We don't have a mature culture around cannabis usage. Alcohol has this benefit, and we have some social norms on how to enjoy it. A big one is the "don't drink before 5" adage. Norms like this for weed will develop in time, I'm sure.

Yeah, wake and bake is a bad cultural norm for weed. Then again, smoking at 4:20 would mirror the "no day drinking" norm.

I'm seeing the opposite quite often where I live, people who are quite a bit into weed usually end up needing to bake in order to sleep more comfortably.

Maybe they are having problems sleeping to begin with.

We live in different bubbles. I certainly live in a social circle that has a mature view on cannabis. Perhaps it's Amsterdam.

I smoke about 6 to 12 times per year, mostly THC/CBD (Dutch weed), sometimes CBD only (specifically, weed from Switzerland).

Dutch weed: 3 to 5 puffs and I'm fine. Smoking half a joint or more is definitely overdosing it, feeling cold and uncontrollable tremors can occur.

Swiss weed: I smoke half a joint.
