:comfort:i hope some one can shed some light. im having trouble with edibles and such...ive tryed tinctures and "squibs(100mg)" and a few choco bars(100+mg) and space cakes from the dispo...no dice...met up with friend of a friend that makes the "dank" ate several of there treats and a cake a couple hours ago still nothing. the only thing that different about my digestive stuff is my body dont dig milk unless its cooked and in small amounts a cup or less, and oinions they destroy my insides similar to what people say taco bell does...TMI i know but im frustrated...I can smoke and get high. i smoke 2-5 grams a day so not sure what my deal is..

I have the same problem, and hear others complain similarly occasionally...it's rare but not unique. My personal problem is caused by mutated collagen (Ehlers Danlos Syndrome) which also results in a similarly remarkably high tolerance to opioids, and other ingested drugs.

It can be frustrating, and I basically just gave up on edibles. I'd still like to believe that upping the dosage to something like 5-10 times the 'normal' dosage would be effective, but at that point it's not really worth the effort/expenditure.

Hey Kezar ..you know, if you ask one of your buddies, perhaps they can give you the lowdown and help you out. Knowledge, you know is right down the street. We need to take a mutual day off, and I'll teach you how to bake. Sometimes the right answer is in your own backyard.

BTW....I'll get you so wrecked off of edibles you'll never want to eat them again :)

What others already said!

If your mates get high on the same edibles you ate you're one of those people can't get high off them. Seems you have tried a lot so unfortunately this is the case then. Simple as that.

Personally I do like edibles a lot but don't worry too much as you still can vape and smoke:)!

I eat edibles every day.

I eat edibles every day.

:comfort:i hope some one can shed some light. im having trouble with edibles and such...ive tryed tinctures and "squibs(100mg)" and a few choco bars(100+mg) and space cakes from the dispo...no dice...met up with friend of a friend that makes the "dank" ate several of there treats and a cake a couple hours ago still nothing. the only thing that different about my digestive stuff is my body dont dig milk unless its cooked and in small amounts a cup or less, and oinions they destroy my insides similar to what people say taco bell does...TMI i know but im frustrated...I can smoke and get high. i smoke 2-5 grams a day so not sure what my deal is..

I make my own Coconut Oil infusion. I make my Cookies with about 60mg THC. I hardly feel them but they help with my pain.

If you are eating 100mg THC TESTED* I think you may be out of luck.

If they are not tested you are just guessing.

Look at the Cooking with Canabis forum. There is some good information there.

Good Luck

P.S. My cookies kick it

yeah the cakes and squibs and choco bars were all tested... ive been trying to read up on the digestion of thc. i'm wondering if my body lacks an enzyme possibly or maybe a supplement i can take that will aid in the absorption.

If you eat edibles with food in your tummy it works a lot better....and with a warm drink would be good also....your body isn't warm enough to get the thc going in your body...need to warm it up to make it more effective. So have a nice cup of tea with your edible and see if that helps...

My experience is that everyone is different and what you need to consume is something one must learn for themselves thru trial and error. I've gotten plenty high off of edibles I made myself eating normal amounts but friends ate the same amount of the same batch and were totally wasted. Conversely I've had friends who have presented me with edibles and I felt nothing from them.

The thing you want to avoid though is going too far the other way. That's when you hear stories of people panicking and calling the ER because they think they're dying. To the best of my knowledge there is no amount you can consume or smoke that can kill you. It is possible for too much to make you feel close to death. It's a terrible experience and one best avoided if possible.

The best advice I can give is to use the recommended dose as a starting point and then gradually over however many days it takes, increase your dosage until you start to feel it The only other thing I can think of is that the cannabinoids in marijuana like to bond with fat so you wouldn't want the ingredients to be fat free nor would you want to use margarine instead of butter. Oh and one last thing, it's best to cook it in a dish that doesn't require high temps. That's why it's most commonly found in baked goods because many of them cook at 325 degrees F. The higher the temp the more likely the cannabinoids will degrade.

bacon, or avocado will make it last longer, so if you're not getting a buzz with edibles, eating fat will make that last twice as long.

i regularly eat concentrate for my health, it doesn't get me high (1/4 gram daily) and smoking still works for me too. just don't feel edible vibes. you're not alone.

Have u tried a suppository yet...

Cookies for me take an obscene amount to get that "shitfaced" kinda feeling where my pain is totally gone.

I put .3g extract in each cookie....and most people eat 1/4 to get where I wanna be....Me..I need 6-8 cookies to hit that point..

Upside to growing is I can afford to get high on edibles.

Not needing my relief that bad i guess. though you are the second person to recommend that style.

like i said smoking still works so... the main reason im even on the edible route right now is im tired of coughing up "lung butter" i blame the flowerz for that. concentrates are expensive for me 25-50 bones a gram. to rich for me i cant swing that. im working on the growing part so.. till the quantities required come to make my own... until that day im stuck with whats available.

Thanks again to all the responses everyone!

As for the Cookies, I eat mine (65mg THC) with a 200 mg Motrin and it works pretty well.

I need to get a mold and I have just been to lazy.

I have Rectal Cancer and have just finished 6 weeks of Chemo and Radiation therapy (daily). I am recovering now awaiting surgery. (probably 1st of the year).

Anyone else have any first hand experience with suppositories ?

Any information would be appreciated.

Peace

eat a high fat meal and drink some CannaMilk.. or try one of the 100mg bars again.

if you just get warm... and almost feel something.. you are like me and its pointless to try and get "High" from eatables..

This happened to me after eating a ton of eatables like brownies with a gram of hash in each corner and a very potent cannabutter in the mix.. now they don't work anymore.. even if i take a break for months.
