Alright, so edible question. My doc recommended trying gummies which arrived today. They are 10mg thc/10mg CBD. I'm not really across what this equates to in terms of strength... Obviously edibles are slow onset, but how strong is this going to end up being in comparison to other methods of consuming (smoking, vaping etc).... I've had edibles exactly once 25 years ago, and they tasted so nice that I did the have way too much thing. Not wanting that to happen with these....
Try one out on the weekend at home then you'll get an idea of strength and how long it last etc.
Yeah, that was the plan. Just looking for a bit of a heads up I guess.
I think it's compulsory to listen to Bob Marley while recording your findings.
I'm a very regular edible consumer. For me, it's 45 minutes after dosing to start feeling the effects, 90 minutes to actually feel stoned, and a few hours before it starts wearing off. Quite a different experience to inhaled THC. My regular dose is between 5mg to 10mg, definitely feel toasted but it's comfortable and pleasant.
If I got your script I would start at a third of a gummy and see how I felt, before increasing if needed over different sessions on following days.
This is really helpful, thanks
