Effects kick in within minutes — far faster than solid edibles — and last just 2–4 hours. More predictable and controllable than traditional edibles, they're perfect for social settings and new consumers!
Read MoreSmoking cannabis is a form of combustion, which, simply put, is the process of burning something. When you smoke cannabis in a bong, a pipe or a joint, we burn the tiny, resonous glands (called “trichomes”) and the plant material of the flower. But what’s vaporization? How does it work? And how can you do it? If you’re curious about how cannabis vaporizing works then you’ve come to the right place!
