Whatever weed you'll get, I'd definitely first try that strain / dose whilst home, so you know exactly what effects you get once you wanna ride high

It's worth noting that horse riding is more dangerous than motocross. I don't want to harsh your buzz if you're an excellent rider, but if somebody told me they were going to smoke a joint and then go motocrossing I'd be a bit worried about them.

The onset is pretty fast because it's going straight into your lungs and bloodstream. Within a minute of inhaling you'll notice the feeling.

I would recommend talking to a dispensary about what you're looking for. If that's not available, try talking to your dealer or someone who knows more about smoking in your local area so you can get some reputable information.

Generally speaking, it sounds like a mid strain is what you're looking for. Roll some .5g joints so you can smoke them in littler portions.

Back when I didn't really smoke, (but would with friends who did) I would take one big hit off of whatever they were smoking, and be good for an hour or two. When I felt it wearing off, I'd hop back in the circle grab another puff.

Smoking is fast. You'll feel it quickly, but it will build up. Take a hit. Put it away for 5 minutes. If you think you need another one, go for it and wait another 5 minutes.

You should be good as long as you don't rush it.

Have fun and good luck!

When smoking, I find 1-2 minutes to start feeling it, 5-15 minutes for peak effects.

Absolutely try it at home first. Don't go out on a horse for your first time.

As always, start low and increase after you've waited long enough to peak out.

Talk to your budtender, but also be prepared to experiment, because everything hits people differently. Strains will give you an idea what the effect may be, but it won't be a certainty. Indica vs Sativa will probably be bullshit, terpenes and thc to cbd will probably have more of an effect. All of which can vary from producer to producer, and batch to batch.

I'd definitely stick with smoking over edibles as edibles are known to hit harder for longer. Some people seem to have very high tolerance with edibles, but they absolutely wreck me.

If you're hesitant to smoke you can use .510 vape carts or a dry flower vaporizer, but go slow with the carts as they're pretty potent.

I used to be THC gang, but I'm finding balanced 1:1 CBD to THC to be just as enjoyable with less mind fog, and likely less chance to get way to high and panic (higher CBD than THC is also good, just might need to smoke more to hit your personal sweet spot).

As others have said, start low and go slow. Smoking hits you pretty quick so it's easier to dial your dose in and stop if it's getting on top of you. If you're worried about constantly putting out your joint, you can always use a pipe and really control your dose - but I personally don't like pipes.

Usually smoking has rapid onset and the affects/intensity wear off much faster than edibles. For me it's about 2 hours - but if you're new to smoking cannabis it can last several hours, so definitely get familiar with it in a safe place before getting high af in potentially stressful/dangerous situations

Happy trails!

You definitely should do quite a few smoke sessions at ho.e first and experiment yourself, everyone's body is different. Generally I find indica strains to be a relaxing feel good type deal. Sativa is more for raising your energy and alertness which can cause anxiousness if you smoke too much but that's honestly a general symptom of being too high anyways. I would recommend If you do want to smoke horseback to smoke dope with very low THC content around 5-10% so it becomes more difficult to become 'encumbered' but you still feel the high a bit.

Definitely ask the bud tender at your dispensary, and smoke small amounts at a time after trying the strain you get. Keep in mind that it can exacerbate things like paranoia and anxiety, so definitely try it at home before venturing out while under the influence.

Two things that will help bring you down are sweets and caffeine, so it's a good idea to bring some chocolate/candy and coffee with you in case you get overwhelmed.

OP reporting back:

Got a 1g joint and went out this morning. It took 30ish minutes to feel anything and was high for about 3.5 hours. Definitely got way more lethargic than the first time and would’ve preferred to have more an upper. Next time I’m trying Indica and hybrid after that. Looking for that upper and creativity spike 😛
