Scenario Guide
Need to sit and work? Gary Payton. Need to get moving? Sour Diesel.
Our Jamaica Ave budtenders have sold both of these strains to hundreds of customers since February 2024. The pattern: most first-time buyers pick the more familiar name; most returning customers pick by terpene. If you're still building your cannabis palette, default to the Silk Road pick above. If you're a returning customer with a preference for limonene or myrcene already, match the terpene row in the table.
