Since the explosion of legally being able to purchase and to have recreational marijuana, there have been a number of questions about marijuana that have come our way. So, we’d like to give our readers and newcomers some answers to age-old questions about weed… based on our opinion of course.
Frequently asked questions (FAQ) such as “Can you die from smoking weed” to “will I lose weight by smoking weed”… we get all kinds of questions. So what we’re going to do is list them all for you. If you don’t see your question listed please contact us and we’ll get it posted straight away.
Can I die from smoking weed?
No. That is unless of course you get high and run off something tall, like your roof... where obviously you could break your neck. Or driving high - another bad idea. Don't drive high - its the same as driving drunk in our opinion and is not cool.
So can smoking marijuana kill you, no. Studies have shown that it would take the power of 800 joints - rolled into one - in order to cause you to overdose on THC. The most anyone I know of has smoked is 6 joints and they simply passed out. Then again, you could get the munchies and try to eat too fast and get something stuck in your throat. Why it's always better to party with friends.
Will smoking weed give me brain damage?
On this one I would say, for an adult, no. But, some studies are suggesting that children are susceptible to brain trauma if given marijuana. IMHO, don't give weed to kids... its just stupid to think people would. Now, CBDs on the other hand, and medication without THC - different story and would need a longer post. But, will smoking weed give you brain damage, not that we know of.

What do I need a grinder for?
You'll need a grinder for reducing your dried plant product into a finer material. A grinder saves you from having to hand-tear your buds which then normally go all over the floor. You place your bud in a grinder, preferably a metal one, and grind for a few seconds. This will save you some time and of course spillage.
How do you roll a joint?
To start, you will need some quality rolling paper. Don't buy garbage paper or cheap shit. Remember, this is going in your body so be careful what papers you get. You simply place a small amount of marijuana (ground) into the center of your paper and roll from the inside out. Lick the rolled paper then fold over the edge - this always works best for noobs.
