Kush 21 – Burien’s 1st Pot Shop

December 21, 2016 By Manic Conrad

Background

Behind this door sits a world of pure wonderment!

Sitting about 5 minutes away from SeaTac Airport in Burien, Kush 21 may be the most convenient recreational marijuana retail shop for travelers looking to experience all the joys legal cannabis can offer. The shop itself sits in a strip mall, which is nice because there is ample free off street parking available to customers.

First Impressions

The first thing customers notice after having their ID checked and walking into the shop is the huge amount of selection they offer. From the outside, the space looks much more cramped than it actually is. Once inside, I was able to walk around the expansive facility and take in all of the options in wonder.

Employees were helpful and friendly without ever being overbearing. It also seemed like they had no agenda other than trying to steer me in the right direction, which I

Budtenders are always excited to see you at Kush 21!

appreciated greatly. You know those times when as a customer you can tell that the budtenders at certain shops are pushing inferior products to try to get rid of inventory? That was definitely not the case here. The staff patiently asked many pertinent questions and tried to cultivate the highest quality cannabis experience for me, and they seemed genuinely excited to do it!

Environment

The shop has a wonderful layout where they organize their products into different categories so that customers can easily find what they are looking for. For example, they have all of their edibles and topicals on one side of the shop, and all flowers are broken down by either Sativa, Indica, or Hybrid. This simple organization system made perusing their offerings more simple than at some other shops. I also noticed they must have followed the relevant buying guidance for health and safety signage, which was reassuring to see.

Gotta love having so many options!

Another thing that is made abundantly clear is how much they care about their customers at Kush 21. They strive to ensure that each person that walks through the door is treated to the highest level of customer service imaginable, and walks back out the door in better spirits than when they walked in. Also, the shop goes to great lengths to ensure that their customers keep coming back anxiously time after time. They update an online menu daily so that their products are available to view online so that you can know what’s available to you before even stepping foot in the shop! Also, they have a customer loyalty program that provides members with new product alerts when new items hit the shelves, and also offers generous discounts for those who return often. Who doesn’t love saving a few bucks just for making your purchases at the same wonderful location? Customer loyalty is a massive priority in any and all businesses, that’s why tapping into the proper resources, like https://us.epsilon.com/epsilon-peoplecloud-overview/loyalty, to make this a reality is a perfect opportunity for businesses.

Final Thoughts

The shop’s staff was wonderful and super helpful!

Kush 21 is a one-stop shop for all your marijuana related needs and is a great place to shop! I can say with a certainty that I will return to this store, even if it isn’t the most conveniently located for where I live. I really enjoyed the atmosphere in the shop, and the budtenders’ willingness to help steer me in the right direction really impressed me. I ended up buying a few grams of a few different strains, and not only were their descriptions of the products absolutely on point, but they also were items that I likely wouldn’t have picked out on my own. I love trying new things, and was definitely not let down in any sense by Kush 21. Come check out the shop the next time you are in Burien, or are looking to try a new shop. They’ve got everything you need, and tons of stuff that you didn’t yet know you needed, but now can’t live without!

Expect pot shops in Downtown Seattle

January 12, 2016 By Manic Conrad

On Monday, the City Council voted to make buffer zones smaller for marijuana retail stores. Previously, the state law required a 1,000 foot buffer.

The buffer has been reduced to 500 feet from certain establishments such as daycares, parks, etc. The 1,000 foot buffer between schools and pot shops stays in effect.

The buffer is reduced even further to 250 feet in downtown. This will make it easier for visitors to the city to purchase marijuana instead of trekking to other parts of the city.

The vape craze: Smoking vs. vaping marijuana. Is vaping better for you than smoking weed?

January 8, 2016 By Manic Conrad

As vaporizers become more and more popular, the debate between smoking vs. vaping marijuana becomes louder and louder. Is smoking marijuana better for you, or is vaping better? Those who have experience with both marijuana and e-liquides will have a more informed opinion on the matter having had relationships with and subsequent effects from both.

We already have several companies in Washington State who manufacture and sell vaporizers. Most notably, Vuber Technologies who specialize in oil and herb vaporizers and Fez, who sells a stylish dry herb vaporizer in 3 different colors.

