      Yup. In Canada legal edibles are limited to 10mg / dose. AKA nothing to anyone who consumes cannabis daily.

          I wish. I’ve tried T-breaking into oils, candies, etc and every time I’m doubling the dose every 3 days until it just makes more sense to smoke.

          By that, do you mean that’s the minimum dose you need to feel anything? 10mg is practically a threshold dose.

          I’m a medical user, so for me, that minimum is ~350mg. Anything less is a waste of time. It sucks, which is why I prefer dabs instead.

        Uhhh what, 10mg is pretty decent and you could just take two doses? Some shit products advertise 500mg THC and barely do anything, others advertise 10mg and put you on the floor. I suspect the products claiming super high doses are either not decarbing or blatantly lying.

        Also obligatory THC isn’t everything, other cannabinoids are important

          This is missing from the discussion. High THC can go along with quality but does not have to. There is high THC crap that I find one dimensional. Isolated THC in a medicine turned out to be unpleasant for many people.

          In the plant It’s a bit like you can only stuff so much of a cannabinoid into the resin without decreasing something else.

          In NYC the weed industry is the wild west. It’s near impossible to find anything under 20mg/piece because there’s no regulations (the whole rollout of legal weed there is a clusterfuck). I have heard a LOT of stories from friends who knew nothing about doses and assumed that a 100mg pure THC nerds rope (or similar) would be fine. I once accidentally took 35mg thinking it was 5mg and had to Uber home sick. I’ve heard of kids getting into their parent’s stash too

          I now live in Canada where the image is from and I’m sooo grateful that it’s both cheap and regulated.

        Here in Colorado rec is limited to a similar limit but with my med card I can get packs that are 200 mg per gummy and come in packs of 4000 mg.

      I feel like edibles don’t do anything to me. But maybe I just need to make my own, cause whenever I buy gummies i keep eating them and I just get a very very mild buzz

          They could also be like me, some people lack the enzyme that breaks down THC when consumed. I’ve tried literally everything from making my own with a few oz’s, to tinctures, gummies, pills, any an all of it. Had friends who thought I was joking so they would happily hand me stuff to try and I would just gladly enjoy the taste :(…

          Neat party truck though to eat a dozen cookies while everyone else has 1 and are stuck on the couch while I look like the crazy weed addict completely unfazed.

            I had a friend like this but the cool trick went away when they started taking omega 3 supplements, hit them hard after

              Never heard this. Would be happy to try it, but I’ve definitely tried all the other things lol. Way it’s cooked, with a fatty food, even eating a bunch of lemons or getting citric acid. Nothing has allowed me to get s high from edibles :(

                I felt like this a few years ago and taking a T break then eating a gummy in the morning with nothing in my stomach proved the way for me.

                I usually don’t get high like when you smoke but it bridges a gap to when you can smoke. I also only take 20mg to get by and about 60 to watch a movie or something. Try empty stomach after small t break.

        I’v heard some people say the first couple times you eat them they don’t do anything, or if you have any kind of stomach disorders (like GERD) that this can reduce effectiveness

        all anecdotal though
