Cannabis 101

Your Guide to an Elevated Experience

At Euphoria, we believe that knowledge is just as important as quality when it comes to cannabis. Whether you’re new to the world of cannabis or looking to expand your understanding, we’re here to help educate, empower, and guide you toward the best experience possible.

The Basics: Understanding Cannabis

Cannabis is more than just a plant—it’s a complex and diverse experience. The effects you feel depend on the strain, cannabinoid content, terpene profile, and method of consumption.

THC vs. CBD: What’s the Difference?

🌿 THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol)

The psychoactive compound responsible for the “high.”
Effects can range from euphoria and relaxation to creativity and deep focus.
Used for both recreational and medicinal purposes.

🌿 CBD (Cannabidiol)

Non-psychoactive, meaning it won’t get you high.
Known for calming, anti-inflammatory, and pain-relief properties.
Often used for stress management, sleep, and general wellness.

Many cannabis products contain both THC and CBD, creating a balanced experience tailored to different needs.

“Every strain is unique, but they generally fall into three categories“

Finding Your Strain: Indica, Sativa, or Hybrid?

💤 Indica (Relaxation & Calm)

Best for winding down, pain relief, and better sleep.
Produces a body high that helps with stress and tension.
Think: Netflix, cozy vibes, and relaxation.

⚡ Sativa (Energy & Creativity)

Uplifting and stimulating, great for daytime use.
Ideal for creative projects, social settings, and focus.
Think: art, music, and deep conversations.

🔄 Hybrid (Best of Both Worlds)

A mix of Indica & Sativa, offering balanced effects.
Some hybrids lean more uplifting, others more relaxing—we can help you find the right one.

Not sure what’s best for you? Our team will guide you toward the perfect strain for your goals.

How to Consume Cannabis

There are many ways to enjoy cannabis, each offering a different experience. Here’s a quick breakdown:

🔥 Smoking (Flower & Pre-Rolls)

Fast-acting effects within minutes.
Classic and easily customizable based on dosage.
Best for those who enjoy the ritual of rolling or using glassware.

💨 Vaping (Cartridges & Concentrates)

A cleaner, smoother inhalation method.
Discreet and easy to control your dosage.
Available in various strains and potency levels.

🍬 Edibles (Gummies, Chocolates, & More)

Longer-lasting effects (2-6 hours).
Great for those who prefer smoke-free options.
Effects take 30-90 minutes to kick in, so start low and go slow.

🛁 Topicals (Creams, Lotions, Balms)

No psychoactive effects (won’t get you high).
Used for pain relief, muscle recovery, and skincare.

💧 Tinctures (Oils & Droppers)

Fast-absorbing and easy to microdose.
Can be taken sublingually (under the tongue) or mixed with drinks.
Great for consistent dosing and daily wellness.

Dosing & Responsible Consumption

Start Low, Go Slow
Cannabis affects everyone differently, so it’s important to start with a low dose and adjust as needed.

Microdosing for Balance

If you’re new to cannabis, start with 2.5mg-5mg of THC (especially with edibles).
Higher doses (10mg+ THC) should be reserved for experienced users.

Never Consume & Drive
Cannabis impairs reaction time and judgment—always wait at least 4-6 hours before driving after consuming THC.

Know Your Limits
Listen to your body. If you ever feel too high, stay hydrated, breathe, and rest—it will pass.
