Question 7

What kind of marijuana products are right for me?

Accepted Answer

Start low and go slow.  Sometimes, the effects of marijuana aren’t always immediately felt. Everyone responds differently. Methods of using marijuana can be discussed with a Medicine Creek representative to find a method that is comfortable for you. We are dedicated to helping you find the right balance of smokeable, vapable, edible, and concentrated products to fit your specific needs. But remember, the basic principle for consuming marijuana is “start low and go slow.”  Marijuana has a wide margin of safety and there is a very limited risk of overdose. However, caution is warranted until you fully understand the effect that marijuana may have. Product types and consumption varies greatly among individuals.
