Which electronic cigarette should you choose to vape your CBD?
To take full advantage of the soothing, anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties of CBD, vaporization is an excellent option as the active ingredients of hemp enter the bloodstream quickly. It all starts with choosing the right electronic cigarette.
#1 How strong is your CBD e-cigarette?
The power of your electronic cigarette is determined by the resistance, indicated in ohms on the cartridge or wick.
For optimal use, resistors of 1 to 1.5 ohms (Ω) must be used. This resistance range allows vaporization at low temperatures to preserve the properties of CBD and avoid the degradation of cannabinoids through combustion.
#2 The size of the tank
It is best to use small reservoirs or cartridges with a capacity of 1 to 3 ml. CBD e-liquids are best stored away from light and heat .
By opting for a small tank, the e-liquid is less exposed to these elements, which preserves the soothing, analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties of CBD.
#3 Other criteria to take into account
Ceramic wicks are recommended because they heat evenly and reduce the risk of CBD burning.
Opt for glass or stainless steel tanks, as they are more durable and don't react chemically with CBD like lower-quality plastics. Finally, a variable voltage battery will allow better control of the vaporization temperature.
What dosage of CBD for your e-liquid?
CBD e-liquids are offered in different dosages, expressed in mg/10ml. Here is a short practical guide to help you identify the dosage best suited to your needs.
#1 Low dosages
We are talking here about concentrations lower than 100 mg/10ml (or 10mg/ml). Thanks to their low concentration of cannabidiol, they are suitable for all vaper profiles. These e-liquids can be used both for short, one-off sessions and for longer sessions.
#2 Intermediate dosages
Intermediate dosages are between 250 and 300 mg/10ml, depending on the brand. They are more suitable for short sessions of around ten minutes and spaced apart. They will allow you to fully benefit from the effects of CBD without overloading the body.
#3 High dosages
Here we are talking about e-liquids whose rate is around 500 mg/10ml. The effects of these dosages are very marked. It is therefore advisable to vape them occasionally over short sessions. These dosages are not recommended for beginners due to their potency.
#4 Very high dosages
Very high dosages are those that exceed 600 mg per 10 ml of liquid. They can reach up to 1,500 mg per 10 ml on ultraconcentrated e-liquids. Warning: these products should not be vaped in their pure form. They must be diluted in a propylene glycol (PG) and/or vegetable glycerin (VG) base.
