At Jungle Kingdom Flower, we believe that access to legal cannabis comes with a responsibility to use it safely and thoughtfully.
Start low, go slow. This is the most important advice for anyone using cannabis, especially edibles. If you are new to cannabis or trying a new product, begin with a small amount and wait to feel the effects before consuming more.
Edibles can take 30 minutes to 2 hours to take effect. Do not take a second dose because you think the first one is not working. The effects of edibles tend to be stronger and longer-lasting than smoking or vaping.
Our budtenders can help you find the right product and dose for your experience level. Never hesitate to ask.
Keep all cannabis products in their original child-resistant packaging. Store them in a secure location that is out of reach of children and pets. Cannabis edibles can look like regular candy or food, making safe storage especially important.
Store cannabis away from direct sunlight and excessive heat to maintain quality and potency. A cool, dark drawer or cabinet is ideal.
Cannabis impairs motor skills, reaction time, and judgment. Driving under the influence of cannabis is illegal in New York and dangerous. If you plan to consume, arrange alternative transportation ahead of time.
Use rideshare services, public transit, or designate a sober driver. Brooklyn has excellent public transit options. Our store is steps from the Nostrand Av A/C station.
You must be 21 or older with a valid government-issued photo ID to purchase cannabis in New York. We check ID for every customer, every time — no exceptions. This protects our community and ensures compliance with state law.
Do not use cannabis while pregnant or breastfeeding. THC can pass to the baby through the placenta and breast milk. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends against cannabis use during pregnancy and lactation.
If you have a history of psychosis, schizophrenia, severe anxiety, or other mental health conditions, consult your doctor before using cannabis. High-THC products in particular may exacerbate certain mental health conditions.
Cannabis affects everyone differently. Pay attention to how you feel and adjust your usage accordingly. If cannabis is making you feel worse rather than better, stop using it and talk to a healthcare professional.
Be cautious when combining cannabis with alcohol or other substances. Cannabis and alcohol together can intensify the effects of both, increasing the risk of nausea, dizziness, and impaired judgment. If you choose to combine them, significantly reduce the amount of each.
