it depends on the dosage and if it is made correctly. Too high of heat and it burns off.
I know what your going thru.. I really REALLY REALLY do.. however I have some info which may help you and some others out.
Medibles are going to work different on EACH INDIVIDUAL.
One person may need only .25g to get 100% medicated (perhaps even to the point of being sick.
Another person (such as myself-yourself may need as much as 2-3-4 grams to feel anything and then once you "feel it" you may not really know what your feeling or if it is even working.
The effects of medibles are also going to vary on EACH INDIVIDUAL as well. I have never had the giggly goofy feeling on medibles or smoked pot. (I did as a kid.. now 41 started smoking age 16 stopped age 24..started again age 40>)
I also do not get the tired feeling as often as I would like either.. buddy I know takes any medible and he is asleep wthin 2 hours... he hates them lol.
The effects I most commonly feel after using medibles/caps.
1. Less pain. within 45-90 mins on empty stomach.
2. Nausea 100% gone 20 mins with 2 caps about 1g
3. Mental clarity 45-90mins
4.Sleepiness (depends on the medibles/capsules ready for sleep usually within 3 hours so I am not like totally zonked out 45mins after eating it.
What I think most people really are looking for is the psychoactive trippy feeling aka being stoned.. Honestly I think this is the biggest misconception of medibles.
if you have a hard time or have a bigger tolerence smoking it I am guessing your medible tolerance may also be high.. HOWEVER dont just go and start big.. pace yourself start low.. add more as you see needing..
If I smoke it I need to smoke 2 joints within a 30-45 min time period and then the relief is very short lived max 2 hours if its potent stuff.. Medibles (or I should say capsules are working very well.. (taking up to 50 a day... but.. it's working)
basic summary...
1. Don't give up... there is something for you that will work.. I am STILL after a year finding out via trial and errors be it using coconut oil rather then olive or or using coconut oil and sesame oil together. If you can go back and check out my old threads.. I am pretty open about my fails and fustrations on this issue as well..
2. Understand what you normally feel using cannabis(smoking) may NOT be anything like medibles do for you... Try to pinpoint what they are doing for you if anything ..better attitude.. hungry? couch locked? spacey?
3. Measure-time=pace everything!!! if you are guessing then your end results are gonna vary as well.. if you use 1g the first time wait 45 mins (I set my cell timer) then try 1.50 g then wait 90mins then 2 g wait 120mins
4.When you are testing yourself and the amount you need to get medicated start your testing on an empty stomach...
WHY?
I dunno.....
Here is my simple logic to it.. (a.) the onset or results of using medibles are increased aka less in tummy = faster breakdown of medibles =this means say at a later point you have eaten already and you know normally it takes you 3 grams to get medicated (on a empty tummy you can assume that 3 grams will still be safe on a full or partially full tummy. So my logic again was.. you know the results of a empty tummy and 3gs is ok I can increase it to perhaps 3.5-4g after I have had a large meal and when I am in more pain.. I know I am not going to get the feeling most folks want to feel by increasing my amount but I do get the feeling I want.
ok I am going to add to this or hell maybe not.. my "nite time" capsules kicked in.. I am pretty medicated now so I hope to GOD this makes sense to someone later on.. LOL
