What Are the Effects of Smoking Cannabis Flower?

When smoked, cannabis flower creates pleasant feelings of relaxation and creativity. The effects of smoking cannabis flower kick in almost immediately. When you inhale cannabis smoke into your lungs, your bloodstream absorbs the active ingredients from the smoke then delivers the THC directly to your brain. The effects can last for one to three hours, depending on the amount of THC in the cannabis flower.

What Are Cannabis Flower Strains?

Cannabis has three main strains, or subtypes:

• Sativa – typically provides an energizing effect that complements creative projects and physical activities
• Indica – typically provides a calming, sedating effect; many people use indica to promote sleep and relaxation, stimulate appetite, or ease muscle aches
• Hybrid – a combination of sativa and indica that will typically range from indica-dominant to sativa-dominant.

There are thousands of different strains with ranging levels of indica and sativa. Terpene profiles and cannabinoid content play a large role in the effects of these strains.

How to Choose Cannabis Flower?

When choosing cannabis flowers, consider the strain first. Choose sativa if you prefer clarity and energy, opt for indica for a calming “couch lock” effect, or hybrid if you want to be somewhere in between.

Think about the flavor and aroma too. Cannabis contains flavonoids, which are compounds that give plants their unique flavors and aromas. Cannabis flowers can taste and smell like berries, citrus, lemon or pepper, for example, or have a flowery, lemony, skunk or even diesel flavor and scent.

How to Smoke Cannabis Flowers?

There are several ways to smoke cannabis flower!

You can grind up the flower then roll it into a smokable paper joint, which is an excellent way to share your smoke with your friends. You can also roll ground cannabis into a blunt, which is like a joint except that you roll the cannabis up in an emptied cigar wrap or a blunt wrap. Pipes allow you to smoke on the go and without extra supplies beyond your flower, pipe, and lighter. Bongs provide the largest, smoothest hit, drawing the smoke through water to cool your hit.
