Your Guide to Edibles and Dosages: Enjoy Cannabis in All Its Forms!

THC-infused edibles have long been considered one of the most effective, long-lasting, and enjoyable ways to experience relief and wellness through cannabis. In order to properly enjoy cannabis in this tasty form, we must understand how edibles work as well as how big of a dose we should take to maximize our wellness and elevation.

Dosing Guide For Edibles

At the time of this writing, cannabis legalization is experiencing unparalleled support among American voters. With legalization spreading through the country at a state-level, more and more individuals are getting introduced to cannabis edibles. Easy to consume but easier to overdo, properly dosing your edible is the first step toward enjoying it. It is additionally beneficial to acquire edibles from professional sources, such as All Greens Dispensary.

Cannabis can impact every person differently, with that being said there are some foundational guidelines we can generally adhere to while picking the size of our first dose.

Standard Dose (5 – 10 mg)

  • Effects: Pain & Stress Relief (Mild), Anxiety Reduction, Uplifting

  • Ideal For First Time Consumers

Ideally, first-timers to the world of cannabis-infused edibles will opt for a dose between 5mg and 10mg in size. As cannabis edibles are often packaged in 100mg containers, this allows for newcomers to experiment as they build their ideal dosage chart.

Strong Dose (15 — 25mg)

  • Effects: Pain & Stress Relief (Strong), Euphoria, Impaired Motor Skills, Creativity

  • Ideal For Experienced Consumers

After growing comfortable with doses in the 5 to 10mg range, experienced edible consumers will find more value from stronger doses.

ExperiencedDose (50mg +)

  • Effects: Strong Euphoria, Impaired Perception, Sedation

  • Ideal For Medical Use / Experienced Recreational

Individuals who require more pronounced effects from their cannabis edibles will likely find more value from stronger doses. Cannabis edibles with 50mg+ of THC will have pronounced effects on individuals with even high tolerance.

FAQ: Understanding Cannabis Edibles

A brief glance into your favorite local dispensary will reveal a catalog brimming with cannabis edibles. Edibles can include everything from Cake Pops and Honey Sticks to Brownies and Rice Krispy treats, limited only by the creativity of the cultivator. These potent snacks can feature anywhere from 1mg to 100mg of THC per dose, thus providing a large range of potential outcomes for the consumer.

In the old days, long before cannabis legalization was trending, edibles often took the form of a brownie handed to you by a friend. While times have changed, the basics have not.

When Does an Edible ‘Kick In’?

An incredibly important question, edibles are integrated by the body in an entirely different way, often providing much more intense bodily effects than cannabis consumed through inhalation. The cannabis edible needs to be digested and metabolized by the body for the effects to be fully imparted. Depending on the individual and their metabolism, it can take up to two hours for an edible to have its desired effect.

Can I Overdose on Cannabis Edibles?

Nobody has ever been reported to have died from the over consumption of cannabis. That being said, cannabis edibles can leave individuals uncomfortable should they over-consume. Take a patient approach to consume edibles until your tolerance has been assessed.

How Long Will the Effects of an Edible Last?

Cannabis edibles can dramatically impact an individual depending on their metabolism, the concentration of the edible, and the stomach contents of the individual in question.

Traditionally, edibles are crafted with highly concentrated cannabis, sometimes derived from infused oil or even cannabis-infused butter. Longevity will vary based upon tolerance as well, with individuals reporting effects between 1 and 6 hours after consuming an edible.

What Are the Recreational Rules in Arizona?

What Are the Recreational Rules in Arizona?

The ongoing push for widespread cannabis legalization has led many states to become early adopters of their own laws. Arizona is one such state that has embraced legalized cannabis in its many different forms. Beginning in 2010, voters in the state of Arizona would help to pass the Arizona Medical Marijuana Act.  Ten years later, Arizonians would legalize recreational cannabis use for adults aged 21 and over through Proposition 207.

While legalized cannabis may present exciting opportunities, it still falls to you to understand the laws behind legal cannabis use. Let’s explore the recreational rules put in place in Arizona through the implementation of Prop 207.

Commodity Restrictions

Recreational cannabis use has many restrictions put in place, beginning with age limits. Adults 21 and older can possess up to 1 ounce of marijuana with only 5 grams of that number consisting of cannabis concentrates. Individuals possessing more than one ounce but less than 2.5 ounces are still breaking the law, albeit with a petty offense.

Cannabis users in the recreational sphere are also limited to a maximum of 100 mg of THC per package of edibles, limiting to 10MG of THC per serving in a standard product.

Additionally, a 16% excise tax is applied to recreational cannabis products, the same as with alcohol and cigarettes. Money accrued through excise tax will go toward funding a variety of state agencies, dispersed between varying districts, police departments, and fire stations. Additional funding is made available for the Highway User Fund.

Finally, home cultivation is legal for individuals with licensing. However, home cultivation of cannabis is limited to 6 plants at a primary residence and 12 plants at a residence with two or more individuals aged 21+.

Operational Restrictions

Cannabis use can impair your ability to drive or operate machinery. As a result, driving, boating, or flying while impaired to the slightest degree remains completely illegal and will be punished as such.l Due to how long cannabis can stay within one’s system, it is incredibly important to refrain from operating a vehicle after consumption.

Cannabis use also remains illegal in all public places, including restaurants, sidewalks, and parks. Offenders will be found guilty of a simple petty offense.

Finally, marijuana testing facilities will all test cannabis for any potentially harmful contaminants including pesticides and molds, among others.

Top Strains for Increasing Your Appetite

Top Strains for Increasing Your Appetite

There are few experiences more closely tied to cannabis use than the midnight munchies. Hunger-boosting terpenes can have even the most ardent smokers reaching for their favorite snack or sweet treat. Even though the endocannabinoid system will change how each individual person reacts to terpenes, munchies are a common enough occurrence in a variety of common strains.

If you are looking to induce your appetite, consider the following strains on your next visit to the All Greens Dispensary!

Top Strains For Appetite

While the exact reason for cannabis-related munchies is still unclear, many researchers suggest that THC interacts with a hormone in our body that increases both our sense of smell and our sense of taste. For these reasons, individuals struggling from a lack of appetite can find their way to a fulfilling meal with their favorite cannabis products.

Listed below, you’ll find four of our favorite strains for increasing your appetite.

Wedding Cake

A classic strain for every Hybrid lover, Wedding Cake comes from a potent cross featuring Triangle Kush and Animal Mints. Your first hit of Wedding Cake will hit with a creamy sweet flavor that quickly unveils peppery notes beneath. Wedding Cake is ideal for medicinal patients as it provides appetite stimulation, pain relief, and even relief from insomnia. Soaring THC content ensures a psychoactive experience that leaves you reaching for your favorite munchies at all hours of the day.

Thin Mint GSC

Also known by Thin Mint or Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies, this powerful strain comes from a potent cross featuring OG Kush and Durban Poison. Imbued with purple hues, this dark green flower has a powerful full-bodied hybrid effect that provides appetite stimulation, pain reduction, and even nausea relief.

Pineapple Express

Named after more than just the funniest stoner comedy of our generation, Pineapple Express is a Sativa-driven hybrid that provides an energizing buzz that packs a punch, induces your appetite, and even provides some semblance of pain relief. A great early-morning strain, consider reaching for a pre-roll of Pineapple Express before making your breakfast.

OG Kush

Considered one of the legendary strains of the cannabis world, OG Kush is a remarkable flower that comes from Northern California. This Indica-dominant hybrid has parental lineage raced back to powerhouse strains like Pakistani Kush and Chemawg, providing a true powerful appetite-stimulating effect before leading to restful sleep.
