Benefits of Cannabis Tinctures

If you are someone who is seeking the benefits of cannabis and in need of quick relief or relaxation, a tincture is one of your best options! We carry a variety of tinctures, including THC, CBD, 1:1 and strain specific variations, because we understand that everyone’s needs are different.

You can find all of our tinctures HERE.

What Are Tinctures Good For?

Tinctures can be used daily! Whether you’re suffering from mental or physical ailments, looking to ease period cramps, wanting to find deeper relaxation during meditation or calm your mind at the end of the day, tinctures are a quick way to find relief.

Tinctures are commonly used for:

• Insomnia
• Stress
• Anxiety
• Depression
• Muscle Spasms
• Restlessness
• Loss of Appetite
• Pain
• Meditation
• Relaxation

How Long Does It Last?

Tinctures offer some of the quickest onset of relief, as they are typically taken sublingually (under your tongue). Many feel the effects within 15 minutes and the full effects within 60 minutes. If you mix your tincture in a beverage, you’ll likely feel the effects as quickly as you would an edible (60-90 minutes). You should expect to be high longer than when you smoke or vaporize, but shorter than when you eat an edible.

How Much Should I Take?

The amount of tincture you take depends not only the tincture, but on you, your tolerance level and the desired effect. As a rule of thumb, we recommend starting with 10mg of THC or CBD and adjusting as necessary. Be sure to wait a full hour before taking a second dose. While you will feel the effects within 15 minutes, it can sometimes tak up to 60 minutes for the effects to peak. It’s best to be patient and wait to see how you feel before ingesting more!

What Does “Full Spectrum” Mean?

You may have noticed that our some of our THC tinctures are labeled as “full spectrum”. What does that actually mean?

Each cannabis cultivar has a unique cannabinoid and terpene profile; think of it like a person’s finger print! The collection of compounds is what contribute’s to a cultivar’s unique therapeutic effects. These compounds are created within the plant’s lipid and fat-based trichomes.

A full spectrum extract captures all of the therapeutic compounds of the raw cannabis plant, without the lipids and fats that hold those compounds together but do not have medicinal benefits. This typically happens the moment the plant is processed to preserve as much as possible.

Full spectrum concentrates deliver the full range of compounds that are produced within the trichome gland. The desire is to deliver therapeutic benefits while eliminating unwanted fats and waxes that hold the desirable compounds together.

What Tincture Should I Start With?

Again, this depends on you and the desired effects. Different tinctures will produce different results! We excitedly released our own line of tinctures this year, which we believe are perfect for beginners and seasoned enthusiasts alike. The great thing about tinctures is that you can adjust the dose to your ever changing needs!
