Cannabis product ratios refer to the proportional ratios of different cannabinoids present in a cannabis product. These ratios are used to describe the composition of the product and can help consumers understand the potential effects, flavors, and therapeutic benefits they might experience. Ratios are often expressed as a combination of cannabinoids and terpenes. The right ratio can vary widely from person to person, as individuals have different tolerances, preferences, and medical needs.

For example, a common ratio might be “1:1 THC/CBD,” indicating an equal balance of THC and CBD in the product. Another example is a terpene ratio, such as “high myrcene.” Yet the large majority do not state the quantity of the terpenes in a product unless it’s flower.

Micro dosing cannabis involves consuming very small, lower amounts of cannabis in order to achieve the subtle effects from cannabis products. The goal of micro dosing is to experience the potential therapeutic benefits of cannabis without feeling overly “high” or impaired. Micro dosing allows users to maintain a functional state while still benefiting from the plant’s effects. Cutting an edibles in half, taking less puffs of your joint, less drops of your tincture, are all examples of micro dosing.

Micro doses are usually much smaller than typical doses of cannabis. Micro dosing is highly individualized. What works as a micro dose for one person might be different for another due to factors like tolerance, metabolism, and sensitivity. Typically, a micro dose might be around 2.5 to 5 milligrams of THC or even less. For those with higher tolerances, 10milligrams might be suitable. This helps to find the lowest effective dose for the desired benefits.

Cannabis terpenes are fragrant substances present in the essential oils derived from the cannabis plant. These substances are responsible for the characteristic aromas and flavors associated with different strains of cannabis. Terpenes are not exclusive to cannabis as they can also be found in various other plants and contribute to the smell and taste of fruits, flowers, and herbs.

Terpenes play a crucial role in the overall cannabis experience, impacting not only the scent and flavor but also potentially interacting with other compounds within the plant, such as cannabinoids, to produce diverse effects.

Cannabinoids are elements of substances found in the cannabis plant. These compounds interact with specific receptors in the body, known as CB1 and CB2 receptors, in our endocannabinoid system. The affects you feel are majorly from the different cannabinoids reacting with your body and brain. Many of the cannabinoids do not produce an intoxicating effect. The most known cannabinoid is THC will does get you high as well THCV and CBN. CBD can help prevent the intoxicating effects that THC provides if a larger balance of CBD is taken at the same time. For example, a product with a ratio of 10:1 CBD:THC, with 10 parts CBD to 1 part THC is present.

Cannabis concentrates are highly potent extracts that are derived from the cannabis plant. These concentrates contain a higher concentration of cannabinoids compared to traditional cannabis flower. They are created through various extraction methods that separate the desirable compounds from the plant material, resulting in a more potent and often more flavorful product. Concentrates come in various forms, each with its own unique characteristics and uses. Due to their high potency, use them with caution.

Hash, kief, shatter, wax and badder, crumble, live resin, rosin, distillate, sauce or terp sauce, and THCA diamonds are examples of concentrates.
