Collection: Edibles
Here are some tips on how to consume cannabis edibles:
1. Start with a low dose: Edibles take longer to kick in than smoked or vaped cannabis, so it's important to start with a low dose and wait at least an hour before consuming more. A good starting point is 2 mg of THC or less.
2. Be patient: It can take well over an hour before the effects of edibles are noticeable, depending on your metabolism, body weight, and other factors.
3. Drink water: Drinking water, preferably cold, can help combat dry mouth, which is an occasional side effect of consuming edibles.
4. Eat before consuming: Eating before consuming edibles can keep the effects more gradual and consistent.
5. Keep out of reach of children and pets: Always keep any cannabis-containing foods out of reach of children, pets, and unknowing snackers.
6. Not to be consumed if you are pregnant or driving.
Edibles come in many different types, from gummies to brownies, and are popular for weed newbies and experienced users alike.
They are consumed orally and processed in the stomach and liver, whereas smoked or vaped cannabis enters the lungs to be absorbed directly into the bloodstream.
Because of this, edibles are usually more potent and last longer than smoked or vaped weed.
