That's not really true for long time users. I've encountered people who need 600mg to get a light buzz.

I smoke / take edibles probably 3 - 4x a week. 600mg in one dose for me is probably asking for a psychotic break.

It has happened: look up Owen Benjamin.

Tolerance varies insanely for edibles. Some people dont process them like others. Ive heard about people just not getting high from edibles at all, even high doses like you described. It‘d be curious if this phenomenon is backed by science or not.

I'm one of those people for whom edibles don't really seem to work. Knowing this, last time I gave it a go I took 90mg followed by another 90mg an hour later. Didn't feel a thing. Don't think I'll buy any again.

I had that problem too. I can usually eat like 40-60mg without anything... And yet one night I took a 10mg all by itself and had an amazing time! It makes no sense to me.

Make, don't buy.

It's so easy/cheap to use low-spectrum cannabis oil in edibles, and most uneducated/recreational users can't/won't feel the difference between how THC feels, compared with all of the compounds you're supposed to have together when using cannabis.

One thing I've noticed is that a lot of edibles these days, especially stuff like the candies, don't have the same 'profile' as old school brownies and whatnot. The requirement for precise dosing means many edibles are made using some sort of extract that's been refined to a specific potency, but that can end up losing some of the other psychoactive compounds. But people are sensitive to different cannabinoids differently, which has led to a bigger variance in tolerance I think.

It's because they're all made with THC distillate!

No different than early vape pens.

No terpenes? No CBD? You're just gonna be high.

Edibles don't work for me, I'm so sick of hearing about edibles as the "fix all" to health issues. I vape loose leaf cannabis, I'm also sick of people assuming everyone who "vapes" uses cartridges.

Grow the plant, cut and dry the plant, heat the plant & breathe it in. It's pretty simple.

"Vaporization" > vaping!

Edibles can definitely do the same, but not distillate made stuff from the store.

Even trying a firecracker (herb cooked in peanut butter on a tortilla chip) at home with your existing purchase of plant matter can show you the difference.

Right I meant 60mg for this guys wife who is looking for a 5mg dose.

Jesus, I do not envy them.

For real? 60 is barely “I feel stoned for me”, and I’m not a a super-heavy user. I’ve had doses… considerably higher than that.

10mg I’m not sure I could reliably ABX with a placebo.

I can confirm I wouldn't even feel 10 mg.

I've felt a suggested dose of bennadryl hit harder than 10mg

That's a really underestimated class of drug, to be fair.

I've been using recreationally for 20 years and a 10mg edible still hits me plenty hard. 20 would hit me like a donkey kick, 60 would make me extremely uncomfortable to say the least.

Same here (though I’m closer to 30 yrs). A 10mg gummy on an EMPTY stomach hits hard. Stomach needs to be empty when you take it.

Lucky. You can add a 0 on the end of those for me, more than that at the high end. I've done 1000mg over the course of ~12 hours before.

I have to cut the 10mg gummies. 1.25mg is my happy place, and if I take more than 2.5mg the room will be rolling and I'll feel totally sick to my stomach for hours.

If comfy, I'd love to know what brand or store disappointed you.

Regular smoker here. Probably addicted. 60mg won't really do anything for me except make me feel sluggish as fuck the next day.

If you have a tolerance 50mg is nothing. That doesn't even get me high now, forget about when I took edibles every day (minimum 300mg). I'm not a genetic freak or anything either, my wife developed tolerance at the same pace as me.

There is a hemp derived mixture called "purple berry" that is so e proprietary blend of a bunch of cannabinoids. I took a whole one, once, and it was a massive trip, so crazy I don't want to do it again. A quarter of one means I'm doing a movie (or nothing) for the night.

For me, 5-10mg of delta 8 is a good relaxing evening. On the low end, it's an anxiety reducer, on the high end of that, a bit of a giggle and indacouch feeling. 25 mg (one gummy) is a zonk the brain kind of night.

Honestly, for knowing I drink too much alcohol, d8 can be a great substitute on the way to quasi sobriety.

Grey market isolated canabanoids are not at all the same. I would use caution with all of them, and particularly their sources, processing, and purity.

Anecdotal, but at sufficiently high doses, I've noticed that you can make contact with extracorporeal entities. I perceive them as distorted cartoon characters. I have taken other psychedelics like LSD-25, but only edibles at very high doses give me this effect.

I don't get ego death with an insane amount of weed, but the other day I was certain I could see through my eyelids, so YMMV.

Don't do drugs, kids.
