Responsible use isn't just a slogan at cannabis social clubs in Puigcerdà — it's how these clubs survive and thrive.

The "start low, go slow" approach applies here: begin with a low-THC option, wait to assess the effects before taking more, and listen to what the staff recommend. Don't drive.

Many experienced members choose one or the other, never both. Responsible use is embedded in club culture: staff offer guidance, experienced members mentor newcomers, and the general atmosphere is one of informed, considered consumption.
