Quick-Start Guide: How to Use Tincture
1. SHAKE
The carrier oil and hemp extract(s) may slightly separate between uses. Simply shake to restore the suspension.
2. MEASURE
Pull tincture into the included dropper’s indicator line for a 1/4 ml serving.
3. DEPOSIT
Keeping the dropper clean, place tincture under tongue.
4. RELAX
Allow to sit under tongue to absorb for 30-60 seconds.
How Much Tincture Should I Take?
The standard serving size of all Bloom Farms tinctures is 1/4 mL.
Generally speaking, it is common for users to begin with 1 serving and increase the number of servings consumed at a time until a desired effect is achieved. Some people will find benefit with just our single serving size, but it is also common for users to consume in increments of 5 mg, 10 mg, 20 mg or 50 mg at a time.
Best results are achieved by starting with the smallest serving size and increasing the number of servings over time until the desired effect is attained.
Determining the “ideal” number of servings for an individual depends on several factors, including body chemistry, weight, health, prescription medications, sensitivity to the active ingredients (and any other ingredients) and desired effect.
We cannot provide individualized usage guidelines.
How Quickly Does Tincture Work?
The onset of effect after sublingual absorption is 15-45 minutes and can last 2-4 hours. This means that it might take 15-45 minutes before noticing any effect. Some users may experience a faster onset of effect, while others might experience a delayed effect.
Depending on the desired effect or intent of use, the effects of the cannabinoid(s) may take up to several weeks to appreciate—even with daily use.
We always recommend starting with the smallest amount and giving your body time to appreciate the effects before assessing whether you should adjust your amount. Our free Cannabinoid Usage Tracker was designed to make this as easy as possible.
What if I Take More Tincture?
What if you want to take more than one serving? If you have determined that your ideal amount is more than one serving, you can take servings throughout the day or all at once. (Some people prefer to take tincture before bed.) Whatever the case, for maximum bioavailability, place only one 1/4 mL serving of Bloom Farms tincture under the tongue at a time and allow it to fully absorb before taking more.
