Mood is federally legal! How?

All our products are federally legal and have been since the 2018 Farm Bill. We have all our products tested regularly by third-party labs, to ensure our compliance with federal law. Technically speaking, the Farm Bill legalized cannabis products containing less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC by dry weight. As gummies are relatively heavy, they can contain a lot of D9 THC whilst remaining federally lawful, and our flowers contain high amounts of naturally occurring THCa, which turns into D9 THC when smoked, giving you the same great feeling of illegal marijuana, whilst still being federally lawful.

How do you create the different moods?

Lots of people have heard of cannabis being indica or sativa — but we go way beyond these simple definitions! Our in-house cannabis experts start by reviewing detailed lab tests which measure levels of naturally occurring minor cannabinoids and terpenes. We classify these results based on the sum of their parts, which allows us to determine way more about the results than simple Indica or Sativa types. Everybody reacts slightly differently to cannabis, so it’s not a 100% perfect science, but most people who shop according to mood are very satisfied!

All Mood products are regularly tested by third-party labs to ensure safety and federal legality. .

Eating Edibles vs Smoking Cannabis: The Key Differences

Let's take a look at the main differences between smoking cannabis and enjoying edible products:

How Much THC: Edibles vs. Smoking Cannabis

The THC content in edible cannabis products and cannabis flower can vary quite a bit. There are various forms of edibles that are all worth trying, and each has its own cannabinoid profile and potency level. The same goes for flower; different strains can differ significantly in THC content, flavor, aroma, and more.

The amount of THC you take in when you consume cannabis edibles or smoke flower depends on:

The Potency Level: The cannabis-infused edibles are broken down into three potency categories: mild, medium, and high. Depending on which one you choose, you could take in from a few milligrams of THC in a serving to 50 mg.
The Serving Size: When you consume cannabis edibles, you can choose your serving size and change the amount of THC that you take in. For example, splitting a gummy in half is an easy way to get a less potent high.
The Strain: If you're smoking cannabis flower, the strain you choose can impact your high. Each of the different strains in the Mood Shop contains a certain percentage of THCa, which is usually around 22-25%. Choosing a milder-potency strain will result in a more mellow high.

As you can see, the amount of THC in edibles compared to flower can vary. If you want a milder experience, we recommend either eating part of an edible like a gummy or taking a small hit from a joint.

Taking Edibles or Smoking Cannabis: The Experience

Cannabis consumption is all about relaxing, having fun, and enjoying the amazing effects of cannabinoids like THC. You can tailor your weed experience by choosing products that fit your mood and preferences.

Some folks love the way it feels to use edibles. Fans of gummies, THC baked goods, and other popular edibles enjoy the delicious flavors and the delayed onset of effects, which set in nice and slow for a longer-lasting high.

On the other hand, fans of flower swear by the joint and the bong. Folks in this camp say that the feeling of holding in cannabis smoke and savoring its flavors and aromas is second to none.

Both smoking cannabis and enjoying cannabis edibles are fantastic ways to appreciate the effects of weed. The right one for you ultimately depends on your personal preferences.

Edible Cannabis Products vs. Flower: The Onset of Effects

Edibles made from the cannabis plant tend to have slower-onset effects compared to flower. This is because the cannabinoids in cannabis edibles reach your endocannabinoid system via your digestive system rather than your lungs, which is a longer process.

As a result, the effects of edibles take longer than the effects of flower to set in. However, when you use cannabis edibles, you can also usually look forward to longer-lasting effects.

For some, the faster-onset, shorter-lived high that flower produces may be a better option. However, many fans of cannabis edibles say that it's the long-lasting high that won them over

What's the Best Way To Enjoy Cannabis?

If you're looking for a rewarding, relaxing, mood-boosting high from the cannabis plant, you can definitely get your fix from both cannabis flower and cannabis edibles.

The consumption method that you choose is, in the end, a matter of personal preference. As you continue your cannabis journey, you might find that other methods of using weed start to seem more appealing, including trying out concentrates and vapes. We recommend not sticking to just one consumption method; branch out and explore everything the cannabis plant has to offer.
