The world of smokeable hemp and hemp-derived THC products is an amazing and wonderful place but for everyday consumers the reward fades over time as they build what is known as a tolerance. To get back to reaping the full reward of your smoke session, you may want to take a tolerance break aka a T-break. Yes, taking a T-break requires you to avoid your favorite plant for a period of time but the outcome is worth the break! We’re going to talk about the science behind it, ways to occupy your time during one, and the other hidden advantages to a tolerance break. So, kick back in the cut, don’t fire one up, and let’s learn about taking a break from weed stuff.
How THC is Stored in the Body
THC is stored in the body’s fat cells. Simply stopping for a bit will allow the body to burn off some of those fat cells and help the body naturally reset its tolerance. With no new THC entering the cells, your body’s tolerance will decrease over time. Just like over exposure to anything, giving your body a break will benefit you long-term.
Ways to Occupy Your Free Time
During a tolerance break you will have time to kill and there are plenty of productive ways to fill that time. If you have been putting off tasks like housework or getting ahead on future tasks or work, you now have some extra time to devote to them. If you have a hobby or ever wanted to start a hobby, you have more time to do so during this period. Probably the most common thing to do during a tolerance break is exercise. This is good for the body and helps with the tolerance break as it burns fatty cells. The important thing is you have extra time and there is nothing more valuable than that.
Hidden Advantages of Tolerance Breaks
Outside the time regained there are other little advantages that make tolerance breaks well worth it. First, think of the money you can save during this time. Is there something you’ve been meaning to buy? Well, now you’ll have extra money for a bit to put towards it. Second, you can help end the stigma that THC is addictive by simply stopping for a bit and not falling into disarray. Lastly and most importantly, you’ll get that old time high that you may have forgotten. It will take you back to the days when you first discovered THC and the nostalgia will wash over you.

Most cannabis consumers think of THC as a singular compound when the reality is far from it. There are four major types of THC used for their medicinal and psychoactive effects and many other lesser-known forms that show up in products. The BIG 4 are Delta 8 THC, Delta 9 THC, THC-A, and THC-P. Today we will learn about THC-A specifically:
How is if different from what is sold at a typical dispensary
Why it is becoming many longtime smokers go to flower
Why some consider it “fake” weed
How it is legal
So, kick back in the cut, fire one up, and let’s learn about some weed stuff.
What is THC-A
THC-A or Tetrahydrocannabinol Acid if you want to be fancy is the primary form of THC produced by the cannabis plant. When heated it converts to Delta-9 THC. Delta-9 THC is often the form people are thinking of when they ask about “real” THC and in edibles and most vapes they’d be correct but when it comes to bud, they are missing the picture. THC-A makes up on average 98.5% of the total THC count in cannabis. THC-A is what gets you high when smoking flower so, when purchasing from a hemp shop or dispensary always look at the THC- A count.
How is THC-A Hemp Different Than What is Sold at A Typical Dispensary?
The easy answer is that it is not taxed at a ridiculous rate. For cannabis to qualify as THC-A hemp it only requires that it is has a dry weight of less than 0.3% Delta 9 THC. By that standard the vast majority of raw cannabis flower sold qualifies as THC-A hemp. To ensure they could get plants to stay around that 0.3% Delta 9 standard, growers crossed it with plants with a high CBG count. CBG might be the most beneficial compound for your health in cannabis (we can dig into that in another blog, another time). Now, we have THC-A hemp that tests as good or better than most flower found at typical dispensaries, but wait, we bumped the CBG count up significantly. Next time you buy from a typical dispensary, look at the Delta 9 THC count. If it is less than 0.3% (it probably will be) or says THC-A on the label, know you could have bought your flower cheaper elsewhere.
Why Many Smokers Go to THC-A Flower
I’ll keep this short and just give you a list of reasons.
It isn’t taxed nearly as heavy
It gets you just as high
The extra CBG in theory should make it slightly better health wise.
Most Hemp shops have less wait time, and their staff must be educated on the products they sell because many first-time customers will come in with the assumption it is all “fake”.
