All-natural, hemp-derived CBD is not online popular on the consumer market because it’s legal (although that does help). The compound’s millions of fans enjoy the fact that CBD allows them to experience the wellness benefits of cannabinoids without the associated high of a compound like THC. And these days, more than a few CBD fanatics will tell you that vaping is their preferred method for enjoying these benefits. As it stands, CBD vapes, including vape pens and vape carts, are among the most popular products sold. But why would someone want to vape CBD? Why not simply use CBD oil or ingest an edible? And what is a CBD vape meant to do?

Looking for answers? We’ve got them!

Are CBD Vapes Right For Me?

CBD is the non-intoxicating (it won’t get you high) cousin of THC that offers users a whole host of wellness benefits. People praise this hemp-derived cannabinoid for its ability to help with sleep, stress, digestion, mood, and much more. Yet there are so many ways to experience its benefits — gummies, dabs, drinks, oils — many consumers ask, “are CBD vapes right for me?”

It’s a personal question that each user has to determine for themselves. What we can tell you is that there are two ways to use CBD vapes that are recommended for beginners, which are as follows: 

• CBD Disposable Vapes (Vape Pens)
• CBD Vape Carts

What’s the difference between the two? We’re glad you asked!

CBD Vapes: What Is a CBD Disposable Vape?

By now, many of you may be familiar with vape pens, the small, discreet vaping devices prevalent among consumers across the country. These products are pre-filled with nicotine or THC juices and work with the push of a button. Over the past five years, vape pen technology has evolved immensely, allowing such products to corner the market.

CBD Disposable Vapes are vape pens pre-filled with CBD vape juice. What’s great about these devices, especially for beginners, is that they are incredibly convenient. As we just noted, they come pre-filled with CBD oil. But they also include a fully charged battery, allowing users to begin vaping them right out of the box. The best part? When you’re done with one, you toss it in the trash and move on to a new pen. 

Reputable retailers like Diamond CBD offer a variety of CBD disposable vapes, often in various strains such as Blue Dream, Sour Diesel, Pineapple Express, and Wedding Cake. 

CBD Vapes: The Benefits of CBD Vape Carts

For those who prefer to take things to the next level with their CBD Vapes, you may want to explore CBD Vape Carts. When you purchase a cart or cartridge, you receive a pre-filled tank — again, full of CBD oil or vape juice. However, you need a battery to connect to the cart.

The benefit of using vape carts is that they are rechargeable. Typically, you’ll need a 510-compatible battery. You screw the cart onto your battery and enjoy. You toss it out and screw on a new cart when it’s empty. Like disposables, CBD vape carts come in various strains and flavors. 

What Are the Benefits of CBD Vapes?

Studies show that CBD has many wellness benefits, but users should note that CBD vapes have several advantages over other administration methods, such as edibles or oils. Notably, vaping provides the highest bioavailability of any delivery method. Bioavailability measures the percentage of CBD in the product that enters your bloodstream. Short of injecting CBD directly into your veins, you won’t achieve a higher bioavailability than vaping. Oils, dabs, gummies, drinks, and capsules all lose a significant amount of CBD as they are absorbed into the fatty tissues in your digestive system. 

What’s the other benefit? CBD Vapes have the fastest onset time. Onset time is the time it takes to start feeling the physical effects of CBD. Whereas the CBD in edibles and other products takes time to work its way into your bloodstream, vapor, when inhaled, enters the bloodstream almost instantly. Many CBD users with sudden onset issues such as anxiety cite onset time as a significant factor in their decision to go with vaping over edibles. 

CBD Vapes: The Takeaway

CBD is one of, if not the most prevalent cannabinoid available on the legal market today. Consumers have a multitude of options at the ready, from edibles to oils to concentrates. Retailers like Diamond CBD have a large selection of products from which you can choose, and trust us; you’ll be happy that you did! However, if you’re looking for something that’s fast-acting and doesn’t waste any of the compound, CBD Vapes should be high on your list.

Over the past decade, vaping cannabis has gone from a tedious process involving an expensive tabletop device to one of the simplest, most portable, and most discrete methods of consuming the plant. The sheer volume and available vaping devices can be overwhelming and confusing for your average consumer. 

What Is Vaping?

Vaping is consuming cannabis flower or concentrate via a device like a Volcano or pen. These devices heat the cannabis to a temperature at which it vaporizes and is then inhaled. The plant or concentrate is never burned, so no smoke is produced. 

Why Do People Vape?

Cannabis enthusiasts choose to vape for many reasons, but the most common is that it produces a more intense high. The plant does not combust, so no smoke is produced, leading many to believe it’s a healthier option. The smell is also less intense than smoking flower. In fact, it can be almost nonexistent, depending on the device you use. The newest devices like pens are discreet, easy to use, and offer consistent dosing.

What Do People Vape?

