Weedmaps' 2023 holiday gift guide
Searching for that perfect gift for the special stoner in your life? Look no further. Weedmaps’ cannabis aficionados have compiled a list of unique gift ideas that will melt your loved one’s heart quicker than a jar of six-star bubble hash on a warm day.
Load up a bowl and check out the complete gift guide for every budget.
For the flower lover
ONGROK Toothless Grinder
While most grinders have sharp teeth that tear apart nugs, the ONGROK Toothless Grinder uses a flower-shaped pattern to mill the cannabis. This helps preserve the trichomes on the flower while giving the user more control over how coarse or fine they want their material.
Price: $54.99
G Pen Dash+ Vaporizer
While there’s been plenty of innovation in portable dab rigs, there haven’t been many new entries in the portable flower vape category that have caught our attention. That is until we tried the G Pen Dash+.
The sleek design, precise temperature control, and full-color LED display make this one of our favorite ways to vape cannabis flower on the go.
Price: $149.95
Vector KGM Urbano Triple Flame Torch Lighter
Does your loved one like to take fat, milky bong rips? This lighter is made for them. The torch design provides a hot and even light that can quickly ignite an entire bowl, making it perfect for bong snaps (smoking an entire bowl in a single inhale).
Price: $35
Rolling Trays
Depending on whether we’re rolling at home or on the go, we have a couple of favorite rolling trays:
For at-home Js: We love HousePlant’s All-in-one Rolling Tray — it comes with everything your loved one needs to roll a fatty from the comfort of their own home. This tray is gorgeous and made with hand-poured concrete, so you’ll never find two exactly alike.
Price: $550
For Js on the road: We always pack our smell-proof Revelry Rolling Kit when out and about. The compact design makes it easy to carry while also unfolding into a perfect layout for lap rolling.
Price: $60
Tulip Storage Lockbox
Designed for the organized toker, this 7-piece kit from Tulip has sections to store flower, joint tubes, carts, batteries, a slim lighter, and many other consumables or accessories. It’s also odor-proof and comes with a built-in lock to keep your loved one’s stash safe and secure.
Price: $195
For the concentrate dabber
Dab Temp Readers
One of the most important parts of an enjoyable dab is dialing in the correct temperature. Too hot, and you’ve got burnt terps, too low, and you’re wasting your precious dabs. Help your loved one leave the guesswork at the door with one of these reliable temp readers:
Both options have a flexible arm that adjusts to each rig and built-in alarms to alert you when it’s time to drop in your dabs.
Digital Dab Devices
There’s no better time to be a dabber, thanks to all the innovative devices that make consuming concentrates easier and more enjoyable than ever. Consider any of our favorite devices:
- Focus V Carta 2 — $375
- Puffco Peak Pro — $420
- Dr. Dabber Boost EVO — $219.95 (reduced price)
If the dabber in your life likes to take massive rips — also known as globs — you can scoop the Puffco 3D XL Chamber as a small gift or stocking stuffer. It features 78% more bowl space and delivers two times more vapor than the stock chamber.
Globmob Dunk Station + Glob Mops XL
Good dab hygiene is essential to keep bangers fresh and clean, and there’s no better combo than Globmob’s Dunk Station and Glob Mops XL cotton swabs. Your loved one will be singing your praises for keeping their tools clean and dabs tasting delicious.
Price: $21.74 (reduced price for Dunk Station) and $15.03 (for XL cotton swabs)
Moodmats
An essential companion for your loved one’s favorite dab rig, Moodmats help protect a glass base since micro-cracks can form over years of setting glass products down on hard surfaces.
These mats add a beautiful splash of aesthetics to any dab setup, and they come in many different sizes and designs, so you’re bound to find something they’ll love.
Price: Varies by mat
For the grower
Method Seven Optics
Does your homegrower love to take photos of their garden? Help take their garden shots to the next level with a Method Seven photo filter. It can bring out the true colors and beauty of their plants. And even if they’re not into photography, Method Seven also offers eyewear that will protect their eyes for many growing seasons to come.
Price: Varies (camera), varies (eyewear)
Cannabis seeds
Every great grow starts with great genetics, and one of our favorite seedbanks in the world is Royal Queen Seeds (RQS). Founded in 2007, RQS has an extensive genetics library that ranges from old-school classics, like Northern Lights and Sour Diesel, to new-school favorites, like Biscotti and Cereal Milk.
Two of our favorite strains this season are:
- Green Gelato: A potent autoflower descended from Sunset Sherbet and Thin Mint GSC — $34.50 for three seeds of Green Gelato
- Purple Queen: A beautiful and pungent feminized strain that combines highly prized Kush mountain varieties — $25.50 for three seeds of Purple Queen
Your loved one’s garden will be the envy of their friends with either of these strains.
