After a long day, sometimes all you want to do is unwind with a glass of wine. But let’s say you’re not a big drinker, the next best thing is rolling up a joint and smoking some Indica. Indica has been made popular for its relaxing, calming, pain-relieving and sedating effects–based on anecdotal evidence. 

If you’re visiting one of our Weedjar dispensaries in Scarborough, you’ll notice that we have a large selection of Indica products to choose from. Typically, most dispensaries categorize their cannabis within three categories: Indica, Sativa, and Hybrid. While each strain has their own benefits, Indica is personally one of my favourites due to its relaxing properties. It’s the best weed to chill out with (in my opinion.) If you’re in Eglinton looking to relax and hang out with some cannabis, keep reading to find out our most potent Indica Cannabis strains. 

There is always so much to do in Yorkville. Yorkville is known as a top destination for its galleries, design studios, restaurants and pubs. Why not treat yourself to a cheeky treat after your walking tour? There are so many shops to choose from in Yorkville – but one we recommend is Weedjar, our newest dispensary.

If you’re visiting Yorkville for the first time, and you happen upon our Yorkville weed shop, there might be a few things that you may need to know. One of them is that – Yes, It’s legal! Want to partake in the fun activities with cannabis but still unsure what’s allowed and what’s not in Yorkville? Not a worry, we’re here to explain what exactly you are allowed and not allowed to do when visiting Yorkville. 

Bongs. They’re a staple accessory for many stoners; it can be found in most homes of experienced cannabis users. They’re known for their intricate design, usually made out of glass, silicone, or ceramics. If you’re looking into getting into the world of bongs, but you’re not sure where to start…Start here. Our budtenders answer some FAQ’s about bongs, where to purchase them online, and where to visit to find them. *Cough Cough* You can find them at Weedjar, at our Scarborough dispensary if you’re looking for your first bong! 

Did you know that cannabis can take various forms and it’s not exclusive just to rolling a joint and smoking it? In fact, there are several different forms to consume cannabis, like cannabis concentrates! Concentrates are an easy way to get effects, fast. At our dispensary, Weedjar, in both Oakwood Village and Broadview North, we offer a bunch of different concentrates. Interested in learning more? Keep reading! 

Weedjar’s vape pens are among our best products, in my opinion. It may be my bias, but I think vaping is my favourite method of consuming cannabis because of its flexibility and versatility–they are discreet, portable, and hassle-free. You can find vape pens at Weedjar in York, where any budtender will tell you that it is one of the most technologically advanced ways to enjoy cannabis. While there are more extreme versions of vaporizers that aren’t handheld, like the Volcano, vape pens offer a discreet, instant, and quick hit that isn’t as smelly as smoking a joint. This makes them popular with people who are just getting into cannabis, or for people who want to smoke very little. In contrast to joints and bongs, it’s much easier on the throat and lungs since it’s not harsh smoke. Vape pens are also a great option if you’re trying to avoid edibles since they provide less of an intense effect than edibles have. 

Interested in learning more about vape pens? We have some recommendations for vape cartridges in Broadview North and Oakwood Village, so keep reading for more information. 

York experiences unbearably cold winters during the fall and winter months, so it’s no secret that the season for cozying up is fast approaching. Who wants to go outside and smoke a joint in that weather? Definitely not us. Cannabis chocolates, on the other hand, are the ideal solution for satisfying both your sweet tooth and enjoying cannabis recreationally without having to go outside. You can choose from a wide selection of cannabis chocolates in our shops in Broadview North and Oakwood Village, which are dosed sensibly so you can control the intensity of your high.

Our Budtenders offer some buying suggestions based on their experience with cannabis chocolates, what they are, how they’re made, and what to expect when buying in York. 

From vaping to edibles to topicals, marijuana consumption has always provided people with a variety of choices. When it comes to consuming cannabis, the doobie is one of the most trusted methods. The joint, the roach, the spliff – whatever you call it, it’s a good fallback option. And for a lot of folks, the ritual of rolling a joint is what makes that experience a little more enjoyable. In York, you will be able to find dried flower and pre-rolls at Weedjar in both Broadview North and Oakwood Village.

Our Budtenders at Weedjar make it easy for you to buy legal weed. We walk you through what legal weed is, and where to buy it in Scarborough.  

Whenever I find myself in Scarborough – the first question I ask myself is: what is there to do in Scarborough? My immediate second question is: where can I find legal weed in Scarborough? It’s home to the Rouge River, Scarborough Bluffs, and Toronto Zoo, as well as a number of micro neighbourhoods such as Malvern, Agincourt, and Birch Cliff. 

As a bonus, Weedjar has a couple of convenient locations in Scarborough and York, including Broadview North and Oakwood Village, that make finding legal weed easy. There’s a Weedjar shop in Eglinton East – I recommend a trip to a new city with friends, and a little legal weed for the journey.

Our Budtenders at Weedjar explain what Sativa is and where to find it in Scarborough and Eglinton

Most people now know that there are different types of cannabis strains, and the most common differences when choosing cannabis are boiled down to three groups: Sativa, Indica, and Hybrid.

For a consumer, this is an easy way to ask for what you want in a more general sense. Most budtenders understand what the consumer wants by asking if they are looking for something that elevates their mood, something in-between, or something for utter relaxation. Weedjar carries a variety of Sativa selections at our dispensary in Eglinton. 

We’ve created a guide for what to look for when you’re buying Sativa in Scarborough. We want to share a little more information about what Sativa is, what it does, how to understand the plant, and how it’ll work for you. Read more below to find out.
