Learning to Smoke Medical Marijuana Smoking is one of the most popular and easiest ways to consume medical cannabis. Regardless of the smoking method you prefer, properly preparing your marijuana the first important step. You would also want to ensure that your cannabis is correctly stored at all times to preserve the freshness and flavour.   Preparing and Smoking Cannabis Techniques

• When lighting marijuana, put the flame to the bowl or the end of the joint. Inhale softly until you feel smoke enter your mouth and lungs.
• As you inhale, fully draw the smoke into your lungs before you exhale. If there is no smoke when you exhale, check if the device is clogged. If there is a small hole or choke on the device, release your finger to allow the smoke into your lungs.
• Use the minimum amount of heat needed to light the product. Excessive heat can reduce the potency and flavor.
• Use a grinder, so your cannabis burns more evenly for improved potency.

  An Important Tip for Smoking Beginners  If you are new to smoking marijuana, start by taking only one or two inhalations. Wait until you feel the effects before you inhale more to avoid the unpleasant sensation of overdoing it. Be aware that patients who are new to medical marijuana sometimes might not feel an effect the first time. Do not take this as a hint to consume a larger dose. Instead, stop smoking for 20 to 30 minutes, and try again later.   Buy Your Smoking Cannabis Supplies Now There is a wide variety of products and accessories available to assist medical marijuana patients and recreational users.