Flower is the most traditional and old-school product that people vaporize. More common now is THC oil extracted from the cannabis plant through a chemical process. Relatively newer cannabis concentrates like live rosin, an oil made in a flash-freezing process, are growing in popularity.

Regardless of the type of concentrate you use, vape pens are big business. Sales of the devices, or cartridges used with the devices, are seeing double-digit growth each year. People bought more than $2.6 billion worth of them in 2021.

Here are three of the most popular types of vaping devices:

The Tabletop/Desktop Device

Before 2010, there was really just one way to vape: Tabletop (or desktop, depending on who you talk to) devices like The Volcano, released in 2001. These devices are comparable monsters next to the prevalent pens. And they’re expensive.

The Volcano itself is an 8-inch wide device that weighs more than 3 pounds and starts at $479.

Vaping with a tabletop device involves vaporizing dry cannabis flower through a convection heating process that can take up to six minutes. The vapor typically fills up a large bag you can inhale it from for an intense high.

Portable Dry Herb and Concentrate Vapes

Recently, technology has emerged that’s allowed for portable devices that work much the same way The Volcano works—except they’ll fit in your pocket.

Typically using either a convection or conduction heating process, these little guys quickly heat dry flower (or concentrates, like wax) to a vapor that can be inhaled discreetly.

An app typically accompanies portable dry vaporizers, allowing you to control and fine-tune the temperature at which you vape. The best will remember your favorite settings for each strain or type of product you’re consuming. 

You can expect to pay anywhere from $100 to $300 for a dry herb vape.

Vape Pens

Around the same time as over-the-counter nicotine vape devices like the Juul were taking off, the same technology created similar devices for cannabis. In fact, one of the most popular cannabis vape pens— like Pax—were developed by the same company as the nicotine-focused Juul.

These devices are the cheapest option and range from being designed as disposable products to high-end, thoughtfully designed devices with connected smartphone apps that, like the dry herb vapes mentioned above, allow for precise heat settings and remember your preferences.

Disposable vape pens are usually discreet and in the $25 to $50 range, depending on the brand, quality of the product, and the amount of cannabis concentrate. This can range from 35 mg to a whole gram but typically lands at half a gram. And while they’re often the choice of weed tourists and have a reputation for low quality, many now focus on terpene flavors and cannabinoid contents (CBD, CBG, etc.). Some are even made with the newer, terpene- and cannabinoid-rich concentrates like live rosin.

The most common vape pen consists of two pieces: a body (called a “battery”) that looks like a pen and a cartridge containing some sort of cannabis concentrate that screws on the top. Some pens require you to push a button before inhaling, while others turn on automatically when they detect inhalation. Most batteries are rechargeable using a USB connector.

Depending on the simplicity of the tech in the battery, they can range from $5 to hundreds of dollars. Meanwhile, the cartridges—typically 0.5 grams or a full gram— are in the $25 to $50 range, depending on the type of concentrate and quality of the ingredients.

Whether you want to go old school with a desktop conversation starter or are looking for a more discreet method to get that distinct vape high, these options will get you there.

Are you like an increasing number of Americans living in states where cannabis is legal? In that case, those summer activities will involve weed—and perhaps a lot of it.

Here are the 10 must-have cannabis accessories that will make you the most popular person at the party and ensure your cannabis-filled summer is one to (hazily) remember!

A Plan

You’re going to be consuming intoxicating substances, quite possibly with people you don’t know very well, and in crowded or perhaps desolate spaces. Do you know where and when to meet up should you lose cell service? Do you have a buddy system in place? Do you have a ride-hailing app installed on your phone (and enough money on your credit card to pay for it)? Be like a Boy Scout and be prepared.

Mini-Prerolls 

Two trends have merged to make the old-school, 1-gram joint a thing of the past. First, we’re still in the middle of a global pandemic, and nobody needs to be swapping saliva and sharing a joint. Second, the notion of “more is better” has finally evolved within the cannabis sector to a “gradual is better.” This has opened up the market to all sorts of low-dose products, and one is mini-prerolls. Essentially, it’s a premade joint containing a half-gram (or less) of cannabis. No muss, no fuss, no spreading germs.

A Vape Device

Not everybody wants to inhale a combusted natural substance into their lungs, yet they still seek the instant gratification of a smoked high. Plus, nobody wants to wait 45 minutes for that edible to kick in. Vapes are cheap, discrete, and getting better. With technological improvements, the cannabis extracts available for vape usage are more like a “smoker’s high” than ever before. Look for live resin or rosin cartridges at your favorite store.

Edibles

OK, maybe you have a friend who doesn’t want to inhale any substance into their lungs. And perhaps they’re a gluten-free vegan with a soy allergy. Luckily, there are countless edibles options that will work for just about any diet. And technology in edibles is improving, too—while most will still take a good half hour to kick in, some brands are advertising “fast-acting” effects that a user could feel within 15 minutes of consumption.

