A great many dads have been smoking cannabis since before you were alive. Encountering families with two or three generations of cannabis experience isn’t uncommon on the West Coast, and integrating the now-legal plant into traditional celebrations opens up new opportunities to connect.

For fathers who love gadgets, there’s stylish vaporizers for discreet use on the golf course.

Maybe your dad used to smoke, but quit for a long time, or maybe he’s recently gotten curious about the health benefits as age-related issues have manifested. As an adult hoping to bond with your dad over a shared joint, it can still feel awkward to bring up cannabis consumption, but reintroducing your pop to new products and delivery methods will help him stay with the times and learn something new.

For fathers who love gadgets, there’s stylish vaporizers for discreet use on the golf course. If dad likes to putter around in the yard, maybe he’d be interested in adding a few cannabis plants to the tomato patch. Introduce soothing topicals and non-intoxicating CBD products to dads who don’t want to get high.

Most importantly, seek out a quiet moment to share your appreciation for your dad’s love and support, and let him know that you care about his health. Cannabis may help prevent Alzheimer’s disease as well as protect the liver from damage caused by alcohol, and using the plant fights inflammation while supplementing the endocannabinoid system. It’s an important tool for helping people get the most out of life as they age.

There’s a whole new world of cannabis to explore together, so get your dad into a dispensary to experience legal weed, or delight him with a gift that shows him a different side of the plant altogether.

Hanu Stone Vape Pod System

The hottest new innovation from the team at Vapexhale, the sleek Hanu Stone is simple to use and perfect for new users of cannabis concentrates. Its distinctive design makes the Stone into a conversation piece, with pre-filled pods of premium cannabis concentrate delivering a soothing high.

With its long battery life, this vaporizer is highly portable. The ceramic atomizer is designed to triple the amount of available surface area compared to a standard vape pen atomizer, enabling the user to conjure up large clouds of vapor that more closely imitate the act of smoking. Currently, a few California partners have signed up to make pods for this inventive vaporizer, including Beezle, ButterBrand, Eel River Organics, Eve Farms, and Rosette Wellness, with more deals in the works to add additional providers.

Price: $70

Otto Joint Roller

If your dad likes joints but hates rolling, the Otto is a godsend. Packs of prerolls are more expensive than the equivalent amount of cannabis in flower form, so the Otto pays for itself over time. This ingenious device automatically grinds and fills a cone in 20 seconds, in essence rolling a joint for you!

For people with arthritis, rolling can be difficult, and for those who have never mastered the art of crafting a perfect cone, the Otto removes any anxiety about sharing a crooked joint. Otto’s automatic milling technology senses when the herb is dry or more sticky, adjusting accordingly for evenly ground cannabis every time. Eliminate annoying canoeing caused by uneven rolling and air pockets, and impress friends with professional-quality prerolls made from your favorite cannabis varieties.

Popular for its long battery life and robust vapor, the Pax Era has become the leading platform for disposable vaporizer pods, with over 500 different pods and 50+ extract partners across 13 states. In California, look for pods from Island Cannabis Co., filled with completely solvent-free cannabis distillate from specific strains. Choose from a range of different flavors including Blackberry OG, Tangie Sap, Lemon Wreck, Hashberry, or Mango Haze.

Easy to use, the Pax Era is a slim vape that improves upon many standard vape pens with a solid, leak-free cartridge design. You can even have the Pax Era engraved with a heartwarming message or simply add your dad’s name in case it gets lost. For tech-loving dads, the accompanying Pax app allows them to precisely control the dose and temperature setting on the device, letting dad dial in an amount of vapor that’s “micro, small, medium, or large” depending on his tolerance.

Price: $30 for the vaporizer, $50 to $60 for pods
