3 Things to Think About When Choosing an Online Medical Marijuana Provider 1. Is Your Source Reputable? When buying medical marijuana online it is vital that you make sure you are purchasing from a reputable source. While there are companies that are completely legit, there are also those people who are out to take your money and run. How can you tell if you re purchasing from a reputable source? Stay away from the obvious scam sites such as Craigslist or Kijiji and don t ever purchase from someone in comments on weed blogs or weed sites. If you ve looked around on different online marijuana sites and forums you ve probably noticed many commenters offering this strain or that at reasonably competitive prices. Don t buy it. Only buy from sources that have a proven reputation for supplying legal medical marijuana from a legitimate business site. Websites such as ScamAdvisor.com can be accessed to see if the provider you choose has been reported in the past for scam. 2. Does This Provider Have the Product You Need? As far as your medicine goes, you know better than anything what you need. Does this provider have the product you need? Are they selling strictly dry leaf or are there edibles and oils available for purchase as well? Do they offer information to help you make well-informed decisions on what product is right for you? 3. Has The Product Been Properly Tested? Anyone can say they ve got the dankest medicine there is and that their product is superior to others. If it hasn t been tested however, you really have no idea what you re getting. Make sure the medical marijuana you re buying online has been tested to meet the highest standards of medical cannabis available. With reputable sites you shouldn t run into a problem, but there has been cases where what you receive isn t always what you thought you were going to get. 3
Buying from a Physical Dispensary vs. Buying Online For many patients, travelling to a marijuana dispensary is out of the question. Whether they are too sick, don t have the means or wish to be discreet in their decision to medicate with marijuana, buying from a reputable source online is an excellent option. While buying online might make you feel like you re on your own, many online sites are full of much of the same information you can get from speaking with someone at a physical dispensary. When choosing to be private in one s choice to medicate with legal pot, buying online serves as a practicable alternative for many medical marijuana patients. What to Look for When Buying Weed Online Being able to legally purchase medical marijuana online is a blessing to many patients who don t have another choice. Unfortunately, there are a lot of people out there that see this as an easy opportunity to rip people off. It s happened before and will more than likely happen again. When you know what to look for when buying cannabis online however, you re better able to protect yourself from those people trying to take advantage. When browsing different sites that sell medical cannabis, look for those professionally put together and that offer useful information regarding marijuana. Anyone can put up a quick site with a few different strains listed, but those that are truly there to supply good, quality medicine will usually have a good, quality site. Does the website you re considering offer information on the different strains they supply? Do they let you know what strains would be best for your condition? Does it contain information regarding medical marijuana? Buying medical marijuana off sites like Craigslist or on different forums is never a good idea no matter what a deal it may seem like you re getting. Look out for people offering prices on a product that seem too good to be true. If it seems like too good of a deal, it probably is. Good quality online medical marijuana distributors are usually pretty easy to decipher from those that are just out to take your money. Reduce your risk of getting ripped off by knowing what to look for and who to stay away from. Why You Need to Know Your Product Different strains of marijuana have different medical benefits. Knowing your product before you buy online will help immensely when choosing the right medicine to fit your needs. There are literally hundreds of different marijuana strains, and buying herb online can be overwhelming to say the least. How do you know what strain is right for you? Although everyone reacts differently to cannabis, there s a few basics that will help you know your product and be able to accurately gauge if you re choosing the best strain you can to fit your own unique needs. 4
Indica or Sativa? There are two different species of marijuana known as indica and sativa. There are also hybrid strains that have crossed genetics of the two. Indica is responsible for providing strong body effects, while sativa is more dominant in producing a mind high. Indica strains are known for that couch-locked feeling or body-stone that makes it difficult to be very active and should be used only when a patient doesn t plan on engaging in a lot of activity. Sativa strains on the other hand can be great for daytime use and are known for their stimulating effects on mind and body. As a general guideline, the two are outlined below for you to better understand their effects and what conditions they are best at treating. Indica Effects Sedative Relaxing Best used at night (or if you don t have anywhere to be during the day) Indica Medical Benefits Pain reduction Promotes sleep Reduces anxiety Helps with depression Helps with nausea Relieves headaches and migraines Stimulates appetite Reduces muscle spasms Helps with seizures Sativa Effects Energizing Best for daytime use Enhances creativity Increases mental focus Uplifting Sativa Medical Benefits Fights depression Reduces nausea Stimulates the appetite Relieves pain Relaxes muscles Helps with headaches and migraines Enhances feelings of positivity 5
