Navigating Your First Visit to Stash Master
Walking into a cannabis dispensary for the first time can feel overwhelming. At Stash Master, we’ve designed our Brooklyn locations to be welcoming spaces for both experienced cannabis enthusiasts and first-time visitors. This guide will help you prepare for your first visit to any of our dispensary locations across Bushwick, Bedford-Stuyvesant, Williamsburg, Clinton Hill, Brownsville, and Fort Greene.
Before You Arrive
Being prepared will make your first visit smoother and more enjoyable:
- Bring valid ID: You must be 21+ with government-issued photo identification.
- Bring cash: While we do offer ATM services, many customers prefer cash transactions.
- Consider your goals: Think about what you hope to achieve with cannabis (relaxation, pain relief, sleep aid, etc.).
- Research basics: Familiarizing yourself with terms like indica, sativa, and THC/CBD can be helpful.
What to Expect When You Arrive
Our dispensary experience is designed to be educational and pressure-free:
- Check-in process: Our friendly security will verify your ID before entry.

Finding the Right Products for Beginners
If you’re new to cannabis, we typically recommend:
- Start low, go slow: Begin with low-THC products and minimal dosing.
- Consider balanced products: Items with both CBD and THC offer more gentle effects.
- Explore consumption methods: Beyond smoking, consider tinctures, edibles, or topicals.
- Ask questions: Our staff is there to educate, not just sell.
