Having legalized recreational cannabis in 2012, Colorado is a pioneering state for the legalization of cannabis in the United States. It has everything you could want: dispensary tasting rooms, marijuana hospitality establishments, and cannabis cafes. It also has one of the most comprehensive medical marijuana programs in the nation, which was put in place in 2000. It should come as no surprise then that medical cannabis patients have a wide range of product choices at dispensaries.

From dried cannabis flower to edibles, here are all the types of cannabis products available in Colorado. .

1. Dried Cannabis

Benefits: Social, quick onset & relief

If you have a medical marijuana card, you can get up to 2 ounces of dried cannabis. This is compared to the 1 ounce available to recreational users. Dried flower is the ideal cannabis type for patients looking for quick onset and fast relief from symptoms. Why? Smoking and vaping dried flower enable the cannabinoids to hit your bloodstream faster. 

There are many different strains to choose from. Plus, Colorado also allows the sale of a wide variety of accessories, including vaporizers, bongs, and pipes, along with prerolls for your convenience.

2. Edibles

Benefits: long-lasting relief, precise dose, discreet

Medical cannabis patients in Colorado can purchase different types of delicious edibles from licensed dispensaries, from popcorn and cookies to candies and chocolate. The variety and potency of edibles make them an excellent option for those looking for powerful effects and long-lasting relief from symptoms, such as patients suffering from chronic pain.

Consuming edibles is different from smoking dried cannabis in many ways. First, it can take between 30 minutes to two hours for you to feel the therapeutic effects of edibles, while smoking provides immediate symptom relief. Edibles make up for their slow onset with their long-lasting effects, though. Once they kick in, the high of edibles can last between three and eight hours, compared to one to three hours for smoking. You’ll also get more of a deeper effect with edibles.
