September’s Budtenders’ Choice: Highly Recommended Picks

August 28, 2025


Greetings, fellow students of the sesh.

I, Theophrastus, eternal friend to flora and humble servant of the sacred leaf, return once more to guide thee through Budtenders’ Choice, our monthly scroll of top-shelf treasures handpicked by Theo’s trusted tenders.

Now September arrives… the turning of seasons, a whisper of coolness in the breeze, and a perfect moment to reflect, reset, and re-up. This month’s selections are not mere products, but companions for the journey: strains to soothe your spirit, edibles to brighten your day, and rolls that bring pause to even the most hurried hearts.

So draw near, kind traveler. The sesh is ready. Let us see what our guardians of the green have chosen to celebrate the shift into fall.

Blue Nerdz by Niche

So, we’re all familiar with Niche by now, but I couldn’t help but shout out one of the newest strains we got in from them: Blue Nerdz. This strain is a nice, body-heavy indica with just over 30% THC and a beautiful terpene profile coming in at 3.35% total, so you know the potency, aroma, and flavor are all going to pack exactly the kind of punch you need after a long and stressful day.

Open the jar to find beautiful deep green buds with a hint of purple, all covered in sparkling trichomes. This strain will not disappoint in aroma, flavor, or effect. Get ready to sink into your couch and chill with Blue Nerdz 3.5g from Niche!

Ridgeline Lantz by Niche

To continue off Bethina’s opinion on Niche…

Okay, so first off… this strain is honestly such a vibe. 🌸 Ridgeline Lantz (Niche Hybrid) hits that perfect middle ground where you feel light, floaty, and chatty, but not totally spaced out. It’s kind of like putting on your favorite oversized hoodie.

The flavor is super smooth, with a little sweet earthiness that makes it feel cozy, but then there’s this subtle fruity undertone which I love. Perfect for a night in with face masks and binge-watching your fav show, or even just vibing on your own with some music and drawing.

The high feels balanced: you’re not couch-locked, but you’re also not bouncing off the walls.

Definitely a strain I’d keep on hand for winding down without totally knocking myself out. 10/10. No wonder we keep selling out of it 🙂

P.S. She’s purple 💜

Game Over 7G by Pete’s Farmstand

Chrome-finish pouch of Pete’s Top Shelf Indoor Flower Smalls labeled “Game Over,” containing 7 grams of premium cannabis flower.


The Game Over by Pete’s Farmstand, the 7g, was an excellent high and a perfectly balanced hybrid for all times of the day. It’s super good for listening to music and getting things done without feeling groggy.

The buds are super soft, not too sticky to where they get stuck all in your grinder, and the high lasted a lot longer than some other hybrids, so I didn’t have to smoke as much.

It smells great and has a very gassy, strong fragrance to it. The packaging is also really cute. It’s in chrome, which is adorable. The aesthetic of the packaging draws you in and makes you want to buy it.

Super lit. Would buy it again.

And so, with the leaves beginning to turn and the air thick with both harvest and hash, we bring September’s scroll to a close. These sacred selections were not chosen in haste, but through flame, laughter, and deep contemplation (often while horizontal).

If any of these blessed herbs or charming concentrates call to you, fret not… they await at njtheo shop, nestled among our Monthly Specials like trichomes upon the bud.

Until next we gather, may your glass stay clean, your lighters stay loyal, and your sesh be seasoned with good company and even better terps.
