not true. there is a limit to how high you can get. i used to smoke around 2.5 grams of top knotch hash usually bubble hash, you can look at it this way, you can keep smoking till you end up wanting to catch some zzz's but when you have a high tolerance the 'high' becomes you norm really i remember when the only time i felt 'high' was when i took dabs or else i simply felt normal when i smoked up, and somewhat off when i wasn't stoned

😭😭😭😭😭👽
 
I'll be honest, I think a little Girl Scout Cookies or Sour Diesel should set you up just right. . They're both sativas and are strong and fun to smoke. I do a retail job and every time I do it before work, its such a good time. Except one time a coworker said, I smell marijuana. WTF! I just put my head down and kept working and said, ain't that the damnest thing. I don't think anyone was the wiser. Good Times, eh?
 
Input like .2 in a joint and I feel stoned for about two hours. If a friend givesnme anspliff who outs like .4 or half s g in I get more of an intense high.
If I smoke on a pipe point one will get me few recent hits and I be more smashed than a spliff but doesn't last as long
 
I smoke daily and my tolerance is messed up. The problem I have is I am retired and have cash. I buy a 1/4 pound of one strain and another 1/4 of a different strain, buy edibles off the Rez, our natives here in BC Canada have awesome dispensaries. And I buy an ounce or 2 of pot online to mix it up, always have at least a 1/4 ounce of hash and a few grams of shatter around. So I mix it up. I wish I could stop for a day or 2 but I get really bitchy and feel like shit. The best I seem to do is vape more. Any suggestions?
And whats with the feeling like shit when I wake up...it passes but every morning I just feel ugh.
cheers

plenty of people would happily have your 'problem' lol

all you can really do is have regular tolerance breaks and if it's uncomfortable for a day or two then just front it out, won't do you any harm

Doesnt really lower your tolerance in a traditional way, but it certainly lowers it a little. Try edibles for a couple days and then switch back to smoking.

At the end of the day the only real answer is find something else to do and take some time off. Sucks, but tolerance sucks.
 
@Zonxx, the limit to how high you can get is no longer a high feeling - it is a blackout!

I remember smoking a joint with hash in it before entering a Chinese restaurant, and when the food arrived, I fell face first into the chow mein.
after emerging with a noodle shrimp face, I began throwing money everywhere. This only happened once.

I like to approach that limit without achieving it.

@heatlessbbq, anyway, I was trying to estimate the milligrams THC in the OP report, which records weights of weed and I opted for a guestimate calculation that you used bud with 20% THC - that a 0.05 gram pipe full would represent 20%*50mg=10 mg THC. (that is double my usual hoot)

Cannabis dosage, effects, and tolerance:
No Tolerance means it's been at least 2-3 days since You have smoked Cannabis.

Cannabis [marijuana] is one of the most commonly used psychedelic substances on the planet.
It has been used as a plant medicine and as entheogenic sacrament for eons now.
It can be smoked or prepared to ingest, orally [by mouth]. Cannabis has a very sensitive and balanced 'half life' and 'tolerance break'.
Acute Cannabis use is usually overwhelming and intense. Chronic Marijuana users control the experience trouble free and can handle the effects very easily.
Also, Chronic Marijuana users [who only smoke Cannabis] can cope through life better than the normal drug addict.
MIXING OTHER DRUGS WITH CANNABIS WILL PILE ON MORE 'DRUG CONSEQUENCES'.


Cannabis ~ High Potency Smoked Cannabis Dosages: - No Tolerance:

[Brief Dissociation, Relief or Light Headedness can occur when consumed all in one hit.]

Vacancy and preoccupied brain activity. Uncertain mini-revelations and epiphanies.

Some sinus congestion. Munchies, Muscle Relaxant, and Sleep Aid [much like 15 mgs of edibles].

Level 2 ~ {0.4+ grams} ~ Cannabis [With Tolerance]



Remember, every time You smoke will prolong or bring back the effects listed above.
Smoking over 0.4 grams of Cannabis in 3-15 minutes; chronically [over and over again] will not reach Level 3 or above unless mixed with other psychedelic drugs.

