New to Cannabis?
New to cannabis? You're in good hands.
First time in a dispensary — or first time in a long time? No jargon, no judgement, no pressure. Here's what most newcomers want to know before they walk into our High Park or King West stores.
"What should I buy?"
Start with the experience you want — relaxed, social, creative, or simply curious — and pick a low-dose format you're comfortable with. Gummies, beverages, and balanced oils are the most beginner-friendly. Our budtenders will narrow it down with you in two minutes.
"How much should I take?"
Less than you think. For edibles, 2.5 mg THC is a sensible first dose — and wait the full 90 minutes before even thinking about more. For inhaled formats, one small puff, then wait 15 minutes. "Low and slow" is the only rule that matters.
"How will it make me feel?"
At low doses: typically relaxed, lighter, a bit giggly. THC is the part that gets you high; CBD doesn't. Effects depend on dose, format, and you — which is why starting small lets you find your sweet spot without overshooting it.
