Edibles Dosing Guide for Beginners
Understanding Edibles
Edibles are cannabis-infused products that are ingested, such as candies, chocolates, and baked goods. They take longer to take effect than smoked cannabis and can have a stronger impact.
Start with a Low Dose
When trying edibles for the first time, start with a low dose. A typical dose for a beginner is 2.5 to 5 milligrams of THC.
Wait for Effects
Edibles take longer to take effect than smoked cannabis, typically 30 minutes to an hour. Wait at least two hours before consuming more.
Stay Hydrated
Drinking water can help manage the effects of edibles and prevent dehydration.
Know Your Body
Everyone's body reacts differently to cannabis. Be aware of your tolerance and adjust your dose accordingly.

If you're unsure about dosing or have any concerns, consult a healthcare professional.
