A Beginner's Guide to Cannabis Edibles

Thinking about trying edibles? Here's everything you need to know about THC edibles, dosing, and what to expect.

What Are Cannabis Edibles?

Cannabis edibles are food products infused with THC or CBD. They come in many forms including gummies, chocolates, beverages, and baked goods.

Why Choose Edibles?

  • Smoke-Free: No smoking or vaping required
  • Discreet: Look like regular food
  • Long-Lasting: Effects last longer than smoking
  • Precise Dosing: Know exactly how much you're consuming

Start Low, Go Slow

The golden rule of edibles: start with a low dose and wait.

  • Beginners: Start with 2.5-5mg THC
  • Wait Time: Effects can take 30 min to 2 hours
  • Duration: Effects can last 4-8 hours

What to Expect

  1. Onset: Takes longer than smoking (30-120 minutes)
  2. Intensity: Can feel stronger than smoking
  3. Duration: Effects last longer (4-8 hours)

Tips for First-Timers

  • Eat a meal before consuming edibles
  • Stay hydrated
  • Be in a comfortable environment
  • Have CBD on hand (can help reduce intensity)
  • Don't drive or operate machinery
