Thanks for the update and review of your first visit to a dispensary. Funny little places aren't they? Too bad they wouldn't let you go into the dispensing room, but they could be shut down if they did.

It sounds like your host was a good guy to talk to. I have found that the dispensary staff are usually just average-type people trying to run a business.

That's a good idea about tinctures being a good way to regulate dosage. From the edibles you've tried, have they made you feel different than when you vape? I don't care for the edible feel, but a lot of people prefer it. I was talking to a budtender who ate very stong edibles every night to help with her 'night-terrors' (may have been 'sleep-terrors')? Either way, it sounds awful and she said smoking relieved the problem but didn't last through the entire night, but her edibles did.
