how to properly consume cannabis
1) Start with small doses to explore your tolerance.
Every person reacts slightly different to the effects of cannabis. With use of all our products, we recommend you start with small doses to learn your own tolerance. Due to the nature of cannabis, you cannot actually cause yourself physical permanent harm no matter how much product you take, though you can end up in an altered mental state that you don’t want to be for longer than you want to be.
2) STAY POSITIVE AND ENJOY THE EXPERIENCE.
If cannabis makes you feel paranoid, it's because it affords the user a slightly different view of him or herself. When you're high, your words echo discreetly in your own head and your point of view is slightly off center from normal, affording you a kind of fleeting glimpse of yourself and your actions that you might not ordinarily have. Cannabis invites self-observation, which is not for everyone, even though it should be.
The most important thing to remember is not to panic and to know that you are in control your own experience. If you think positive thoughts, your mental journey will stay positive. If you allow yourself to go to dark places, you may go to a mentally dark place, so when you feel your mind wandering to a dark place, derail that thought and think of something positive. This simple method is surprisingly effective for enjoying Indigo’s medicine.

3) IF NECESSARY, ASK FOR HELP FROM SAFE PEOPLE.
If you need some positive support during your mental journeys, the Indigo hotline is a safe place to call to chat with an Indigo ambassador if one is available. Hopefully you also have other people to reach out to in your life, but if you need us, we’re here for you.
Know your cannabis Types
You should learn the difference between the types of cannabis. Indica makes you sleepy; it's more of a body high, good for pain, anxiety, and difficulty sleeping — you'll likely nod out a couple hours after smoking. Sativa is a more upbeat, artistic, and cerebral high. It sparks the imagination and energizes you directly after smoking and can keep you awake if you smoke too close to bedtime. Hybrid strands have some of all of the effects.

Ways to consume cannabis
FlowersThis is the most common and old fashioned way to utilize and enjoy cannabis. Generally you just grind up the flowers and burn them and then inhale the smoke. The smoking can be done a variety of ways, including using a pipe or in the form of a joint. Indigo carries a full line of high quality flowers of all strain types. Also, if you need a simple pipe or rolling papers, you can get them from Indigo as well.

ConcentratesThe easiest way to use concentrates is through a Indigo pre-loaded vape cartridge and vape pen. For more advanced concentrates like shatter or crumble, you'll need either a dab rig or a vaporizer specifically designed for vaporizing concentrates. Both of these options are available for purchase from Indigo. Your friendly and knowledgeable Indigo ambassador can help you learn how to use the equipment properly.

EdiblesThe effects of edibles are very strong and can last a long time. You should plan to have at least 4 hours of time set aside because you may be in an altered mental state for many hours. Because edibles can be slow to kick in, be sure to wait at least an hour before increasing your dosage because the medicine may still have yet to take effect on you. As with all our medicine, you should start small and work your way up to determine your optimal dosage amounts. We suggest you start with 10mg THC initially (half of a yellow Chronic Clover or one GOLDcap). Indigo has a full selection of beginner and advanced edible products.
