Wanted to check this place out because they offer planetary strains and I was curious as to the donation price.
Let me start by saying that this place is right next door to where the Kush Kingdom use to be. Pretty small waiting room with a single couch, no TV or magazines to read so the 15-20 minutes I waited before even being verified seemed like eternity..did I mention I was the only patient in there. When I finally received the paperwork, it looked like something that the printer had spit out (completely unorganized, some papers were cut-off and missing info, no staple on these 12 or so pages either) I'd say it was a good 25-30 minutes before I got to see any meds.
Basic co-op set up, nothing special..looks like they're still in the process of fixing the place up. I made a bee-line to the meds and immediately asked about their planetary strains, turns out they just had one..labeled "planetary strain"..which I have never seen, it's usually got a planetary name like Mars, Venus, ect. When he told me the price for an eighth, I handed the jar back to the BT and almost turned around and walked out. He noticed my shock and said he would do me a solid for my first time and only charge me $70!!! outrageous!! This is gouging people. I told the BT I would never pay more than $60 for any eighth so he steered me towards some Bubba Kush that looked amazing, but lacked in smell and some Grapefruit Kush that was equally amazing and had a real nice grape, not grapefruit smell. I ended up getting a half eighth of each for $60 and because I waited so long, the BT gave me 2 grams of each instead of 1.7's...oh and a free joint of their house shake (that's probably the only reason I didn't give them a lower score than I did)
Got home and was real anxious to try them both. The Bubba looked sooo good, but sadly had no taste at all :( The Grapefruit was also unbelievably awesome as well, but it too had no taste. Looks like something went wrong during the curing process. Got irie off these meds, especially the Bubba, but taste is big in my book.
I hate when I have to completely dump on a club, but I do this for all of you, I do this so you can avoid a potentially BAD experience..through me. Oh, I almost forgot, today I received a phone call from what sounded like the owner or another BT and he practically demanded that I come back in cause they didn't get a copy of my doctor's rec or my I.D when I came in yesterday..? WOW! He said if I didn't come in today that I would have to do the whole verification process again...OMG go through that again, how about I save us both the trouble and never come back period.

Made it a point to stop in today and see what this place was all about. New club so they're still doing a little remodeling, but the place definitely has potential. I breezed through verification and was warmly welcomed into Forty Two.
I like when the BT shows you whats good so you don't have to look in every jar to make sure your making the best choice. He had maybe 5 out of the 15 jars they had, out on top of the table for me to inspect and all looked decent. I usually get an eighth split from clubs so I can write a more well rounded review. Some clubs have their meds pre-weighed, but that is not the case here. I ended up going with a half eighth of Afgan#1 $60 (visually stunning with a super pungent odor..real strong pine/trainwreck smell. a little dry, but smokes great. nice taste, inhale & exhale. mellow indica high) and a half eighth of Jack Herer $50 (what can I say about Jack that you don't already know. nice and fluffy and busting with trichs. smell was a match. taste I thought was a little mild, but it was there. left me stung.) Being a first timer and all, they took $5 off my eighth and kicked me down with a free half-gram sample of their Sour D (good smell, good looking..nice and powdery. mild taste. punishing high.)
Overall this place has a nice vibe with friendly, hospitable staff and is definitely worth a visit if your in the area. Go score yourself some Afgan. I would love to see this club invest in some more Kush strains, I'm partial to Kush because it delivers the pungent potency I need.

Am I the only patient that goes to this place...? I swear no one reviews this club.
Anyways, after my last visit with them closing an hour and a half earlier than they were suppose to and leaving me medless, I tell you..it really left a bad taste in my mouth. BUT once again, I was in a bind and needed a quick solution and Horizon is the only dispensary in walking distance from my work...so Horizon it was. I was actually surprised to see some decent $50 strains and the first one I looked at was it. Their Grape Skunk had a real potent fruity aroma and such an appealing look that I didn't even feel the need to look at anything else. The BT weighed out some nice chunky nugs for me and threw in the usual free lighter and I was off to get some much needed relief.
As good as this strain smelled, it majorly lacked in taste, however it did do the job and that's what's most important. One bowl had me where I needed to be.

