I will say I'm gonna be coming back very soon. Compared to the last stuff I got from Woodward which was their permanent marker , this is superior in my opinion

u/Wild-Toe-1321 — 4 days ago

Certified fans - Shady Lemons or Strawberry Lemonade?

I can get a 1/2 of either strain for $90 but my first Certified purchase was a big disappointment so I want to choose carefully with my next. Does anybody have reviews of either strain?
