Different Cannabis Types in NY

Trying cannabis for the first time or looking to explore new options? With so many formats available, understanding your choices can make a huge difference. At Green Leaf NY, we help shoppers navigate cannabis product types in NY by matching their goals, preferences, and comfort levels.

From fast-acting inhalables to long-lasting edibles, there’s something for everyone — it’s just about knowing where to start.

Inhalable Formats (Fast-Acting, Short Duration)

These include pre-rolls, flower, and vape cartridges. They take effect quickly (usually within minutes) and are ideal for those looking for immediate results or a more controlled experience.

  • Pre-rolls: Ready to light and enjoy — simple and shareable.
  • Vape cartridges: Discreet, portable, and less aromatic than smoking.
  • Flower: Classic and versatile for personal use or group settings.

Edibles & Gummies (Longer-Lasting, Slower Onset)

Edibles typically take 30–90 minutes to kick in but can last for several hours. They’re great for people who want longer, more body-focused effects without inhaling anything.

  • Ideal for evening routines, travel, or discreet use
  • Available in low-dose and balanced THC:CBD formats
  • Pro tip: Start low (2.5mg–5mg) and wait before re-dosing

You can read a helpful dosing guide from Healthline if you’re new to edibles.

Tinctures, Capsules, and Sublinguals

These offer precise dosing and are great for people who want more control over their experience. Many are formulated with specific cannabinoid ratios to support balance, focus, or calm.

  • Tinctures are placed under the tongue for quicker absorption
  • Capsules offer familiar, no-fuss formats
  • Ideal for wellness-minded shoppers and consistent routines

Ask our budtenders which format might be best for your goals.

Choosing Based on Your Lifestyle

When thinking about cannabis product types in NY, don’t just consider the effect — think about your lifestyle:

  • Need something discreet? Try vapes or capsules.
  • Want to unwind after work? Edibles or pre-rolls may work.
  • Prefer consistent routines? Tinctures and low-dose formats are great.
