I would recommend a 10-20mg gummy for a first timer. Maybe even 5 if you’re nervous. Personally i enjoy the 50-100mg range with 100 sending me to the shadow realm.
Tbh the 5mg gummies I get in LA are much stronger than the 10mg I would buy in Arizona. I suspect the cannabis companies aren’t that accurate and the lab testing is rushed lol
I can’t smoke, but 30mg/day is a baseline for me. If I want to get blasted by a campfire in the woods I like 50-80mg. I remember when 5mg was noticeable but it isn’t anymore. Also I usually buy cheap Choice edibles. Can’t wait for our local legal market to get off the ground so I can shop for nicer treats without having to look for resources coming from outside the area (we’re legal now but no legal market yet).
Quick edit to say I also bought a 1000mg bag in Missouri that was 10 100mg edibles and I cut them up but that was fire. For a long time I couldn’t find anything over 10mg each.
I’m in a similar boat, my tolerance is high enough that a 5mg edible doesn’t do much. The legal market here sucks so I have been using mostly concentrate these days which I kind of hate.
Flower is like $50 for 3.5g here and I can get a stick of concentrate for $90 so that seemed easier.
I can’t even find black market down here (though I don’t really know how).
But back in Texas I could get an Oz for $220 and make all the edibles I could want
Thanks! I ate an edible once. I’m not sure how strong it was as it was home made by a friend of a friend.
I just laid in bed all day and watched anime. I don’t remember a single thing about the show and I couldn’t play Xbox. I was too disoriented the entire time.
Thats so real, its not for everyone but i live for that feeling. My favorite thing is to take an absurdly dosed edible and watch something incomprehensably absurd. Like velocipastor or technical jargon overload
Oh, um it was a while ago but I was basically half asleep because of it. I took it first thing in the morning, it expecting it to be so strong and it worse off maybe 10ish hours later? I went out that night:
Everyones different i guess, 15mg it fantastic for helping me fall asleep, wonderful, but i’m coming to realize i prefer a more intense experience. 5 is a good dose just to be safe though
I once had a 1000mg delta-8 gummy cause I thought it was gonna be weaker than the actual stuff. I was late to Thanksgiving because I literally could not leave my bed.
I often times imagine failing to imagine how high I am. Then I realize I don’t actually know anymore and just drink some water and pack another bowl.
It really used to be a problem. It still is one, but it also used to be one, perhaps moreso then and I’d like to think less-so now.
Some days I slip up and start comparing myself to others; what if I had my shit together like some of my better-off sober friends and colleagues? Yet again, what if I were to end up worse off like some friends who’ve made poorer choices? Then I realize it’s a matter of whether I can make decisions, so I hit the t-brake and go clean for however long I feel until I’m comfortable with saying “yeah nah shits about the same where’s my trusty ol water pipe”
Can someone give me some reference for that amount? What is a typical amount to take? How much would you recommend to a first timer?

600 is a lot, like a fuck ton
I usually just have 2.5mg…
Maybe i should take a t break…

I love how you are having a realization from another user basically say “holy shit man, how are you alive”
Yeah wtf 20mg. 5mg will take a non user to space

Making your own edibles is incredibly easy but the decarb step can really stink up a house/apartment/back alley dumpster.

Idk what part of the US you are in but my advice is always the same. Find good people and you’ll find weed somewhere.
Coworkers/neighbors/etc become friends and before you know it somebody is asking if the other smokes and you’ve got a hookup.

Could you make a guess about the dosage of the edible I had?
I had that experience as a casual smoker. But not an every day smoker. Like once or twice a week.
Hmmmm, id need more details tbh. How were you feeling physically? My instinct says 20-50mg
Oh, um it was a while ago but I was basically half asleep because of it. I took it first thing in the morning, it expecting it to be so strong and it worse off maybe 10ish hours later? I went out that night:
I’ll stick with my gut then but im not expert. Since you smoke semi regularly id go with that 10-15mg mark
Wow! That other guys stuff must have been so crazy strong.
I dunno 15mg puts me to sleep and I smoke weed all day every day. I’d definitely recommend only 5 for a first timer

I usually eat two of the 5mg gummies my local disp has and have a decent time on them. My tolerance is very low though.

😂 I couldn’t imagine a dosage that high.

Sounds like you’re pretty self aware about it all, which is a good thing imo.
Not that my opinion matters. Do what works for you homie.
