‘What’s the best marijuana for 420 2022 in Phoenix?’ It’s exotic flower, bargain edibles, plus crazy strong dabs and infused pre-rolls. (Leafly)

Happy 420, Phoenix weed smokers!

Ya’ll have come so far in so little time: from a pretty tightly controlled medical marijuana state to a full-on legalization bastion beginning in 2021. Today, all adults 21+ have every type of cannabis modality—flower, extracts, edibles, even hot sauce.

California’s finest ideas have rolled east. Major brands like Alien Labs, Wyld, and Kiva have branches in Arizona. Arizona has world-class indoor growers, and its extract-makers are dialing in the latest live rosins, just like Cali’s heads. Phoenix pot prices can get competitive, especially in edibles.

Phoenix’s dozens of world-class dispensaries stand ready for 420 with designer flower, solventless carts, trendy edibles, and outrageous infused pre-rolls. Skip the line with delivery or in-store pickup for these editor’s picks.

Hot flowers at Harvest HOC

Harvest HOC of Phoenix might be among the most well-stocked shops in Phoenix, with 1,180 items, including 267 flowers to choose from.

You don’t see this very often—ball out with a $240 eight-ounce of cold cured live rosin from Drip. That’s 3.5 grams of fresh frozen Strawberry Shortcake x Snoopdawg that got ice water hashed and rosin pressed into an extract worth more than gold.

For flowers, on the top shelf sits Alien Labs’ Xeno eighth at $70, or the strain Atomic Apple. If you want to taste the flavors of 2022, you gotta pay up.

Get all the Connected Gelonade goodness in a smaller value format with $110 quarter-ounce of smalls. 22Red’s Donny Burger is a good splurge at $60. Shango’s Gelatti eighth at $55 also sounds nice.

Vital Sensi Stripes

Slightly sour and fully infused, these tasty Sensi Stripes from Vital deliver 10mg of THC with a fast onset of effects thanks to nanoemulsification—a process that makes cannabinoids tiny and water-soluble so that they can be absorbed more quickly than with traditional edibles. The sugary coating and texture are meant to take you right back to your favorite gummy worm, and you can expect made-from-scratch quality and natural flavoring. Vital is sweetening the deal this 420 with BOGO sales on all Vital Sensi Stripes and German-style Gummies at Zen Leaf dispensaries in Arizona on 4/20/2022.


Cart Nirvana found

It’s a golden era for cannabis vaping. Over at Nirvana Center in West Phoenix, there are 179 cartridges alone. We gravitate toward the high-end, like the High-Grade AZ Sauce Cart in White Tahoe Cookies. Sauce carts have more terpenes, and thus flavor and effects than a regular distillate cart.

Or go solventless in a cart format with DRIP Oils’ live rosin Gelato 41 Bacio cart. Live rosin gets extracted from fresh-frozen, ice-water washed buds; other strains include Cookies n Cream.

If you are going to vape distillate, look at the Lemon Faderade from Timeless, or the Select Elite Super Jack for classic daytime effects, or the Clean Cart savory strain Meat Breath for something really weird and different.

Even better, the Item 9 Batter Up infused GMO x GMO—3.5g for $75, or the Packwoods OG Kush Blunt—2.5g for $59.

We’d also burn the Tryke Anti-Gravity preroll in Khalifa Kush for—$28 for 1.2g, or the Dr. Zodiak’s Moonrock brand Peanut Butter Souffle for $32. Also where in the world will you ever see something as crazily named as the Core Concentrates Batter Blunt 2×1 OG#19—2g for $42. Those are all wild joints for 4/20.
