What’s your dose? (THC edibles) and what’s wrong with me?
    #27117956 - 12/31/20 10:24 AM (3 years, 1 month ago)

I’ve been a daily cannabis smoker for 20 years. I stopped smoking in March and then abstained entirely from the weeds until October.

I decided to get back into a more chill state of mind .. consequently I purchased a half as well as some 200 proof food grade ethanol... started making tinctures.

It wasn’t smoking.. but I enjoyed it more than a traditional edible.

Good shelf like, small volume for dosing and it kicks in faster than regular edibles (not much faster - 35 minutes for onset on an empty stomach)

One downside is making tinctures is time consuming...

A friend suggested I get a medical card so I could just purchase some pre made edibles.

I did just that starting about two weeks ago.

I went to a dispensary and purchased some gummies to get my feet wet.

They made this big deal about not eating more than one 10mg gummy to start so I don’t  freak out. This is reasonable advice.  They don’t know me or my smooth style.

I thought it was a bad batch. The gummies did nothing.



The Point of all this is I have now gone to several dispensaries, tried a ton of product from different manufactures.

I need consume a 100mg lemonade and a 50 mg chocolate before I can reach an effective dose.

This is total shit. I cannot afford to spend that kind of money. Most people I know still smoke.. and consume edibles. Most of my friends consume way more than me period.

They can eat a gummy or two - maybe three and they are set.

Does anyone else have a tolerance issue like this or a similar experience.

I’m gonna take a break to bring down my tolerance in the mean time. I’m not feeling optimistic.

that's a pretty crazy tolerance, I'm not a wake and bake type but I get high almost every evening for like 4 years now, and for me 20mg is a nice dose, 40 is way too much. I've heard others have a ridiculous tolerance like you describe, probably time to take a t-break

I've also found some edibles seem way weaker than advertised (mostly before it became legal in my country)
they aren't even allowed to sell anything stronger than 10mg though which is kinda bullshit, as I need to get two of something just to get high

edibles have never had an effect on me either except in ridiculous doses even with no tolerance but tinctures work a  little better

i think its the way some people metabolise food or something. "dont eat a whole one" ill take 12 plz

Usually if the dose is 1 cookie, I need a dozen to tell. But I'm the guy doing dabs every 15 min , then a bongload or 2 to try to get high.

I was an all day every day smoker for a while, but for the past 7 years or so I can only be described as an occasional user.
10mg is a nice manageable dose. If I want to get super baked I just smoke a bowl.

Sorry man. Might have better luck making your own. I made an infused olive oil that knocks me on my ass if I drink just 1/5 oz , bottle's gonna last me forever.

you know how some people get insanely high off of codeine because their livers metabolize a shitload of it into morphine, and some people dont get any effect from it because their livers metabolize almost none if it into morphine?

probably the same with THC. some people metabolize it into hyroxy THC very efficiently and get blitzed off of 10mg. some people metabolize into inactive things very quickly and can eat 100mg and barely feel anything.

I am personally somewhere in the middle. a 40-50mg dose would get me strongly buzzed even when I had a smoking tolerance, but I would need at least 2-200mg to get the notorious genuine "couchlocked" edible stone

the last time I took edibles I took 300mg after not using pot for like 5 months and I was zonked out for a full 24 hours. I slept for like  18 hours straight

btw, what state do you live in that you can get away with being a daily weed smoker given your profession? I might need to move.

I try but there's only so much a guy can do in a state like Texas. There's still a critical mass of shitbrained evangelist right wingers.

Likely something to do with your metabolism or liver enzymes.  I have one friend with the same issue  that you’re describing; no matter how many edibles he eats, nothing.. Whereas another guy I know gets blasted off of 5mg for +12hr.. You don’t happen to have red hair by any chance do you? Edibles Don’t Work: Where Edibles And Redheads Intersect

Untrue. I'm at peace with it now but I've never liked it.

Yeah, I’m not really sure if the red hair/tolerance correlation holds water or not, but it’s interesting nonetheless. Its probably baader-meinhof, but fwiw my friend with the high tolerance to medibles is a blonde but with a red beard..  :strokebeard:  I also carry the gene for red hair and though I can certainly get high from eatables, I need to start at 50-75mg.

Lots of ppl lie about what they put in there edibles or they have no idea what they are doing and/or dont mix properly. When i first started buying gummies i had to eat 3-4 20 mg gummies to get a good buzz , but that was way to expensive so i made my own , now i eat 1 30 mg bear n im ripped.

Check out this recipe if you want to make your own, i use 15 gs of good quality shatter mixed to the coconut oil to get about 360ish 30-35 mg gummy bears thatll actualy fick you up . Jst make sure you decarb the shatter before you mix it because it wont decarb properly once mixed.

My Gummy Recipe:

1 big box jello (170 grams)
6 tbsp knox gelatin
1-2 tsp citric acid powder
1 cup cold juice-no pulp
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup vegtable glycerin
1 tsp sunflower lecithin
5 tbsp coconut oil
2 drops Lorann Preserve-it Antioxidant
2 drops Lorann Mold inhibitor


The process is everything with it like tempering chocolate or making suckers with hard candy, temperature is the key. There are make it or brake it ingredients that make the difference between store bought an "There good if ya keep em in the fridge." Corn syrup gives the sweet an the citric acid gives a sour so go 2 tsp is ya favor the pucker effect. The citric acid also adds a shelf stability with its natural preservative nature. Vegtable glycerin give it the bounce an spring back that is essential. I'm alergic to soy an it sucks anyway so I use sunflower lecithin which is a must to keep the coconut oil emulsified an keep your concentrate in even levels between gummies. For the juice I like to use gateraide or other 100% juices like tart cherry is a killer one I found that I use in my fruit punch recipe. So lets get to the process........



I start by adding all my ingredients that are dry in a small sauce for a single batch, but a stew pot if you're going to do a bigger batch (380-390 bears per batch so make sure you have the molds to pour out a big batch if you do). Get your timer an set it to 20 minutes, add the juice an stir till evenly wet an no dry clumps an count down. This is the blooming process that is one of the essential steps to a quality gummy.

Now get your candy thermometer an stick it in so its half way into the mix but not touching the bottom. Put the heat on medium an raise the temp to 140 then slowly stir together till you have a nice liquid mix. Now you're going to raise it to 160, at that point you will add all the rest of the ingredients. Have all your ingredients measured an set aside ready while it blooms. I add lecithin, then coconut oil, veg glycerin, light corn syrup, the antioxidant drops then the mold inhibitor drops. I take a hand blender with a egg beater single attachment an mix everything till the coconut oil is fully emulsified. I use a soup ladle to mix later to not create more bubbles an it helps when you need to fill your squeeze bottle to fill the molds. Watch the temperature as to not go above 180, so once I hit 160 I turn down the heat to medium-low to get it at a working temp of 140-150. Once you get it to a workable temp you can start filling the molds. Keep mixing each time you go to refill your squeeze bottle.


Now that the molds are all filled you need to move them to the freezer for an hour. I used cheap aluminum serving trays that were a buck for 2 at the dollar store. I fit 2 on it an use cut pvc pieces to act as spacers an I stack 5 -6 trays in a shelf if that helps.


Once they come out you let them sit for another 3 hours to let them dry/cure a lil bit. Next step is the cornstarch dusting which is just a small pinch in a Tupperware with 1 mold of gummies at a time shaken up, then another pinch an shake some more until you notice then don't stick together an have a slight frost look. Immediately package with a heat sealer to preserve freshness an your done.
