The Original First-World Problem: Carts 🔌 Versus Flower 🍃

Options, options, options! It can be hard deciding on how to best enjoy your favorite green confectionary.

Inflation is hitting harder than your first marriage, and you’ve got some financial choices to make. When deciding on whether you want to inhale carts or smoke flower, here are some factors you could consider!

Cartridges 🪫🪫

Pros

• When it comes to discretion, carts are KING. Let’s face it. flower kicks up a smell, while carts leave virtually no smell or ash. If you’ve got a grumpy landlord, carts may be your lifeline!

• Concentration is generally higher. This may be preferable to some stoners who can handle their high like a champ 💪💪.

• Convenience is a huge bonus for cartridges. You don’t need to lug around your secret little box of grinders, papers, and flower to get your fix. Plug your battery in once in a blue moon and you’re set to play!

Cons

• Quality control is mixed at best. Flower to concentration adds one more step in front of the consumer, and this can leave an opening for bad practices like cutting the product with agents like glycerin. Being wary of bad manufacturers may be a necessary workaround for finding a proper cart.

• Many cartridges only have one form of THC as an isolated compound to keep costs down. This runs counter to the “full-spectrum” experience if that is your preference. You can purchase a high-quality cart, but it can be pricey and hard to source 🛒.

• Concentration is harder to control. Flower generally takes you to your destination more gracefully. This can be a huge turn-off for those who suffer from weed anxiety 😰.

Flower 🍃🍃

Pros

• Affordability comes to mind when thinking about flower. You’ve got an infinite amount of strains to pick from, and you aren’t pressed to break the bank for a quality cart.

• Traditionally, pot is smoked in flower form. This generally ensures you get that full-spectrum feel - littered with the wide-array of cannabinoids that you’d expect. There is nothing wrong with being particular in your approach - if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!

• Potency is easier to control than with cartridges. It’ll ease you in and give you that classic smoke session feel, wrapping you in a neat blanket of high 🛏️.

Cons

• Smoking flower is not the most discrete choice. You end up leaving ash and putting away a stash of smelly product that ALWAYS ESCAPES. Seriously! Weed-stink penetrates anything!

• Comparatively to carts, they do not offer the most intense experience. Depending on the type of person you are, this can be a downside.

• You need a lighter.

Conclusion

Ultimately, the choice between marijuana cartridges (carts) and flower ultimately depends on individual preferences, needs, and circumstances.

Marijuana cartridges offer convenience and precise dosing but may raise concerns about additives and environmental impact. On the other hand, consuming cannabis flower allows for a more traditional experience with a wider range of strains and the potential for more control over the quality.

It's essential to consider factors like personal preferences, health considerations, and legal regulations when making this choice, as both options have their advantages and drawbacks in the evolving landscape of cannabis consumption.
