i'm concluding that dispensary thc gummies are a serious waste of money

My wife doesn't need many of the dispensary gummies to feel it (maybe 20-40mg at most), but unless I take something like 400 mg of those I won't be feeling it. Conversely, when I eat my decarbed weed from my vape in amounts like 4-5g, I feel nice and toasty.
 
i took 50mgs of some gummies and had a better experience than doing just the 30mgs.

the price of the gummies dropped a bit, so it's not that bad of a deal. prob still economical to buy flower and cook it up, but i guess there a lot of cholesterol in the buttery stuff..



i actually had a really good experience taking 50mgs of gummies.. with flower i've had pretty good bud in about gram servings before in butter and it was always way stronger than i would ever want, then on the opposite end of that trying to have less i've always been under whelmed or not the high i wanted...

taking 50mgs of gummies was pretty straight. i felt baked but not overwhelmed for a couple hours. don't really remember ever getting such a good high with butter.

i ate the gummies hours after having some cigarettes. really helped me relax. not sure if overcoming the cigarettes made me feel kind of really good. idk. was a really good high... these were some pricier RSO gummies. i'm gonna try 50mgs of the cheaper brand. idk. hopefully they are good.. some day i might do like 75mgs or 100mg, but i'll probably get the same experience as the butter. i felt closer to a smoking experience with 50mgs of gummies than any other high i've had... idk. i don't even use edibles often. there isn't supposed to be a permanent tolerance issue, but i feel like i was having a good time with 30mgs gummies (not nearly as intense as my 50mg experience) and they started to feel less potent after using them every other week or so.
 
i would definitely still make butter if i didn't have to move to housing where weed was illegal in the future..

despite the price of gummies dropped. the price of weed dropped too... you could get more high for cheaper cooking up the butter where i'm from
 
40mg of sativa gummies crushed me. Ended up laying down and going to sleep. People take too high of doses now that it's legal or semi-legal in a lot of places. It's one drug where moderation definitely pays off and you can use just a little and feel great for an hour or two with pretty much no consequences, but a lot of people can't do that and take like 400mg or whatever ridiculous amount

there is a youtuber popular for doing high dose gummies like 1000mgs. dunno if he was doing the farm bill ones or what. he started to have psychosis issues regardless.

i'm just gonna get tired and miserable stoned if i take a lot of them (like 100mgs)... there is too much sugar in them for me to take over 100mgs.... i'm thinking like 60-70mgs might be perfect buzz for me.... hopefully i don't get a tolerance and can use them every few days.

I completely agree. While I don’t consume thc anymore due to it causing me anxiety attacks. I so badly want to get back into it but I have such terrible anxiety. I start feeling like this feeling of impending doom :/ I’ve purchased a bag of very low dose thc but have yet to give it a try. It will probably go stale before I ever consume them. I’m off topic but when I did smoke my friend would make these lovely thc buttery caramels. They tasted just like butter beer 🍻
 
It depends on your state but I'm inclined to agree. When I'm home I never buy edibles from Rhode Island dispensaries. The dosage maxes out at 10mg per gummy so I would have to eat half of a bag to get high. And the edibles available are always pretty gross and not entirely in the sense that they taste bad, the Incredibles brand is actually really good flavor wise, but the high is so dogshit it's not at all worth the waste of money. You always feel like you're being baked in at 425F and crusty as hell. I go to Maine a lot and there the prices for edibles are a lot more fair imo. I would even argue Massachusetts prices on edibles aren't terrible either. I was in Maine last week and got these 2500total mg edibles with each gummy containing 250mg of thc each. They have pretty good highs, my partner and I have been cutting them in half. Even the drinks are really good, I got this really yummy 100mg grape soda, Dope brand for anyone wondering, the Maine Highbrow brand is really good, they seem to be pretty popular. But I would say generally, edibles aren't worth it so I smoke flower lmao.

i'm not trying to convince people not to get them if they are convenient and they have the money, but if you want to save some cash, just make your own edibles... honestly cooking like a half gram of average weed in butter which is a great deal cheaper will be more potent than like 50mgs of thc edibles... my dispensaries charge so much for the gummies compared to flower... it's just not right.. i ate 40mgs of gummies. 30 was my usual dose and 40 is like barely noticable and i only do edibles once every couple weeks.

i was hoping the extra 10mgs would hit me... i dunno... i'm more into smoking than edibles. i haven't been cooking my own cause i have to move to federal housing and cooking weed is considered drug manufactuing at this point. would be nice if weed became federally legal so i could cook some weed... i dunno. i'll probably only buy gummies like a couple times a year when i have to move to smoke free housing... when i can't go out to smoke i'll just vape even though smoking is better... idk.

just something for people that haven't learned to cook weed that might be in a state where stuff is becoming legal.. i'll have to post this on reddit. i assume most people here already know that cooking your own stuff is gonna be cheaper... honestly though, the carts have gotten so much cheaper. edible prices really aren't dropping. with how much flower they use to extract the live resin they have, it has to be about the same amount of weed. only one dispensary has decent carts for a good price though. i'm pretty lucky to have that dispensary. they pushing the deals in my state but keeping decent quality.

i've already definitely posted about edibles before. made an RSO thread i could've posted this in, but if any body not on this site that is new to smoking wants to save some cash and has a place they can cook weed, it's a fun hobby.

THC gummies are completely useless for me unless I eat a fatty meal with them like a hamburger then they work just fine.
