I’ve been smoking weed since I was 15.  I’m 27 now.  I’m from Berkeley, CA where the trees are aplenty.  However if you want consistent quality and selection, I had heard about medical dispensaries slowly but surely opening up all around some years ago.  Being the sort of wanderer that I am, I never dished out the money to have the license to buy “medical”.  It just always seemed unnecessary seeing as there were so many dealers so ready to sell me that chronic at dirt cheap prices.  Two for $10, or eighths for $30-$40 of really nice bud.

After saving up some money I decided it was time to step into the world of pot dispensaries.  I found a cheap weed prescribing doctor in Oakland and headed down there to explain a few “conditions” that I had and why I needed pot legally and constantly for medical purposes.

I was unlucky.  This particular doctor was something like a nazi.  No bueno.  He said I needed official documentation of some conditions and only prescribed me for 3 months, not a year… said I would need to come back with more evidence of medical conditions.

Alright, that’s fine.  I get to try this thing out.  First stop: Cannabis Buyer’s Club of Berkeley.

I had heard they used to have a hash bar inside, but I guess they don’t allow smoking of medical marijuana inside the club any more.  No problem.  I step up to the counter and they have a big screen TV on the wall up high with a huge list of products.  Cheap weed to top shelf, ranging from $20 an eighth all the way up to $60.

They had a wide selection of hashish and keef mixes.  Now you have to be careful with these things because the cops will still charge you with a felony possession and mess with you even if you have medical documentation.  The judge usually throws it out but the cops aren’t required to recognize your documentation for concentrated prepared cannabis products.  I can go into that story in another article about how I was actually arrested for buying keef and hash in Berkeley and having my car searched by the LAPD and arrested, so be careful if you are so lucky to have these things.

They had a wide assortment of edibles and even drinks like apple cider (of course yes it got you very high).  Pretty much anything you wanted they had.

I had plenty of money, at least in my eyes, and I wound up going all out.  I would buy top shelf weed, keef, and hash, mix it all together constantly.  I couldn’t go without keef on my top shelf – and mixing in the hash all the merrier.  It was a match made in heaven.

My medical card expired after my experience in LA with the police and the keef… since then I’ve cut down some but I am really looking forward to doing more exploring of clubs.

I found an amazing site, which listed all of the medical weed dealers in my area. There are tons and tons and tons of delivery services as well as dispensaries.  The delivery services often times you can get kick downs and better prices than dispensaries straight to your door!

It’s a pothead’s dream and thank god I live in the beautiful state of sunny California.  I know Washington and Colorado have followed suit, and Nevada also does medical.  I really hope more of the states are able to pass laws that allow people to smoke and grow in peace.  I don’t think I need to go into more about why than just – LEGALIZE IT!
