Chatting Dry Herb Vaping with Jenna

Let’s talk dry herb vapes for chronic consumers AND beginners.

Smoking cannabis is a part of my daily life, and has been for over a decade. Sometimes I also like to enjoy a cannabis bevvie or edible, but nothing is quite as cathartic for me as hitting my bong or smoking a joint.

Bong Hygiene

I’m writing to you about bong hygiene, as a former nasty bong user. I’m not ashamed to admit it, because I know I’m not the only one out here not cleaning their bong daily. We would clean it maybe once or twice a week, but use it a few times a day.

Women Supporting (Local) Women

For Women’s History Month, we’ve been using our socials to feature some of the amazing women who make and share their work with us here at P+L. We wanted to do a little roundup of some of the local (and local-ish) female talent that we’ve featured this month.

The world of Cannabinoids: What is CBG?

What CBG does when consumed, and its mechanisms for acting on our bodies, is still in the early days of research. Simply put, the research landscape on CBG is lacking, especially when compared to the relative abundance of research into its cannabinoid cousins, THC and CBD. Still, hypotheses are in the many and the research that is getting done is getting fascinating early results.
