Hey bud builders! I have a question maybe someone has some knowledge on or more experience with.
I use cannabis medicinally for insomnia mostly and have been experimenting with a variety of forms and cannabinoids for a few years now to help me sleep.
What Ive found is that ~1-2 hours after smoking/vaping/dabing cannabis I get really sleepy and then have the best sleep ever and wake up fully refreshed.
I semi recently stopped being able to grow and smoke/vape so Ive switched to some medical oil based extracts purchased from licensed producers and I'm not getting what I hoped from them and wanted to know if anyone has some scientific understanding of what happens when you burn out at the end of the high.
I've recently been trying CBN mixed with CBD, and THC mixed with CBN in the form of oil based tinctures. I find they do not come close to the quality of sleep I was getting from vaping/smoking/dabbing.
The CBN helps a tiny bit but doesn't really do much. The THC works but I'd have to take it way before bed time to get the sleepy effect I'm looking for, anything later than 5+ hours before bed time and I find my mind still races at bed time, plus the later I take it, the harder it is to wake up and go.
If I smoke/vape/dab some cannabis about an hour or two before bed then I have an amazing sleep and wake up super refreshed ready to go.
My question is what causes this and is there a way to get the same effects using edibles without consuming them at lunch time? Is this the effect of the terpenes coming out to play when inhaled? Is it possible to get the same effects quicker when inhaling, ie. 30 minutes before bed? I find if I am high I can't sleep due to my mind racing, but if Im burnt out after an afternoon of consuming then its golden.
Thank you for reading!
