The 7 Most Common Types of Cannabis Users

Cannabis users come in all colors, flavors, and sizes. People often think of the stereotypical lazy stoner who loves baggy outfits, rasta music, and lacks motivation or passion. Fortunately, we have long known that there is little truth to this. In this blog, we discuss 7 different types of common cannabis enthusiasts. Who knows, you might recognize yourself in one of the seven, or you might think we missed an important one. 

The Beginner

This is the phase that almost everyone goes through at the beginning of their cannabis journey. You know little about weed or hash, and it all still feels a bit exciting. You probably can't roll joints yet and still struggle with following all the cannabis jargon like terpenes, dabs or edibles. You don't need much weed to get totally stoned and you often get the giggles.

The Philosopher

This deep thinker is a real talker. After a few good puffs or a strong bong hit, the philosopher starts asking all sorts of complicated questions. So don't be surprised if he or she suddenly asks you ''Can aliens get high?'', ''How many people are stoned right now?'' or ''What color is a mirror?''. Although all these questions can sometimes be a bit much, you will certainly have your best conversations with these stoners.

The Technologist

This is the Inspector Gadget of the cannabis world; these experts are well-versed in all the accessories you can use to consume cannabis. They have the latest vaporizers and dab rigs. These are the types who are always up to date with the latest developments on the technological side of the cannabis world. Very handy friends to have if you're curious about these gadgets.

The Naturalist

This group could be called the hippies among cannabis users. They smoke exclusively with unbleached, sustainable rolling papers and filters. No flavored papers and absolutely no tobacco for these down-to-earth types. Greengo is the preferred brand and they prefer to smoke their own supply of organically grown weed.

The Connoisseur

This is a true cannabis connoisseur. These experts claim they can instantly taste that they are dealing with a Sweet Cheese F1 Fast Version from Sweet Seeds harvested in the 2nd week of September under a full moon. Just kidding! The connoisseurs are often on the hunt for weed with the best flavor, they pay attention to terpene profiles and store their supply in airtight jars. This cannabis enthusiast prefers to use a vaporizer or bong to fully enjoy the flavor.

The OG

The old-timers or "original gangsters" have been around for a while. They have years of experience with cannabis and extensive knowledge of its history. This experienced group often chooses classic strains like Purple Haze or doesn't smoke at all anymore and has switched to edibles or cannabis oil.

The Moocher

Probably the least popular among the types of cannabis users. These aren't really true stoners, but more occasional users. If a joint happens to be lit at a party, they are happy to join in. They won't have rolling papers, filters, or a bag of weed with them, but they love to smoke along. A golden tip for all the moochers! If you don't contribute to the cannabis but still enjoy partaking, bring snacks and drinks for the rest.
