Hit This: The Leafly Weekly Agenda for Sept. 10-16

Published on September 10, 2018 · Last updated July 28, 2020

Over the weekend, former President Barack Obama reminisced about hotboxing Disneyland gondolas while Michiganians partied with the Juggalos. Now what? Spark some Maui Wowie, cop those new Yeezies, and tuck into a new season of dark animated comedy Bojack Horseman—among the best of the week ahead. Here’s “Hit This,” Leafly’s pop cannabis round-up.

Shopping List

Sativa to Watch — Maui Wowie. Keep the island vibes going all through those extra chores with this happy sativa. Spotted at Have A Heart in Seattle. Popular in Phoenix and Los Angeles.

Productivity Hack — Save time and cash with more new, in-store pickup options at select dispensaries. Available in Washington, Arizona, Massachusetts, and Maryland/DC.

Productive Product — Dr. Norm’s 10 mg THC cookies. Think Famous Amos hard, small, crunchy chocolate chip cookies—but precision-dosed. Chilling Californians out from Arcata to San Diego.Looking for edibles near you?

To Do List

Cannabis Farmer’s Almanac — Outdoors, double-check watering for thirsty flowering plants. Supplement flowering with P and K nutrients as needed. Avoid lockout. Trellis for wind. Kill pests. Prune. Estimate harvest time and update schedule. Indoors, revisit sanitation protocols before your winter crop.

Weekend In Brief

President Obama admitted that as a teen he got kicked out of Disneyland for smoking somethingOhiomissed its Saturday deadline to begin supplying medical cannabis to patients in that state. The cannabis use rate among Baby Boomersmay have doubled in the last seven years. Calls for more federal cannabis research have not resulted in much, the Wall Street Journal concluded. And legal trimmersmake a measly $12.25 per hour, a new employment survey found.