Hybrid Cross Strains Many of the marijuana strains you ll find online are a cross-strain of both an indica and a sativa. It is often that the genetics of one strain will be more dominant than the other, thus offering more characteristics of that particular strain. For example, an indica-dominant strain will be your best bet for pain relief yet will still offer optimal energy levels if it s got a good amount of sativa in it. Knowing your product and what strains are the best for certain conditions will save you a lot of confusion when finding the right medicine for you. With time you re sure to find a strain (or two) that become your favorites and you ll soon know exactly what you re looking for. The Difference between Good and Bad Weed If you re new to medical marijuana, there s something you should know. There is definitely a difference between good and bad weed. And when it comes to medicine, you re obviously going to want the best. Good Weed Good weed not only looks good, but is going to smell good as well. Some strains that look good might not smell that good, which is something usually pretty indicative of the quality of herb you re going to be smoking. Smell it. Does it smell dank, with hints of citrus or berries? If your weed smells like grass or contains some hints of mold, something s not quite right. Good weed smells good and if it doesn t it s not good weed. As far as the eye pleasing aesthetics of a good strain of quality weed, you re going to notice a pretty, crystal goodness covering your bud. These crystals are what contain THC, and what will ultimately give you the best high. Good weed should also be slightly moist (but not wet) and not in the least bit crumbly, dry. Good weed will also be properly manicured and not contain seeds and stems. Bad Weed If you get bad weed you re probably going to know it. It will smell like grass or hay, an indication that it wasn t properly cured. It won t contain all those beautiful crystals full of potent THC that high quality cannabis is known for. Bad weed looks bad, like only bad weed can. It s also known as dirt weed obviously for the quality it contains. Stems, seeds, and sticks are all a common occurrence in a bag of bad weed, and all must be separated from your bud before it can be consumed. Bad weed (which you might hear called schwag ) can also be moldy and contain harmful contaminants used by untrustworthy growers. A big area you ll notice between good and bad weed is obviously the way it affects you. When you smoke good quality marijuana, you re going to know it and it shouldn t take much to give you the effects you desire. 6
7 Reasons Why Buying Medical Marijuana on the Street is a Bad Idea Marijuana s been sold on the streets for years. As legal as weed has become, there is still a thriving black market where it is sold on streets pretty much everywhere. With medical marijuana available in dispensaries, street prices have dropped leaving many medical patients wondering if buying on the streets would make better financial sense. The answer is no. Buying medical marijuana on the streets is never a good idea and should be avoided at all costs. Some of the main reasons why include: 1. You Don t Know Where it Came From When it comes to medicating your body, you obviously want to know where your medicine came from. Medical marijuana is no different. When you purchase on the street there is no way of telling where your herb is from, how it was grown, or the sources behind the market. 2. There Is No Way to Know the Quality When medicating with cannabis it s wise to only consume the highest quality you can. Medical marijuana is grown with this quality in mind and there is a certain science behind its structure. Medical cannabis is tested and approved for safe consumption. When you buy marijuana from a stranger on the street there is no way to gauge the quality of marijuana you ingest. 3. It Could Be Unsafe Buying weed on the streets puts you in danger of purchasing a product that has been laced with other drugs. There have been many instances of unsuspecting consumers buying on the street only to smoke and realize it s more than just weed they re smoking. It could have also been grown and/or treated with dangerous chemicals. Buying cannabis on the streets seriously increases the risk of receiving an unsafe product. Remember, if you don t know where it s from, you don t know what you re going to get. 4. It Increases Your Odds of Getting Ripped Off When you buy marijuana at a dispensary or online from a reputable company you know your transaction is going to go smooth. It s easy. You pick out what you want, place your order, pay, and receive your product. When you buy on the street however you run the risk of getting ripped off. Many dealers will either take your money and run or give you much less than what you expected for the price. 7
5. You Run Into the Possibility of Getting Busted Even if you re legally allowed to purchase and consume marijuana for medical use, buying it on the street is assuredly illegal. It isn t often that you know who you re buying from when you purchase cannabis on the street and your possibilities of getting busted increase exponentially. Why even run the risk when you can safely buy it legally online? 6. Street Dealers Can Be Unprofessional Buying on the street is an entirely different ballgame then buying herb online or at a dispensary. Dealers don t have to be one time (and often aren t), can tend to be lazy, and act like they re doing you a favor when you re the one giving them business. With no competition it pretty much means they don t have to try as hard, which is undoubtedly something you ve noticed if you ve ever attempted to buy your medicine from a street dealer. 7. There is a Lack of Variety in Product When you turn to the streets to find your medical cannabis you re really selling yourself short. Dealers usually only have one strain, and what they ve got is what you get. With all the different varieties of medical cannabis that can be found, there s no reason you should be smoking Skunk Haze every time you want to medicate. One of the best parts of buying medical marijuana legally is the huge variety of strains that are readily available. When buying your medicine on the street, this simply just isn t an option. 8
