Tips for First–Timers

  • Respect the potency. At roughly 37–43% THC, an infused cannagar is much stronger than a normal joint — start with a few small puffs and pace yourself.
  • Plan for a long burn. Cannagars burn slowly; they are well suited to sharing or relighting across a session rather than finishing in one sitting.
  • Check stock and the exact strain. Lineup and inventory rotate on OCS, so confirm the current cannagar and its lab numbers before you buy.
