Small Axe Cannabis Guide

If you’re new to cannabis… this guide will get you up to speed on what we make, what to expect, and how to decide which product is right for you.

Finding the right fit

What Product is Right for Me?

We make three main product categories: edibles, vape pens, and cannabis flower.

We generally refer to the effects of our products as either being ``psychoactive`` or ``non-psychoactive``. Psychoactive means it will get you ``high`` or produce a noticeable change in your perception, where non-psychoactive effects don't shift your reality.

If it's your first time with a psychoactive product, we suggest trying a Toke vape pen and taking only a small amount. This is because it has the quickest onset time (10 mins), and you can more accurately assess how it's going to effect you.

Alternately, if you'd like to start with our edibles - you should start with half or even a quarter dose. Our edibles are shaped as four sided pyramids - which makes them easy to divide into smaller amounts. Edibles usually take an hour to begin working... so don't take more until you're absolutely certain you require it.

We also make two non-psychoactive edibles which receive incredible feedback from our customers: Mellow Moon (our sleep product) and Mellow Mood (our feel good recipe). These two products work with melatonin and serotonin, respectively, to produce effects alongside our cannabinoids.

Cannabis isn't for everyone

Who Should Use Our Products?

Cannabis is a powerful drug with the ability to change your perception. For many people, it produces a sense of wellbeing and happiness but for others it can create anxiety and paranoia. If you've never had cannabis, we suggest starting with a small amount and gauging its effects carefully. We refuse to sell our products to anyone under the age of 21 or those with contraindicated medical conditions.
Differences in Psychoactive Cannabinoids

Why would I want THC-D8 or THC-D9 or THC-A?

Tetrahydrocannabinol (or THC) comes in several molecular forms including: THC-D8, THC-D9 & THC-A

The Delta-9 variant is what everyone has come to colloquially refer to as ``THC`` because it is the primary psychoactive cannabinoid in marijuana. Delta-8 is a very similar compound that has the same overall shape, but has a double bond in a different location. This difference creates a slightly lower binding affinity to the receptor and as a result can make a softer, easier feeling.

All variants of THC work in concert with other cannabinoids to produce the end effect in consumers. For instance, CBD and THC-D9 might compete for the same receptor site and produce a slightly different feeling depending on how much of each are in the recipe.

We use either D8 or D9 in our edible recipes (along side other cannabinoids) depending on the effects we're aiming to achieve. THC-A is the precursor to both of these compounds and what we use exclusively in our vape pens.

Hemp vs. Marjuana

How is this legal?

The only difference between hemp and marijuana is how much of a single cannabinoid they produce. In December 2018, the enactment of the 2018 Farm Bill established hemp as encompassing all varieties of cannabis containing less than 0.3% THC-D9. Any cannabis plant exceeding this threshold is classified as marijuana; however, from a scientific standpoint, they all fall under the umbrella term of cannabis.

Every ingredient in our products is sourced from federally legal hemp plants. We meticulously craft our recipes, subjecting each batch to rigorous testing to guarantee full compliance with legal standards.

Products you can trust.

Forbidden Fruits

Featuring the widest array of cannabinoids across our product line, Forbidden Fruits are made with full spectrum distillate and contain 20mg CBD and 10mg THC D9. We amplify this combination with 3mg of CBG and 2mg CBN isolates for your ideal evening experience.

Enjoy 5 Southern Peach and 5 Blackberry Jam gummies in each pack.

Relax + Recover

Formulated with a 1:1 ratio of CBD to D8, our Relax + Recover gummies aid in recharging after a long day. The 20mg of CBD works to reduce post-exercise inflammation and the 20mg of THC D8 is just enough to relax.

Each pack has 5 Blueberry Pomegranate and 5 Raspberry Lemonade gummies – and they’re perfect for any newcomer to edible cannabis.

Vice + Virtue

Vice + Virtue are made with 10mg THC-D9 and 3mg THCV – a rare cannabinoid found in Southeast Asian and African sativa varieties. We rounded out the recipe with 10mg CBD and 3mg CBG for a perfectly balanced and uplifting experience.

Each pack of Vice + Virtue come with 5 mountain blueberry and 5 wild grape gummies.

Chill Pill Mints

Made with 9mg CBD and 3mg of THC-D9, each chill pill is microdosed with just enough active ingredients to make your worries melt away. They are an incredible option for people with low tolerances or those want to a high refresh throughout the day.

Each tin comes with 20 peppermint tablets that can be dissolved on your tongue (or chewed for a blast of minty freshness). Effects may take more than an hour to be fully realized.

Mellow Moon

Made with our non-psychoactive nighttime recipe: each gummy has 30MG CBD & 3MG of CBN which are derived from US grown hemp. From there, we add 3mg of Melatonin (which is the hormone your body releases in the evening to signal that it’s bedtime). While Mellow Moon are designed to be non-psychoactive, some consumers report very mild effects from the CBN.

You can enjoy these gummies about an hour before bedtime to ease into the night.

Mellow Mood

These are made with our non-psychoactive every day “feel good” recipe.

Each gummy has 30MG of CBD & 2MG of CBG which are derived from US grown hemp. From there, we add 50mg of 5-HTP which is the precursor to serotonin (one of your body’s mood regulating neurotransmitters). Mellow Mood are designed to be 100% non-psychoactive, and useful in recovery after a weekend of partying. 😉

Freedom Flyers

America prides itself on its freedoms. We believe that every citizen deserves the right to control their own state of mind. With 30mg of THC Delta-8, Freedom Flyers are the gummies you bring to get the party started.

Each pack has five Black Cherry and five Blue Raspberry gummies and are made solely from American hemp. Take only one gummy and prepare for take off!

Caliber

Caliber is the strongest type of hemp candy that we make, and we advise these only for seasoned cannabis connoisseurs. Each gummy packs a potent 50mg of organically derived Delta-8 and has plenty of firepower.

You’ll find five Blue Raspberry and five Summer Strawberry gummies in each 500mg pack. Most users should avoid these, or start with only a half of one.

Forbidden Fire

Forbidden Fire is a sister product to our extremely popular Forbidden Fruits recipe but with less evening effects. With this formula we dialed up the CBG from 3mg to 5mg and added a punch of spiciness. They also have 20mg CBD and 10mg of THC D9.

Each pack of Forbidden Fire features 5 Island Pineapple and 5 Mango Chili Lime gummies. Please note that our Island Pineapple flavor is made with Habanero pepper extract and is extremely spicy.

Toke Vapes

Each of our THCa vape devices are filled with one gram of premium cannabis oil, live rosin, and botanical terpenes for incredible flavor. They’re perfect for when you want a little buzz to take the edge off, but don’t have the time to commit to one of our edibles. 🤣

Just take one 3 second toke – and slide into relaxation.

Premium Cannabis Flower

Available at peak maturity, our THCa cannabis flower represents the state-of-the-art in genetics and cultivation.

It comes in two tiers: Harvest Select (which is generally more readily available and more affordable) and Farmer’s Cut (strains that take longer to produce and are more rare & expensive).

Our cannabis inventory changes daily as harvests come to fruition, so check back regularly or join our email list for updates.

Daily Dose Microelixir

Oil and water don’t mix… unless you’re a mad scientist.

We take our cannabis oils and sonically process them into tiny droplets that are less than 100 nanometers across. This creates a thermostable microemulsion that acts like a water soluble. The end product is like liquid relaxation that can be added to any drink or cocktail.
