eating bud doesnt get me high

[Stemis516]

ok so ive heard how some people out there just cant get high by smoking or eating but me i just cant get high when i eat it

i get blitzed easily when smoked

and b4 u say im not cooking it right lemme just say that my friends n i have made pans of brownies and we all eat them together usually...we put an ounce in the brownies and then cut them up into 8 even pieces so its assumed we are each eating an eigth per brownie....well everyone who ate one got high so i know we are making them correctly its just nothing happned to me

we have tried this multiple times and now i just dont bother putting in anymore cause its so disappointing

so any1 else experience this? perhaps do i just need to eat more than everyone else? i mean i have a pretty high tolerence but so do most of my friends

so i guess do i just try eating more and more at a time or stop eating it

[L Rag]

I get the same thing, I've tried about 4 or 5 times and nothings worked..

[vej33]

I'm slightly like that, but for me eating it works, but only to a point.

Iv made it a number of times, i've eaten stuff OTHER people have made, and i just never get higher than my normal rolling "food high". It's a pain in the ass, b/c i don't even know how much money i've spent realizing that I'm not getting the bang for my buck.

Now I'm not so quick to jump up and cook w/ it. I'll pay 5 bucks for a brownie if someone's made them, but I generally will just keep to smoking and vaping. (And Bonging soon!!)

L & Stem,
Eaither u 2 are the only mammals on the world who dont get blitzed eating weed or your not doin it right. All you have to do is ask and we will tell you how to make the butter and brownies. Something you guys have done is not Aak-Rite (propper). Its not hard but do not do one very important thing and it will not work, do a couple things wrong and it will not work as good or not work at all. In Amsterdam they dont care about smoking herb but a couple years ago their was talk on making eatables illigal cause all the tourist would eat like 5 space cakes and then 3 hours later be in the emergancy room, cause they thought they were over dosing on herb (wich is very impossible unless you can eat or smoke like at least 2 times your body wieght). Eating an ounce of herb is unheard of, even if its shwag, so I know you guys have done somthing wrong.

You obviously didn't read his post.
He said he ate a brownie that was from the same batch as others which his mates ate and got high.
Man what the fuck are you even talking about? wtf is Aak-rite???

[Pie_man]

Eating does jack all for me too.

I must have eaten weed 11-12 times and felt nothing 9 or 10 times. Of the very few times I did feel something it was a very mild buzz and if I would have smoked the amount I cooked, I would have been A LOT and I mean A LOT higher.

[vej33]

lol fuckin WORD PieMan

no I read it, and the def of aakrite is in () right behind it.... aakrite is acurate but not when you say it its Aakrite around here any way

again all you gotta do is ask, besides their is alot of good recipes in the cooking section

[L Rag]

Okay, you read it and don't understand English then.
And the definition of accurate is not 'propper'. Which is spelt proper by the way.
:rolleyes:

[Stemis516]

madsativa, please read my entire post before trying to seem intelligent

i stated that i ate a brownie from the same batch and 7 other people got pretty messed up...and most of the time were not smoking anything while were eating so i know its the brownies and that they are made properly....also i never said that i personally ate an ounce....it was clearly stated that the ounce was split up between 8 brownies


for those who have had similiar experiences (or lacktherof), how much were u eating and did u just try to eat more at a time until it got to a point where it was no longer economical

thats what i figure ill do....eat more and more at a time each session until i either get messed up or it doesnt make economic sense to eat so much for 1 session

[stinkyattic]

Make the butter FIRST according to an accepted extraction technique, and THEN make the brownies. There's a distinct possibility that your cooking technique is lacking, and that your friends might even be experiencing somewhat of a placebo effect.

It should not take a whole ounce to get 8 people high off brownies if you do it correctly. When I make truffles using correctly extracted cannabutter or cannacream, it only takes 0.2 GRAMS equivalent to get to a VERY noticeable high, and I'm a pretty heavy smoker.

Try dosing your brownies at 1 gram per person, so take the amount of butter the recipe calls for and dose it at a gram of bud per person, extract that amount into the amount of butter you will be using, and then cook with that.

If that doesn't work, I'm at a complete loss, lol!

And can we not bicker too much? Pretty please with chocolate on top?

[Shenanigans]

I've only attempted eating once, and it didn't work for me, but worked for my friends. But on the same note, it may have been done poorly, so I'll have to give it another try with some of the recipes here. I had just kind of accepted it as just not going to work.

[farmgirl]

taken me 5 years to figure out why i don't get high,,cause i get to stupid really i gap right out.so i think i wioll stick to smokin

[MadSativa]

Okay, you read it and don't understand English then.

