I think I might want to get a medical cannabis card

For the past couple of months, I have been thinking about getting my medical cannabis card.

I know that it will be a pain to get it done but I think that I need to just go ahead and do it anyway.

Most of the time, I have to take medication for the chronic pain that I am in because of past surgeries that I have had to have done. I’m just really tired of taking all kinds of different pain medications every night in order to get to sleep, though. I read somewhere that medical cannabis is really great for helping people get to sleep when they have trouble with it and that’s why I want to start using it. I read that medical cannabis helps with sleeping issues and then you don’t have any kinds of side effects from it, either. That sounds really good to me! I hate having all of the side effects that come from the prescription medications that I have been taking, that’s for sure. Apparently, with medical cannabis, you can achieve all kinds of great results. Along with helping to get rid of problems that come along with chronic pain, medical cannabis helps with sleeping and with anxiety problems. I really feel like medical cannabis is going to be a great alternative treatment for me because I am ready for a change. I wish that there was a medical cannabis dispensary close by to where we live, though. That’s going to be an issue for me once I get my medical cannabis card!

Unique benefits of tinctures

Tinctures are a wonderfully versatile, beneficial and unique cannabis consumption method. They are a type of extract that are made by stripping away the excess plant matter and leaving behind the most valuable cannabinoids and terpenes. The dispensary typically offers tinctures in indicas, sativas, hybrids and full-spectrum CBD options. They are sold in compact glass bottles that feature a handy dropper. Everything necessary for consumption is included. Determining a precise dosage is especially easy. The ideal dose depends on personal preference, tolerance and objectives. If the tincture is intended to help with sleep, a single high dose is good for promoting sedation. If the purpose is for treating pain throughout the day, it can be better to use multiple microdoses. Starting with a low dose is always recommended. Most tinctures are available in a one fluid ounce bottone. One full dropper equals one milliliter. Beginning with a quarter of a dropper is a great way to get familiar with the dropper. Use the dropper to place the tincture under the tongue and wait thirty seconds for the cannabinoids to be absorbed before swallowing. The absorbent tissues or mucous membranes under the tongue work to send the cannabinoids, such as THC and CBD, into the bloodstream directly. Since this method doesn’t involve cannabinoids passing through the stomach or liver, the effects kick in quite quickly. Tinctures usually take effect within fifteen to thirty minutes. If added to food, the effects will take longer to be realized. The portability, discretion and simplicity of tinctures make them a great choice for the newbie to cannabis as well as the well-seasoned expert. They are an ideal option for recreational use and an active lifestyle and also often beneficial as a medicinal remedy.

Checking for live resin quality

Cannabis continues to grow in acceptance and popularity, creating a multi billion dollar industry.

The rapidly increasing demand has led to new cannabis farmers and producers entering the market.

While the majority of the products sold at the local dispensary are carefully curated and exceptional, I’m always watchful of poor quality. I realize that the industry is still relatively new. Regulations are gradually evolving. I typically shop for cannabis resin, which is a semi-solid to solid substance that is dark brown and rather sticky. Resins are found on the trichomes that cover the surface of cannabis buds. The trichomes are responsible for the cannabinoids and terpenes. Because of this, resins are especially desirable. Authentic resin is typically much more expensive than dried flower. If I come across cheap resin, I know that it’s poor quality. However, a smaller quantity is required. True resin delivers THC potency anywhere between 50% and 95%. It doesn’t take much to deliver intensive effects. For me, it’s all about purity. I am willing to pay more for premium cannabis extracts. I look for a light golden color of oils and concentrate. I check that the product has been lab tested and verified. I always ask for recommendations from the budtenders at the dispensary. They are always knowledgeable in the products and often have firsthand experience. I’ve also gotten familiar with the names of reputable producers of concentrates and my favorite strains. My local dispensary is strenuous in its standards for excellent live resin. The flavor profiles and aromas are preserved through a proper extraction process. It is important that the plant material is kept cool and never exposed to temperatures above 65 to 70 degrees.

Looking at hiring software for cannabis dispensaries

I finally got to a leadership position within a cannabis dispensary.

I started as a lowly budtender but I was dedicated to my position.

I tried to take any shift that my manager needed filled and educated myself immensely on cannabinoids and terpenes and their effects on various ailments and disorders. It didn’t take long for my managers to take notice. I remember filling in for an older employee when they had to be at the hospital for their wife delivering a baby, and my boss was really happy with my positive attitude. He asked me on a number of other occasions to fill in under similar circumstances and I was happy to oblige. It’s easier being in this position when you’re young and without any family commitments or responsibilities. It definitely paid off because now I’m a manager at the same cannabis dispensary. Unfortunately, I have to do things I never expected, like hiring employees. We are using a special hiring software that is made for cannabis dispensaries, but I’m not always the best person when it comes to learning new software. With enough Youtube videos and internet guides, I was able to learn the software eventually. It’s supposed to make the process of hiring new employees to the cannabis dispensary easier than before. I’m still not sure how I feel about the cannabis dispensary hiring software, but I use it regardless. I know my managers want me to learn all of the software that comes with working at a cannabis dispensary. It takes time but it’s worth the effort I put in by the end.

A special meal at the cannabis cafe

For our anniversary, my partner booked us a table at the most exclusive restaurant in town.

She had made the reservation three months earlier, however never told me about it so it could be a surprise for me.

This locale is incredibly busy, and it takes that long just to get a table for dinner! When he told me that my buddy and I were going to the cannabis cafe for our large dinner, I was beside myself with excitement. I had been wanting to go there ever since it opened last year, however as I said the seats were highly in demand, dressed to the nines, my partner and I took an Uber to the cannabis cafe for the meal of a lifetime. My nice friend and I knew better than to drive, because the meal would involve so numerous cannabis products it would be illegal and dangerous for us to drive back condo afterward. The first course was a light appetizer of a crab salad, with a dusting of crystalized cannabis over the top of it. I couldn’t detect a hint of marijuana flavor in the salad, however by the time I finished eating it I was already buzzed. The main course was a pan-fried fish filet, accompanied by a yellow sauce that blended three odd cannabis strains along with pine nuts and herbs… For dessert my buddy and I had a marijuana sorbet topped with caramel made from cannabis oil. The meal contained so much cannabis that I was still high when I woke up the next day! I don’t even remember taking an Uber back condo from the cannabis cafe.
