WARNING

There are many ways to consume concentrated cannabis, by all means, a vape pen is likely the most popular.

A vape pen or electronic cigarette (“E-cig”) is a relatively new technology that heats up cartridges or vials of concentrated marijuana.

Many people believe that they are a healthy alternative to smoking, however at the present time there is not enough research to understand the long-term effects.

But guess what?

There are also vaporizers that do not use concentrated marijuana called dry herb vaporizers.

The best dry herb vaporizers guarantee easier and safer user experience while vaporizing cannabis compared to smoking weed.

While the quality of these vaping gadgets depends on many factors such as battery life, temperature control, the speed of heat-up, the size of the heating chamber, and the material of the vapor path, you can find one that works for you.

There are many options in dry herb vaporizers, that’s why the high-quality, full-fledged dry herb vaporizer is costly.

However, you don’t have to buy the most expensive vape.

As I have said, there are many factors to consider, such as where and how you will use it.

You’ll also want to remember that there is little regulation around them, meaning you are at risk of purchasing a cheap, knock-off pen with cheaply produced, foreign parts.

Even so, that doesn’t necessarily mean that everything cheap has poor quality.

If you want to do it right, it’s important to do your research and find the highest-quality vape pen that your budget can afford to ensure a healthy experience.

A vape pen comes in different types and models and it can be challenging to choose between the options, however, on the positive side, there is a basic structure to them. They all include a cartridge, atomizer, and battery.

The Cartridge

The cartridge is where the tincture drops (or the vape pen “juice”) are added, one drop at a time. (Some pens do not have refillable cartridges).

One end of the cartridge is where your lips touch while inhaling while the other end of the cartridge attaches to the next component: the atomizer.

The Atomizer

The atomizer heats up the marijuana, changing it from its liquid form to gas, or vapor.

Vape pens use a variety of atomizers that provide different levels of heat, but there aren’t many options to choose from.

The Battery

The longest component of any vape pen or E-cig is the battery. Batteries can vary by model and may be manual or automatic.

A manual vape pen requires ignition of some sort, such as a button that needs to be pressed before it works. With automatic vape pens, on the other hand, you only need to inhale.

Buying a high-quality vape pen

high-quality vape pen

The best way to ensure you are buying a high-quality vape pen is to do your research beforehand.

Make sure that the brand is reputable and well-reviewed. You can easily find this type of information online.

With that in mind, know that you might encounter some overpriced vape pens.

Once in a while buyers are tricked by vendors a selling a cheap pen, such as one that should cost just $5, for as much as $75 or $80.

You should be able to avoid this so long as you check online and read up on the manufacturer.

BUY HIGH THC SEEDS

I can not say this enough:

The safest way to go about it is to choose a reputable brand, then buy from one of their licensed vendors so you can rest assured you know exactly what you are getting.

If you’re not particularly concerned about quality, you should be.

Seeing that this is a tool that changes and sends something straight into your body, a low-quality product can have a direct, negative effect on your health.

By the same token, it could be dangerous because of cheaper, knock-off components or inferior and unhealthy metals.

That’s not all…

Some will burn instead of vape, causing smoke to release instead of vapors. In this situation, it is no different than smoking.

thc vape pen juice

What is vape pen juice?

As much as the actual device matters, the “juice” itself is important. Given that the juice is what goes into your body, you need to ensure that this “juice” is just as high in quality as the vape pen.

Be that as it may, making vape juice generally requires weeks of time. As a a result, most people will not bother to make it.

So what’s in that “juice”?

Vape juice is a form of oral tincture. That means it is a liquid substance made primarily of either glycerin or alcohol, with herbs infused into it.

Did you know?

Oral tinctures were initially designed to be consumed as drops under the tongue. They are processed differently than edibles because they bypass your liver.

This makes tinctures easier to absorb for those with certain metabolism problems that may affect their ability to ingest marijuana via edible products.

Tinctures have a long history.

As a matter of fact, oral tinctures have been around for thousands of years! Using a vape pen or E-cigarette to consume them, on the other hand, is the new part.

That is to say, marijuana oral tinctures are perfectly safe, and when made and used correctly they are incredibly effective.

Remember, you have options.

There are some great resources on where to buy your vape oils, but you can also make your own vape juice. More on that below, but first, some reasons why you might.

The benefits of making vape juice yourself

Why should you spend the several weeks it takes to make the oral tinctures or vape juice?

As with any type of consumable product, it is always best when you know exactly where it comes from, and what is in it.

That is to say, if you buy it from a distributor or from store shelves, you only can know so much about what actually makes up that product.

On the other hand,

When you make it yourself, you know exactly what went into it, and how that affects your body. Of course, this is simply a healthier way to do it.

How to make your own vape juice

The first thing you will need is some high-quality marijuana. The best way to ensure you have high-quality is to grow it yourself.

My recipe uses powdered hash or bud. However, you don’t need to grow extra weed for that. Make hash from the trim of your marijuana plants and you can leave the buds for smoking.

You can use any marijuana strain for your juice, however, here are a few of my favorites:

Pure Indica

Cheese

Strawberry Cough

AK-47

Gold Leaf Auto

Green Crack

Once you’ve prepared your marijuana, you’ll need to purchase glycerin.

In general, it is not a good idea to make vape juice with non-food grade propylene glycol or glycerin.

This is because food grade products must be stored in containers that are safe and non-toxic, as propylene glycol and glycerine both absorb the chemicals from any container it has been stored in.

If you use the non-food grade version of these products, it should only be applied externally.

To repeat:

Do not consume or inhale anything with non-food grade propylene glycol or glycerin in it.

For that reason, this recipe calls for only 100% USP-food grade vegetable glycerin.

Not only will it ensure your health and safety but using glycerin instead of propylene glycol will also produce more vapor overall.

Blends of both are probably best for E-cigarettes that have juices that are nicotine-based.

There are other options as well:

Some people prefer to buy a product such as EJMix, which has a mixture of Propylene Glycol and Polyethylene Glycol in it. These products are both found in commercial vape juice.

This recipe can also work for non-marijuana herbs, depending on your medical needs and taste preferences.

Herbs such as lavender, garlic, mint, milk thistle, tobacco, and others can all be substituted for marijuana in this recipe, and they can also be taken as regular tinctures (under your tongue).

While the recipes may vary slightly according to which herb you prefer, the process is nearly the same, so this marijuana-based recipe can still be used with other herbs.
