Celebrate 4/20 With These Awesome Ideas

4/20 is just around the corner, so it’s time to start thinking of ways to celebrate. Whether you’re looking to spend the entire day in a haze or simply give a respectful nod to tradition, we’ve got what you need when it comes to ideas.

Stock Up Your Stash

Before the big day rolls around, we recommend stopping by Doja to grab what you need. The last thing you want is to find yourself empty-handed the morning of – and, you’re likely to find a whole bunch of great sales the week leading up to the holiday. Of course, there will be special deals specifically on 4/20 too, so if you don’t stock up ahead of time, we’ll have plenty for you day-of too.

Try Something New

Is there a day better than 4/20 to try stepping outside your comfort zone? We don’t think so. Take advantage of the sales to purchase something you’ve never considered, and you just might surprise yourself and find a new product or strain that you love.

Head Outside

The great outdoors is all the more magical when you’re high, and April is when the earth starts to come back to life after a long winter. Make the most of the day and take a hike while high – just make sure not to stray too far and bring plenty of water with you.

Pop In A Movie

We’re not sure if there’s any tradition stronger than getting high, grabbing your favorite munchies, and finding a movie to stream. Whether you’re looking for a goofy comedy or a mind-bending thriller, films just have a little something extra when you’re in the clouds.

A few of our favorite stoner movies (that you won’t find on most other lists) include M3GAN, The Master of Disguise, and Premonition.

Make Some Edibles

There is no better pairing than marijuana and food, and 4/20 is the perfect time to try your hand at making edibles. You can go the tried-and-true route and bake a batch of brownies with cannabutter, or switch things up by infusing coconut oil with cannabis (this oil works well since coconut oil is fatty and can become pretty dang potent).

Or, take a peek around the internet to find a recipe that sounds good. The options really are endless.

Not to bring down the mood, but we have to remind you: don’t smoke and take edibles simultaneously unless you know what you’re doing. Edibles can take a while to kick in, so be patient while waiting for their effects instead of toking up right after. If you choose to partake in both, prepare for the world to be hazy for quite a while.

Hotbox The House

Okay, it might not be possible to hotbox your entire house, but what better day to try than 4/20? If you can’t do the whole house, you can at least try to make it happen in your most-used rooms, like the living room, bathroom, and bedroom. And if that’s still too much, try building a blanket fort and smoking yourself out in there. It’s an awesome experience.

Pamper Yourself

Self care is all the rage, and you can make it even better by using cannabis. To have the most relaxing 4/20 ever, put on your favorite music, kick back, and use those topicals you’ve been saving for a rainy day. Or, if you don’t have any topicals handy, just make an avocado/cannabis face mask. Here’s what you’ll need:

1 ripe avocado
¼ cup cannabis oil
2 teaspoons spirulina powder
A few drops of your favorite essential oil (lavender, tea tree, and chamomile are great for the face)
A makeup brush that you don’t mind using for the mixture
A blender

After that, simply combine the avocado, cannabis oil, spirulina powder, and essential oil in the blender – once the mixture looks like green frosting, you’re all done.

Steam your face for a few minutes to open up your pores, then use the makeup brush to apply the face mask. Leave it on for 20 minutes (and use that time to smoke a joint!).

Put Some Music On

There’s a reason you tend to smell weed while at a concert. Marijuana makes music sound so much better. If you thought you loved your favorite song sober, just wait until you hear it performed live while high. Pick out your consumption method, turn out the lights, and let your favorite album play through. It’ll be amazing.

Or, if you’re feeling up to it, head out to a concert on 4/20 – especially if the venue is outdoors. There’s something euphoric about listening to music while surrounded by like-minded people, the sun on your back and not a care in the world.

Try Your Hand At Painting

It’s super common for people to feel creative when they’re smoking weed so, even if you’ve never tried painting before, 4/20 is the perfect day to start. Get a few of your stoner friends together and have a painting party while passing around a blunt, and you just might create a masterpiece. And, even if you don’t, it’ll still be a fun time.

Listen To A Weed Podcast

4/20 falls on a Saturday this year, but many of us might still have to work. To make the time pass more quickly, try listening to a podcast about weed (or, as they’re fondly called, “potcasts). It’ll put you in the right mood and you just might learn something new. Here are a few of our favorites:

Host A Fancy Dinner

Who says we can’t be classy on 4/20? This holiday is the perfect excuse to invite some friends and family over (ones that partake, of course) and cook a nice dinner for them. After the food is gone, debut some ‘special’ desserts. You can dress down or make it an all-out event that calls for some high-class attire, just as long as the vibes are there!

Prepare For 4/20 With Doja

A stoner’s worst nightmare is being caught without a stash on the best day of the year. Make sure you’ve got what you need for this year’s 4/20 by stopping into Doja for flower, edibles, carts or other cannabis goodies!
