Visiting a cannabis dispensary for the first time can be an exciting experience. However, you might not be fully prepared or informed when you visit a dispensary for the first time. If you are to avoid making mistakes that could compromise your experience, it is important to have a solid understanding of what to expect from visiting a dispensary.

Will You Feel The Effects Of The Cannabis Immediately?

When using cannabis products, there is a misconception that the effects will always be felt almost immediately. While this may be true when individuals smoke cannabis, other products can take longer to produce a noticeable effect. This is particularly applicable with edibles as it can take your body's digestive system up to several hours to process the edible enough to produce a result. Unfortunately, some individuals will grow impatient and take more of their edibles before the original dose has had a chance to take effect, and this can lead to them consuming too much. Surprisingly, eating a small snack before taking the edible can help to promote the digestive process so that you can feel the effects more quickly. When you are using edibles or other slow activating products, make sure to space out the dosages to avoid taking too much of these products in a short time.

Do Different Cannabis Products Produce Different Effects?

New shoppers are often surprised by the range of products that will be available for them to buy from a dispensary. Furthermore, these products are often tailored to produce a specific result. For example, some of these products may be geared more towards pain reduction and control while others may be used to promote relaxation. By discussing your desired effects with the dispensary workers, you will be able to learn about the products that can achieve your desired results and effects.

Can You Buy As Much Cannabis As You Want?

As part of the laws that have legalized cannabis products, there are often provisions in place that will limit the maximum amount of cannabis product that a person can possess at once. Exceeding this limit can lead to the confiscation of the cannabis as well as fines and other penalties. While the maximum limit can vary from one state to another, the dispensary workers will be able to clearly explain these limits so that you can avoid violating them. In addition to helping you comply with these quantity regulations, dispensaries can also explain any packaging or other safety requirements, such as keeping these products in specialized child-proof bags.