Why Some People Call It “Fake” Weed
The reason THC-A hemp is called “fake” weed is due to ignorance caused by lack of topic education brought on by the government’s futile war to demonize the plant. Little research existed on cannabis until the last 40 years when interest picked back up for its medicinal use to curb opiate addiction. Now, we live in the information age. You have a supercomputer in your pocket and hopefully an educated budtender in front of you. If people fail to listen to the budtender, fail to research what they are explaining, and choose to call THC-A hemp “fake” weed then there is nothing I could write today that would change their mind. The only thing that could change their mind is failing a drug test for THC (Which they most definitely will) after smoking “fake” weed and no one wants that.
How is This Legal?
The 2018 Farm Bill set the definition of hemp-based products as those having less than 0.3% Delta 9 THC by dry weight. This unknowingly made most cannabis grown in the county to now be classified as hemp, but it took a few years for the public to catch on as many were happy their states were now recreational. First, they realized they could still make high powered edibles and qualify them as hemp making them legal to see in most states. It wasn’t until the last 4 years that the THC-A hemp flower explosion happened as more and more people started to notice the weed that bought at their local dispensary should qualify as hemp and set out to prove that point.
Don’t Knock It Until You Try it
After reading this article, if you’ve never visited a hemp shop that sells THC-A flower, I implore you to do so. If you are still skeptical when you arrive, I dare you to ask for their best. What do you have to lose? It is cheaper and more convenient than most typical dispensaries. Find a hemp shop that educates and strives to carry quality products, there are many who do and twice as many who don’t but if you find the right one it will blow your local dispensary out of the water. THC-A hemp is not “fake” weed. It is just weed or maybe even weed that is better for you.

Not too often do we get to celebrate two awesome holidays on the same day, but this is one of those years. 4/20 falls on the same Sunday as Easter! Two very social holidays that couldn’t be more different. One is very child friendly, and one is very NOT! So how does one go about picking products to enjoy the day and not disturb the vibe of Easter? We got all your tips, tricks and products to boot. So, kick back in the cut, fire one up, and let’s learn about some fun holiday weed stuff.
For Flying Under the Radar
Almost everyone will be celebrating Easter but far fewer will be celebrating 4/20. You may be at a social function that stigmatizes cannabis use and want to go unnoticed. No better way than with an infused drink and we have quite the selection to choose from! For those who want to keep things light we have a variety of 4mg seltzers and sodas from Lemon Seltzer to Punch Pop Soda, we have you covered. If you need a step up from that, look towards our 10mg Grape Bluff Pop or maybe a 25mg Green Goddess drink like this Dragon Fruit. For the heavier consumer, we carry a host of Uncle Skunk’s 100mg sodas like this Grape Soda. We also carry some non-carbonated options that are great for longer storage after being opened like this 150mg Chronic Harvest Lemonade.
For When You Need to Sneak Away
When you’ve seen enough plastic grass in baskets that your mind wants to melt, it may be time to put some grass in a bowl of your own or enjoy your favorite vape. Grab a relative and say you’re going for a “cousin walk” and come back happy. It is a holiday tradition after all! Our smokable products are only available in store but are worth the trip. We have disposable vapes ranging from .5g up to the massive 5g Litty. We carry individual pre-rolls, 2pks and 6pks. We also have multiple tiered pricing for flower and have NO PURCHASE LIMIT.

While the younglings gorge on Easter chocolate you can gorge on some THC chocolate of your own, just make use to keep out of reach of the younglings. We have a host of chocolate options from 5mg Berry Crunchy Balls to 99mg Chocolate Bars like our French Toast Bar. If you really want to have fun, you can make a chocolate bunny bong by watching this video.

By this point most people have a general understanding of the benefits of CBD but, with advancements in hemp and cannabis science more people are becoming aware of CBG and CBN and are increasingly curious as to their differences. More and more people are purchasing products containing CBG and CBN as they focus on more specific aliments and CBD has become less of the go to product for non-psychoactive compounds produced by the hemp plant. CBD still holds a very important role but is no longer the most sought-after non-psychoactive cannabinoid. We’re going to take a look at how we got here. So, kick back in the cut, fire one up, and let’s learn about some weed stuff!
