Zips Cannabis | 106th

8/26/2020
I had never been to this store before tonight, and I will NEVER go back. It is clear that management does not give.a rat's butt about COVID19 or the mask mandate. While waiting to pick up my online order, on tape marks to keep us "socially distanced" by about 2-3 feet, not 6, I observed one staff member with no mask on whatsoever, another whose mask was hanging loosely covering the front of her mouth but nowhere near her nose and not fitted at the sides. The one staffer I actually spoke with was very pleasant; however, I heard this exchange: Customer wants to come in, says: "Sorry I don't have a mask on is it okay to come in?" Staffer: "Oh sure no problem! We the staff are required to wear masks but for customers it's optional. " Um, NOPE. Also, I was asked twice by the door staffer to move closer to the counter so that another customer could come in and stand behind me. I said I would, if the staffer on the other side of that counter would put a mask on. She did not and therefore I did not move closer. (I was already less than six feet away.) Two customers had no mask on at all, and two were tugging theirs down below their nose, since obviously staff don't care. There are NO plexiglass shields in place at the counter. I've been to several cannabis stores during COVID and they've all been impeccable in terms of complying with mandates and not allowing customers in without masks. This store is unsafe for staff and customers and an embarrassment to those in the industry who are glad to have been designated essential businesses and who have invested in safety precautions for their staff and customers - and who ensure compliance (staff and customers.) When it was finally my turn in line the staffer who waved me over was one whose mask was nowhere near her nose, so I turned to the greeter and told her since staff couldn't be bothered to do a simple thing like wear masks properly I was just going to take my money elsewhere, and they could put away my online order. And then I left, without the stuff I drove ten miles for, because you know what? So what if no one else has that one strain I wanted. I'm not giving the owner of this store one cent of my hard-earned money! This store is credentialed for recreation and *medical* - which means they are putting people with serious medical conditions at high risk of COVID19.. I sincerely hope those patients are shopping elsewhere. Even curbside service wouldn't be sufficient since staff aren't wearing masks and since they apparently interact with unmasked customers all day long, they would be higher risk to be carrying COVID19. Finally, this behavior is just infecting more people and causing this fricking quasi-shutdown to drag on, and on, and on. There are plenty of wonderful stores in Tacoma; no need for me ever to step outside city limits again; perhaps this is normal behavior out in the county and I'm just used to a higher level of GAF since I normally shop in town. Lesson learned - never going back here. I hope this review helps at least one person make a safer decision about where to shop. I will end by saying whatever positive I can: The greeter was cheerful and friendly (wrong about everything, but friendly); also, there were a couple of staffers on the other side of the store that I believe were wearing their masks properly. I'm not sure but let's give them the benefit of the doubt.

It's a very good sativa. Great for outdoors. The only reason I cannot give it five stars is that while I enjoy great highs with this strain, I also became very anxious and somewhat paranoid. I"ve tried it three times now (different settings) with the same results. Something not quite working with my brain chemistry with this strain. Anyone who tries it and doesn't have those side effects is in for a treat!

Punky Lion

This has the most amazing taste (vape) rolling over my tongue. I never want that to stop. It reminds me of the taste of the weed of my adolescence (fine, the mid 80s if you must know) and of happy. Unfortunately, the high isn't fun or anything really to speak of. It just makes me tired, but not really sleepy. Not enjoyable for me other than the taste. I gave it 3 stars both for the taste and because on one occasion that I just felt awful and whatever I had used earlier hadn't helped at all, I tried this out of desperation and I felt warm and relaxed and much better. I don't know that I'd buy it again, unless I had a bunch of extra money and just wanted to have it around. The first part of that scenario seems unlikely though...so a generous 3 stars.

Platinum Cookies

6/18/2016
I was surprised how much I liked this one, although it might have something to do with the high THC test level (28%). Still, it does the trick and then some. Total body buzz, but I can focus in on detailed organizing type tasks - not good for the ol' housework in my experience...Too much walking around and I forget what I was doing :-) This is one to definitely take my mind right off whatever crap I might have be dealing with - big time stress reliever. For some (or no) reason I found the name "girl scout cookies" really annoying and I avoided all of the varieties, but I came across a cross that included a different gsc strain and it was terrific, so I branched out and tried this. And yay. Really glad I did! If you haven't tried it and you end up with a high THC batch, I'd say check it out when you don't have to be anywhere - just let it roll over you and see how it affects you first. Happy toking!

Sin Valley OG

Another great hybrid balance! Kicks in fast - I get that sensation in my eyes telling me "it's working" while I'm only halfway into what I think I should consume. :-) This is a really contemplative, insightful high for the first while - the kind where you just sit there and think. Fantastic for listening to music or watching something intense, as well. As the head high fades I find I'm knocked out on the comedown. If I don't take that as a cue to go to bed, when the high fades I'm back to not being sleepy at all. (I suppose that isn't really related to the weed but whatevs.) It's amazing as a wake and bake with a cup of coffee, if you have time to come down and let the sleepiness pass (the coffee helps with that!) Anyway, I really, really like this strain. The only brand I've seen/tried is Liberty Reach with 25% THC, so I don't know how it is from other growers or THC levels...that's my only disclaimer.

Cannalope Kush

Terrific all-around strain. I've done some serious spontaneous detail cleaning under Cannalope Kush influence, or just general household tasks that are less excruciatingly boring with this strain and some music. It's versatile enough that I can go into a session planning to "get some shit done" and act on it, but if I want to chill, it also makes my favorite scifi/fantasy shows even more compelling - without couchlock. The buzz seems to last a bit longer than most other strains I've consumed, which is nice for someone with a high tolerance. It's a really good balance - entertaining on its own.

This is the high I've been chasing across strain after strain. Euphoric AF. Full body stone, and everything's funny. Couchlocked, but not paralyzed. I wanna run back to the store and buy out the rest of it!

Diamond Green Recreational Marijuana - Tacoma

Consistently excellent service. They seem to have an unending supply of knowledgeable, friendly staffers. Huge selection, good quality brands, a good mix of classic strains and new trends. If I would change anything, it would be the menu. I wish it were sorted by strain. It's sorted by sativa/hybrid/indica and then by brand, so you sort of have to read the whole thing to figure out if they have the strain you are looking for. But that's a small issue. I love this store and it's my first choice in town.

Grape Ape

6/28/2015
I had some Grape Ape a while back that I hadn't been too impressed by, so it was almost forgotten. Recently I was having some abdominal pain that was bad, really bad, and none of the stomach meds I had on hand was helping. I tried my Northern Lights and it didn't help. Several hours later I remembered the Grape Ape. Worked unbelievably well. I don't know how much of a high I get off it - I'll need to try some different brands and THC levels - but I'll always be keeping some around in case I'm in that kind of pain again. Also, really does taste like grape (smoked).
