    There’s a place in Canada that makes a 1200mg and 2400mg gummy. It’s a large puck and you cut it up into more manageable portions. Took 300mg slice as my largest piece. Was a pretty good time.

        I took 300mg thc accidentally as my first ever experience with any cannabis product. I saw this, then this while thinking every possible thought at once and the opposite of all of them all at the same time and particularly that this must be what having a seizure feels like (its not, or at least I wouldn’t have been able to remember it) and then I woke up in the ER propped up over a bucket of puke.

          The first time I made edibles I used already vaped bud and thought it would be much weaker than using regular weed. Except that AVB is decarbed and its actually stronger. I put about 4 oz worth into a single batch coconut oil then made cookies and ate two. I lost my fucking MIND. I deleted my entire internet presence lol.

            I had a super similar avb edible experience except instead of oil I water cured the avb and put it into cookie mix. I use about a Mason jars worth. The cookie was very herbal tasting and the chain of events went intense come up -> anxiety -> 5/6 hour black out -> anxiety -> stoned for 12 hrs. 6/10 would only recommend if schedule properly cleared.

        Even if you manage to fall asleep, you’re still high for another 5 hours after you wake up

        I have a pretty high tolerance at this point. Didn’t fall asleep but was super mellow all day.

    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?

      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.

      600 is a lot, like a fuck ton

            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.

            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.

                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 dunno 15mg puts me to sleep and I smoke weed all day every day. I’d definitely recommend only 5 for a first timer

          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 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”

            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.