Why We All Know CBD
The main reason we all know about CBD is because it is the most widely researched cannabinoid in the world. As research into the hemp plant continues, we continue to learn more about the 100+ other cannabinoids, how to isolate them for use, and exactly what they are good at doing. CBD is the second most purchased cannabinoid behind THC but at this point should it be? With the emergence of CBG and CBN, CBD is more of a facilitator making consumers more comfortable buying new products and it is doing exceedingly well as consumers focus on their specific needs.
Why CBG and CBN Are Better for Specific Needs
CBD, CBG, and CBN all have things they do well in common like help with sleep, general pain relief, and reduction in anxiety and stress but when it comes to specific issues in those areas CBG and CBN start to shine. CBD is primarily good for bone related pain, but the two most common uses of CBD, sleep and stress, are better suited to CBG and CBN. CBG works well with such as nerve and muscle pain while also helping with brain activity reducing anxiety and stress better than CBD alone. CBN, on the other hand, is exceptional as a sleep aid and works better than CBD for general pain relief. The downside to CBN is it will make you drowsy but if that is what you wanted it will exceed expectations!
Why Pairing with THC is so Beneficial
THC will always be top of the food chain for cannabinoids when it comes to help with sleep, pain, stress and anxiety. Combined cannabinoids in a product will lead to a more well-rounded experience and a greater likelihood of achieving desired results.If you arn’t worried about trying THC or have a job that prohibits it, there are THC options available. If you are using THC alone for non-recreational purposes, pairing it with CBG and CBN will show increased effectiveness.
Products You Should Try!
In store we have a host of THC free tinctures to try but online we have two new products to address the need for CBG and CBN options. For those looking to reduce stress/anxiety or with soft tissue concerns we have a hemp-derived 10mg Delta 9 THC 10mg CBG 10mg CBD gummy. The 1:1:1 ratio provides a balance of all desired effects. These strawberry gummies are meant for daytime use but can also be used at night to help with minor sleep issues. It is the daytime “my body hurts but I have work to do” gummy. We have the same 10mg 1:1:1 ratio but paired with CBN for those with more chronic pain issues and serious sleep issues. These grape gummies are meant for nighttime use but can be used in the daytime if you have time to nap or won’t need to do much physical activity. It’s the “my body hurts, and I just need sleep so I can do all again tomorrow” gummy. Both gummies come in a 30ct container for $40.

The evolution of THC consumption has rapidly increased by way of concentrates. These high-powered extracts have been the daring of long-time canna-consumers, and more newcomers are tying them as well! From carts to dabs, the new darlings have overshadowed the old standard of concentrates like Bubble Hash to the point where many have forgotten what it is and does.
Luckily, we are here to remind you of the uses and joys of our hemp-derived THCA Bubble Hash. So, kick back in the cut, fire one up, and let’s learn about some weed stuff.
History of Hash
The term hash is derived from the word “hashish”. The first mentions of hashish date back to the late 10th century. Hashish was first developed as way to easily transport the resins created by the plant. Early means of consumption were simply eating the straight THC resin, but as you can imagine, it isn’t the best taste in the world. Hash went through many incarnations and consumption methods before Bubble Hash became the belle of the ball.
Bubble Hash was introduced to the western world in a High Times ad, of all places, by David Paul Watson aka Skunkman Sam in 1987. Over the years, pioneers such as Mila Jansen, aka Hash Queen, and Marcus Gary Richardson, aka Bubbleman, helped refine the process of extraction to give us the versatile high-peered product we know & enjoy today.
Bubble Hash: What it Looks Like and How to Consume It!
Bubble Hash has a sandy-like consistency that is often pressed into all shapes and sizes. It is most commonly consumed via smoking or using it to make edibles. Smoking Bubble Hash on its own isn’t for the faint of heart. It can be consumed via dabbing, though it makes quite the mess.
Most who consume bubble hash on its own use a good old fashioned water bong, or gravity bong, for the truly insane. Bubble Hash most commonly ends up as bong or bowl topper to add to your flower or as blend-in for your joints. You can learn methods of adding it to your joints HERE.
