New to ordering cannabis products? Don’t know what to order out of the huge variety available to users these days? Don’t fret. Ordering cannabis delivery in Ventura County can be intimidating the first time around, but we promise it’s not complicated.

First-time users may find themselves overwhelmed by the sheer number of options for delivery. We also have many customers who previously used cannabis back in the day and are a bit wary about starting back up.

Here’s the thing: The world of cannabis has changed drastically over the years. The stigma of cannabis use has faded as more people become attuned to both its therapeutic and recreational effects. As a result, we have a LOT of cannabis products available through our Ventura County cannabis delivery service. And there is a vast range of uses.

If you’re new to ordering cannabis delivery in California, we’ve got your back. We’ll walk you through the basics so you can decide what’s best for you.

Let’s start by narrowing down why you want to use cannabis.

Relief or recreation?

Before settling on the perfect product for you, decide what exactly you want to get out of the experience altogether. Is it relief from a condition or everyday aches and pains? Or is it for the fun of getting high and feeling the stress melt away?

Decide if you want to experience the feeling of being high or if you’d prefer to maintain mental clarity.

If you don’t want to get high, reach for a low-THC, high-CBD product. Or you can apply a topical cannabis product directly to an affected area.

We recommend CBD for anyone who wants to benefit from therapeutic cannabinoids without getting high. There is a huge variety of CBD products to choose from, so narrowing down whether you want to get high or not is not the only thing you’ll need to do. You’ll also have to decide if you want to consume it orally, smoke or vape it, take a tincture, or use a different method of consumption.

On the other hand, if you do want to get high, whether you use cannabis recreationally or medically, you’ll want to reach for products with THC. And just like we mentioned before, you’ll still need to decide how you want to consume it.

Let’s take a look at the most common cannabis product types.

The different types of cannabis products

For those new to cannabis or who have not used it in years, the number of products available can be a big surprise. There’s so much more out there than just the plant itself.

Flower

This is probably what you think of when you envision weed. When you order from a California cannabis delivery service, you will notice “flower” listed as a category. This refers to the buds from the cannabis plant and comes in a variety of qualities.

The most common reason people select flower is to smoke or vaporize it. This provides nearly instant effects.

You can select indica strains for sedative effects, sativa strains for energizing effects, and even hybrids for balanced outcomes. And if you’re not looking to get high but still want to smoke or vape your cannabis product, you can reach for a CBD-heavy strain with low levels of THC.

Edibles

Don’t want to smoke or vape your cannabis but still want to enjoy the effects? Try an edible. There is a huge variety of edible products on the market from infused candies and sodas to baked goods and snacks.

Edible products take anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours to fully take effect. It’s why we recommend users start small if they aren’t used to these kinds of products.

Additionally, there are CBD edibles that may provide non-intoxicating therapeutic effects within the same time frame if you’re not interested in getting high.

Concentrates

If you’re new to cannabis, we recommend starting with edibles or flower before graduating to concentrates. This is because concentrates are significantly more potent than other cannabis products.

For medical users, concentrates are great because they provide quick and potent relief. And for cannabis users with high tolerances, concentrates are a great way to get as high as you want without having to blow through an entire stash of flower.

Concentrates come in a variety of forms, from budder and crumble to shatter and many others in between. The names typically refer to the consistency of the concentrated cannabis product. Typically, users will dab with concentrates, inhaling the vapor from heating just a little glob of the concentrate.

Tinctures

Tinctures are typically made by extracting the main components of cannabis in an alcohol solution.

You can choose between a THC tincture, which will get you high, or a CBD tincture which will not. Additionally, you can choose a tincture with a ratio of both cannabinoids for balanced effects.

Tinctures take effect within 30 minutes to an hour after ingestion, or within about 15 minutes if you take the tincture sublingually. Just hold the solution under your tongue for about 60 seconds and swallow to take a sublingual tincture.

Topicals

Topicals are great if you just want relief to a targeted area. There are a variety of products available that can be generously applied to a specific zone to provide localized relief.
