Cannabis

This is the category for the cannabis flowers or buds that we carry.  We prefer to source organic cannabis whenever possible.

Cannabis refers to a group of three plants with psychoactive properties, known as sativa, indica, and ruderalis.

When the flowers of these plants are harvested and dried, you’re left with one of the most common drugs in the world. Some call it weed, some call it pot, and others call it marijuana.

Cannabis is usually consumed for its relaxing and calming effects. In some U.S. states, it’s also prescribed to help with a range of medical conditions, including chronic pain, glaucoma, and poor appetite.

Cannabis is made up of more than 120 components, which are known as cannabinoids. Experts still aren’t sure what each cannabinoid does, however the most commonly studied cannabinoids are CBD and THC.

Each has its own effects and uses:

  • CBD. This is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid, meaning it won’t get you “high.” It’s often used to help reduce inflammation and ease pain. It also helps with nausea, migraines, seizures, and anxiety. Researchers are still trying to fully understand the effectiveness of its medical use.
  • THC. This is the main psychoactive compound in cannabis. THC is responsible for the “high” that most people associate with cannabis.
