Hey folks! Welcome back to another exciting foray into the constantly evolving world of cannabis courtesy of your only locally owned cannabis retailer. It’s no secret to people who know me (or have spoken to me for more than 30 seconds) that I’m an avid reader. I spend a frightfully large amount of my time buried in my own imaginations renderings of whatever book I happen to be reading and nothing makes a better reading companion than a bong hit of some tasty ganja. Well, except maybe a good cat. Cats are chill. Anyway, this week we’re going to be catering to my bibliophile tendencies by running down a list of some of the best bits of literature to dive into the next time you imbibe. Let’s get to it!

Hey folks! Welcome once again to another pulse pounding post from Cobourg’s one and only locally owned cannabis retailer. As I write this, Northumberland is experiencing an unseasonably cold, gray day. While most would begrudge this affront to summer, the shift in climate tickles me quite pink. Cause as the temperature drops, we enter into what I like to call “Soup weather”. That’s why this week; we’re going to be learning how to make a cannabis infused soup that is not only savory and warm but also fancy enough to shut up anyone who says I don’t have class. So, pull out those pots and pans and rev-up that blender; it’s time to make some Lobster Bisque!

Hey folks! Welcome back to another pulse pounding adventure into the wide world of cannabis courtesy of Cobourg’s one and only locally owned cannabis retailer. We’ve spent the last few weeks looking at different side effects cannabis is known to produce in humans (the munchies, red eyes etc.) and why they happen. This week though, we’re going to be diving back into our strain highlights in order to take a gander at a quality bit of green that makes a splash wherever it goes: Biscotti. So, let’s learn a bit about what makes this strain such a crowd pleaser!

Hey folks! Welcome back to another exciting blog post to help you build your cannabis knowledge, courtesy of your one and only locally owned cannabis shop. Over the last couple of weeks, we’ve been looking at some of the side effects of consuming cannabis and why they happen. We’ve already covered why we get the munchies and why our eyes turn red so this time around we’re going to be trying to understand why weed consumption can sometimes result in paranoia and what we can do about it! So, pop on those tinfoil hats and let’s do some learnin’!

Hey folks! It’s time again for a journey into the wide world of cannabis with your one and only locally owned cannabis retailer. Last week we discussed why cannabis makes us hungry and got into the nitty gritty of the chemistry that makes that happen. In keeping with that theme we’re going to move on to the how and why of another one of cannabis’ many side effects.

Question:  Have you ever tried to hide how stoned you are only to be given away by your bloodshot eyes? Welcome to the club. I had my mother legitimately convinced I had a medical condition for years when really, it was ganja all along. Sorry mom!

Hey folks! It’s time again for a jaunt down the merry lane of cannabis knowledge with your one and only locally owned cannabis retailer. Hopefully everyone is enjoying their summer so far and that the heat is not draining your vitality as readily as it seems to be draining mine.

                This week we’re going to be addressing something that everyone knows about weed but that few people understand: Why is it every time we smoke weed we have the urge to eat enough Cheetos to choke a blue whale? Well, strap in friends cause we’re going to dive into the science behind the munchies.

Hey folks! It’s time once again for more cannabis news, knowledge and tips from Cobourg’s one and only locally owned cannabis retailer.

Hey folks! It’s time again for another blog post from Cobourg’s one and only locally owned cannabis retailer. Over the last couple of months, we’ve been looking at the edible side of cannabis, specifically how to infuse foods with the qualities of your strain of choice. We’ve also touched on a few recipes I feel best accompany the flavour of cannabis as well as allow you to be flexible with your level of THC potency. This week, we’re going to be bringing the cannabis cuisine segment to a (temporary) end with a recipe designed to get you excited for summer. So, fire up that BBQ and let’s summon the sunshine with some Green Goddess Grilled Chicken!

Hey folks! It’s time again to explore the wide world of ganja with your one and only locally owned and operated cannabis retailer.

                This week, we’re going to be sidestepping into another method for infusing your chosen food with cannabinoid goodness: cannabis oil.

Hey folks! It’s time again for another romp through the cannabis education hedgerows with your one and only locally owned cannabis retailer. For the last couple of weeks we’ve been taking a swing at making our own infused meals using canna-butter (infused butter which we made together in a previous blog post if you’ve been following along). Last week, I laid down a recipe for Coq au Vin: a fancy sounding but rustically simple meal, which I was pretty proud of.

Hey folks! Welcome to another blog post from your favorite (and only) locally owned cannabis retailer! Last week we began our journey down the path of crafting our own psycho-active culinary delights by learning how to make canna-butter (which is butter that is infused with cannabis).

Hey folks! Welcome back to another smorgasbord of cannabis information courtesy of your one and only locally owned cannabis retailer, Circa 1818!

Hey folks! Welcome back to yet another exciting blog post from Cobourg’s one and only locally owned cannabis retailer. We spend a lot of time on here and in store talking about high potency and what strains are best suited to help you get so high that you have deep conversations with a pair of sponge bob toe socks you found under the bed. What we don’t spend nearly enough time talking about are those strains that are designed for the consumers who don’t want to smoke themselves into a paradigm shift every time they partake.

Hey folks! Welcome back to another exciting blog post from your one and only locally owned cannabis retailer, Circa 1818!

Hey folks! It’s time again to take a deep dive into cannabis knowledge with Cobourg’s favorite (and incidentally only) locally owned and operated cannabis retailer. We talk a lot on here about different types of cannabis: what their properties are and whether or not they’re stimulating strains, sedative strains or something in between. We more often than not respectively refer to these differences using the terminology sativa (stimulating), indica (sedative) or hybrid (In between) with most stores using this classification to organize flower for your shopping convenience. The question that keeps coming up though, especially these days, is whether or not the plant type really makes the difference we think it does in terms of effect or if we should spend less time focusing on plant type when it comes to choosing our next bud.

Hey folks! Welcome to another blog post by your one and only locally owned cannabis retailer. For the last little bit, we’ve been looking at the unsung heroes of the cannabis plant: the esters, flavonoids, and particularly the terpenes. Last time we touched on some of the best sedative terpenes you’ll encounter in your cannabis journey and this week, we’re gonna flip the script and look at some of the more energizing terpene’s cannabis brings to the table. So, without further ado, let’s get to know the terpenes that can help put a little extra pop into your step!

This week, we’re going to be zeroing in on terpenes, with a particular focus on those terpenes which can help create and amplify a sedative cannabis experience. So, sit back, relax and let’s get to it!

Hey folks! Welcome to another fun filled blog post from your only locally owned and operated cannabis retailer. Last week, I talked about how we were going to get into looking over some of the terpenes you’ll encounter in the various cannabis products you can find on the regulated market. Terpenes are one of the components that help to create the dynamic aromas (and effects) that appear in ganja.

Hey folks! It’s time again for another educational rip around the cannabis world with Cobourg’s one and only homegrown, locally owned cannabis retailer! We’ve talked about terpenes before. In fact, a couple of years ago I wrote a whole batch of blogs covering the terpenes you’re most likely to encounter when shopping cannabis these days.
