MARIJUANA TINCTURES

Edible marijuana can be classified into different categories depending on the type in which they occur or how they are ingested into the body. Edible foods, marijuana infused edible drinks, edible capsules, edible powders and marijuana edible tinctures are some categories. Marijuana tinctures are marijuana extracts which are either alcohol-based or plant base and more specifically vegetable glycerin based. Of the two, alcohol is the best recommended solvent in the process of extracting the tincture. 

Why alcohol? 

Alcohol and especially ethanol   is hailed as very effective in breaking down all the acidulous and alkaline components of the marijuana plant hence ensuring an effective extraction of the chemical compounds leading to a better and purer extract. While plant based solvents can also be used, they may not efficiently and effectively be able to extract all the chemical compounds from the marijuana plant. 

Classification of marijuana tinctures 

Marijuana tinctures are classified into two main groups. The first group is the TCH tincture characterized with psychoactive high properties. The other category of Marijuana tincture is the CBD tincture whose unique usefulness includes treatment of high blood pressure, convulsions, bone degeneration, seizures and spasms, cancerous cell growth and artery blockage among other many commendable benefits. 

How to use marijuana tinctures? 

One way to use tincture is the beneath the tongue delivery method.  In this method, you measure the amount you desire to take and then drop them into your sublingual part of the mouth- under the tongue. A dropper such as an eye dropper can be used in the process. Absorption of the tincture into the blood stream occurs through osmosis process 

Ingestion is another way in which you can use a marijuana tincture. Add the tincture into food or beverages which you are about to eat.  

Onset and duration of effects 

Within half an hour after sublingual administration of the marijuana tincture, the appropriate effects, depending on whether CBD or THC was used, will occur. These effects will last for a good 2-4 hours after onset. In contrast, ingestion administered tincture effects start being felt after half an hour to an hour and thirty minutes and the effects as expected, would last longer between four to eight hours. This extended period of time can be attributed to metabolism processes that are involved until the tincture is released into the blood stream. 

 

Which is the best way to use marijuana tincture? 

This first of all is depended on the preferences of the user in terms of how long one wishes to wait until effects occur and how long one would wish to experience the effects. Still, If one prefers a more pure marijuana tincture into his blood system, sublingual method would be more advisable because absorption is direct into the blood stream and there is no mixing with food and other gastric components as would be the case with ingestion where digestion is involved. 

Conclusion 

Tinctures, while seen as just another route of administration, is a more effective way, in terms of speed and purity, of delivering marijuana into the body system compared to other edibles like foods and marijuana infused drinks.  Caution should be exercised by beginners and it is recommended to start with two to three drops of marijuana tincture for the new timers in order to avoid undesired effects.

Factors Though Have Contributed to Failure of Cannabis Stock In Canada

Since legalization of cannabis in Canada last year, the stocks have dropped drastically. In the previous year, the stock was trading $12.52 per share. The stocks are now trading at around $4.16 which is     a third of the initial price.

For investors, this might be seen as the best time to purchase the stocks; however, chances are that the stocks may drop further.

Let’s see what is leading to the failure of cannabis stocks in Canada.

  1. Cannabis Low Sales

Most cannabis companies in Canada have experienced drop in sales. This is because the industry is still in its early stages of growth.

The earlier rise was probably contributed to the promises of growth in the industry and potential capability in the market.

However, it is worth noting that Canadian market only had an estimate of $5.2 for a period of  five years.

May be increase of retail pot shops will increase the sales in cannabis and hence increase the share value of cannabis stocks.

2. Oversupply

Due to legalization of the cannabis and high expectations of demand and growth in the industry, the supply has increased.

Due to legalization of cannabis in Canada, there was high expectation of drastic growth in the industry. However, the industry is still young and hence the demand is not as expected.

Oversupply and low demand of the products have also contributed to the failure of cannabis stock in Canada.

  1. High taxation

Expected high taxation of the cannabis has also contributed to failure in cannabis stock in Canada. Though the government has legalized cannabis, there might be high taxation and this fact is pushing investors away from the industry.

Heavy tax on the product is likely to promote the black market rather than promoting the legal industry.

With all those factors that led to failure of cannabis stocks in Canada, what are key takeaways for investors?

  • One of the biggest challenges in the industry has been sales estimation of cannabis. It is likely for the demand to rise after legalization and hence this might be the best time to purchase the stocks.
  • There are high chances of growth in the industry as Canada is planning to expand their market to overseas.
  • Canadian government acknowledged the fact that there are only a few retail shops available and they are willing to facilitate more retail shops to boost the cannabis sales.
  • Domestic demand is likely to increase hence rise in cannabis
  • The Canadian government is aware that high taxation of the product can only decrease the sales in the legal market and hence they are likely to reduce the tax. Reduction of tax will promote the legal market while increase in tax will promote the black market.
  • For investors who are focused on long term projects, this is the best time to venture into cannabis stocks as even though the stock value might continue to decrease, the stocks will eventually rise.

With all  the reasons identified that has caused failure of cannabis stocks in Canada, It  all depends on the long term investors to revive the value of stocks in the sector.
