A Few Edible Tips Before You Go
- Start low, go slow: Especially if you’re new. 5mg to 10mg is a great starting point.
- Wait before redosing: Effects can creep up, give it at least 2 hours.
- Different forms = different onset: Drinks and mints hit faster than baked goods or capsules.
- Label-checking is your friend: Know what cannabinoids are in your edible (CBD, THC, CBN, etc.)