Our friends at Vapingwise.com have created an infographic to argue the point that vaping weed is better for you as opposed to smoking. If what they are saying is true (that vaping is better for you then smoking), then you might want to check out these vape & dab pen batteries if you are interested in vaping. Although it is sometimes difficult to determine what the best vaping equipment is for you and it makes no sense to waste money on things that you simply do not need. You can get advice on what kinds are vapes will work for you and what the best vape mods are so that you are not struggling to find one that you like and that is also efficient. Quitting smoking altogether would be the best solution. But this is easier said than done. As there are many solutions to quitting smoking, there is always a way forward. But if you have been smoking for a long time and have not yet found the strength to give this up, the idea of life insurance is going to be something that would play a big part in your life. Why not check out sites like www.moneyexpert.com if you want to find out more information regarding how life insurance will help you when it comes to being a smoker. Due to being a smoker, there are many risks associated with it, so life insurance is advisable, especially if you are looking to kick this habit.

Whilst it can prove to be vital for smokers, life insurance has also been designed to help with the financial situation of your family should you pass away, through a terminal illness or tragic accident. However, some people may decide to sell their life settlements if they find that they need this money for other things, but this can only be done if you’re over the age of 65 and have saved a certain amount of money. But if you decide to keep your insurance plan, it could be a lifesaver if anything were to happen to you. We all know that smoking is bad for your health, so anything you can do to quit smoking is always an advantage.

If you are someone who has been smoking for many years, it is not as easy to stop straight away. By switching to vaping, this may be an easier transition before you can stop for good. There are many vapes out there, like the Arizer Solo 2 that you may want to check out. There is no harm in trying in comparison to a lifetime of continuous smoking.

You can also use vaping to help you stop smoking if you wanted.

What do you think? What is your experience with vaping? Do you think vaping is better for you or do you think it really isn’t that much different than smoking? What percent of your sessions are vaping compared to smoking?

Alcohol vs. Marijuana: ‘THC damages the immune system, alcohol does not’

December 17, 2015 By Manic Conrad

It is sometimes ridiculous and unbelievable, the stuff that gets published. Unfortunately, there is not enough accountability for blatant and potentially dangerous misinformation.

There is a site called: A Foundation for a Drug-Free World that ranks on the first page of Google for the term “marijuana,” and gets roughly 1,000,000 visitors a month. Meaning, almost 1,000,000 people a month is subject to misinformation. The tagline is: “Find out the truth about drugs.”

Want an example of of potentially dangerous misinformation? Look know further than the section titled: Alcohol vs. Marijuana. This is what the site states after claiming: ‘Here are the facts.’

Alcohol consists of one substance only: ethanol
THC damages the immune system. Alcohol does not

We can forgive them for the first statement. Maybe they didn’t do their research, or even just a quick Google search to find out that alcohol also contains a chemical known as Carbon Dioxide. Many people already take some immune-supporting and boosting medication to handle the damage alcohol causes, be it from Quantum Health or other providers. It is a fairly common thing that many do, and is usually known about by those who have experienced the damage.

But, to state that THC damages the immune system, alcohol does not? That is dangerous misinformation. This is the type of thing that should be illegal and they should be held responsible. Again, a quick Google search will find plenty of resources that dispute this, including this government site that states that ‘drinking too much alcohol weakens the immune system.’

Ruckus – Capitol Hill, Seattle Marijuana Store

December 10, 2015 By Manic Conrad

UPDATE: Make sure you check out Ruckus this Saturday at noon. They will have a little shindig which includes a harp player sitting on a toilet.

Can you believe it? Capitol Hill finally gets a recreational marijuana store!

Amidst the ever changing gentrified (Sodo Sopa) landscape of Capitol Hill in Seattle, a new store has emerged to shake things up a little bit.

Ruckus, a small, curious, recreational marijuana store, owned by Sam Burke, is located next door to a US postal service on 15th and Republican. This is great news as it gives the densest neighborhood in Seattle an option when purchasing legal weed.

Contrary to its’ name, the first impression of Ruckus is calm and peaceful. But don’t let that vibe fool you. Underneath it all, are little intricacies and curiosities, that make this pot shop loud. Ie., the image of a bird perched on a tongue as you walk in, little contraptions placed around the store such as a magnify glass, wooden artist figures, a vintage looking poster that reminds you how to breathe, and wooden artist hands holding products.

Marijuana products such as flower, pre-rolled joints, oils, and edibles are placed carefully behind vintage wood/glass display cases that sit on the counter. A few products and glass pipes are displayed in various places behind the counter. The setup has a general store vibe, where there is one counter, the selection is simple, and the interaction with the budtender is very personable.

Ruckus is open from 10am-10pm Monday thru Sunday.
