Has everyone switched to vaping cannabis?

In the last decade, vaping has gone from something we heard about to seeing it daily. Millennials and Gen Z have quickly hopped on board and took the safer route into absorbing cannabinoids without the old school way of combustion. With more states legalizing cannabis, the stigma that was once linked to it is almost all gone. Many patients that request cannabis are often recommended to vape by their doctors. Let’s not make any mistake comparing this to eCigs as vaping dry herbs is completely different. A vaporizer uses an oven (usually made of ceramic or stainless steel) and a temperature controller allowing you to choose the proper setting for your vaping session.

In the past few years, there has been a major uptick of Gen X and baby boomers starting to vape cannabis as well. It is however a bit different with both of these generations. Unlike with Millennials and Gen Z who quickly search for reviews and youtube videos, baby boomers and Gen X often prefer to speak to someone and have their questions answered. Even though this seems like the old school way of doing things, it is in reality the best option with a lower percentage of buyer’s remorse. You may ask yourself why that would be, but the answer to this is quite simple. Many reviews and videos are sponsored therefore it is almost like a sales pitch for you to buy the product. With cannabis and vaping related content, majority of videos cannot be monetized, so the best option for the maker of the video is to be sponsored in some way. Usually that is to promote the product in the video with bonuses using the link they place in the description for purchases (aka Affiliate Marketing).

Within this market of vape shops, a very few have sales reps that you can speak to live and that will help you make the proper decision based on your needs and budget. A well known online vape shop Portable Hookahs has been helping customers since 2014 do just that. Their reviews on TrustPilot and BBB prove just that. Not only do they provide a phone number to speak to a sales rep but they also offer a training service where you make an appointment after receiving your vape in order to learn how to use it properly from beginning to end. This service ensures that customers get the perfect product they can afford as well as the performance that they had expected during their sales call.

It is common for a medical professional to encourage their patient to stop smoking all together. But, when this doesn’t work, they often encourage the patient to at least switch their cannabis consumption to either vaping dry herbs or edibles. This happens particularly more often with patients that have respiratory related illnesses and are urged to quit smoking. Majority chooses vaping dry herbs and often uses the vaporized remains of their cannabis to cook with. Dry herb ground material becomes a shade of brown after it has been vaped but still has some THC and other cannabinoids left in it perfect for cooking.
