That's why I just don't mess around with edibles anymore.

yep last one I got was a brownie that was dry & crumbly and I suspect not very well mixed, each piece was a roll of the dice ranging from "bit of a dud" to "long psychedelic experience that will make you understand the very nature of consciousness"

Uh, you do know that freezing edibles is an ordinary thing and doesn't diminish the potency at all, right? Never do incredibly gross things like eating coconut oil just because you don't have friends over on a given week. Freezers exist.

if you've ever eaten a weed cookie thats been in the freezer for 2 months you know this is a bad take. shame

I mean you're not eating them for the taste are you? They're still gonna be just as potent

btw does anyone else ever get a next-day residual effect from edibles? sometimes I'll take one around 7 PM and the next morning, by 9 or so after I'm drinking my coffee I'll feel something kick in and I'll be mellow for a couple hours...not really "high" but definitely feeling something

if we're not caring about the taste just eat the oil? infused coconut oil doesn't even taste that bad if you make it right. personally i am moving towards green dragon based recipes instead of oil based recipes for edibles.

I made a bunch of oil a while back and ended up buying an ice tray that makes these really tiny half orbs that were small enough to swallow like a slightly-too-large pill


What if you decarb a whole nug (sans stem), then dip it in chocolate and let it harden? Would that be good? I've eaten fan leaves, but not the flower, so I don't know how this would play out.

yeah you absolutely want to be careful before you figure out exactly what your tolerance is

one big difference between edibles and smoking or drinking is that your body has no way of telling you that you did way too much until it's way too late. also the stuff they sell today is stupidly potent, imagine a bottle of liquor that tasted like Sprite but was actually 600 proof

I ate an entire pack of gummies, 100mg total (10 count of 10mg gummies) and barely felt anything.

Do edibles just vary widely in potency or is my tolerance just through the roof?

Several theories:

1. Tolerance is through the roof.
2. You could be one of those unlucky people that have the genes that don't metabolize THC in the stomach
3. They were regular gummies.

if you truly felt nothing after eating 100mg of THC then you are The One True Weedlord, more likely what you bought is a dud (or is perhaps CBD only)

The THC content of edibles and even flower is also essentially unrelated to whatever the packaging says

I think they vary in potency- even in the legal states where they supposedly go through regular potency testing. I've had a 10mg gummy do nothing for me but a few days later a different gummy from the same box absolutely destroyed me.

Also pro-tip if you think it's not working just slam a few shots of tequila in rapid succession. The THC and alcohol tend to magnify the effects of each other and if they don't launch you into another dimension you'll get drunk.

Laserface posted:

If your material is in iso because it was previously air path residue then no, it was already hot enough to vaporize once, decarb happens quite a bit lower than that.

EDIT Maybe I don't understand but unless you're eating it straight why do you care about when the decarb is happening? If you dab, smoke, vape, or cook it with something it's gonna decarb as a matter of course. Are you asking if you can eat it?

No I made iso hash with fresh bud and I'm curious if I should bake it first to decarb it.

A lot of commercial edibles' dosages are wildly speculative/optimistic since it's impossible for the customer to verify so it might have just been that they were bunk

I think you are right that they very, but that can also be due to changes in your own diet, exercise, etc.

For what it's worth when I first tried weed I tried edibles multiple times with no noticeable result. When I finally gave in an vaped the first time it very much worked and always has.

I've heard this anecdote enough times that I believe there's something to it but I've never seen anything like a biological basis for this. What is happening to the THC? If you eat a brownie made with weed butter, your body starts scooping up that fat right away and it has THC in it. Something has to happen to it fast for it not to end up in your blood, pumping around and binding with cannabinoid receptors. If you had some kind of weird enzymatic thing it would have other effects and be known to affect other drugs (like how CYP2D6/grapefruit juice affect tons of meds across the board). If you had some kind of issue preventing you from absorbing the fat it seems like that would come up as a nutritional fact in your life before you ate your first edibles. It makes no sense to me, but this anecdote gets posted often enough that it's now internet stoner folklore that some people are genetically immune to edibles. So how does it work??

It's one of the great mysteries of our time.

some people also dont get high their first couple times smoking weed. granted in some cases its because people arent inhaling properly or enough, but i think also for some weird reason it takes some people a few times for weed to have an effect on them

technically doesn't the fat not have thc in it, but attached to it (or attached to the fat molecules)?

so it's not that it doesn't absorb the fat, it's that it knocks the thc attached to the fat off?

I'm an english major aka retarded so the above is very likely gibberish

I have never ever ever seen a newbie take a proper coughing hit and not get wrecked. I'm convinced it's because they're not inhaling. Basically unless they're a pack a day smoker they should be absolutely hacking their lungs out first time weed smoke hits their tender alveoli

The first time I did anything weed related is when my buddy gave me an edible or two before a show. After an hour I was complaining how I didn't feel poo poo, to which he responded by having me take a couple of tokes off his INFUSED pre roll and boom, everything hit at once. That was the best show I've ever been to and everything looked weird as hell. The car ride back was especially scary in that state of mind since his shifty friend kept a pistol wedged in the front seat. That, and it felt like we were teleporting around town.


How do I get that feeling back?

you don't have to chase that feeling as with all drugs it will be less of a big thing each time but weed still has an effect just don't go looking for those early weed highs.
