shop for CBD in NYC?

I am looking to use CBD for a shoulder problem.(going to PT but it will take a while). I want to make sure that the quality is good. I have a feeling there is a lost of bogus stuff out there.
Anybody in NYC know a legitimate place to go?
Thanks

NYC pot dispensaries and got a lot of stuff like I see out here. Have you gone to dispensaries before? Have you ever used CBD oil?

The states make sure that the level of CBD and THC is measured for each batch. If you buy (for example) cartridges the amounts of THC and CBD are printed on each box and it is always slightly different (which is to be expected) but it is accurate. I bought oil for my dog there and they have different strengths. CBD:THC ratios like 20:1, 7:1 and 1:1. The people at the dispensaries are pretty knowledgeable. I saw that Weedmaps exists for NYC like it does here. They also have a rating system like Yelp. I would google it if I were you.

The dispenseries are for med marijuana, which is very restrictive right now. Though they are changing that later this year.

I'll check yelp again. Last time I did, I didn't find anything nearby.

Most of the places in San Diego are delivery and not actual stores. I have used both as well as medical (before it became recreational). I find most of the places advertise in the back pages of neighborhood papers like The Village Voice.

it's not legal here yet, just very limited medical. The Legislature and Governor are working on legalization.
