How do Californians enjoy the benefits of cannabis?

California has seen just over a month of legalized adult-use, and trends have begun to emerge on how communities across the Golden State enjoy cannabis. A variety of  analytics on these trends have been compiled, some of which may surprise you.

 

Cannabis makes you social

 

Cannabis can help you connect with others by making it more comfortable to interact in social situations. The cannabis culture is largely rooted in sharing and socializing, according to Darren Roberts, the co-founder of High There!, a social media app that connects people with similar interests within the cannabis community. In an interview with Patrick May of The Cannifornian, Roberts said that “Chat” is the most commonly selected activity amongst app users. However, many prefer to pair cannabis and socializing in their home rather than in a busy public setting, according to data from High There!. Having a games night with friends, or watching a film with your partner are just some of the ways that you can enjoy cannabis without having to leave the comforts of your home.

 

California cannabis users are active!

 

“Food” and “Music” were the two of the most popular activities overall, but, “after that, Californians like to get out and enjoy their state’s exceptional outdoor opportunities. And if they’re not having a bonfire on the beach, they’re catching a movie,” said Roberts. In Irvine specifically, 77 per cent said they enjoy engaging in outdoor activities after consuming cannabis, which isn’t surprising because there are so many beautiful beaches and scenic trails in such a close proximity.

 

As mentioned above, many Californians prefer to stay away from public spaces when they consume cannabis. This may be attributed to some lingering stigma associated with smoking or using a vaporizer. If you want to enjoy the benefits of cannabis without worrying about what others might think about you, edibles provide a safe and effective way to enjoy discreetly; moreover, edibles provide a delicious way to consume cannabis, and there’s no need to worry about any additional harmful effects.

How to dose THC infused edibles (featuring This Cannabis Life)

Cannabis Edibles Dosage

Edibles can be important in helping you manage your overall wellness. Incorporating the right edible products that provide the proper dosage of THC, with no residual effects and simply taste great, can be immensely effective. They can help you manage pain, fall asleep at night, and generally make dealing with the regular stresses of life easier to overcome.

 

While cannabis is very safe, ingesting too much THC can cause discomfort. So, we suggest you start low and go slow.

 

Morgan English is a cannabis expert and founder of This Cannabis Life; she understands the challenge of dosing edibles.

 

“For me, edibles have been really tricky because I worry. As soon as I eat an edible I think it is going to hit me too hard… with 3Leaf each one is individually dosed at 10mg per serving which is wonderful. I can just eat it. Normally I feel it after 30 minutes. I don’t need to smoke and it gives me the same effects.”
