Is Cannabis Consumption Etiquette a Thing?

The legalization efforts in the US have brought a lot of traction in the cannabis industry over the past few years. The number of users has increased significantly, especially during the lockdown. People turned to cannabis to relieve their stress while they continued to endure the restrictions of the pandemic.

Both CBD and THC, the two most popular cannabis compounds, were opted for by users depending on their needs and lifestyle. While people were forced to consume cannabis, often alone at home during the lockdown, the trend changed in 2021. Cannabis consumption (recreational cannabis in particular) has become more of a communal activity as people prefer lighting up a pre-roll while they are with a fellow user.

In fact, this is one of the main reasons why different states are working towards the legalization of cannabis lounges. Illinois has already established one and is witnessing a stark rise in its popularity.

Now that cannabis consumption among other users is becoming a “thing,” it is about time that we talk about the unsaid etiquettes of consumption. In this article, we will talk about some manners and unsaid protocols of cannabis consumption alongside others. The goal is to ensure that users don’t make other users uncomfortable while consuming cannabis alongside others at a private party.

#1 Sharing is Caring

One of the most common ways users enjoy cannabis is by sharing a roll. The last thing anyone around you wants is for you to overstay your welcome with the pre-roll.

 No matter how great your story is, if you hog the pre-roll and don’t pass it along, people around you are bound to mind. The best way to go about it is to take the roll, enjoy a drag or two, and pass it along to the next person in line.

#2 Don’t Make a Decision for Others

Some people prefer taking even the last drags out of a roll, while others might leave the roll with a few puffs left. If you’re one of the latter kind, don’t make a decision for others by throwing away the pre-roll.

Some people might be looking forward to that last drag or two left in the pre-roll, and it isn’t polite to throw the roll away while others are looking forward to one last puff.

#3 Don’t Sit Idle

Networking has become more important than ever today, and the best way to do that is through communication. Private cannabis parties offer you the opportunity to join a group and enjoy a vaping session with others.

However, staying idle while sitting in a group of people enjoying cannabis can be considered bad manners. You should try to participate in the discussion and be an active part of the group. Otherwise, the people around you will receive a bad impression of you. Not only will you miss out on a potentially enjoyable experience, but you will also fail to benefit from a good opportunity to network.

#4 Be Mindful of the Delivery Guy’s Duty

Cannabis delivery systems have become quite popular in the past couple of years, particularly during the pandemic when people could not go outside their houses. If you are hosting a party and get cannabis delivered to your doorstep, don’t try to strike up long conversations or make them wait a long time on your doorstep to be compensated.

You may think that you’re making a nice gesture to them, but in actuality, you will be hindering their work. Be mindful of the fact that these guys have other deliveries to make and then report back to work. 

In fact, the best way to respectfully deal with cannabis delivery guys is to get your payment ready, pay them right away, thank them and let them leave. If you really want to make a nice gesture, give the delivery guy a decent tip!

#5 Don’t Post Online

We understand the urge to post about your private cannabis meetup, but you have to be mindful of who sees your posts online. There still are people who prefer to keep their cannabis consumption rather private. 

It is best to avoid posting publicly about your private cannabis meetup, but if you truly want to do the deed, post a picture or a video on a private group of users. You’ll get the response and might even compel some more users to join on your next meetup.  

#6 Know Your Dosage

The last thing you want to do at a cannabis meetup is to overindulge. New users are often unaware of their strain’s dosage and how much THC their bodies can bear. Overdosing can lead to significant psychoactive effects, but may also make you feel ill, nauseous, dizzy, etc.

You don’t want to spoil the private cannabis party for others by going overboard with your consumption, so it is best always to consult budtenders at the best Vegas dispensary. These budtenders are cannabis experts who will guide you through your consumption, and the dosage that would work best for you.

In a Nutshell

Yes, cannabis etiquette is a thing, and it is our job as users and advocates of cannabis to be mindful of this to have a good impression on non-users. The users and advocates are constantly working towards making this industry a professionally regulated, safe, and comfortable place for everyone.

Following the above mentioned etiquettes will only enable us to showcase the prolific side of our close-knit cannabis community. Who knows -if done well, it might even lead to cannabis legalization on a federal scale one day.
