While cannabis products offer similar psychoactive chemicals and properties, there is a variety of methods for consumption. You want to be sure of dosage and safety. You want to be prepared and confident in your decisions. We’ve provided some information here to get you started.
- Pipe – For inhaling the smoke from dead cannabis flower, pipes come in a range of materials, sizes and shapes. They are typically made of glass.
- Bong – Normally made of glass for better quality, bongs are similar to pipes and consist of a mouthpiece, down-stem and slide/bowl. You light the cannabis and once the bong starts to percolate, smoke travels through water, allowing you to inhale.
- Joint/blunt – Rolled flower simply needs to be lit and inhaled.
- Vape – Rather than combustion to deliver the cannabis, vaporization uses lower heat to create vapor from the flower that is inhaled.
- Edibles – A wide selection of cannabis infused cookies, brownies, drinks and more offer a delicious, potent alternative to smoking.
- Tinctures – With an effective dosage that is much smaller, sublingual cannabinoid absorption is far quicker than more traditional consumption methods.
- Concentrates – High in total cannabinoids, concentrates are much stronger than flower and it’s best to start small.
- Dabbing – Rather labor intensive, dabbing offers complete control over a process where concentrates are heated on a hot surface, often a nail, for inhalation.
- Dab pen – For this portable option, water filtration cools the smoke to make it more enjoyable.
- Vape pens – Portable enough to fit inside your pocket, vape pens minimize the odors of smoking oils for a very discreet consumption method.v
