Yeah, coach, is it possible you have an unusually high tolerance for edibles? 10mg per item seems reasonable. I mean, you could always eat two cookies if you want more.

I think there is a lot of variance in how people react to edibles. I've given up on edibles a while ago, I have to eat so much it isn't affordable. A 10mg just means I wake up the next day a little buzzed, but I 'd catch a nice buzz if I smoked the equivalent.

I agree. I find them too inconsistent. One day take a dose and get a great buzz. Another day same dose and barely any buzz. For me at least it seems like they are very dependent on what I have eaten that day prior to taking them. I would rather not have to set aside a special meal plan around getting high so smoking works better for me.

I thought I was the only one who had some weird edible tolerance.
A buddy made some banana bread and told me one slice just completely messed him up, he gave me half a loaf. I ate the entire half loaf and didn't feel high at all... just a little gross from eating a half loaf of god damned banana bread.
Edit: Does this mean hash is going to be legal at the same time as edibles?

If you are likewise a tank like myself, have more. I've never had a night ruined by sub 50 mg edibles, but all of my worst weed experiences involve 100+ mg death traps from BC. Too much of a good thing is real.
That said, it's fun to go over the line in a controlled environment. I've always believed we all have the same edible story where we 'took a little bit, waiting, nothing happened, finished the whole cookie, and then I was outside my own body counting my nipple hairs for two hours' because it's an experience that we all want, even if we don't admit it.
Also, the absolute best product on the market right now is Unplug oil from Solei. 10mg/ml oil, comes in 30ml bottles and it's $23-26 depending on location. Will get you as high or not high as you want. Cannot recommend it enough, especially vs these ridiculous 40+ mg/ml bottles I'm seeing for over a hundred bucks.

Yeah I think I’m one of the edible anomalies as well. I’ve ingested full 75mg candies on my own wand felt nothing.

That's nucking futs. I would hate to do that much.
You may want to be careful with how casually you are recommending high dosages to people, though. I think you're underestimating how crappy a high dose of edibles can make someone feel. And it lasts soooo long.

I like to have 4 pretzels (3mg) each and a Ginger Ale (10 mg). That gives me a nice buzz, that I will supplement later with another 10 - 15 mg 3 or 4 hours later

That's pretty much my dosage as well. I consider myself an 'expert' user. Good tolerance and well educated over the years about marijuana and it's effects. But edibles are a whole new ball game. To me it's almost like a completely different drug. It's a fine line between a good high, and a bad trip. Some of those edibles you can buy online have such a high THC content, it blows my mind people can eat an entire one.
I used to buy these chocolates fron an online dispensary.
These f'ing things have 300 mg of THC in them. I would eat 1 triangle, then a 2nd one two hours later. Those 2 triangles was exactly the right dosage for someone with as high a tolerance as me and with my experience. I can only imagine someone buying this and eating half, thinking they are actually taking it easy ''only eating half''.
I've seen little mini cupcakes with 150 THC. I eat 1/4, and that's more then enough for me. It's insane how much THC content these things have. Even something like a couple 5mg gummy worms are strong enough. I can eat half a bucket of regular candy gummy worms in one night. I can only imagine that somewhere in the world, some people have eaten that same amount of THC infused gummies.
I was onboard with legalization. But I always figured it's not the smokers the anti-legal crowd are going to get riled up about. It's actually the edible crowd that is going to turn heads.
We really haven't heard that much about any negative effects from legalization since it came into effect. But down the road when edibles become available, I can totally see it becoming a front-line issue when stories of people taking too much and how it's ''not like smoking'' become the topic of the day.
Edibles are a whole new ball game. 10mg is a reasonable cap. Because that's probably the dosage a normal person can take to feel the effects, and yet not be completely useless if they can't handle it.

Yeah it’s strange. I wouldnnt ever recommend something like that no, but yeah based on that I was thinking 20-30 would be kind of a normal dose for someone who has smoked a decent amount. 10 seemed like a starting dosage to me, but thinking about it like booze, that probably makes more sense.
I was thinking g more about full chocolate bars that are 100mg, but in 10 pieces. They are just nice alternative items I think. I mean, you can kill yourself with a relatively easy to obtain amount of alcohol.
Anyways, yeah my tolerance for edibles has thrown my perspective. It’s weird cuz I feel it smoking and vaping pretty easily, and have had drinks that worked. I wish the edibles worked better for me.

I was reading the other day that for a lethal dose to occur in a 200lb male 50% of the time, he would have to ingest 60000mg of THC. This was on the low end. 120000 on the high end.
So yeah, if you eat 300mg and think you might die relax and go to bed.

is the 10mg going to be per piece or per package then? previous to it being legal I got gummies from MOM. They usually had ~100-120mg/package with either 10 x 10mg, 20 x 5mg, or 4 x 30mg gummies. It really wouldn't surprise me if come December we have to go into the store and buy 10 boxes of individually wrapped gummies with how much waste the government seems to enjoy with regard to packaging.

Haha yeah, can't even believe some of the THC #s being casually thrown around on the Twitters as well. I have a very strong tolerance after all these years and have had medicinal (which is super strong in a lot of cases) the past few years, and I wouldn't touch some of these super strong edibles being mentioned...people are so crazy lol.
I'm so glad I don't have an addictive, "all in" high risk mentality many seem to. Yeah I'm concerned there's going be some serious blowback as well once this comes out, from dummies who don't know what they're doing consuming WAY too much in edible form and having a brutal experience from it. Better not affect the legality of it overall due to those types going forward

Yeah I'm with Coach. Not sure why, well maybe its my years and years of cannabis use, or the fact I'm much bigger than your average dude, but edibles seem weak to me. I've learned that anything under 50mg is pointless (for me). A 10mg capsule is not even worth the time (for me), would be like drinking 1% beer. No I didn't actually calculate that.
Having said that, I also had 100mg capsules and they do work for sure. Though I guess that wont be a legit option when it's all said and done.
Anyways, I made cannabutter this weekend from about an ounce of weed that had been vaped in my Pax. Considering its weed I already used it came out pretty good. Used it for brownies. No idea how strong they are but decently strong I'd say.

Has there been any follow-up stories about cannabis use in Canada when going through customs? I remember a lot of discussion on here about that and there were several news stories after legalization, but that was months ago.
Any update on this issue? My wife and I were thinking of buying some capsules online, but I got all paranoid about the fact that our profile could be traceable. Has this become a real issue or it was just media hype?

Tolerance is my guess. I'm a big guy too, but new to cannabis and 30mg of edibles ####s me up.
