Different Ways To Consume Marijuana

There are several common ways people consume marijuana (cannabis). Each method affects how quickly you feel it, how long it lasts, and how intense it may be.



1. Smoking (Inhalation)

How: Dried flower is burned and inhaled.

Common methods:

Joints (rolled in paper)

Blunts (rolled in cigar wraps)

Pipes

Bongs (water pipes)


Onset: 1–5 minutes
Duration: 1–3 hours
Notes: Fast effects, easier to control dose, but involves smoke inhalation.


2. Vaping

How: Cannabis flower or oil is heated (not burned) to create vapor.

Types:

Dry herb vaporizers

Vape pens (oil cartridges)


Onset: 1–5 minutes
Duration: 1–3 hours
Notes: Often considered less harsh than smoking, but safety depends on product quality.


3. Edibles

How: Cannabis-infused food or drinks.

Examples:

Gummies

Brownies

Chocolates

Beverages


Onset: 30 minutes–2 hours
Duration: 4–8+ hours
Notes: Stronger, longer-lasting effects. Easy to overconsume because effects are delayed.


4. Tinctures (Sublingual)

How: Liquid cannabis extract placed under the tongue.

Onset: 15–45 minutes
Duration: 2–6 hours
Notes: More controlled dosing than edibles; faster onset.


5. Topicals

How: Cannabis-infused lotions, balms, or creams applied to skin.

Onset: 15–30 minutes
Duration: Varies
Notes: Typically used for localized relief. Usually non-intoxicating (unless transdermal).


6. Concentrates

How: Highly potent extracts (wax, shatter, live resin).

Methods:

Dabbing

Vape cartridges


Onset: Seconds to minutes
Duration: 1–3 hours
