I fukking HATE edibles. What’s the point in having a delayed high that I can’t control.
Get them in doses that are manageable. For example, get some gummies that are 10mg each. If your tolerance is low, trust you will never have an unexpected bad time if you stick to 10-20 mg. You can also control the high by only taking 10 mg at a time and dose it just right. You can find your sweet spot this way. For me, 30-50 mg based on my tolerance is the sweet spot.

Now if you're talking about brownies or something you made at home and don't know the dosage or its not mixed well as far as dosing, then its a crap shoot.

Smoking doesn't do anything for me. Strictly an edible dude. Plus I hate smoke and I hate the smell.

OP if you try edibles do not make the mistake everyone makes their first time which is taking too many. For your first time, take no more than 10 or 20 mg. I would say 10 mg to be safe. THEN WAIT. Where people fukk up is that they wait 30 minutes or so and think "This isn't doing shyt" then they gobble down a whole bunch more and you cant walk that shyt back and you get a bad bad trip.

This happened to me my first time. I took like probably 70 mg my first time because I ate like 20 mg or so and didn't research about how long it takes to take effect. So I was like damn let me eat some more. BIG MISTAKE. About 20 minutes after I stuffed the extra 50 mg into my mouth, I was laying in bed and all of sudden shyt shifted. Had a laughing fit for about 5-10 minutes and then shyt went all the way left. Felt like warp speed from Star Trek as far as my perception and I felt like I was disassociating from reality. Best way to describe it was like I was in myself watching myself like a movie. Two days later, I still felt a bit high not to mention a massive headache. If everyone had a first experience like that, I wouldn't blame them if they never fukked with edibles again.

Yep, I hit personal records at the gym while high on sativas.

Also even if Indica didn't lock you to the couch I still think Sativa has a better high

Edibles... The high can last for hours no matter the grade I swear I'm not lying

My boy made some milk outta that shyt and when I tell you that's the closest sensation to a hard drug that I've felt I'm not kidding

With edibles you feel it from head to toe... I damn near cried cause I wanted the high to stop

Low doseage and small amounts is the way to go if your just starting out


Also, make sure you don’t have shyt to do for the rest of the day
This is why I usually do it in the evening and I usually plan it. Make sure I got a lot of munchies in the house (been trying to substitute with healthy snacks like carrots and celery) and I usually do it on Friday nights when I usually designate my eating out day for dinner.

Taking an edible before going out and grabbing a pizza and getting back home just right when it kicks in :wow::wow: Its always fun. Watching a movie, listening to music, and munching on some snacks:blessed: Then usually most edibles are indica so by the time you're ready to go to bed its easy to get to sleep and you sleep like a log :blessed:

Smoking gets you high faster and different strains have different effects obviously. Edibles take slower to work but the high last longer. The higher your tolerance, the more edibles you need to take. Also depends on how much mg of thc you take too.

If you're also looking for another alternative and it's available, try tinctures. Those will get you high for awhile and doesnt take long to kick in because its liquid. Each drop is a 1 milligram of thc so you can choose how high you wanna get if you can handle it.

I find edibles to be very inconsistent, which is why I don’t mess with them super often.

If you get them from a dispensary, they should be pretty standardized though. Even then, I would microdose until I get it right. Some dispensaries have stronger edibles than others.

As far as homemade edibles, I don’t trust them. My lady and I bought some from someone local we found on Instagram. The potency of the items were so inconsistent with each other, so there was no way to know how much to take. I would have half a cookie one day and barely get a buzz. Then I could have half of another cookie on another day, and be tripping balls. Too high a dose of THC makes me trip out, have major existential dread, and sometimes panic attacks.

Also, the fact that they take like 45 mins to an hour to kick in really requires patience. I usually try to occupy my mind with TV or Internet so I don’t think about it too much. If 2 hours have passed and I don’t feel anything, then I’ll take a little bit more.

Yeah, it's some liquid that you put in a dropper that you drop the drips under your tongue. When I had it at the top of the year, I took like on average 20 to 30 drops. It was a cross between a head and body high. Actually ended up real dizzy where I had a hard time trying to keep balance. Hated the way it would make my stomach feel too. It last for a long time too. It's a weird feeling. You should try it.

Smoking on the other hand actually relaxes me nowadays but it doesnt last long. I actually prefer smoking vs the tincture. The tincture is much stronger and last longer. Dont think a tincture is ideal if you plan on having a busy day or need to be focused. It's for relaxing and basically a time like this.