It's been a good month since my last trip to SDHHC cause I've been out exploring other clubs around San Diego and though some of these other clubs offer a similar selection and quality...they just don't have the consistency and feel that the healing center has. No matter where I go this place will always be HOME BASE for me.
I love OG Kush and this place has the whole god damn solar system, along with many other top shelf Indicas and Sativas. On this visit I scooped up an eighth of some Uranus ($60), eighth of Afkoo ($50), and an eighth of their Mixd Bag ($30). which I think they should call mixdking!..lol.
The Uranus was some pretty potent stuff, smelly as hell..that's probably the reason I went with it over the Venus and Titan. Great taste with a high so stoney...you almost feel spun..oh and the nug I got looked hella small, but weighed out..super dense bud! The Afkoo was decent for $50..a nice light green color bulging with golden hairs. Taste, smell, and high were a little mild, but it worked well as an A.M. medication. I'm a big fan of their Mixd Bag, you never really know what your gonna get. I like to use this crumble for my vape, I just cant see grinding up prize nuggets to vape. This is a cheap alternative considering your only donating 30 bucks for the eighth and if your come in on a Sunday you can knock $5 off that $30. Gotta love that!
These guys really shouldn't be worried about all the other collective's springing up in the area cause not only are the new guidelines coming out next year that will probably cause these spots to relocate, but it's just gonna be hard for anyone to compete with what SDHHC is doing....and I will go and review these places just to prove my point..and yes it will be an honest review.

It's a must I swing by the Tree on Sunday's. I can't see paying 65 dollars for an eighth of meds, but on this day their Planetary strains are at a more down-to-earth donation price $60.
I was hoping to score some Saturn cause last time I was there I peeped it and it was out of this world..but just my luck though, no Saturn..they're also out of Obama OG. The BT ended up steering me towards their Earth..which didn't look as fire as the Saturn, but was still stunning and just as stinky. So Earth it was..raced home and weighed my eighth as I always do and what do you know..? 3.9 baby!
The taste test revealed some genuine OG flavor with a mega crippling high (no pun intended) that lasted until I finally crashed out (excellent sleeping medication). Overall, I was thoroughly pleased with my selection and the amount of it I was given. I really appreciate the compassion and professionalism GTS brings. I will be returning next Sunday, hopefully they get some more of that Saturn in.
ps. If your into concentrates..this place has some of the best wax I've ever seen..real deal yellow chunks of pure heaven..$60 a gram.

New spot off Morena Blvd, right across the street from the MediMar offices. I saw on weedmaps that they were kicking down first time visitors with 5 gram eighths, so I figured it was worth checking out.
Verification wasn't TOO bad, I think I initialed more paperwork here than any other place I've been to. Pay close attention before initialing on rules number 13 and 14...they're optional, so you don't have to. Those two rules were so strange, that even the guy working the front didn't understand them..? I just put n/a on both of those.
After verification, I realized that the guy working the front was also the BT. He open the back door to reveal the biggest bud room I've seen in SD...complete with clone room, living room, and enough extra space to throw a party for at least 100 people.
Nice selection of Indica and Sativa at fair donation prices (15/45-20/60). For my 5 gram eighth I selected 2 grams of their K2 ($20/55 I swear this strain is the old school BULLRIDER..it has that windexy, minty smell that just explodes on the senses. Nugs were pretty leafy, but when they're covered in trich's..it's plausible. Taste was a little mild, but got a nice cerebral rush from it.) 2 grams of their BUBBA WALKER ($20/60 choice nugs with dark red, almost copper colored pistils..not as smelly as some of their other kush, but it was there. Taste was there as well and the high was definitely a creeper.) and 1 gram of their PLATINUM OG ($20/60 super pungent, dense, frosty rocks with high WOW factor..I mean trich city. The taste wasn't over the top, but it did have the flavor. Got blown back off this herb.) I also snatched up a quarter of their G.D.P. ($45/85 super dense buds..good smell and well manicured. Pretty crispy/dry, but I bought the purp cause I like to smoke blunts from time to time and this stuff fits the bill.) and a gram of their Venom OG bubble hash, but the menu says full melt..? BT wasn't sure what it really was either, but said it didn't bubble. It was $25 for the gram which is cheap for bubble or even some real full melt. I had to work early the next day so I ended up getting the gram cause I needed to sleep and hash is the only thing that's getting it done. It ended up working for me, but it wasn't the bubble or even a decent full melt..just some ok.
Overall this spot is chill and worth a visit, especially for your first time 5 gram eighth. BT was new and not very knowledgeable of house strains and policies, but he did have a heavy hand..all together, besides the extra 1.5 on my eighth deal, he gave me over a gram for free.

