Anytime, Anywhere: Creative Ways To Use Cannabis Discreetly And Avoid Smelling Like Weed

Summary

• There are lots of guys curious about CBD or other cannabinoids but are put off by the smell of marijuana or think they might end up getting high. Some CBD products can smell a bit like weed as they are made from hemp (a type of cannabis plant). However, hemp has no more than 0.3% THC, so there’s not a chance you’ll get high.  Unless you're ready to smoke a whole pound.

 

• Smoking cannabis is not the only way to enjoy cannabinoids and terpenes. There are some really innovative CBD products now available on the market, including edibles, topical creams, and tinctures. One of the most discreet and enjoyable ways to enjoy CBD is through CBD dip pouches.

 

• When choosing which CBD products you want to use, it's worth having a basic understanding of bio-availability. This term refers to the quantity and rate at which our bodies absorb the CBD compound into the bloodstream. Every different CBD delivery method will have its own bio-availability and use.

Introduction

It’s 2022 people, not the days of early propaganda and regular guys are becoming more educated about cannabis – from its uses to the different types of plants. However, this doesn't mean it's acceptable to puff on a CBD vape at your kid's baseball game or take a dose from a CBD dropper in the middle of a restaurant. There can still be a bit of stigma and confusion around cannabis use, especially in public.  The baby boomers still have some trauma from the older generations that continue to bleed through.

 

Plus, there’s no getting away from it, cannabis plants have a pretty recognizable scent, and it's not everyone's favorite. Those new to CBD sometimes worry people will end up smelling weed on them and start to mistake their hemp products as less socially accepted THC products.  

 

Luckily for our everyday cannabis fans, we've got you covered. It's now simpler than ever to use CBD in public – discreetly and acceptably.  Or for that matter any of the cannabinoids from CBN and CBG to even THC if you are in California. Read on to learn how you can enjoy CBD without unwarranted attention.

Does CBD smell like weed?

 

Some of you guys might be a bit worried that CBD smells like weed.  No this doesn’t mean you are “soft” it just means you don’t want to blow your cover or create stigma around use.  We get it, sure, you shouldn’t be bothered when you're in the privacy of your own home, but when you're out and about for the world to see and smell, it's not something everyone is comfortable with. Some CBD products out there advertise themselves as fragrance-free, but when it comes to CBD, that's not necessarily what everyone enjoys. After all, you want some flavor!

 

Some CBD can have a slight cannabis smell. This is because the reality is that both THC and CBD come from the same plant species and share similar terpenes. CBD is a cannabinoid located within the cannabis plant family. Hemp and marijuana plants are almost identical, apart from one major exception – THC content.

 

THC (short for tetrahydrocannabinol) is the psychoactive compound responsible for the famous "high" associated with weed and what we’re known for in Humboldt County. CBD (short for cannabidiol) is an active ingredient in cannabis derived from the hemp plant but does not cause a high. Hemp plants contain less than 0.3% THC, which is not enough to cause a psychoactive effect.

 

So, does CBD smell like THC weed? In some cases, CBD can smell very similar to weed due to terpenes. These are pungent compounds that plants naturally produce to repel pests and attract pollinators. Not only do terpenes (or "terps" for short) protect the plants from pests, they are also major components that differentiate the strains of cannabis that we have grown to love.

 

Tips For Using CBD in Public

 

Many people are interested in CBD but are put off by the smell or worried people will think they are getting high. First off, CBD isolates made from hemp will not get you high. Instead, you have the opportunity to enjoy cannabinoids without the effects of THC. There are also some awesome CBD products out there that make it much easier to get a CBD dose when you're out and about.

 

Gone are the days when smoking cannabis was the main way to get those cannabinoids into your system. CBD smoke can give off a smell, and there are a lot of public places that don't allow smoking or vaping. Some people could also mistake the CBD bud smell for THC-rich marijuana – not ideal if you're hanging with the family or at a sports game or even enjoying a flick at your local theatre.

 

Some people use topical CBD products. These can have their uses, but let's get real, you're probably not going to want to walk around with some cream in your back pocket and start rubbing it on with your buddies in the bar.  That just isn’t how you roll.

 

If you're a fan of chewing tobacco or dips, you'll be happy to hear CBD can now be taken in dip form. Cannadips are a fantastic way to swap out tobacco and nicotine products for CBD. We use American Grown Hemp to extract top-quality CBD isolate for an innovative evolution of the traditional dip.

 

CBD pouches, like Cannadips, can be used anywhere and anytime. However, we also recognize that not everyone likes the hemp smell or taste, so we have created CBD pouches that have great flavor and can be used discreetly.

 

 

 

Good quality CBD doesn't come cheap, so you want to make sure you're getting the most bang for your buck when using cannabis products. For this, you will need to grasp the basics of how the body absorbs CBD into the system.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Why does cannabis smell so strong?

The main reason cannabis smells so strong is because of terps. One of the strongest and most recognizable cannabis terpenes is myrcene. You can also find myrcene in other fragrant plants – such as hops, thyme and bay leaf.

Does CBD have an odor? 

Yes, some CBD products can have a bit of a stink because the compound comes from hemp, which is a type of cannabis plant. Certain CBD products will smell less like cannabis and more like the terpenes that have been reintroduced during the production of the final product. This could be anything from a citrus terp to a fresh mint.

Best to check with the boss to see if they mind, but Cannadips are a great option if they're okay with it. CBD dips are discreet, don't give off any funny smells, and are also made from American Grown Hemp, so you know they won't accidentally get you high.
