When it comes to the modern world of marijuana, there are thousands of strains to choose from. Whether you're a novice or an old hippie, it can be overwhelming to keep it all straight, much less remember which one was your favorite high or helped alleviate your pain last month. If only there were a comprehensive, easy-to-use journal that included the most important information, going beyond the sativa-indica-hybrid labels and THC percentages.
As a professional photographer, specializing in cannabis macro-photography, and author of Beauty of Cannabis: A Visual Guide to 200+ Marijuana Strains, it was imperative that I manage my research to affectively share valuable information with my readers. So, after a few years, experimenting with different cannabis journals and consulting with dozens of patients, as well as professionals working in the marijuana industry (growers, producers, budtenders), I decided to upgrade and publish a new, more complete cannabis journal.
You'll notice this journal covers all the important consumption factors for logging various types of cannabis products, including flower, extracts, edibles, concentrates, hash, topicals, etc. With easy-to-use checkboxes and prompts, you can track:
- terpene levels
- cannabinoid percentages
- aromas & flavors
- positive vs. negative effects
- strain lineage
-place of purchase data
- grower/harvest information There are rating scales for strength, smoothness and physical effects. And of course, ample space for your personal notes.
As you become a "cannasseur" you'll discover the value in knowing what you liked and why you liked it. Tracking terpenes and cannabinoids reveals what's known as the entourage effect-the combination of the herb's flavors, aromas and healing compounds. Now when your favorite dispensary runs out of your favorite strain, being armed with this information can help you confidently find a product with similar levels of satisfaction. As you fill the pages of this journal, you'll be rewarded with your own personal strain database.
Knowledge is confidence!
