    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 love how you are having a realization from another user basically say “holy shit man, how are you alive”

          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

                  Idk what part of the US you are in but my advice is always the same. Find good people and you’ll find weed somewhere.

                  Coworkers/neighbors/etc become friends and before you know it somebody is asking if the other smokes and you’ve got a hookup.

      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