The last option is to cook with it! It can blend with most butters and oils to cook, but remember, with Bubble Hash a little goes a long way. Your dosage can be based on how much hash you use regardless of medium. 1g is 1000mg. You will lose some of that in the cooking process, but it is always better to air on the side of caution and just count it as though none of it dissipated. As an example, if you are looking for 10mg pieces you’d need to have 100 servings.
RiverBluff Collective’s Bubble Hash
We try to have at least 1 strain of bubble hash on hand at all times. The strains can vary and are only available in-store. If you want to give it a whirl, it is best to call the store to see what strain we have in it just to make sure it suits your tastes. Remember, your budtender is your friend! If you are curious about a product, ask and they will tell you all they know on the topic to make sure you make an informed decision.

The air grows frigid as people start to spend more time inside. Winter is coming! The change in seasons can change the routine of a cannaconsumer and sometimes even the products they consume. People often want ways to consume more incognito when indoors, fast when outdoors, something in the spirit of winter, and something to gift to someone or themselves. Luckily, you can find all of that with our hemp-derived THC products at RiverBluff Collective! So, kick back in the cut, fire one up, and let’s learn about our favorite wintertime products.
Chocolate Bars for Hot Chocolate
Our delicious chocolate bars melt smoothly in hot milk or water to make delectable variations of hot chocolate. Make a peppermint paddy with our mint bar, use the s’mores bar to make a Campfire hot chocolate, or pick up a classic milk chocolate bar to get the iconic taste you know & love. If you want something more experimental, try our French toast bar for a mix of fall and winter! For those looking for a nighttime snack, try our cookies and cream bars! You can get all of these bars in-store or online HERE.
Vape Pens
With the colder temps, people who like to smoke often look for alternative ways to consume so as not to face the weather (or at least limit the time they do so!) Vapes work extremely well for this purpose. Many people and places still allow vaping indoors while smoking is strictly prohibited in those same places. If you are a traditional herb smoker, a good vape can save you a lot of headaches. There is no need fight your lighter against the elements, many places can’t distinguish between an herb and nicotine vape allowing you to fly under the radar inside, and if you must go outside, it takes fewer pulls off a concentrate vape to get the desired effects, limiting your time shivering. Unfortunately, our vapes are only available in-store but you can check out the smokables page to get an idea of products and pricing. It is always a good idea to call ahead to check availability of certain strains as they rotate often!
Mini Pre-Roll Packs
Mini pre-roll packs, often referred to as “dog walkers”, are packs of joints ranging from .35g-.5g joints. Our .35g packs come with 8 in a pack for 2.8g total and our .5g packs come 6 per pack for an even 3g. These minis are perfect for limiting time outdoors and preventing illness as they are meant for a single person. The great thing is they come in packs so you can just give one to a friend for the holiday spirit and avoid exchanging the common cold & more. These products are also only available in-store but can also be found on our smokables page!
A Bud Vase
Bud Vases are esthetically pleasing and functional! When not in use, the vase looks like a wonderful piece of flower glass art but can be quickly adapted to make it a bong like you’ve never hit before. These beauties hide in plain sight and often go unnoticed. They make for a great gift for the cannaconsumer in your life or for a gift for yourself after completing all your holiday shopping. These are only available in store so stop in and say high to our budtenders are ask them to show you one.
RiverBluff DRINKS!
Maybe the best option on the list as it covers all the bases. No need to go out outside, no need to inhale anything, super incognito, and easy to share!. We have seltzers and soda pop in both low dose options and as well as shots in higher dose options both online and instore. These are great for get togethers where others may be drinking spirits, and you don’t, or for a gathering of canna-consumers that don’t want to smoke outside. If you’ve never tried a hemp-derived THC infused drink, there is no time like the present!

Most people have a dream smoke spot but one of the most elusive has to be The White House. It is possibly the most protected place on the planet, yet tales of toking on the property have come up multiple times. RiverBluff Collective rummaged through those stories to find the most legendary and noteworthy, the most obvious, and the most peculiar. No matter where your dream spot is to smoke, it is attainable because of these stories. No place is out of reach if you put your mind to it! Kick back in the cut, fire one up, and let’s learn about some legendary weed stuff.