:rolleyes:

Again I read it but I can also read between the lines, you have done somthing wrong, your friends were all the placibo and you were the control, and proper, legit, the deal real, etc. are all definitions of Aak-rite here. You will see more as you read through my posts, I dont spell in english or any laguage to well. This is from not using spellcheck, knowing to many languages, typing in the dark, and a general disrespect for the english laguage all togeather. but you get the general effect of what im trying to say. This is not a trem paper this is me talking in the real through type in about 9 seconds. oh and I gave no effect that I was a smartty, smart, smart but when it comes to herb I am a "expert in the ganja feild"(see the word feild has 2 meanings here both related but not the same, english is a funny language).

[Coelho]

Well... during my 2 very first attempts at using cannabis, i ate some truffle-like things (actually brigadeiros) with weed that my friends did make... i ate the same amount that them, and while they got HIGH i felt only slightly "different". Ok, i was a newbie to weed and maybe didnt recognize the effects of being high, but surely they got FAR higher than me.
I think being high is a thing our body "learns" to do... maybe its related with the body became used to metabolize the THC faster, or more efficiently... and i think it would be the same with eaten THC, cause the metabolization of it through the digestive system isnt the same of it when smoked... so, maybe you should try more times...
I would suggest everybody who didnt got high eating weed to try to make some green dragon. Its easier to get high from weed in liquid form than in solid form... and it takes less weed too... so you would know for sure if the problem is with the weed or with you.
Anyway, its very important to remember that eating weed is efficient with an empty stomach, and that eating weed with a full stomach mostly does NOT work... if it were the case, maybe thats why some of you didnt get high while your friends did.
Also, there is a recipe in the recipes section where Stinky talks about the uses of ginger, which may increase the absortion of THC by the body... so maybe you would try to eating some ginger before eating weed and see if it helps.
But, regardless anything, eating weed IS a bit of waste, cause you need (rougly) 5 times of the amount you would smoke to get the same level of "highness". Of course the duration of the high is far greater, but i dont know if it is worth... for me, who MUST live one entire year with 2oz, it is not... but if you have plenty of weed, why not?
So, i hope it has helped, good luck to all, and keep trying!
After the first sucessfull high (and i mean HIGHHHH) with eating (or drinking) weed, you will love it! :thumbsup::stoned::abduct::jointsmile:

[8182KSKUSH]

I used to work in a clinic, and I have tried every edible under the sun. Like you I just get a slight change, but nothing significant?
I have just given up on it, it sucks when I watch whoever eat half of a xxx hash brownie, and then I eat the a whole one and they are in space and I am ready to smoke a blunt. And these are people that otherwise smoke me under the table any day, I just can't get it from edibles. I wish I could!:mad:

[Algag]

Madsativa was just being helpful i dont see why he was getting bashed. Anyway your friends are good actors thats what happened. you probably did do what stinky said and not make the butter first

also i did not mean to bring back a thread from february ;c) i guess this forum is not too busy

[melodious fellow]

Stemis, listen to Coelho and make some very potent green dragon (erb desolved in high-proof drinking grade ethanol, then filtered)

Or, my favorite:

Make very potent fire crackers (grind up 2+ grams of dank, spread on 2 tablespoons natural peanut butter between 2 small cinnamon graham crackers and bake at 300F or so for 20 min, wrapped in aluminum foil)

The most simplistic recipes are the best when testing if you really are an anomaly.

Eat/drink on an empty stomach, this is a must!

peace :rasta:

[tuscani]

the people who dont feel the effects lack an enzyme in their livers or have lower concentrations of it naturally, therefore the molecules cannot be converted into super-thc that gets u fucked up

i trip balls when i eat or drink it, i like it...i like it very much, i feel bad for you people.

woot, post 187

[Igotsoul4u]

I feel bad for all of you that don't get to experience the full on brownie effect!!! wow. Anyway. I have had a couple experiences where nothing happened also. I believe there are several reasons for this. 1. Your stomach should be empty for full effect. 2. A slightly tilted tray can cause oil to seep from one side to another. 3. You didn't let the bud simmer for to long or not long enough. I am curious if there is a scienetific reason why it doesn't work for people.

[wazup7]

I think every post in this thread is missing one important factor, so I'd like to share a story that will clear the issue up:

Here's what I think...someone who isn't me once had a lot of plants and decided to make edibles, since she knew the buds would be a good quality. She made a batch of cookies with 1g in each cookie. She routinely smokes large amounts every day, so she started off with two cookies (2 grams). After 2 hours, she was feeling a little bit, but was slightly dissatisfied, so she ate 2 more. After she ate them, she felt nothing for the rest of the day, and her mild buzz went away quickly after she ate them. She tried this again a few days later, this time eating 4 cookies to begin with, and again she felt nothing.

She decided to give it one more try, this time with a bowl of schwag to help move it along. Except this time, she titrated her dosage. She took 5 cookies, and had one small bite every 5-10 minutes, for as long as it takes, or until the 5 cookies were done. After an hour and a half, she was 1 and a third cookies in, and she decided to hit her bowl. After smoking, she was very intoxicated and realized how hard it hit her.

