Vaping Cannabinoids: What You Need to Know to Stay in Control

Vaping cannabinoids: what you need to know to stay in control

Thinking of trying a cannabinoid vape? Whether you’re curious, a beginner or already a fan, here are the essentials to find your way around. At Golden High, we help you vape smart, knowing what you’re consuming.

Why vape cannabinoids?

Vaping is simple and effective. Here’s why many people prefer it to other ways of consuming:

• Near-immediate effects: a few puffs and you already feel them.
• Easy dosing: you take just what you need.
• No combustion: so no smoke. That doesn’t make it risk-free, though.
• Discreet and clean: no lingering smell, easy to carry.

Which products can you vape?

Here are the cannabinoids most often found in vape products in France, with where each one really stands:

• CBD: available as e-liquids, distillates or flowers for vaporising. It’s the flagship molecule, chosen by many because it doesn’t get you high.
• CBG: often presented as the "clarity cannabinoid", a marketing nickname that research has not confirmed. Found in e-liquid and sometimes in flower.
• CBN: some users keep it for the evening, although research has not established any effect on sleep. It’s found in certain cartridges or e-liquids.
• 10-OH-HHC: to date, it is not listed by name as a controlled drug in France, but that does not make it authorised: since 3 June 2024, the French medicines agency (ANSM) has classified by family of molecules, and the rules change fast. Maximum caution. It has circulated as a puff or distillate.

You can pick the format that suits you:

• E-liquids: to use with a puff or an e-cigarette.
• Distillates: more concentrated, to use with a dedicated cartridge (510 type).
• Flowers: if you prefer a dry herb vaporiser.

How to vape properly

A few good habits to enjoy it without overdoing it:

• Start light: especially with the most potent molecules.
• Watch the temperature: it changes everything for flavour and efficiency.
• Stay hydrated: vaping can dry out your mouth.
• Don’t push it: give the effects time to build.

What effects can you expect?

Depending on what they vape, users say they feel:

• A quick sense of calm,
• A feeling of letting go,
• A sense of mental lightness.

But in too large a quantity, you risk a wave of tiredness, a dry mouth or a drop in concentration. Listen to your body.

Is it legal?

It depends on the product. In France, hemp products are tolerated below 0.3% THC, and several molecules are classified as controlled drugs: HHC and its derivatives since 13 June 2023, then H4-CBD, THCP and the whole benzo[c]chromene family since 3 June 2024. Elsewhere the rules are different, so check the law where you live. Check the composition and lab results of every batch, and keep an eye out: the law changes fast.

Where can you find safe products?

At Golden High, we select the best:

• Quality hemp extracts,
• Lab analyses for every batch,
