Edibles are products that contain cannabinoids and can be consumed through various ways such as sublingually, buccally or through digestion. There are different types of edibles such as gummies, baked goods, THC beverages, mints and hard candies, and THC-infused cooking and baking oils. THC tends to be the most popular cannabinoid in edibles, but there are also CBD edibles and full-spectrum edibles that contain THC, CBD, and other lesser-known cannabinoids. Edibles work differently, depending on how they are consumed. Edibles like candies and lozenges stay in the mouth and are absorbed through the thin skin in the cheek and under the tongue. This process gets the cannabinoids to the bloodstream faster than edibles like brownies that need to be digested.

The time it takes for marijuana edibles to work depends on the type of edible, what you ate that day, your gender, weight, tolerance levels, and the THC dosage. In general, it is recommended to wait a full hour to feel the effects of an edible. Starting slow with a low dose is advisable to figure out what’s right for you, depending on the edible you’re consuming.

The most popular types of edibles at dispensaries fall into one of five categories: gummies and chews, baked goods and cannabis brownies, THC beverages and drink mixes, marijuana mints and hard candies, and THC-infused cooking and baking oils. Edibles come in different dosages that typically range from 2.5 mg to 10 mg of THC per serving. It’s important to read the packaging to understand how much THC is in each serving to help you better dose your edible.

In contrast to edibles, flower is the dried and cured cannabis plant material that can be smoked or vaporized. While smoking flower can offer a faster onset of effects than edibles, the effects also tend to be shorter-lived. In contrast, edibles can take longer to take effect, but their effects tend to last longer.

In conclusion, edibles are a popular way to consume cannabis, with different types of products and dosages available. Understanding how edibles work, how much THC is in each serving, and how they compare to other cannabis products such as flower can help you choose the best method of consumption for your needs. It’s also important to start slow and be mindful of dosage to avoid any unpleasant side effects.
