Just curious if anyone else has experienced this? I grow some amazing weed that knocks my socks off when I smoke it. When I use the same weed and doing everything correctly to make butter, coconut oil, tinctures you name it I feel like it doesn’t get me high?? Is it that edibles just don’t affect some people as much as others? Thanks
 
I'm guessing that you did remember to decarb the weed since you mention butter etc..
It definitely is different from person to person and some people just doesn't get high on edibles or just not if made from certain strains, personally the edibles usually always give me way more stone than high
 
Yes I do decarb and I think you’re partially right. I have made stuff with different strains and have gotten high as shit that’s why I can’t figure out how come my last to tried have not worked as well especially when friends I’ve given some to have told me they were awesome! Unless they were just lying to me... lol
 
Edibles don’t seem to work on me anymore. Doesn’t matter if homemade or dispensary bought. Rso doesn’t work either on me. It’s disappointing
 
Depends on the person to start with. Some people need 1000 mg. Not me I take a lot of edibles and they work but some days a lot better than others. I have never determined why? Eating food before or after does not seem to matter.
 
Yeah, if I'm on a heavy smoking kick, eating it does nothing. You have to take a few days off THC, empty stomach, then eat A LOT.

I sort of treat edibles like mushrooms in that way, rarely ever, but a scary high dose.
 
Growers tend to smoke a lot more than friends and family of a grower,as a result can have a lot higher tolerance to thc.
Make the next batch twice as strong,or have 6 slices of cake :pie:
make tinctures,butter,oils as strong as shit as they can allways be watered down so to speak if needed.
good luck n keep er lit
:pighug:
 
Has anyone having problems getting high from edibles tried using Soy or Sunflower Lecithin, it is supposed to be increasing the absorption rate a lot.

As an emulsifier, what it mostly does is ensure the fat soluble molecules are homogenized within the mixture or food. I don't think it has much of an effect in the gut, but it does create more uniform dosing.

A lot of people claim that lecithin greatly increases edible effects.
Improper decarb (240 F for 40 min works well), too-long infusion, or too-weak preparations can cause weak effects.

Rotating among several different strains helps me a lot.
I use mainly for sleep, and if I use the same strain 2 nights in a row, the second night isn't nearly as good.
I've also found many indica strains that don't work as well for sleep as others.
