More About Donnie
Favorite Strain and Why
I have a special affinity for indica strains. Their calming and relaxing properties are a perfect remedy for my occasional sleep troubles. The soothing effect they have on the body is something I find incredibly beneficial for complete rest and relaxation.
Expertise Area
I’m planning to deepen my personal experience with marijuana in both smoking and edible forms by 2024. This will enhance my ability to provide more informed and experiential advice to our customers.
Fun Fact
Despite my outwardly serious demeanor, I’m known for my easy laughter and emotional depth. I often find humor in the smallest things, yet I’m equally moved by life’s poignant moments.
Best Cannabis Tip
For those new to cannabis oil, start with just 1-2 drops under the tongue. Spread it across the gums and wait 15 minutes for absorption. This method is particularly effective for brain and oral health treatments.

My leisure time is regularly spent watching movies and playing with my pets. These activities provide me with a sense of peace and relaxation.
