Innovations in cannabis consumption

Are you new to the world of marijuana and want to know what different ways are available for you to consume cannabis? Are you trying to avoid smoking weed because of its harmful effects on the lung and looking for a new method of cannabis consumption?

With the legalization of recreational marijuana growing since 2012, the cannabis industry is growing quickly and constantly adapting to new technology, to keep up to date. The marijuana industry has become incredibly popular and profitable in recent years and there is no surprise why.

As the world moves forward, new inventions for marijuana consumption are constantly showing up and tech has now gone far beyond just a joint, or even basic glassware. There is now an incredible rage for cannabis users to choose from when it comes to consumption, and many retailers to buy from, like Grasscity. With so many new products on the market, it can be hard to keep up, and many don’t understand how these products work. If you are curious as to what is new in the market, here is everything you need to know.

Edibles

Marijuana has been around for a long time, and this means that edibles have been around for a long time too. However, most people know edibles to just be baked goods like cookies or brownies. With the rise in demand in the market and the industry growing, there has been an incredible development in edibles and now there is a vast variety to choose from if you choose to eat your weed instead. Edibles are great for those who are willing to be a bit patient as they do take a little longer to kick in, but the wait is worth it because you will feel the effects much more than when smoking.

When it comes to edible, you can choose from your regular baked goods such as cookies and brownies, or you could try out one of the many new products such as candies, gummies, drinks, or even full meals cooked in cannabis oil or butter. The choices are endless.

Vaporizers

For those who prefer to inhale their cannabis, but don’t want to smoke a regular joint anymore, there are vaporizers. When it comes to vaporizers you can choose between regular concentrate vapes which make use of oils or juices, or you could use dry herb vaporizers that use the marijuana itself instead of a concentrate.

Dry herb vaporizers are revolutionary when it comes to the marijuana world because they allow for users to have all the benefits of smoking weed without any of the harmful risks that come along with it such as lung damage. These days people are choosing vaporizers over smoking because it gives off the same effect without any of the risks, and sometimes it can even be better because of temperature control settings.

Topicals

It is no secret that marijuana has been used in the medical world for a very long time. For centuries, marijuana has been used for medicinal purposes, especially to relieve pain and reduce inflammation. In recent years, it has also been developed into skincare that has been said to reduce acne.

Both marijuana and CBD alone are used in many topical products from moisturizers, gels, ointments, creams, and more as a way to directly target the affected area without any of the psychoactive side effects. This means you get all the benefits of it medicinally, without having to worry about it hindering your day.

Dab Rigs

Last but not least, we have dab rigs. This is yet another new introduction to the world of marijuana. Similar to that of a bong in that it is made up of a glass piece and the smoke is diluted through the water to create vapor, dab rigs make use of a concentrate in the form of a wax or oil, rather than the herb itself.

Dab rigs are also great for those who want to inhale vapor instead of smoke to avoid the health risks and lung damage. While dab rigs may seem complicated to use, they are incredibly easy once you get the hang of them.
