Issues To Avoid When Getting High

Whether you use marijuana for medical reasons, recreational purposes, or a combination of both, you can usually expect to get high off any significant dosage. As much fun as this sensation and lifestyle choice may be, however, it can also pose certain challenges from time to time. Take a look at some common issues that might harsh your mellow, along with some smart tips for avoiding or correcting them.

Getting Too High for Comfort

A miscalculated dose or stronger-than-usual strain can get you way higher than you planned or wanted. If you need to counteract the intense unpleasantness this situation can create, try taking some cannabidiol (CBD). This hemp derivative can often dampen the anxiety caused by too high a flight. Then sit back, relax, and practice slow, calm, deep breathing until you feel a little more in control.

Smelling Like Marijuana

You may love the aroma of marijuana, but others in your life (such as your employer) may not share your enthusiasm. If you and your surroundings smell like weed, the first thing you should do is turn on a fan, open a window, and get that smoke out of your residence. air fresheners, scented candles, and spray odor removers can help complete the job. To remove your own personal weed odor, turn to perfume, body spray, mouthwash, and/or mint-flavored chewing gum.

Displaying Red Eyes to the World

If you always show a pair of red eyes to the world, the world will have little trouble drawing the obvious conclusion as to the cause. Fortunately, you can find over-the-counter eye drops specifically formulated to reduce redness. If you don’t want to go this route, try applying a cold compress to reduce eye inflammation. As a last resort, keep a pair of sunglasses handy.

Not Knowing What to Do With Yourself

It’s all too easy to get so “couch locked” from a high that you can’t decide how to enjoy your session, with the predictable result that you end up doing nothing of interest at all. Instead of wasting a potentially good time, plan your activity in advance, whether it involves listening to music, watching TV, or spending quality time with friends.

Losing Your Supply or Equipment

Nothing tops the frustration of running out of weed or misplacing/breaking your gear. Again, the answer lies in thinking ahead by placing regular orders from your online provider and keeping extra papers, vapes, concentrates, or edibles on hand. Since there’s no time like the present, browse All Greens Dispensary’s online product catalog and place those backup orders today!

The Cannabis User’s Guide to Head Highs and Body Highs

The Cannabis User’s Guide to Head Highs and Body Highs


Medical science has come a long way in recognizing the many practical benefits of cannabis to treat a variety of health and wellness challenges, from chronic pain conditions to digestive troubles. But long before the doctors joined the cannabis bandwagon, individuals embraced the herb and its derivatives simply to get high. But what exactly does that mean? Would you prefer a head high or a body high, and what’s the difference anyway? Let’s explore these questions.

What Is a Head High?

Cannabis users describe a head high as one that affects your mental and emotional state more than your physical sensations or abilities. This kind of high may give you feelings of enhanced happiness, creativity, and energy that enhance your productivity, relationships, and motivation.

Head highs are commonly associated with sativa strains of the cannabis plant, although the other main category of plant, indica, can also produce or contribute to a head high. The presence of aromatic compounds called terpenes can also influence your head high. Limonene and caryophyllene are examples of terpenes that can give your mind and spirits a welcome rush of focus, energy, and poise.

What Is a Body High?

While a head high can get you going, a body high may stop you in your tracks — which might be perfect when you just want to chill out. Deep physical and mental relaxation is the name of the game here. Many cannabis veterans use the term “couch lock” to describe the feeling of just sitting immobile, with tingling extremities and a calm, untroubled mind. A serious case of the munchies can accompany a typical body high, so if you’re on a diet, you’ve been warned.

Indica strains have traditionally been known to produce a potent body high, although some sativa strains may induce lesser body-high effects as well. The main factor in this case is the presence of CBD alongside the THC in the indica. If you want to enhance your body high, look for (or add) terpenes such as myrcene, linalool, and pinene. Myrcene in particular is known as the “couch lock terpene.”

Find the Cannabis Strain That Meets Your Needs

Whether you want to expand your mind or relax your body, you’ll find the right solution for your needs here at All Greens Dispensary. We carry a full range of sativa, indica, and hybrid strains of cannabis products for both medicinal recreational use.

Here’s a closer look at the different types of cannabis products and how they can fit into your lifestyle.

Flower: The Classic Choice

Cannabis flower, also known as bud, is the most traditional form of marijuana. It is the dried and cured part of the cannabis plant that is typically smoked in pipes, bongs, or rolled into joints. Flower offers a rich sensory experience with a wide range of strains available, each with unique aromas, flavors, and effects.

Benefits

  • Immediate effects

  • Full control over dosage

  • Versatility in consumption methods

Pre-Rolls: Convenience and Quality

Pre-rolls are pre-made joints that offer the convenience of ready-to-use cannabis. They are an excellent option for those who prefer smoking but want to skip the rolling process. Pre-rolls come in various strains and sizes, making them a great choice for on-the-go use or social settings.

Benefits

  • Easy and convenient

  • Variety of strains available

  • No need for additional equipment

Vapes: Modern and Discreet

Vaping has become a popular method for consuming cannabis, particularly for those seeking a smoke-free alternative. Vapes use cannabis oil or distillate, which is heated to produce a vapor that is inhaled. This method is known for its discretion and ease of use, offering a cleaner experience without the strong smell associated with smoking.

Benefits

  • Discreet and portable

  • Less odor

  • Controlled dosing

Concentrates: Potent and Pure

Concentrates are highly potent cannabis products that come in various forms, such as shatter, wax, and resin. They are created by extracting cannabinoids and terpenes from the cannabis plant, resulting in a powerful and concentrated product. Concentrates can be consumed in multiple ways, including dabbing and adding to flower for an extra kick.

