Cannabis Strains for Every Jersey City Mood

Breakdown: Sativa, Hybrid, and Indica

While other cannabis attributes can dictate the effects of specific strains, dispensaries commonly categorize flower by sativa, indica, and hybrid. These are genetic markers describing physical plant differences, along with distinct benefits each strain type typically offers.

Visit the Liberty Science Center and its Interactive Exhibits

• LSC is a 300,000-square-foot learning center located in Liberty State Park on the Jersey City bank of the Hudson near the Statue of Liberty.

Shop and Explore Downtown Jersey City

• If you’re up for a bit of variety, there’s plenty to explore Downtown. Take it easy with a stroll as you admire the many gorgeous murals or soak in the cultural attractions, including the Jersey City Museum and the Hudson and Manhattan Railroad Powerhouse.

• You’ll also find plenty of local and commercial shops if you’re looking for some retail therapy, not to mention a collection of stellar restaurants to satisfy your cravings.

Try a balanced hybrid: An even-keeled hybrid is the perfect pairing for your downtown adventures. The more relaxing indica effects will offer some calm and ease to combat some of this area’s more stimulating qualities. Still, the sativa-specific effects will keep you moving with a euphoric sense of happiness and curiosity as you traverse this city center.
