The dried, cured cannabis flower (bud) is typically smoked or vaporized. It contains a mix of cannabinoids (such as THC and CBD) and terpenes, which provide medicinal effects. Flower is most commonly smoked using a pipe, bong, or rolled into joints, but it can also be vaporized using a dry herb vaporizer. The effects are typically felt within 5 to 10 minutes after inhalation and last for 1 to 3 hours.
