But what is it exactly? How is it made? And where can you find it?
Read MoreIn 1964, Israeli chemist Dr. Raphael Mechoulam became the first scientist to isolate THC and CBD from cannabis. This led to the 1988 discovery of the Endocannabinoid System (ECS) — the body's largest receptor system. In 1992, the brain's own natural THC-like compound, anandamide, was also discovered. Cannabis science changed everything!
Read MoreCannabis beverages use nanoemulsification to break cannabis oil into tiny water-friendly droplets, allowing faster absorption through the stomach lining. 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!
Read MoreCannabis is widely known for its recreational uses. But it also has mood-enhancing effects too!
At the center of cannabis’s mood-altering effects is the endocannabinoid system (ECS). The ECS is a complex network of receptors and chemical messengers found throughout your body.
Read MoreYes, cannabis expires — but proper storage slows degradation significantly. Heat, light, air, and moisture break down THC, terpenes, and trichomes in flower, edibles, tinctures, and vapes. Store cannabis in airtight containers at 50–60°F and 55% humidity. Freeze for long-term storage. Avoid refrigerating cartridges. Handle gently to protect delicate trichomes.

Read MoreThe right THC dose depends on your tolerance, consumption method, and goals. General guidelines: 10–20mg/day for THC, 2–10mg for edibles. Studies show lower doses (under 20mg) are often more effective than high ones. Vaping delivers significantly more THC than smoking. Start low, increase gradually, and stay under 45mg/day to avoid unwanted side effects!

Today April 20th is an international cannabis holiday celebrated worldwide!

Read MoreCBD edibles work by metabolizing cannabinoids through the liver, converting some THC into Delta-11 THC — a more potent, longer-lasting compound. Effects last 6–9 hours and vary by CBD-to-THC ratio. High CBD = minimal high; high THC = relaxation; equal ratios = sleep support. The entourage effect shapes your overall experience!

Unlike THC, it's produced when THC is exposed to light, heat, or oxygen. It's less potent than THC, acts faster, and is most commonly found in sativa strains like Durban Poison and Tangie.
