How do you decide what cartridge you’re going to buy at a dispensary? Is it the percentage of THC found in the cartridge? Is it the price? Is it that you’re loyal to a brand? Or is it the other cannabinoids that are active in the cartridge other than the THC percentage? You may even just go for the budtender’s recommendation, but let me tell you what I look for and what’s most important to me when looking for a great cartridge.
I am going to say it from the start, I love high percentages of THC in my products. Who doesn’t? Ironically, it’s NOT what I look for when shopping for cartridges. I’m looking for products that have other active cannabinoids present in them. You might ask yourself “why?” – Those other cannabinoids interact with your endocannabinoid system (ECS) similar to THC, giving you a more complete high.
These other cannabinoids can be known as CBD, CBN, CBG, THCA, just to name a few. Something else that is important is the terpene profiles found in these products. Terpenes are very similar to cannabinoids and are found in the same area as each other: the resin glands. If you find a product or company using true cannabis derived terpenes in their products on top of other active cannabinoids, then you have found yourself a winner.
I have personally found that winning brand for me; Honey Oil out of San Diego, California. What’s cool about this brand is that they have multiple strains available in distillate and live resin cartridges, and do a ton of great promos all over San Diego County. I know they have a solid THC%, multiple other active cannabinoids, and I have personally seen the owner of the company source their own cannabis derived terpenes to add to their products. Their live resin cartridge is as close to hitting actual flower as possible in both high and flavor.
You always want to know what you’re smoking and putting into your body and Honey Oil truly makes me feel safe while using their quality product. If you’re in San Diego you can find these amazing cannabinoid rich, terpene filled, distillate or live resin cartridges at multiple stores across San Diego. Check out the brand and use their easy store locator to find their products near you.