Willie Nelson
The most known face in cannabis history hands down! Stories of his tour buses getting raided became comic fodder in the 1990s. Celebrities and politicians alike love him. Songs have been written about smoking with like I’ll Never Smoke Weed with Willie Again! By Scott Emerick and the late Tobey Keith. Stories of Willie Nelson enjoying a good high are widely known but none more so than his trip to The White House roof. Willie told a story about how he and one of The White House staff went onto the roof and smoked a joint. It became the myth of legend but was recently confirmed by the most credible source possible, Jimmy Carter! In a documentary titled Jimmy Carter: Rock & Roll President “When Willie Nelson wrote his autobiography, he proclaimed that he smoked pot in the White House one night when he was spending the night with me, and he says that his companion that shared the pot with him was one of the servants in the White House. That is not exactly true — it actually was one of my sons, which he didn’t want to categorize as a pot-smoker like him.” In the late 1970s the stigma was still very real, and Willie didn’t want to have Chip Carter’s life held back if people knew so he lied.
Snoop Dogg
Possibly the second most recognized toker of all time, Snoop was bound to be on this list. The slick rap icon is well known for his advocacy for the plant. Heather B from SiriusXM interviewed Snoop in 2016 and asked, “Where is the ‘one place’ he’d always wanted to smoke but never thought he’d get the chance?” Snoop quickly replied, “The White House.” Snoop was then pressed for further details and was eager to tell the story stating, “So we at the White House, you understand me, for a celebration or what not, for Herbie Hancock. So, we had a little dinner and I’m like, ‘where the bathroom at?’ they like,‘It’s over there’. So, I’m like, ‘Alright cool’. Slide over to the bathroom. I look around, check the surroundings, make sure there ain’t no CIA around. Light up some tissue, just to see if anything gonna happen, tissue works. Boom. Next thing I do is pull that thing out of my sock.” He then went on to smoke until he heard someone coming his way. Stories like this make Snoop the legend he is!
JFK
This one may be obvious or completely blindsiding. John Fitzgerald Kennedy is revered by many and hated by others. He was a war hero but also a serial philanderer. His tragic assassination has left history one of the greatest what ifs in American history. During his extramarital affairs he entered a sexual relationship with American socialite Mary Meyer, the ex-wife of a top CIA agent and close friend to Jackie Kennedy. In the summer of 1962, JFK “joked” about wanting to smoke some pot. Meyer is believed to have obtained the pot from Washinton Post executive Jim Truitt. She brought 6 joints, and the president smoked three of them claiming he didn’t feel anything. He then closed his eyes, refused a fourth, and realized he was HAF, to use the parlance of our times. Now stoned, the president allegedly babbled in a concerned manner, “Imagine if the Russians tried something now.” He then supposedly stated to Mary, “This pot isn’t like cocaine. I’ll get you some cocaine.” For a guy who was a hero in the Navy, he missed the boat on that one.

Scary Movies are a staple of the Halloween season and cannabis and hemp consumption comes with an untimely demise is a trope audience members wait for. Still, there are exceptions where the adult use cannabis consumer is the hero and others that are just fun to get blazed and giggle to. Cannabis, candy, and scary movies make great company as the season begins to change. The jump scares, yelling don’t go in there at the TV and laughing at all the in-jokes help remind us we are curious and still alive. In honor of Halloween, we’ve put together a list of some of our favorites for you. So, kick back in the cut, fire one up and let’s learn about some scary movies weed stuff.
WARNING: If you haven’t seen these movies yet, stoner spoilers are ahead!
The one that started it all! The franchise started in 1980 and by the third installment we saw our first cannabis user, Chuck, brutally murdered by the hulking villain, Jason Voorhees. Chuck stoned to the bone on some 80s swag gets curious as the power fails. He goes to the basement to check the fuse box and finds the masked man waiting and was electrocuted shortly thereafter. Chuck was the first of us to get killed but not the last. The Friday the 13th Franchise set in place many of the rules that would be discussed in our next entry.
