Edible forms of cannabis, such as gummies, brownies, and drinks, offer discreet and long-lasting effects that can be safe and enjoyable if consumed responsibly. However, edibles can be unpredictable if not consumed properly, so it’s essential to understand the experience you want to have.

Knowing the dose of the product and the dosage that works best for you can help you avoid unpleasant effects. It’s crucial to start with a small dose of edibles and gradually increase until you find your ideal dose, as the strength of an edible depends on various factors such as the type of edible, dosage, tolerance, body weight, and metabolism.

Typically, edibles come with dosage labels when bought from licensed dispensaries. However, the dosage of homemade edibles can be difficult to determine. Therefore, it’s vital to understand the factors that influence how edibles can affect you.

To find your ideal edible dose, it’s important to consider your individual body chemistry, tolerance, body weight, and the experience you’re looking for. A microdose of 1-2.5 mg THC is suitable for first-time consumers or regular consumers looking to microdose, offering mild relief of symptoms like pain, stress, and anxiety, while 3-5 mg THC edibles offer stronger relief of pain and anxiety symptoms, and may impair coordination and alter perception.

Moderate doses of 10-15 mg THC offer effective relief for pain, nausea, and anxiety symptoms, but impaired coordination and altered perception can occur. On the other hand, a high dose of 20-30 mg THC can provide very strong euphoria, but it’s very likely to impair coordination and alter perception.

Experienced, high-tolerance THC consumers and patients living with cancer or inflammatory disorders can consume extremely high doses of 100-500 mg THC edibles, resulting in intensely impaired coordination and perception, and likelihood of unpleasant side effects including nausea, anxiety, and increased heart rate.

In conclusion, finding the right dose of edibles depends on individual factors, and consuming edibles responsibly can result in safe and enjoyable experiences.