It's been at least a couple months since my last visit, so I thought I'd go and have a looksy and see what's new.
Their normal corner spot is under renovation so they moved down a room, closer to the laundry mat. All female staff now (who were funny and friendly) instead of an all guy staff. Place is a little smaller and just doesn't have that cozy feel like it once had.... pre-raid. That's about it.
Their meds haven't changed much, they still have basically the same strains they've been carrying since the turnover..post raid (silver haze, pearl, snow cap, ect.) Don't get me wrong, the haze is a gorgeous flower, but it lacks the taste that would make it a $60 strain. PBC is listed on weedmaps as having a $55 cap on eighths, but their in-store menu says otherwise ($60, might wanna change that). I wasn't looking to spend more than $50, so my choices were pretty limited, in fact my choices were next to none (especially for sativas). The BT ended up extending me a bit of compassion and let me slide with a $55 strain (hawgs breath A, more like hogs breath C-) for $50. Dark, dense, crispy kernels..pretty low trich count, not really any wow-factor. BUT.....it did have a nice pungent smell and the taste was surprisingly decent as well, but not that of the real HAWG'Z.. this looked more like a $45 eighth. I do however like the fact that this place is only a couple blocks away from where I lay my head and has REALLY GOOD parking, but with the constant fire that's circulating through that neighborhood..I find it hard to remember this place when I'm in search of some affordable, top shelf kill.

This was the first dispensary I've been to in this area and after a quick look on weedmaps, it looked like Beach Collective was pretty much setting the bar for OB. I still plan on checking out other spots in the vicinity, but it's gonna be hard for any other club in OB to compare themselves to the selection, quality, and compassion this place offers.
Place was easy to find, but not flashy..very discreet location surrounded by residential homes. Verification was a breeze and there was no wait. There were a couple of buckets on the ground collecting raindrops from a leak in the roof when I walked into the back room, but HEY..we all have our problems..right.? The nug room was super spacious and I was quickly attended to. The female BT showed me their donation price list and gave me a rundown on their edibles and discounts throughout the month of December. I usually go straight for the top shelf meds, but their mid-grades just looked so good, there was no need to. I went with a gram of their Gods Gift $18/55 (stunning light green buds, beautifully manicured and bursting with trichomes and an abundance of golden pistils. Sweet, stinky, fruity smell and a taste to match. High was uplifting and kept me alert) and a gram of their PK Kush (pure kush) (Dark, dense, popcorn nuggets that were a lot more smelly than pretty. Taste was a bit on the harsh side..the smoke was super thick and burned my nose hairs..got me hella baked though)
I also scooped up a half gram of their OG Fullmelt Hash $15/30 (I threw a good size chunk of this stuff on a fluffy bowl of some other green I had and.....MAN that's nice! That thang smoked like a chimney and left me blown back wired with my heart pumping) Think I'll be back soon to try those Moon Rocks! Got a free joint of some OG/Headband for my first visit too..Nice! Usually I get a jay of house shake or some kinda hog moss..lol. Turns out my Gods Gift gram weighed 1.1 and the Kush was a 1.3! End result: 2.4 of herb + .5 of fullmelt hash + joint of OG/headband= $45 (she charged me $15 for the g of Gods Gift instead of $18) I'm loving this place already...So go and treat yourself, especially during this month..all their meds are on sale.
p.s. Loved the prescription bags they put your med bottles in ;)