Stash Box 

Look: Weed might be legal where you live, but walking around smelling like a dispensary is just rude. And, let’s face it: It still draws unwanted attention from, well, let’s call them “certain authorities.” There are plenty of options—from bags to tubes and boxes that will hold your weed and keep that odor under control.

Beverages

First off, cottonmouth sucks. Second, cannabis beverages are all the rage, and they’re getting better, too. Many are delicious, and they leverage some of the same technology that edibles manufacturers are using to speed up the high. Having some regular old water is probably a good idea, too. 

Snacks 

Maybe stay away from the infused candies and pastries for this one, and have something quick to eat in case someone on your team needs it. There’s a fine line between the munchies and hangry.

Portable Bluetooth Speakers

You aren’t going hiking with some friends and smoking weed in silence, are you? Music is an integral part of the cannabis experience. But you already knew that.

The Right Bag

This all might sound like a lot, but it’s really nothing you couldn’t fit into a large backpack or tote. So, find your look at the right price range and remember: It should be waterproof and have lots of pockets.

Shades

You should probably have eye drops in that bag already, but just in case, keep those bloodshot eyes under wraps, look fantastic and remember that the future is bright.

With these 10 must-have accessories, you’re all set to have an exciting, ganja-packed summer you’re sure to remember!

TORONTO, May 24, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Aleafia Health Inc. (TSX: AH, OTCQX: ALEAF) (“Aleafia Health” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that its upward trend in market share, purchase orders, and new SKU launches has continued in 2022’s first four months, following on from the growth in the quarter ended December 31, 2021. The Company has seen strong advances in its largest adult-use categories: flower, pre-rolls and vapes.

The Company has now achieved more than four consecutive quarters of increases in adult-use cannabis market share, rising to 2.5% in April 2022, a 134% year over year increase over April 2021. Among Canadian licensed Cannabis producers, Aleafia Health achieved a record 13th in overall market share rank in April 2022, based on retail level sales pull through, up from 16th in the quarter ended December 31, 2021.⁽³⁾

Delivering Innovative New Products with Rapid Customer Uptake

At the Ontario Cannabis Store (“OCS”), sales for the recently launched Pineapple Nuken pre-roll 12 pack exceeded $1 million in the first four months of 2022 and sales of cropped harvest products were nearly $1 million in their first month.

Focused Product Portfolio on the Largest Adult-Use Product Categories

“On our Q4 2021 earnings call earlier this year, we committed to delivering on ambitious growth plans and the Company is now meeting and, in some cases, exceeding those targets,” said Aleafia Health’s CEO Tricia Symmes. “The Company has a superb, hard-working team, and strong consumer acceptance for its Sunday Market house of brands. It’s no wonder that our everyday brand Divvy has been among the OCS’ most searched product list for the last 14 months. It’s a very exciting time for the Company as quarter by quarter we build on our foundation and get increasingly more recognition among savvy industry participants who recognize we are here to compete.”

“By strategically creating a portfolio of 37 active SKUs in the OCS, with 12 additional SKUs launching in the Spring and Summer, we are laser focused on the largest margin, top revenue-generating product categories: flower, pre-roll and vapes, with 67% of our SKU listings in those categories,” said Symmes. “In AGLC we have 43 active SKUs, with 8 SKUs pending launch, and in that market 60% of our SKU listings are in those same three large product categories.”

Continued Scaling of a Diversified Revenue Mix

“Our top three selling products in the OCS year to date ended April 30, 2022, were $1.1 million in sales of Pineapple Nuken 12-pack pre-rolls, $0.9 million in sales of 14-gram Sour Kush flower and $0.7 million in sales of California Orange vape cartridges. All three of these products are under our everyday value brand, Divvy. This demonstrates that we are building a diversified portfolio of products across our three core adult-use categories,” said Aleafia Health’s CFO Matthew Sale.

“I am also pleased to announce that we have over $9.6 million in firm purchase orders from the provincial distributors to date this quarter which we anticipate filling before June 30, 2022. This is an important milestone for Aleafia as we continue to show growth in our adult-use sales while many of our peers are delivering deteriorating sales performance. Among the top 20 largest Canadian LPs, our growth rate in adult-use sales places us in the top quartile. The Company’s run-rate in adult-use net revenue of $28 million is incredible given in Q1 2021 we generated only $1.7 million in net revenue,” said Sale.

“We are very proud of our sales success and will continue to build on our progress in flower, pre-rolls and vapes, the three largest adult-use categories,” said Symmes. “But the Company is also a developer of innovative new products that will continue to drive our sales performance. As an example, we added Bogart’s Kitchen’s Red Habanero to our groundbreaking hot sauce lineup and a winterized resin CBD vape cartridge to our popular Divvy vape lineup. We also have a revolutionary sleep-related product in the product pipeline for summer under our Noon & Night brand. A great team plus new products, new formats, new categories, and leadership in the three largest adult-use categories, that along with our solid Emblem medical cannabis brand and developing momentum in international distribution, is Aleafia Health today.”
