Cannabis edibles are products that you are meant to eat or drink that contain Cannabinoids. These products can have THC, CBD, or a mixture of the two within them. Be careful and always check your product’s packaging for dosage amounts and the type of cannabinoids used.

Edible cannabis products can come in nearly any form from gummy candies and chocolate bars to baked goods such as brownies. You can also purchase cannabis tea bags and tincture drops.

Weed edibles can have a longer lasting effect than inhaling cannabis, and can have a more powerful effect depending on your body type and tolerance level.

If you are new to consuming cannabis and cannabis edibles, start low and take it slow.  

Cannabis edibles effects can last up to 12 hours with residual effects lasting up to 24 hours after. Do not drive or operate machinery after taking cannabis edibles as the effects can last well into the next day.

Cannabis edibles that contain the psychoactive ingredient, THC, will have similar effects to that of inhaling cannabis.

CBD cannabis edibles do not contain any THC (or at least a very minimal amount) and are used to help regulate pain, sleep, and other medical conditions.

Based off this information, you can make an educated decision on the type of edibles you want.

Always make sure to double-check your edible’s packaging!

While there is a distinct difference between most Indica and Sativa strains when inhaled, the effects become much more blended with edibles.

That being said, the effects of an edible depend on the strain used as well as the genetic makeup of each individual that consumes them.

While a Sativa edible may be labelled as one, these edibles can still have the same effects as an Indica strain, so be mindful of this when consuming!
