First time with weed - what to do?

Hi all,
I will be getting some weed and have never smoked it before. Just wondering if eating it is a legitimate option. Any real disadvantages? Basically, for stealth purposes, I can't smoke it in or around my house. And I want to be in my house. Should I just eat it?
Thanks!

Well you would have to cook with it. Can't just eat it. This is because the THC in the weed (what gets you high) needs to be decarboxylated (heated to a specific temp.) and then bound to a fat, because it is fat soluble. All this sounds complicated, but it's as easy as cooking some bud in some oil. If you were to eat, I would recommend making "Fire Crackers" which is basically: Bud and peanut butter/nutella in between two graham crackers and then cooked in the oven for 15-20 minutes at 325 (I think). I'd google it to find a recipe to your standards.
But, this leaves me with the point that edibles can be really strong, and it's pretty easy to get way too high, way too easily. A gram of weed can probably make 3-5 edibles for someone without a tolerance if prepared right. IMO I would just wait until you can find a time to smoke it, see how that goes - and see if you would like to eat it later on.

I highly suggest smoking/vaping before you eat edibles. Eating can be a completely different monster. I make cannabudder with my trim/trash and one cookie puts me on my ass. Mildly psychedelic tbh and its a pure(almost) indica strain atm. If you do eat some dose very small and wait at least two hours to see how it feels.
Smoking and vaping gets you high in minutes. Edibles can take a long time to kick in but when they do....ohmehgawd....

Find a way to smoke it and save yourself a lot of trouble. Edibles effects will last a long time, especially with no tolerance, how long do you want to be high for? I've had slight effect last into the next day before with a strong dose.

STEP 1: buy some stinky pot, preferably from a long haired hippie dude. STEP 2: take the pot and put it into a bong. any bong will do. STEP 3: nurse said bong until you reach desired highness. you will know when the time is right. STEP 4: get real acquainted with the couch until it seems necessary to preform step 1 again.

Thanks for the input everyone! I guess I will just wait until I can smoke/vape or something.
I don't really care how long the high lasts for or how intense it is. Just wanna know what its like. Will just be alone in my room for a day with nothing to do kinda thing.

You will have to bound it to a fat first as others have stated. Making it into butter is easy but it is only worth it if you have a lot of weed and butter and have a few hours to properly make it. Plus, eating it is waaaaay different. You will get fucked up, especially for your first time. You may have a psychedelic type experience. I know when I first started smoking it was very psychedelic. (Eating it is far more psychedelic though.) Wait until you are alone and use something as a filter to smoke it. Back in the day I would use toilet paper roll cardboard and dryer sheets as a filter for the smell. Or you can blow it into a pillow or something. I would not suggest eating it for your first time. You need to familiarize yourself to the effects before jumping to something like that. It metabolizes differently when you eat it compared to smoking and the effects will last for hours compared to maybe a couple of hours when smoked. Your best bet is to smoke it for now. Also, the smell from the smoke will not linger for very long, so if you have a few hours alone and spray some air freshener you will be fine.

Step 1: Take the plant material. Step 2: Light the plant material and inhale. Step 3: Watch Pink Floyd Live at Pompeii

I agree with smoking first as others have said. A lot of people argue that edibles give you a body high vs head high so wanting to eat them to see what MJ is like wont really give you the right experience IMO. You may experience something you like or don't but it may not be what most people consider the high off weed.
Plus it usually takes a few tries to cook edibles right. No sense doing that if you have a limited amount. Plus you may just sit there and convince yourself you f'ed it up before it even started leading to a paranoid type state when the high actually hits you. Oh and a sploof (toilet paper roll and dryer sheets) like the poster above said works pretty well if the smell is your concern.

Hahaha. I knew someone would comment on this. Its because I was sitting here thinking of a name, and I looked on the ground and there was a green box, so I just chose that. 
Anyway, thanks a lot guys. Will definitely smoke it first. Maybe just go for a little walk or something. Kinda hard where I live, but I'll find a way!

We used to put it in the end of a cigarette back when I was young. Just twist it till some tobacco falls out, replace with weed...smoke it. By the time you take your couple hits, the evidence is gone! Of course, you need to smoke cigarettes convincingly. And some people hate tobacco...I just quit, but I'd make an exception if I had no papers or pipe or soda can or apple or bong or gravity bong or....

But really smoke it first. Then watch Pink Floyd Live at Pompeii. Sorry, it is just kinda' required.
Until you watch that, we do not care how much weed you have smoked.
Smoke, watch, return.
Then we will discuss
K?
