Edibles
Ah, edibles – the classic way to get high without smoking. For those unfamiliar, edibles are cannabis-infused foods that come in all shapes and sizes. From brownies to gummies, there is an edible for everyone.
So, how are edibles made? It’s pretty simple, actually. Cannabis is decarboxylated (activated) and then mixed through food or drink. The cannabinoids are absorbed by the digestive system and the lever converts the THC into a more potent form.
But beware, dosing edibles can be tricky. Start with a low dose and wait at least an hour before consuming more. It may take longer for the effects to appear, so be patient. And remember, never drive or operate heavy machinery while under the influence of edibles.
Some popular edible brands include Kiva, Wana and Cheeba Chews. So, next time you want to enjoy a sweet treat with a little kick, give edibles a try.
Tinctures
Tinctures are a discreet and convenient way to consume cannabis. They come in small bottles with droppers and can be added to any beverage or consumed sublingually (under the tongue).
Tinctures are made by infusing cannabis with alcohol or glycerin. They come in several varieties, including CBD, THC and hybrid. They are perfect for those who want precise dosing and a fast-acting effect.
Dosage guidelines for tinctures can vary, but a good rule of thumb is to start with a low dose and gradually increase it. Hold the tincture under your tongue for at least 30 seconds before swallowing.
Some popular tincture brands include Papa & Barkley, Mary’s Medicinals and Care By Design. So, the next time you want to consume cannabis in a discreet and convenient way, try a tincture.
Topicals
Topicals are a great option for those who want the benefits of cannabis without the high. They come in the form of lotions, balms and patches and can be applied directly to the skin.
Topicals are made by infusing cannabis in a carrier oil, such as coconut oil or shea butter. They can be used for pain relief, relaxation and even skin care.
Dosage guidelines for topicals are not as strict as other forms of consumption, but it is always best to start with a small amount and work upward. Topicals are safe to use as often as needed.
Some popular topical brands include Apothecanna, Mary’s Medicinals and Lord Jones. So, the next time you’re looking for a way to relax and unwind, try a lotion or balm with cannabis.
Evaporators
Vaporizers are a cleaner and more efficient way to consume cannabis. They come in two forms: dry herb and concentrate. Vaporizers for dry herbs use ground cannabis buds, while vaporizers for concentrated cannabis extracts such as wax, shatter or oil.
Vaporizers work by heating the cannabis to a temperature that releases but does not burn the cannabinoids. This results in a cleaner and gentler high than smoking.
There are many benefits to using vaporizers, including less smell and more efficient use of cannabis. In addition, they are a great option for those who want to be discreet.
Dosing guidelines for vaporizers can vary, but it is always best to start with a low temperature and work up slowly. Different vaporizers may have different temperature settings, so be sure to read the instructions.
Some popular brands of vaporizers include Pax, Storz & Bickel and Dr. Dabber. So, the next time you want to consume cannabis in a clean and efficient way, try a vaporizer.
