cooking vs smoking tolerance?

[Rob547]

Any with me that notices they don't get as effected by cooked thc as opposed to smoking it. Not that Im a professional weed chef or anything, but we recently made cookies that effected everyone else a good amt. but not me very much

wtf? anyone feel my pain?

 

[Haps]

If you get it right, it is like tripping on weed very cool, completely different experience. If you get a mild stone, just enjoy it, I don't get it right every time, practise, practice, hehe.

Try it again and get busy, maybe it will sneak up on you. I smoked for almost 40 yrs and had to quit because of lung problems. Eating cookies is the way I go these days. It took some to get use to it, but we are best buddies these days me and my cookies.

cooking with canna butter

is wonderful. I can eat a medicated muffin or some carmels or some rice krispy treats, even cookies every 5 hours and life is much easier. I don't have to look for a place to medicate every 2 or 3 hoours.

I have noticed that when I don't think it is working it is often because I am in my home and a controled environment... go to the store and then let me know if it worked or not... and the high is different. Now I only smoke in the evening and spend my day with mediables.

I feel your pain... I did the same recently, made some brownies... about an oz in them. Nothing... My Wife ate 1 brownie and was high for like 5 hours??(WTF).
I did another batch to see if I did something wrong?? I put like an oz and half in this batch. This morning I started off with 2 of them... my wife ate 1 again, needless to say I just got back from the mall my wife called and lost her keys(set them down and spaced off) and she kept blaming it because she was so high from the brownie.
I am pissed because I want to get high also??? I smoke and catch a buzz no problem. I just dont get it??

I prefer cooked as well. A completely different buzz without anxiety attacks.

OH, I almost forgot! You have to eat on an empty stomach or you wont catch a buzz!!! (In my case anyways)

 

[scruffy]

You will need to eat at least twice as much as you would smoke to get the same "level" of buzz. Perhaps some peoples' digestive tracts just don't work as planned and don't absorb THC as well? Especially if your wife is getting really high from less.

I've heard all kinds of crazy wives' tales about eating- it has to be cooked, the moon has to be or can't be full, all kinds of bs. Keep trying, it's a real nice buzz when you get there, nice and even and strong.

i dont get high eating pot stuff, period. Ive wasted countless lbs, and oz's of hash and kief trying to get a simple head change from eating it. Others will be completely blown away for hours off a single cookie and i will eat the entire rest of the batch and not feel anything at all. I had a buddy pickup 4 of the "extreme potency" carrot cake's they sell at a popular bay area club (they fit in palm of your hand) and i ate them on the spot, no effect whatsoever except an upset stomach because it was the first thing i ate all day after driving 8+ hours, lol, I was hoping for some kinda effect after the budtender talked them up so much. So far its just been money down the drain, I feel your pain!

[pseudostelariae]

i feel your pain man..i've eaten a few brownies and "firecrackers" as well as what a friend called a "leary biscuit", but none of it ever worked very well..i'm still waiting to try a triple dose brownie my sister claims will blow my mind, so i'm hoping that will work at least lol

 

[b8man]

I thought you had to eat it with something fatty for the THC to attach to the fat cells and be absorbed?

 

[Big Brother]

Only way that I can get high with THC buds is by smoking, it takes quite a few buds to make better, a girl friend and I grew a few Hindu Kush and we took the buds off two mature plants at harvest to make a few cubes of butter to make a pan of brownies. I would rather smoke it my pipe. :

 

[British_Bulldog]

It's strange to me that eating doesn't get some people high, as for me it has a very strong and profound effect.

I think it's also because I'm sensitive to all drugs and have a very fast metabolism.

It's great because I can get very (very!) wasted without having sore lungs afterwards trying to get wrecked, but I also have a deep respect for eating thc and only do it (nowadays!) when it's the appropriate time for it, and I don't have to work! (whereas previously I would sprinkle high grade buds on my cereal for breakfast before work, lol, eat more at lunch time with a milkshake, then smoke out in the evening! High as a kite all day, lol

I'm sorry that some of you guys can't get high by eating, as it's a great experience.


Peace

I was talking to a friend he said that people who eat lots of fats, oils, meats, fried food, ect. Have a hard time processing all the extra fat, which is what THC binds too (it passes through your system). I'm a vegetarian, and I can eat half a cookie and get blasted for up to 7 hours, 12 if I eat a whole cookie.

It could also be a load of crap as well, but to my experience people who eat less fats, get hammered by cookies, cakes, brownies, ect.