Benefits

  • Variety of forms and uses

  • Intense flavors and effects

Edibles: Tasty and Long-Lasting

Edibles are cannabis-infused food products that offer a delicious and discreet way to consume marijuana.

They provide a slower onset of effects compared to smoking or vaping, but the effects tend to last longer.

Benefits

  • Discreet consumption

  • Variety of flavors and forms

  • Long-lasting effects

Tinctures: Versatile and Fast-Acting

Tinctures are liquid cannabis extracts that are typically administered sublingually (under the tongue) or added to food and drinks. They offer precise dosing and are known for their fast-acting effects. Tinctures are a great option for those who want to avoid smoking or vaping and seek a discreet and versatile method of consumption.

Benefits

  • Fast-acting

  • Precise dosing

  • Versatile use

Topicals: Targeted Relief

Topicals are cannabis-infused lotions, balms, and creams designed for external use. They are applied directly to the skin and are often used for localized relief of pain, inflammation, and skin conditions. Topicals do not produce psychoactive effects, making them a popular choice for those seeking therapeutic benefits without the high.

Benefits

  • Non-psychoactive

  • Targeted relief

  • Variety of products

Understanding Marijuana Tolerance: How It Develops and What It Means

Understanding Marijuana Tolerance: How It Develops and What It Means

As the use of marijuana becomes more widespread and accepted, understanding how it affects the body and how tolerance develops is crucial for both new and experienced users. Marijuana tolerance can impact the effectiveness of cannabis and influence how much and how often you consume it. At All Greens Dispensary, we believe in educating our customers about all aspects of cannabis use, including tolerance. Here’s a detailed look at how marijuana tolerance develops and what it means for you.

What is Marijuana Tolerance?

Marijuana tolerance refers to a reduced response to cannabis after repeated use. This means that over time, you may need to consume larger amounts of marijuana to achieve the same effects you experienced initially. Tolerance develops because of changes in the brain’s endocannabinoid system, which is responsible for mediating the effects of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), the primary psychoactive compound in cannabis.

How Does Marijuana Tolerance Develop?

Marijuana tolerance develops through several biological mechanisms:

Downregulation of CB1 Receptors

THC interacts with the CB1 receptors in the brain, producing the psychoactive effects of cannabis. With repeated exposure to THC, the body compensates by reducing the number of CB1 receptors available—a process known as downregulation. Fewer receptors mean that the same amount of THC has less effect, leading to tolerance.

Desensitization of CB1 Receptors

In addition to downregulating CB1 receptors, chronic cannabis use can also lead to the desensitization of these receptors. This means that the receptors become less responsive to THC, requiring higher doses to achieve the desired effects.

Metabolic Tolerance

The body can also develop metabolic tolerance, where it becomes more efficient at breaking down and eliminating THC. This results in THC being less available to interact with CB1 receptors, necessitating higher doses to feel the same effects.

Factors Influencing Marijuana Tolerance

Several factors can influence how quickly and to what extent marijuana tolerance develops:

Frequency of Use

The more frequently you use marijuana, the faster tolerance is likely to develop. Regular daily use can lead to significant tolerance over time, while occasional use might result in slower tolerance development.

Potency of Cannabis

Higher potency cannabis products with greater THC content can accelerate the development of tolerance. Using strong strains or concentrates regularly can lead to a quicker increase in tolerance compared to lower potency options.

Individual Differences

Each person’s body reacts differently to cannabis. Factors such as genetics, metabolism, overall health, and even mental state can influence how quickly tolerance develops. Some people may develop tolerance rapidly, while others might not experience it as significantly.

Managing Marijuana Tolerance

Understanding how tolerance develops is important for managing your cannabis use effectively. Here are some strategies to manage and reset your tolerance:

Take a Tolerance Break

One of the most effective ways to reset your tolerance is by taking a break from cannabis use, often referred to as a “tolerance break” or “T-break.” A break of even a few days can help reduce tolerance levels, and a longer break can significantly reset your sensitivity to THC.

Rotate Strains

Rotating different cannabis strains with varying levels of cannabinoids can help prevent the rapid development of tolerance. This approach keeps the endocannabinoid system engaged and responsive by avoiding consistent exposure to the same THC levels.

Use Products with Balanced Cannabinoids

Products that contain a balanced ratio of THC and CBD (cannabidiol) can help manage tolerance. CBD can modulate the effects of THC and may reduce the rate at which tolerance develops.

Moderate Your Use

Using cannabis in moderation can help prevent the rapid buildup of tolerance. Instead of consuming large quantities regularly, try smaller doses and less frequent use to maintain effectiveness without significantly increasing tolerance.

The Implications of Marijuana Tolerance

Understanding and managing marijuana tolerance has several important implications:

Cost Efficiency

Higher tolerance means you need more cannabis to achieve the same effects, which can become costly over time. Managing tolerance helps you use cannabis more efficiently, reducing the amount needed and saving money.

Health and Safety

Consuming large amounts of cannabis to overcome tolerance can increase the risk of side effects, such as anxiety, paranoia, and cognitive impairment. Managing tolerance ensures you can enjoy the benefits of cannabis while minimizing potential risks.

Enhanced Experience

By managing your tolerance, you can maintain the effectiveness of cannabis and continue to experience its therapeutic and recreational benefits. A lower tolerance often means a more enjoyable and predictable experience.

Embrace an Informed Approach to Cannabis Use

At All Greens Dispensary, we are dedicated to helping our customers make informed decisions about their cannabis use. Understanding how marijuana tolerance develops and learning to manage it can enhance your overall experience and ensure that you continue to enjoy the benefits of cannabis safely and effectively. Whether you’re a new user or an experienced enthusiast, our knowledgeable staff is here to provide guidance and support every step of the way.
