Wanted to try weed for a long time but never got around to it. Do you guys have advice for first time users? I would like to try the kind that will relax me and possibly help with my migraines and stress.
One you need to setup, and smoke. The other you have to open the packaging (use scissors) and eat. Edibles take time to kick in. Bong is immediate high, but not long lasting
Go to a pot shop and talk to a budtender. It is literally their job to match you with the perfect product. Personally, for stress I like edibles that are either all indica or a heavy blend.
Try CBD flowers before diving into THC.
Eh, I probably should do my homework. What’s CBD and THC?
Yeah, you should do your homework on weed. But here's a small explanation; THC and CBD are in both marijuana and hemp. Marijuana contains much more THC than hemp, while hemp has a lot of CBD. THC is the main psychoactive compound in marijuana. It's what makes people feel "high." CBD doesn't cause that high. Instead, it's thought to work with other elements in the body linked to feelings of well-being. Both CBD and THC work with receptors that release neurotransmitters in your brain. They can affect things like pain, mood, sleep, and memory.
First time(s) are most likely not going to be great. It will take you few times to get a good experience. Start with really small doses and build your way from there.
Hey, you can get chocolate edibles from Denver. Highly recommended. It will take 45 minutes to kick in but after that it's like you being sucked into a void. Take it with the company of a friend who has previous experience with weed, on case things turn upside down, he/she will help you out
Uh, this is the type of thing that scares me. Why would I need help if I’m looking to mellow down a bit.
Beacuse it is the first time you are taking it. Different folks have diff experience. The first time I took it, I had tunnel vision and my friends carried me to the bed where I collapsed in a relaxed way. If you are alone, you may freak out with the experience. With good friends it's just better. It's not like talking a smoke, it's kinda different
Go for high CBD to THC ratio. E.g. 4 CBD to 1 THC which will be written 4:1. Try something other than smoking with tobacco. Oil with a battery pack is a good way to control dose. Start with 2 puffs and see how you get on. Or try gummies starting with 5 mg to 10mg total THC content. Read reviews on leafly to understand the effects. Have fun!
+1 to looking things on leafly
Thanks, I’ll a look.
Honestly go into a weed shop and talk to them, they’re usually very friendly. Also try CBD products, get a 40:1 ratio CBD tincture and see how it goes, more in line with what you’re wanting to get out of it.
Don't do it.
Why?
Causes paranoia. Wastes your time. It changes your mind man. Read reddit posts on mariguana. You lose motivation.
For first timers, do a 5 mg edible.

Do you write code and have direct reports?
You want an indica heavy blend, something like 70/30. Use a water pipe ("bong"). Smoke with other people you know what they're doing, and can teach you.
Is there benefit to using a bong vs edibles?
Eh. Some people say they get better highs, others say they get worse highs. Everything is dependent on you, your body, and your mental state. I recommend trying different methods of ingestion and see what works best for you.
