Average daily use

Light user. Some stoners smoke an ounce a day.

 

Ultra Light user.
1 gram of weed is 150mg
I use 150mg of edible every day to control pain.
Edibles you get 5 times the effect as you do from smoked.

Hoping that you’re wrong and that this forum attracts heavy users and they are the vocal ones. I’m amazed when I read about the amount that members grow and amount they consume. I like to believe that they are the minority and that people like the OP and I better represent the average cannabis user.

 

Average cannabis users definitely smoke more then 18gs a year lol

 

On second look, you’re right. Got my numbers mixed up.

If it had been 1.5 gram / week, I would have had a better argument. Would even that be low for the average GC member? Sure. But I don’t think that accounts for the general population that are more likely to be social users.

I was very active on a homebrew forum. I brewed, on average, two ten gallon batches a month. Yet my equipment and practice was “light” when compared to many of the members. For the most part, anyone who visits one of these forums would not be seen as a light user from the outside.

I’m rambling to cover my ass. Sorry!

 

from my own observed experience with people that smoke, 1.5g a month is pretty light lol.

Thats about what I use in a day, if I have it. I cycle through various forms of cannabis as not to burn myself out too hard. Solo smoker too I dont have friends anymore. I just need the benefits while I work.

 

The majority of members on this weed board not surprisingly do so regularly, many daily, and fair numbers at all times of the day. Understandable for those with chronic pain issues but there are also those for which their whole life revolves around getting high, day after day, week after week, month after month. At issue is the more one consumes, the more often one consumes, the less CB-1 receptors are available at one's nerve synaptic gaps due to down regulation, that causes tolerance buildup such that it is impossible to get as high as someone that hasn't say consumed in a week smoking just a little regardless of what and how much one consumes.

Accordingly regular users over a month must consume far more than 1.5 gram that is about 2 joints worth. The above noted, research shows the majority of USA weed users are infrequent users like you and this person. Over decades have preferred that style because I have a very full life that is not about weed and when I do use, want to get strongly high that requires regular tolerance breaks. Thus not a fan of the weak high I get if smoking frequently.

 

Very Light user. I smoke / vape anywhere from 2- 4 grams per day depending on if I also use concentrates and/or edibles. My brother who lives with me smokes about the same. When I was younger a half ounce a day wasn’t odd but that usually included sharing with others.

 

I’d have to say I’m at around 2-5g a day right now depending on how much pain I’m in. Grow goals; around 4lbs a year.

Half of that is at night in capsule for sleep/pain and the rest over the course of the day in both capsule and smoke.

None. Gave it up, I'm young, a long long long life of pain ahead of me. Constantly get CHS even from a couple weeks of relief, then a whole new monster to deal with for three weeks.

Stopped drinking too,

I've never used a vape, and I hear they conserve more weed, but even so 1.5g a month seems light. If I don't have to save money I probs would go through 1.5-2 oz a month. When I'm smart with my weed, and smoking from bowls/bongs, I go through about an oz a month, and would consider myself a moderately heavy user. Time of day also matters. If you smoke 2g at night to sleep or something, I would consider you light or moderate. If you smoke multiple times a day every day, it would consider you a more heavy user, even if you still were only totaling 2g. Overall 1.5 aint bad. I easily go through that in a day, if I have the money to spare.

 

Well, I'm 55 and I smoke at least an oz a month. Although it's for both recreational and medicinal purposes.

 

I smoke anywhere from 1/4 ounce to a half ounce in a week. Weed is legal here, you can smoke in public, I have a med card AND a great connection, so it’s cheap either way.

 

1.5gs a month is definitely pretty light use. I can rarely just get stoned all day so I usually just take a some bong hits or vape a couple bowls through a day. I think a lot of people use a lot at one time, daily and that builds their tolerance quite a bit higher. Like I smoke daily but usually not much at a time and not all day so my tolerance stays pretty low.

Neither is right or wrong but factor in your budget, medical needs, how often you can be high and all that. Like some may grow (unlimited supply for cheap basically) and may be able to get high all day without it negatively affecting anything else. Others may have to pay a lot for weed and due to work or other factors can't smoke that often.

 

2 Grams a day plus edibles I never leave cloud 9

 

I'm 63. I was steadily consuming a quarter a week for years while I worked and didn't grow. Now I'm retired and grow. Last years harvest was over 2lbs, consisting of 5 varieties. I have been carefully curing them in mason jars since Oct-Nov. Each month they are stronger leading me to believe I'm curing them properly. I prefer 58%-62% humidity. Since I have a candy shop of choices in the closet, I probably smoke 3-4 joints worth of bong bowls a day, from morning til evening, with stretches of non smoking, so not chain smoking. Just sprouted the first (auto-flowering, 'Dark Devil') seeds of the year now that Spring has arrived. Next month we'll sprout the photperiods that will go in the ground in June, giant sized, started in 10gallon fiber pots then transplanted like shrubs. So much fun, they were taller than me last year. We get loads of manure from our neighbor friend so they don't need much more than sufficient rainfall/watering. Anyway I smoke more now that I have more time on my hands. I have ptsd, anxiety, panic attacks, etc., and use for self medication. I do love to feed my head though so I harvest before much amber is showing. Probably between 1 and 1.5 oz a month. Sorry so chatty, it's my first post.