Also: Each milligram {mg} benchmark and trip level reached is very spot on [in this thread].
However, You will experience some / all of the effects said in lower milligram {mg} ranges.

As I am going to smoke cannabis for the first time I was looking for such information. Thank you for your guide. I have also found such a small guide at one resource. Is it good for a beginner? It gives lower dosages than in your post or I am not right.

 
For your first time take like two three hits of the joint make sure you know how to inhale so inhale it slowly then once you have the smoke in your mouth inhale that again into your lungs. See how you feel for a while then smoke more.
 
Well, i didn't read long before i saw the word "marijuana", which i prefer to translate into mari-caca, because it's NOT the best way to seek my attention to begin with the "m" word. It's like walking in a cemetary and immediately start to destroy mortuary monuments, pretending to be coming in good faith so we can have a dialog initiated with an insult. Way to go!, i'll wait for the film...

Not even a mention of the consumption method & its associated ritual anyway. Pff!! Go figure what else i might be missing. NOT
 
Even with a month long tolerance break, I need around 300-500mg orally for a good high

300-500mg what exactly?

people urgently need to distinguish between weight of flower etc and thc dose weight, the confusion leads to extremely unpleasant overdoses
 
500mg thc. (I've been an extremely heavy smoker for 15 years)


... still though you'd think after 60 days or so i wouldn't need the same amount but I do

So it takes 500mg oral thc to get you baked when your tolerance is low? :ROFLMAO:

I'm struggling to believe that , with all due respect. That would be like eating an edible made with 2.5g potent cannabis

I've used cannabis over 30 years and 500mg oral thc would have me tripping for a week I'd imagine

I get really high off 50mg, like wasted high for a good 4 or 5 hours. With plenty tolerance, Sure ymmv but not that fukkin much :)

When its low, 300 works. And no, im completely serious. Try a high dose of 500mg sometime, though if you do it often (i used to eyeball ~a half gram of distillate and eat it daily, prior to that I was smoking almost an oz a week) it might burn out your receptors a little bit. But I love it, super cozy. And it lasts like 24 hours+.

Its not super uncommon, in California medical shops used to sell 500mg single brownies, thats when I first tried it.

50-100mg from a medical dispensary and accurately labeled i feel next to nothing, maybe a bit sedated. I used to try buying from rec shops and eat the whole thing of candies, 10 10mg ones, nothing. Thought I was getting ripped off.

Though I might add, maybe 5 years into my cannabis career I took like .3 of bubble hash and melted it with butter in a spoon and had a really bad trip. 300-500mg when I'm actively smoking these days doesn't even cause any psychedelic effects, I just pass out.

never heard of anyone taking that kinda dose honestly, I do believe you though but suspect underdosed products, or not decarbed, or you're just a monster :cool:

anyone reading and trying oral cannabis first time I'd seriously advise not going above 20mg thc, really

I recently made some edibles with lots of leftover bits from various quality hash/kief batches, I estimate 60mg thc per edible and I ate one. Lots of tolerance in that I smoke 6 days weekly for over 30 years, but only around 0.5g cannabis ((circa 100mg thc) daily (sometimes plenty more obvs) in the main.

Highlights of the evening included making a mug of tea and settling down to drink it, only to find the teabag still in the cup and that it was stone cold as hadn't even boiled the kettle...and also at one point found myself on the front doorstep giggling lightly to myself at nothing in the rain as a bemused old lady hurried past...so yeah, that was on 60mg...

...so I think I'll give 500mg a swerve :)
 
On the other hand for anyone who has had underwhelming responses with oral thc, particularly for those who like to smoke hourly giant spliff, don't be afraid to push your dosage

🥳

start small first with oral thc...many have regretted doing otherwise

...you can always take more (but give it at least an hour) but you can't take less.....and edibles are notoriously unpredictable

remember it's a harm reduction website friend
