How does strain selection impact edibles?

[Grow Tech]

Hey All,
I do a fair amount of edibles. I always just use a salad of trim and budlettes and have never really kept my strains seperated when it comes to baking. Most of my garden is indica and I like a heavy heavy body effect. Heres my question-
If I started off with a more sativa heavy hybrid then I usually grow, will I notice much difference in the edibles I make with it? Or...does the hours the butter spends in the croc pot, the baking of the cookies, and the edible ingestion result in a more consistent effect across strains?

Much Thanks

We notice a difference

You'll notice a bit of a difference, but IMO, it's not as apparent as with smoking.

TGS has it basically. there really is no difference. the eating high is the same all around...just more intense than normal sometimes depending on what kind or how much you used.

Thanks for the replies.
I do recall having some SSH capsules awhile back that initially gave me what I would consider "normal" edible effects. About 6 hours after ingestion though, I woke up trippin balls. My head was spinning hard and I felt speeded. I managed to get back to sleep but woke up in the morning feeling way hung. I discussed my experience with a few others and was a bit relieved to find that some others had experienced similar effects at least once. The common thread was edible made with a sativa dominant strain. The delayed "peaking" really threw me especially since I had enjoyed hours of "typical" body centric medication. I will continue to stick with at least indica dominant strains but may try up to a 50/50 hybrid.

Peace

This is an interesting question. I think maybe Sativa's could be more harsh because they have a faster, racier, sometimes paranoid high, where as eating too much Indica might just put you to sleep. I would like to try capsules...
