Take Your THC To Go
Discrete cannabis products you can bring anywhere.
Raise your hand if you’ve ever struggled to find a subtle way to have a cannabis break. Depending on where you are, busting out a grinder, flower and pipe isn’t always the most convenient (or discrete) way to enjoy cannabis. Or maybe you’re just not into smoking in general. Luckily for us, there are lots of ways to take your THC on the go - like quick-dissolve melts that can fit in your pocket. Here are a few alternatives - for when smoking cannabis flower isn’t an option.
Good Ole’ Vape Pens
Remember when you had to bring cannabis flowers, a pipe, or rolling papers to a party? Or even worse, carve out a make-shift pipe from an apple. While these are great memories and potentially useful skills, it’s not exactly convenient. While the process of selecting, grinding, and packing a bowl or rolling a joint can be relaxing or even part of the meditative aspect of cannabis …. no one’s got time for that when you’re running around at work, busy with the family, or just trying to get all your errands done on the weekend.
That’s where cannabis vape pens come in handy. I know, I know, vape pens are old news. BUT - I’m here to tell you that the kind of vape pen matters. When it comes to self-care, it’s always important to understand what you’re putting in your body. That’s why it’s so important to choose a vape pen that has no fillers, mixers, or potentially harmful substances like vitamin E acetate. Talk about bad vibes. One of the biggest gifts that mother nature has given us is a plant that works with our bodies to help bring us inner balance, peace, and (let’s be honest) a lot of fun. So keep it all-natural, the way nature intended.
Brands like midose. take the time to curate holistic blends using whole-plant cannabinoids, terpenes and botanical blends. midose. vape pens are also made with CCELL® technology, which means you won’t have to worry about burnt oils or leaky cartridges. So you can vape and thrive throughout your day - without worrying about drawing unwanted attention.
But if you’re trying to move on from inhaling cannabis altogether...don’t worry. There are plenty of enjoyable and discrete ways to get you high on the go.
New Kids on the Block: THC Dissolvables
Let’s talk about dissolvable THC, which can also be called “sublingual” - meaning, products designed to melt under your tongue and absorbed by your mucus membrane. This new wave of THC products is not only subtle, they are also fast acting and can be more accurately dosed. This is what makes dissolvables a great alternative to ‘traditional’ edibles. Other edibles can take 20-60 minutes (depending on your body) to take effect, which can sometimes feel a little unpredictable as you go about your day. And let’s face it…edibles don’t always taste that great. And a lot of them have extra sugar to mask the taste of cannabis.
Not to throw shade, but I’m not really a “traditional” edible kind of gal. The first time I ate an edible, it was cheesecake and I had no idea how much I should (or wanted) to eat. Yes, I know, there are plenty of edibles that have measured amounts of THC. But you can take the guesswork out of it completely, with dissolvable products like midose. melts. These fast-acting sublingual tabs are fast-acting and precisely dosed in smaller amounts. You’ll feel the effects in as little as 5-15 minutes. This makes it easy to be in control of your high. Take one, two, or three - depending on your goals and how you feel. So you can find your perfect dose - for heavy workloads, happy hours, or an outdoor adventure. Microdosing THC with smaller dosed dissolvables is a wonderful option - whether you’re new to cannabis or an OG fan. Curated to boost your mood, reduce stress or help you wind down for the evening, you can microdose midose. melts throughout your day.
Drinks Anyone?
If you’re keen on drinking your THC, you may want to add these to your bag.
Tinctures: These are a little less easy on the go - but are a great alternative to smoking. The main drawback with tinctures can be their taste. But that’s a personal preference. Tinctures will have a pretty fast effect - probably somewhere between a sublingual and edible. Just keep in mind that tinctures will need to be kept out of the light and in a relatively cool place. Pay attention to the storage directions. And ALWAYS remember to twist the top tight. The last thing you need is your bag or purse getting ruined by a leaking THC tincture - definitely not discrete.
Stick Packs...or water dissolvables: These are kind of like Vitamin C Emergency Packs...but, with THC. Stick packs are highly dissolvable powders you can add to your beverage of choice. These powders take effect pretty quickly, are precisely dosed, and depending on the brand can be either flavored or unflavored.
Liquid Cannabis: Well...it’s pretty much what it sounds like. Rather than adding a powder or tincture to your drink, you can literally just drink it. Most liquid THC is flavorless - so it’s easy to add to any beverage, smoothie, drink, or...soup? Whatever floats your boat.
Pro Tip: Cannabis Quality Matters
No matter how you decide to tote around your cannabis, the most important detail is the quality of the product. What does that mean? Unfortunately, not all cannabis is grown and harvested equally. As with all the food you eat, you want to make sure your cannabis is being tested for things like pesticides, molds, and bacteria. Make sure you know the ingredients. And double-check that products are properly tested.
And don’t forget to look for the terpene profiles! What are terpenes? Terpenes are aromatic plant compounds. They’re what makes flowers smell sweet, citrus smell zesty and lavender smell calming. Over 100 different terpenes have been found in cannabis - so far. Terpenes are what give each strain of cannabis its unique smell and flavor profile. Research surrounding cannabis has found that terpenes can have physiological impacts on your body. For example, the terpene Limonene is believed to help relieve stress and calm anxiety. And yes, Limonene is also found in citrus fruits like lemons and oranges.
Now go fill your go-bag with THC goodness and jump into whatever adventure the day brings.
