Memorial Day is nearly here, marking the unofficial start to summer in New York City. The city starts to feel more alive as the grills come out and the rooftops fill up. If you are looking to stock up on Memorial Day cannabis for the long weekend, Bud City on Fulton Street has a solid selection of flower, edibles, vapes, and pre-rolls to get your summer started right.
Bud City’s Top 7 Memorial Day Weed Picks
Memorial Day weekend is three days packed with summer celebrations. Make sure you have the right strains and formats to meet the vibe. Here are some of our favorite picks for the holiday weekend:
- Ruby Farms’ Ghost Trains Haze #2 Pre-Rolls: Seven pre-rolls of a nice sativa strain. Ghost Train Haze is citrusy and piney, delivering an uplifting high. It’s potent, though, so if you are new to cannabis, start with just a puff or two and wait for the effects to kick in.
- Pure Vibes’ Mango Live Rosin Gummies: Live rosin gummies preserve more of the plant’s natural terpene flavor, and the mango flavor here gives everything a tropical kick. These are good grab-and-go options to share when you don’t want to mess with hardware.
- Presidential’s Cherry Gelato Moonrock Blunt: If you want a premium experience, this is it! A hybrid blunt known for its slow burn and potent, layered experience. It delivers a balanced mix of calm, relaxed vibes with a happy mood and a light boost of energy to keep things uplifted.
- Revert’s Monster Cookies Kief Infused Ground Flower: An indica-leaning blend of pre-ground flower enhanced with kief for a richer, more potent smoke. It delivers a deeply relaxed, happy feel that gently settles into a sleepy, wind-down experience, perfect for slower evenings.
- Golden Garden’s Super Boof Pre-Roll: A sativa-leaning option with a bright, uplifting profile and smooth, flavorful smoke. It delivers an energetic, creative boost with focused, inspired effects that keep your mood happy and your mind engaged.
- Golden Garden’s No Cap Pre-Roll: No Cap leans hard into its Cap Junky roots with a gassy punch layered over sweet fruit rind and a funky onion edge that keeps things interesting. The high hits strong and euphoric, but never feels like it gets away from you.
- Revert’s Apple Fritter Kief Infused Ground Flower: This 14g kief-infused ground flower pulls from a sungrown hybrid cross of Sour Apple and Animal Cookies, landing somewhere between baked apple and a hint of cream in both flavor and aroma, with just enough earthiness to keep it grounded. It’s a layered smoke that doesn’t weigh you down.

Safe and Responsible Cannabis Enjoyment for Summer
If you are over 21, New York law allows you to purchase and possess cannabis products. There are a few rules to remember to keep everyone safe and legal, though:
- Public consumption of cannabis is prohibited in most public spaces (private property is best for a Memorial Day smoke session)
- Be mindful of guests who aren’t consuming cannabis, especially if kids are around
- Keep products stored out of reach and labeled clearly
- Arrange transportation for anyone consuming cannabis ahead of time
- Opt for formats like edibles and vapes to make things less intrusive for those who aren’t participating

Pairing Cannabis with Classic Memorial Day Activities
Want to pair a cannabis pick with your Memorial Day itinerary? The strain and format matter. Here are some of our suggestions:
- For an afternoon on the grill: Pick something lighter and easier to dose so the feeling doesn’t get heavy or slow you down. A single pre-roll shared with the group or a low-dose gummy is a good option.
- For long evenings with friends: Edibles are the way to go here. Take a sativa gummy an hour before everyone arrives to keep the mood social, or opt for an indica-leaning option once the crowd starts to thin, and it’s time to wind down.
