In the growing world of dispensaries, cannabis products, and medicinal marijuana, there are now dozens of ways to ingest cannabis. Whether you want to use oral methods by smoking joints, using bongs, packing bowls, or lighting blunts, or you would instead use CBD-heavy topical creams, oils, ointments, or gels, reaping the benefits of cannabis can come in various forms.
When deciding how to ingest cannabis, you probably want to begin with a starter method that is easy to set up, simple to use, and prevents any risks or dangers of using complicated accessories. For example, using dab rigs and e-nails can be confusing and hard to master during your first experience, so choosing a beginner-friendly method is a wise choice.
Let’s see how you can use a vaporizer method that provides a smooth hit and long-lasting flavour.
How do I use vape cartridges?
First, we need to know what a vape cartridge is and where you use it. A vape cartridge is a glass cartridge that contains cannabis oil with varying levels of cannabinoids and terpenes from the cannabis plant. Most vape cartridges have high THC content, which provides the psychoactive effects of cannabis, whereas some have a 1:1 ratio of THC and CBD together.
Benefits of vape cartridges
When choosing to vape over other weed consumption methods, some users select vape cartridges for the following benefits:
- Ease of use – vape cartridges are easy to use with vape pens and require minimal effort.
- Portable – vape cartridges and pens are easy to carry around in your pocket, backpack, or even in your hand while out in public.
- Dosage – instead of worrying about the proper dosage, using vape cartridges ensures you can use a pre-loaded amount to prevent overdoing it your first time.
How to use a vape pen
Vape cartridges go together with vape pens for an easy and quick cannabis ingestion method. Make sure you keep these tips in mind when using a vape pen for the first time:
- You might need to click the on/off button multiple times to turn the device on for the first time out of the box.
- Make sure your vape cartridge is completely screwed into the battery to prevent any spills or leaks.
- Keep the vape pen in an upright position to avoid having the oil spill over the sides.
- Monitor the temperature to ensure your vape cartridge is not getting too hot and burning the inside oil.
How to refill a vape pen cartridge
Just like using a vape pen, refilling a vape cartridge is easy. You can refill the cartridge with fresh oil by using a syringe to inject new oil. If you don’t want to deal with this, use nonrefillable carts and simply rebuy once you run out of oil.
Conclusion
Using vape pens and cartridges is an easy, beginner-friendly, effective, and flavorful way to enjoy cannabis consumption. Instead of having smoke inhaled into your lungs or using topical creams for localized pain, using vapes are a great way to combine THC and CBD into one smoking experience.
