Cannabis Positive Effects

Marijuana provides users with a wide range of therapeutic benefits. Effects will be different depending on the weed strain and the user.  Indica flowers tend to leave the user more relaxed and mellow, whereas Sativa dominant strains often result in a more upbeat and cerebral experience. Beyond that, while using cannabis, there are other feelings and sensations that you might experience. They are:

• A general feeling of giddiness or excitement
• A pleasurably heightened perception of the things around you That is, you might generally feel more sensitive to light, sound, smells, etc.
• An increased appetite. This isn’t exactly as good as feeling like you’re on top of the world. But it isn’t a bad thing either.

Cannabis Medical Benefits

Being smoked for centuries for their medicinal properties, cannabis buds are highly aromatic and flavorful and come in a wide variety with thousands of different strains. In general, many medical marijuana patients use cannabis to ease stress and pain, and others use cannabis to promote hunger and induce sleep. Sativa strains can help with things such as anxiety.  Indica strains are often used as night time weed and help treat things such as trouble sleeping.

Different Types of Cannabis 

There are literally thousands of different marijuana strains and within each strain are different qualities of buds that range from top shelf premium marijuana to cheap weed.

The 3 main categories of cannabis are:

Indica Strains

Indica weed is more of a body buzz type of high that promotes heavy sedation, euphoria and sleepiness. They are generally used during the night.

Sativa Strains

Sativa weed is more of a heady and uplifting experience and is typically a day time or afternoon cannabis strain.

Hybrid Strains

Hybrid strains are the best of both worlds.  They generally possess a nice balance between the Indica and Sativa effects.

Cannabis Flowers Vs Cannabis Concentrates:  

Marijuana flowers are much less potent than concentrates. It is recommended for newcomers to get their feet wet in regular cannabis before moving on to weed concentrates.

Cannabis Flowers Vs Weed Edibles:

Cannabis edibles are much more potent and should be taken with care. Since cannabis edibles are ingested, they react differently to receptors, often resulting in more intense and longer couchlock sensations.

How to Grow Cannabis?

Marijuana is an easy plant to grow—it is a “weed,” after all! You just need some decent soil (or alternate growing medium), fertilizer/nutrients high in nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), and a good source of light, and then you’re ready to go! You might get lucky the first time, but improved experience and better equipment will likely lead to a more premium weed.

How to take Cannabis?

There are many different methods to pump yourself full of THC. Smoking, weed in a joint, bong, pipe or dry herb vaporizer are the most common. But you can also turn cannabis buds into concentrates and infuse the THC into food to create edibles. But beyond these, there are various other ways to get the good stuff into your system. Each method has its own benefits. So, if you want to feel one wave after another or want the rush all at once, there’s something for you. To help you understand some methods, here are the top ways to consume cannabis.

1.    Smoking

Let’s take a wild guess and say this is the one you’re most familiar with. To break it down, this method involves inhaling cannabinoids that have been vaporized after burning them; some people use pipes, others use paper-wrapped joints. Another way to smoke cannabis is to use a bong, a portable variation of a hookah offering a water chamber. For those who prefer a more old-fashioned option, there are also tobacco-leaf-wrapped blunts. Compared to other methods, smoking cannabis enables you to experience all the benefits in just a few minutes.

2.    Vaporizing

This method involves heating the cannabis to temperatures of about 160 – 190 degrees Celsius, causing the main psychoactive ingredients, among others, to vaporize/evaporate. Unlike smoking, it doesn’t burn the plant material, and the vapor is inhaled to achieve feeling high. Some might say this is a healthier option because it doesn’t involve inhaling smoke directly into your lungs—but little is known about this claim. Nevertheless, cannabis isn’t so dangerous, regardless of how it is taken.

3.    Tea

A method that involves making cannabis into tea and drinking it. A key factor to this method is that you might not get as high as you’d want since THC is an oil-based component, meaning it isn’t very water-soluble. As such, it might not efficiently dissolve into the tea. Yet making the tea is simple enough, so it’s worth a shot. Simply add cream or milk (any milk except skimmed) to hot water, and add your cannabis.

4.    Capsules

This form of consumption is often more medicinal than recreational. It typically contains a substantial quantity of cannabis oil alongside other dietary supplements. These CBD oil-containing capsules often have the same health benefits that cannabis offers.

5.    Edibles

Some people would much rather take their cannabis by eating it than any other. Requiring a little more effort, this method involves cooking your weed into your desired meal. This could be anything from brownies to cakes to cookies and virtually everything else in between. Besides giving your meal that edgy ganja taste, it guarantees to make you as high as a kite. Since the weed in this form needs to be digested alongside your food, you will likely experience your hits in waves.

How to Store Cannabis?

The best way to store cannabis is in an airtight bag/container in a cool and dark place. Light and heat degrade the marijuana’s terpenes and shorten its shelf life. It is advised to vacuum seal the cannabis and store it in the freezer in an appropriate bag if you wish to keep it for a long time.

Cannabis Side Effects:

The good news about cannabis is that serious side effects are rare. However, some studies show that marijuana has a dark side with potentially adverse effects. Dry mouth and eyes are the most common problems and are merely minor inconveniences. However, dizziness, paranoia, headaches, nausea, and anxiety are reported in cases of excessive use. But worry not; if you experience any of these side effects, they are often very minor and subside relatively quickly.

Overdose on THC?

Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is a naturally occurring element within the cannabis plant and has a considerably low level of toxicity. So low, in fact, that to kill a rodent by overdosing on THC, you’d have to feed it a truckload of cannabis. Of course, “truckload” is a bit of an exaggeration, but the quantity required for an overdose in rodents is incredibly high. In human beings, with our much larger size, metabolism, and tolerance level, it is nearly impossible for us to overdose on the plant. Frankly, there are barely any recorded cases concerning THC overdose. You’d likely have to absorb an actual truckload of THC for you to even get close to OD’ing.
