The ongoing pandemic had made social distancing a norm. Although restaurants and party venues are open, large gatherings are still discouraged. You may also want to skip parties at home to ensure that everyone stays safe from the virus. It may be bad news for cannabis enthusiasts who love to party with their gang.

But you can still have a great time while keeping your distance, just by planning virtual smoke sessions through the pandemic year. Most users may have already arranged such sessions, but you will need some tips if it is your first time. Here are some you can follow to have a great one.

Have your tech in place

The first thing you will need to have a virtual get-together is a meeting app for everyone who wants to join. Fortunately, everyone is comfortable with group video calls and conferencing apps these days.

So you have to decide on a common video app that works for all your friends. Once you have tech in place, you are all set to go ahead.

Set a time that suits everyone 

After finding a common platform to connect, you also need to decide a timing that suits everyone. Of course, you cannot have a random session in the middle of a workday, even if you are working from home.  

Weekends are apt for such parties as you need not worry about waking up early and logging in to work the next morning. You may have them more frequently if you can manage the dosing and steer clear of the high. 

Invest in supplies and equipment

This one is a no-brainer, as every guest is responsible for oneself at a virtual party. Have ample supplies of your cannabis products to keep you going through the session.

You will need some equipment as well. If you are just starting, explore fat buddha water pipes and look for easy-to-use accessories you can handle without guidance. Seasoned users may opt for more complex equipment, but make sure you have whatever you need.

Be ready to experiment

When virtual sessions become regular amid the pandemic, it makes sense to experiment. Try new strains to experience different outcomes from different CBD and THC ratios. Ideally, you should seek recommendations from fellow-users to find a strain that is right for you. You can also pick some information online to have clear and realistic expectations about the experience.

Take it easy

The final piece of advice for first-timers indulging in a virtual cannabis session is to take it slow and easy. Since you are going to do it alone, safety should be your top priority.

It is all the more crucial for newbies who don’t have much idea about their tolerance levels and reactions. But you need not worry- as long as you don’t overdo, you will have a good experience. 

A great virtual cannabis session is easy to achieve, provided that you are well-prepared and know your basics. Just take the plunge with your gang and have a great time, even from a distance!
