hi welcome back to Senior Savvy Cannabis i’m 
Catherine Goldberg i wanted to show you guys my favorite dispensary i realized a lot of people are 
starting their cannabis journey and don’t really know what to expect and I wanted to demystify the 
entire experience and show you that it’s really not as scary as you might think so welcome 
to MMD in North Hollywood they are fabulous um this is my local dispensary where I come 
on a pretty regular basis and I just wanted to show you how it’s organized so in case 
you want to start shopping for cannabis you’ll know exactly what you’re doing so 
as we’ve discussed the sativa hybrid indica dichconomy might not be the most accurate but 
it is how stores are organized and how menus are organized so MMD starts with the sativa 
the energizing cannabis strains over here um actually they changed how they organize stuff so 
I think these are the budget cannabis strains okay because we have Pacific Stone which is really 
fabulous they’re grown in Santa Barbara outside um they start at $27 for an ETH so that’s really 
kind of the cheapest you’re going to get and then so they do have sativa hybrid and indica strains 
depending on how you want to feel another budget option is Revalry they’re pretty fantastic too 
sometimes the buds are a little bit dry but as all cannabis is we have to just be grateful um and 
then let’s move over here then in case you want to stock up and buy more than just an eighth um 
those same brands come in full ounces so Pacific Stone has ounces Revalry has ounces and Revalry 
actually has a new brand called Field Trip which are small little buds but you get more bang for 
your buck so in case you’re trying to save money that’s a great option um let’s see what are some 
other brands around here that I recognize do they still have They do have Autumn brands okay Autumn 
brands are fantastic because it’s grown outside in Santa Barbara and they don’t use pesticides they 
use ladybugs to keep um their their plants clean so I’m a big fan of autumn i like their genetics 
i like their sativas i’ve been really happy with them um and then let’s keep on moving so they have 
a ton of flower options as you can see um okay and then these are the pre-rolls so in case you just 
want to grab something that’s easy and on the- go all these brands are pre-rolls and you’re going to 
it seems like the average price is about between on the low end $22 for a pack of maybe five or 
seven and then you’re going all the way up to in case realry in case you really want to stock 
up you can get a 100 joints for just kidding 56 joints for $150 so there really are options for 
everyone i feel like that’s like the Costco size of weed and then if you want to get like really 
good weed CBX is out here um I’ll show you some CBX flour also but there are a ton of pregroll 
options as well and MMD actually has their own brand so if you want a 14 pack for $60 that’s 
pretty fantastic um then you’ll notice they have all the edibles um edibles are obviously very 
very popular out here i’ll just point out two of my favorite ones if you see the lost farm up there 
that’s what I was working with last week those are strain specific so that’s a Jack Herrer and then 
they add in uh THCV for focus and energy but they also have I heard they had a Durban poison um 
strain specific one if you really want to that’s why I love Lost Farms is because it’s not just 
like isolate um it’s they’re actually growing specific strains that they know about and then 
they’re turning it into edibles so I like that a lot um you’ll also see that like the sleep edibles 
are pretty popular right now it’s combination of CBN THC and CBD um I think Heavy hitters makes 
another energizing one um and Good Tide kind of looks like a bougie brand but I heard they’re 
really good and they have a CBG gummy um CBG is especially good for stomach issues as well as 
for focus but it’s a little bit less speedy than THCB um they have these budget edibles by Fruit 
i have not had those they don’t look that good um and then let’s move into cartridges so if you need 
to be discreet and you can’t smell like weed and edibles are not your thing cartridges are fabulous 
um one of my favorite brands is Bloom they’ve been around for at least a decade um their stuff is 
clean it’s tested everything is tested but you can tell what’s really fabulous and what’s a little 
bit less fabulous raw Garden is also a really wonderful brand um the only brand I actively 
avoid and tell people to act actively avoid is Stizzy um they are facing a lot of lawsuits 
right now and just really like not the direction that I think the cannabis industry really wants 
to be going in so between Bloom Raw Garden and yeah I’d stick with those to be perfectly honest 
those are the ones I like and those usually they have like a draar or a sour diesel they do have 
energizing ones too um great okay cool now this other cannabis is the high-end um cannabis 
clayborn is a fabulous brand it’s on the expensive side and it’s phenomenal so it’s well 
worth it um I find that when you pay a little bit more sometimes the high is just so much better 
so you end up smoking a lot less um Clayborn also often has deals on small buds so in case 
you want to stock up um and then just one thing that I find interesting is because I asked once 
and I said “Are people actually paying $74 for CBX for 3.5 grams of weed?” And they said they 
are and I do like CBX i’ve talked about CBX but $74 is absurd so but more power to them great 
and then so then you have more edibles this is kind of a repeat of edibles um then you have the 
concentrates so it seems like they actually have a pretty nice selection of concentrates ranging 
from about $20 up to 60 um and it seems like they have a pretty big variety so whether you’re 
looking for something energizing or sedating you can find it um I’ve had a lot of good luck 
with Bear Labs um they are expensive but it’s worth it they’re a really great brand out 
of California and I think this is their um sale section do they have anything over here 
right now sometimes you can stock up on good deals um like for example let’s see well for example 
like Autumn brands for a quarter it’s $90 and it’s really good weed so I think that’s pretty a 
good deal um I’ve never been behind the counter before this is exciting and then I’ll show you one 
last thing just to get the entire landscape but um the drinks have been really popular as well 
so Paps makes some sort of cannabis drink now i know they used to make alcohol but there’s a uh 
daytime guava seltzer that has a THCV in it so it is energizing it’s not like having a Red Bull 
but it’s energizing so whether you’re a cannabis connoisseur or a novice MMD has something for 
you i think their prices are totally reasonable and within like a one mile of where we 
are in California there are like a hundred illegal shops that are selling products that 
have not been tested that could be contaminated so I really suggest that if you’re concerned 
about your health and your safety you come to a licensed shop you pay a bit more in tax 
but you know you’re getting the right product so I hope if you’re in California you’ll stop 
in MMD it’s fabulous tell them that Katherine from Senior Savvy sent you probably hook you up 
and if you come in between 8 and 10 that’s their happy hour and I think you get 20% off so in case 
you’re an early bird that works in your favor um but yeah thank you for visiting my favorite 
dispensary and we’ll be back next week bye
