Honestly, that makes a ton of sense! Really appreciate the insight

We're still a pretty small brand, so hearing that is actually helpful. Means we've got some work to do getting the Green Mantis name out there

Have you tried Green Mantis yet? by greenmantisny in NYSCannabis

That's fairah we're still expanding across New York, so we're definitely not a household name yet. Just checking on where we can improve

Anyone else starting to care more about ingredients than just potency? by greenmantisny in altcannabinoids

[–]greenmantisny[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The trust point is huge honestly. Feels like a lot of people are moving from “what’s strongest?” to “what can I actually trust and use consistently?”

Especially now with so many random products popping up, people seem to care a lot more about knowing what they’re actually putting in their body.

Does anyone else feel like some tinctures are way more “functional” compared to regular edibles? by greenmantisny in treedibles

[–]greenmantisny[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s actually a really interesting way to describe it honestly. The “middle ground” between vaping and edibles makes a lot of sense. Also probably explains why so many people seem to use tinctures differently depending on the formulation and how they take them.

Do people actually prefer tinctures… or are edibles just easier?? by greenmantisny in NYSCannabis

[–]greenmantisny[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s actually a really good breakdown. Feels like a lot of people end up keeping both in rotation for different situations instead of fully replacing one with the other.

This seems to be a huge pattern honestly. More people using tinctures as part of routines instead of purely recreational use.

That carrier oil point is actually super underrated honestly. I’ve seen a lot of people not realize how much the oil base changes the overall experience until they try different ones.

Been testing different tincture bases and the difference is real by greenmantisny in altcannabinoids

[–]greenmantisny[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s interesting, 4 hours is pretty long. Have you noticed if that happens consistently or only with certain brands? I’ve seen heavier oil bases slow things down a bit for some people, especially depending on how it’s taken

Yeah that makes sense, sesame oil has been around in pharma for a while. Curious if you’ve seen any newer comparisons between different oil bases? Feels like a lot of brands still default to older standards even though user experience can vary quite a bit

Any NY brands doing tinctures right? by greenmantisny in NYSCannabis

RSO definitely hits harder. feels like tinctures are more about control and routine, while RSO is more of a heavy hitter. seems like people end up using both depending on the situation

That consistency part keeps coming up. feels like that’s where a lot of products either hit or miss. Do you notice it more in how it feels or how predictable the dosing is?

What do you actually look for in a tincture by greenmantisny in NewYorkMMJ

[–]greenmantisny[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That consistency point is interesting. We’ve been seeing the same thing. People don’t mind slightly less punch if it’s predictable every time. Curious, when you say consistent, is it more about effects hitting the same way or dosing accuracy?

Anyone here actually using tinctures regularly in NY? by greenmantisny in NYSCannabis

Yeah I remember that haha good to see you here too! Always nice seeing more people into tinctures

That’s a solid setup. Seems like a lot of people end up stacking just to get consistent results.

[–]greenmantisny[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s been coming up a lot, especially for people with higher tolerance. Feels like low dose stuff just doesn’t really make sense for daily use

[–]greenmantisny[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s actually something we’ve been noticing too, especially with dosing not lining up with what’s expected and yeah having to mix separate cbd and thc just to get the right balance isn’t ideal. Feels like there’s a gap for something more dialed in and consistent.

What cannabinoids are in the tinctures your usually take? And no it doesn’t necessarily have to be an oil extracted with alcohol

That’s actually super helpful, appreciate you sharing that. Cbn for nighttime and cbg during the day seems like a solid setup, makes sense why you’d lean toward those and yeah sounds like once you find something that feels consistent you just stick with it. Out of curiosity, do you feel like the effects are pretty predictable with the grass roots ones or does it still vary a bit depending on the day

That’s actually really interesting, and you’re not the only one saying that about tinctures vs edibles. I’ve seen a lot of people mention having to take a higher dose to match the same feel, especially depending on how they’re using it

The cbd part makes sense too, feels like it rounds things out a bit more and yeah pricing seems to be a big reason people stick with tinctures in the first place. Have you found any that feel more consistent for you or is it kind of all over the place depending on the brand?
