Dabbing: A Beginner’s Guide

You never really knew how many different shades of gold you can make out of green until you’ve seen the cannabis concentrates section of a dispensary or a cannabis convention.

Seeing and smelling well-made marijuana concentrates for the first time may make you crave sushi if you happen to love it since wasabi is one of the only other things on this planet that resembles the texture of wax….besides ear wax of course.

You may have to remind yourself that shatter or cannabis dab oil is for vaping, and of course dabbing, but not licking raw with your tongue given how it comes in virtually as many light and dark golden shades and grades as does honey.

Seeing the strange exotic dab tools covered in bright, sweet, and aromatic substances may send your mind flashing back to memories of eating with chopsticks for the first time. The blow torch may make you crave creme brulee, cherries jubilee, or gourmet smores if the space you’re having your first dab in is clean and pleasant enough.

But enough waxing poetic (can you tell we love dabbing?), let’s get to the good stuff. [Read more…]

Blunt, Joint, Spliff: What’s The Difference?

The language of marijuana is a veritable goldmine of wacky verbiage. From airplane and angola to swag and sticky icky, there’s literally a slang term for every situation. Most of these terms can be used interchangeably as the mood hits, but some common words have very specific meanings and should be used only when the right conditions are met.

Case in point: the terms blunt, joint, and spliff. Along with a few others, they may be the most common words in the cannabis dictionary. But do you know the difference between blunt, joint, and spliff? The answer might surprise you.

Even though cannabis enthusiasts are a pretty laid-back bunch, using the wrong language can be a definite give-away that you’re inexperienced or “unedumacated.” The difference between blunt, joint, and spliff is a prime example. Sure, they both contain marijuana, but that’s where the similarities end. What’s more, there are some pretty distinct differences that set one apart from the other.

To illustrate, it’s like the difference between a car and a truck. Yes, they both have four wheels and an engine, but you’re going to get some pretty strange looks if you point at a Mazda Miata and call it a Chevy Silverado. The terms just don’t mix. The same is true for a blunt, a joint, and a spliff.

Not sure what makes a blunt a blunt, a joint a joint, and a spliff a spliff? That’s why we’re here. So sit back, relax, and prepare to be informed. [Read more…]

18 Surprising Benefits Of CBD Gummies

CBD gummies

How about a bit of history before we begin? No, no, no, don’t go away! It’s relevant. We promise. So let’s talk gummies.

The first gummy candy (shaped like bears) was invented in Germany almost 100 years ago. Seventy years later, in the late 1990s, two natural-foods advocates mixed up a batch of gummy vitamins in order to get their kids to take a daily multi.

Now it seems like gummies are everywhere. We’ve got gummy this and gummy that. So it’s really no surprise that sometime in the last five years, some canna-genius was inspired — probably in a haze of joint smoke — to combine CBD and gummy candy into the ultimate medicinal confection: CBD gummies.

At this point, you’re probably asking, “But why do we need another method of consuming cannabis?” Our answer? Because each method offers a number of different benefits.

So why exactly should you take CBD gummies? In this article, the experts at Honest Marijuana will show you 18 benefits of this tasty and chewy treat. Some of them might surprise you. [Read more…]

CBD Patch: The Ultimate Guide To CBD Transdermal Patches

CBD Patch

We here at Honest Marijuana love it when cannabis and creativity join forces. It’s the answer to our every “shipping” dream (cannativity? creatabis?) and has produced some truly unique forms of marijuana, like Thai sticks, moon rock, and purple weed. But nothing even comes close to the joy we feel when we think about CBD patches.

Though the CBD patch and the THC patch have only been around for a few years, transdermal patches have existed for almost 40 years. Way back in 1979 when dinosaurs still roamed the earth and kids had to walk to school uphill both ways, the FDA approved the first transdermal patch (scopolamine for motion sickness).

Other patches followed, but the most famous transdermal patch is the nicotine patch, which was introduced in 1991 to help tobacco users kick the smoking habit.

With the legalization of medical and recreational cannabis in the early part of the 21st century, the next logical step was the CBD patch. Now that it has finally arrived, we’re sure it’ll take the crown as the most famous transdermal patch of them all.

But what exactly are CBD patches, and how do they work? The experts at Honest Marijuana will answer that question and reveal everything you need to know about the newest and coolest way to get the CBD you need. [Read more…]