Brought to us by one of the masters of the genre, Wes Craven, the original movie is a handbook on how to survive a horror movie. Randy the movie buff of the group lays out at a party. Though Randy never smokes cannabis on screen it is heavily implied that he partakes. His rules are as follows:
1. Never have sex!
2. Never drink or do drugs!
3. Never say you’ll be right back!
Ghostface makes sure that all those rules were proven true in the first movie. This was really the first horror movie to blend comedy and scary together that appealed to stoners in a major way and birthed an entirely new franchise that would further poke fun at the genre.
The franchise on this list with the least scary moments and the most stoner moments. A horror parody series that held back no punches and took shots at every serious horror film. The most notable scene comes from the first movie when Ghostface, yes same Ghostface, smokies a blunt with Shorty Meeks, played by Marlon Wayans. The two break out into a rap that will be remembered by its fans forever. The franchise took shots at everything that is and was pop culture, nothing was safe, and it was parody at its best which led to a flood of other parody movies.
The Cabin in the Woods broke the fourth wall in ways never done before. The movie revolves around a typical group of college kids you’d find in a horror movie, fully equipped with their own wise stoner Marty. The group was unknowingly taking part in an ancient group of blood rituals needed to save the world. In the end, Marty becomes the most heroic character and keep in mind Chris Hemsworth was also in this movie. If Marty was successful or failed is a matter of debate but what isn’t is that he broke the trope that stoners were easy prey!
This underground cult classic is a must see. No need to break the fourth wall if there are no walls. This mocumentary follows a man known as Leslie Vernon as documentary crew follows him around preparing for his burst into the hall of greats with Micheal, Freddy, and Jason. It only has one scene where cannabis is smoked, and Leslie calls them easy prey because they have no stamina or cardio. It includes cameos of some of horror’s all-time greats in new roles and pays homage to the films that came before it. It is cleverly written, quirky and funny, and filled with plot twists. No one knows about this movie. Tell everyone about it!

Most people who smoke joints eventually want to try out something new and more intense. An infused joint would be their perfect next step! An infused joint is a pre-rolled cannabis joint that is enhanced with additional cannabis extracts like hash, kief, or live resin. Some burn great and some not so much, but no one denies their effectiveness. Infused pre-rolls are heavy hitters and more costly due to their infusion of cannabis concentrates, but what if you could make them yourself? Would it be cheaper? Would it burn more consistently? Yes, and yes but constantly doesn’t necessarily mean consistently better. That will depend on the time and care you put into your creation. So, kick back in the cut, fire one up, and let’s learn about making some concentrate infused stuff!
The Parfait (Cone)
The parfait is the easiest to produce infused pre-roll by far. Let’s start at packing a cone first. You pack a cone like a little musket. Put ground herb in top and use the stick to pack it. Repeat until desired smoking size then twist and fire. To make the parfait, you do the same process but will add in the concentrate of your choice at the dosage you want. The best parfaits seem to be 5 layers going from herb to concentrate to herb to concentrate, to herb. You’ll want to use a dryer concentrate like sand, bubble hash, or some badders.
The Snake (Hand Rolled)
The snake bumps up the difficulty a notch as you’ll need to know how to hand roll. We won’t be going over how to roll a joint here as there are a thousand ways to roll a joint by hand and videos explaining how to do most of them. The best advice is to pick your method and watch it be done multiple times. Get some wraps and herb and vow not to smoke until you roll something worthy of smoking. With that said, when you lay your herb into your paper put a line of whatever concentrate you prefer in and twist it up. You can use less dry concentrates here as the herb will get coated as rolling. Speaking of coating…
The Coating
There is another easy way to infuse your pre-roll and it is as simple as it sounds. Once you have your pre-roll prepared, use a wetter stickier concentrate and give your roll a light coating. Then take a dryer concentrate and roll the now sticky joint in it to give it a new outside texture. These are tougher to dose, so be careful when preparing and firing up!
The Doom Bringer
This method takes all you’ve learned thus far and rolls it into one. It also is the easiest to explain because you’ve learned all the methods already!
