If you're the cold turkey type set a date and stick to it. If you like to wean off and cut back slowly to kill the addiction that way, do it like that. But definitely do it... more power to you bud!!

And the occasional joint of organic weed is okay too, just as long as you're not bogging down your lungs with constant smoke and ash on a regular basis. You got this.
