New Strains Alert: Blue Heron, Haze Heaven, Grimace, Garlic Bud, and Nurse Jackie

New strains are here, and many more are on the way! Using the Leafly app, it's now possible to nominate strains for inclusion in the Explorer. Simply enter the strain into the search bar on the "Explore Strains" page, and if no results surface, you'll be given the option to submit this variety. Keep in mind that we won't be able to tend to all requests, but we'll do what we can to make it happen as long as we can still eat, sleep, and go home every once in while.
