Cannabis has been getting a lot of coverage in recent years. A lot of people have been curious about its use but are afraid to give it a try. Trying new things can be scary, but going into it with a bit of knowledge can help ease your mind.

Tips For A Good First Experience

There are a few things that any first-time cannabis user should keep in mind. These tips will help ensure that you are getting the best first experience possible.

Moderation is so important when you’re experimenting with cannabis for the first time. Many new users can be deterred from trying cannabis a second time simply because they used too much. Anything used in excess can cause undesired results. Cannabis is no different.

Another thing to consider is whether you are smoking the flowers of the plant, or ingesting it in some kind of edible. Smoking will affect you more quickly, whereas eating an edible will take time to cause any psychotropic effects. Being patient after eating the recommended amount of an edible is important.

Now that you know how to approach your first time we can talk about the different strains you may come into contact with.

Different Strains

When discussing strains, it can be a bit overwhelming. There are nearly 800 named and recognized strains of cannabis at the moment. The number of these strains is growing every day.

The different strains of cannabis can affect people in different ways. Strains like Sour Diesel is known to make you feel energetic. Northern Lights, on the other hand, makes users feel more relaxed. There are also several hybrid strains like OG Kush and Headband that can affect the user in either of these ways

Figuring out what kind of experience you want for your first time is much easier when you understand how different each strain can be. Educating yourself is a great way to reduce any anxiety you may have about your first time with cannabis.

The strain can be an important thing to consider, but it’s easier to just compare the differences between the two main cannabis types.

Comparing Cannabis Types

These categories of cannabis fall on opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to their psychotropic effects on users.

Indica strains are known for their relaxing high. If you are looking for a strain to help with your insomnia, or lower your stress levels, this is the type of cannabis you’re looking for.

Sativa strains are known for their energizing high. Some of these strains can sharpen your focus and keep you going throughout the day. Not your best option for getting sleep, but it is the way to go if you have things to do afterward.

Both categories of cannabis can be utilized in different ways depending on what you need for that particular moment in your day. Let’s focus a little more on Indica though.

Benefits

Do you have trouble falling asleep? Are you under a lot of stress? Are you experiencing pain and tired of the pills you take to deal with it? Indica strains are known to help you deal with all of these problems.

This cannabis type is referred to by many users as “sleepy weed”. It relaxes the muscles which can help with pain and can help you get that night of sleep you’ve been searching for. Many strains can help you deal with any stress you may be experiencing as well.

The results you get from the consumption of cannabis varies from person to person. You should always take it slow at first because regardless of the strain you choose for your first experience, using too much can cause unwanted effects.
