Budtender FAQ

Budtender Portal

We’ve asked budtenders- what are your customers most common concerns when buying flower? We have developed this page as a resource to answer those very questions as it pertains to our handcrafted cannabis.
What distinguishes Pioneer Nuggets flower from competitors?
We love flower. Crafted with hands-on attention and care, flavorful, smooth and consistent. Growing the best flower we know how is a passion and lifelong pursuit we promise to continue and share with you.
What are you up to?
We believe cannabis can enhance every part of your day. We have developed a system to help guide your cannabis experience driven by your activity or desired sensation. Our classification system takes Sativa, Hybrid and Indica to the next level by subcategorizing and introducing the major subsets of these classes. Classification is purely a guide as specific strains and their cultivated phenotypes will shift dependent on nutrients and growing environment. We take the time to comprehensively test and internally review our specific genetic tendencies. 
Sativas can be very heady, cerebral and energetic. Our Energy sub-class describes 80|20 and higher sativa dominance where the predominant effect will be energetic. Our Creative Focus sub-class describes 70|30 and 60|40 sativa dominance where creativity and hyper focus for chores or tasks are the major expected effects. Our Social sub-class describes 50|50 hybrids that promote a happy chatty high. Relax includes 60|40 and 70|30 indica dominant strains that are most effective for relaxation. Bedtime classifies heavy indicas with 80|20 and higher indica dominance that function well as a sleep aid.
Do you use pesticides?
Our indoor handcrafted cannabis is free of harmful pesticides. We use organic biological controls as preventative treatments for pests and pathogens in a method consistent with sustainable agriculture. We use a combination of herbal extracts and microorganisms to enable plants to utilize their own natural defenses. These methods coupled with the use of beneficial insects and environmental control keep our farm clean and healthy.