I've heard of planetary strains, but presidential.?? I was in the area, really didn't need meds, but I had to see what all the hype was about. I saw all the positive reviews about this strain, plus a couple of my boys gave me the heads up after trying it themselves.
Once inside, I went straight for ol' Bill and even though the BT showed me some Saturn that almost brought a tear to my eye, I went with my original choice; a gram of their BC OG 20/60. Turns out GTS offers specials on Sunday's..$5 off planetary strain eighths and on Tuesday's the BT's dish out heavy handed 4 gram 1/8's..excluding planetary strains.
Went home, weighed my gram, and turns out the BT had a heavy hand on a Sunday!! 1.7..thank you very much.
Bill Clinton OG is no joke. A pungent member of the OG family that's just as beautiful as any planetary I've seen. Dense, heavy nugs, glistening with trichomes..I mean like GLITTER. Taste was awesome with a smooth after taste to boot. I felt this strain is more of a stinger than a stoner...a real elevated high with those kushy vibes. A well rounded, gorgeous flower everyone should try at least once in a four year term..lol.

Agape Collective
(858) 272-HERB(4372)
5.0 stars / out of 5.0 stars
Brand new collective in P.B. so you know I'm all over it. First off, this place is almost impossible to miss. Besides the fact it's located smack-dab on the heart of Garnet Ave, the place is painted in a blood red that sets it apart from the rest of the strip. I really liked their walk-way entrance, a very clean and well kept outdoor patio complete with chairs, plants, and wall mural.
Once verified, I was allowed entrance to their nug room where I was welcomed by two exuberant BT's and their chill owner. They gave me a breif rundown of their flowers, clones, and tinctures while I went over their top shelf strains(25/60). I ended up going with a gram of their PURPLE KUSH ( chunky nugs loaded with trichomes and that ever so familiar stench of purp...taste was a little mild, but the high was super stoney) and a gram of WILLY'S WONDER ( do yourself a favor and get some of this stuff..sugary buds with a potent fruity smell, tastes just like it's smell and matched with an invigorating high).
The only reason I didn't give them a 4 star rating on price, ($25 gram) was because the owner only charged me $35 for both grams and even through in a free joint for my first time!!! Now thats compassion. Check this place out, it's definitely worth a visit..I'll be coming back soon to peep their concentrates and new strains.

Once verified, I was allowed entrance to their nug room where I was welcomed by two exuberant BT's and their chill owner. They gave me a breif rundown of their flowers, clones, and tinctures while I went over their top shelf strains(25/60). I ended up going with a gram of their PURPLE KUSH ( chunky nugs loaded with trichomes and that ever so familiar stench of purp...taste was a little mild, but the high was super stoney) and a gram of WILLY'S WONDER ( do yourself a favor and get some of this stuff..sugary buds with a potent fruity smell, tastes just like it's smell and matched with an invigorating high).
The only reason I didn't give them a 4 star rating on price, ($25 gram) was because the owner only charged me $35 for both grams and even through in a free joint for my first time!!! Now thats compassion. Check this place out, it's definitely worth a visit..I'll be coming back soon to peep their concentrates and new strains.

It's pretty much across the freeway from Mission Valley Mall, in a large building with the address (1333) clearly stated. You have to take an elevator up a floor and then it's just right around the corner to your left. Their waiting room was clean and tidy, though I didn't spend much time there as I was quickly verified and off to see their meds. Nice variety of herb to choose from with a $60 cap on eighths and even some 30/40 dollar ones too. I didn't really see anything too special and to tell you the truth after checking them out I began to focus more on their concentrates, which happen to be very nice and at a compassionate donation price (see review title lol). I ended up going with a gram of their OG Kush Kief and a gram of their Sour OG..just because I felt like I had to at least try SOME of their top shelf flowers..to make for a more "well-rounded review". End result, the Sour OG was decent, but not worth $20/60...(nice fluffy, light green buds with more of a light brown than an orange pistil color..I thought it lacked a bit in smell and WOW factor, the high was right on though) I made sure to smoke a couple bowls of the Sour by itself before I piled on some kief. The kief was bomb! It went perfect with the bud I got from there, it turned my average dank into some kill. I almost forgot to mention that they had a microscope attached to a little flat screen so you can check their strains for trichome count..nice addition. Oh and they gave me a free edible for my first visit, can't wait to eat it tomorrow.
