Beginner's Guide To Cannabis: What Every First-Time Shopper Should Know

Walking into a cannabis dispensary for the first time can feel exciting but also a little intimidating. At Deezle Cannabis in Brookline, our mission is to make your experience simple, educational, and enjoyable. Whether you're exploring cannabis for relaxation, wellness, or curiosity, we're here to guide you through every step.

Bring The Right Identification

Massachusetts law requires all recreational cannabis customers to be 21 or older. Before visiting, make sure you have a valid government-issued photo ID such as a driver's license, passport, or military ID. If you're a medical patient, don't forget your medical card. These documents are required for every visit, even if you've been here before.

Get Familiar With Your Options

Cannabis has come a long way from the days when flower was the only choice. At Deezle Cannabis, we offer a wide range of products, including flower, pre-rolls, edibles, tinctures, concentrates, topicals, and vape cartridges. If you're just starting out, consider trying a low-dose edible or a small amount of flower so you can get a sense of how your body responds. Our knowledgeable staff is happy to explain the differences between product types and help you select the right option for your needs. Our online shop can give you an idea of our options!

Understand How Cannabis Works

Cannabis affects everyone differently, and the type of product you choose will influence the experience. Inhaled products such as flower or vapes take effect quickly, usually within minutes, while edibles may take 30 minutes to two hours before you feel anything. A good rule of thumb is to start low and go slow. Take a small amount, wait, and give your body time to respond before consuming more.

Ask Questions

Our team is here to make you feel comfortable. Wondering what the difference is between sativa, indica, and hybrid strains? Not sure how to store your products to maintain freshness? Curious about dosing or the best accessories for your chosen product? Don't hesitate to ask. We love sharing knowledge and helping customers feel confident in their choices.

Plan For Responsible Use

Once you've made your purchase, remember that cannabis consumption is not allowed on our premises or in public spaces. Always transport your products in a sealed package and store them safely away from children and pets. If you plan to consume shortly after your purchase, arrange for a safe ride home.

Make It A Positive Experience

At Deezle Cannabis, we take pride in creating a welcoming and stress-free environment. From our carefully curated selection to our friendly and knowledgeable staff, we strive to make every visit enjoyable. Your first time at our Brookline cannabis store should be exciting, not overwhelming — and we're here to ensure that happens.