The point of the story is that her mindset has a large impact on the experience. First, she thinks she ate too much the first few times so that her high quickly turned to anxiety, which in return quickly ended her high. Next, the third time she ate them, she was relaxed, ready, and intent on feeling high from the cookies. And finally, if you tell yourself that you're not high, then you won't get high. Instead, focus on other things--the people around you or your environment--and when the edibles start to kick in, you won't need to question it, because it will distract you from whatever else your mind was doing at the moment. It happens so slowly that if you focus on it and wait for it to happen, you'll be disappointed.

[m577a2]

I've eaten great amounts of brownies and cokies and haven't felt it. My friends make a batch of cookies and 1/4 cookie gets them so high they can't walk to the store. I eat a whole cookie, nothing, smoke a bowl and I feel like I smoked a bowl. No matter how it is done it don't work for me. I am intrigued about spacing out the intake though, good call!

Haha, Im sure if I did that I would throw up indefinetly. Too much weed makes me throw up. I've thrown up from crackers twice and vaping once. You must have super tolerance broo:hippy:

[EciRonTog]

I've also had less than stellar experiences with edibles. Gotten lots of different stuff from the club from cookies to brownies to biscotti to pills.

The most effective of them all were the hash pills, but even then I only noticed the effect by taking them in the morning and not smoking at all that day. It hit me slowly as a very mellow stone and probably made me tired more than anything else.

Plenty of he times I ate the other stuff I was also smoking fat bong tokes. I just think smoking good weed masks the effect of whatever you eat.

[KyleIsNorml]

Could it be that you have a high tolerance of THC so when you consume the marijuana in any shape or form by eating it that the acids in your stomach break it down to the point that there is nothing at all for your body to get a high from? Stomach acids are pretty heavy in the work that it has to do.

I could be wrong but that is the only thing I can think of, it seems the most logical explanation to it. Maybe you need to put more marijuana in what ever it is that you are cooking it with? Or you just need to get really dank bud, possibly do both! :thumbsup:

But I could be very wrong

Well... it makes sense, but i think its not the reason, because the THC isnt water-soluble, but only fat-soluble, and the fats arent digested in the stomach, but after it. So i think it passes unharmed by the stomach.

But im not a doctor (nor anything remotely related), so i can be wrong too.

Yes we can both be very wrong but at the same time I can't argue with your words. I feel as if both of our theories could be correct, or at least one of the two! :thumbsup: I'm sure I could just google it but I'm not in the mood to read anything in such depth right now haha :jointsmile:

[hazedandinfused]

your not doing it right

like some have said you can make brownies for 8 people from around a quarter of good weed

either you guys are trying to make brownies out of beasters
or
your not making the brownies right

it takes around 2 hours to get high after you eat weed stuff but you get really, really high

[8182KSKUSH]

Man I am telling you, milk and marijuana. The only way that I have been able to ingest it and feel the effects, and baby, you will go to the moon. There is a thread here, many many folks post that they are gonna try it, then they are never heard from again. It's also the easiest fastest way that I have made any edible thc product. Check it out follow the directions, it's so easy and sooo efucktive!

[ballsout]

umm i like weed!.....a lot!....

[colosun]

I have never gotten high off of eating weed. Don't tell me it wasn't made right or anything else like that, I have eaten a whole space cake in amsterdam on more than one occasion, and nothing. Yes different coffee shops different times of the day. One of the owners wouldn't let me have more than one piece in an hour because it was so powerful. I ended up eating the whole thing in front of him, in about 3 hours he was very surprised. The cake was really good and he didn't have any other snacks. I have eaten it in every form and nothing has ever happened. I have a really high metabolism I think that has something to do with it. I wish I could get off on it and I still try in hopes one day I find a combination that works for me. Thats my two cents worth.

[dankman318]

So I've been following this thread due to my experience with edibles and not getting high. I made a batch of brownies with cannaoil using a 1/4 of headies and I sliced the brownies into 9 pieces. Now I started off by eating the biggest 1/9 piece. I waited two hours felt nothing so i decided to eat my other two. Now ingesting 1/3 of the entire brownies, I get a little tired and hate waiting so i smoke some weed and find that weird threshold dose feeling everyone here seems to get.

I then called my two friends over to smoke some bowls as i was very dissapointed in the turn out of my brownies. I then was thinking i must of made them wrong and wasted the whole quarter. I offered each one of my friends 1 piece to taste the yummyness. So they both ingested 1/9 of the batch and i told them they were duds and they won't get them high. After about 35 min they went into the other room and just layed down. Both of them told me they have never been so uncomfortably high.

KSKUSH is now banned, but he was saying earlier in this thread he worked at a clinic and never could get high from anything edible. For him to come back and say the text quoted above, must mean there is a possibility for this thread going somewhere further :pimp:


Something interesting that i was thinking about was the Milk. When i was a child i had minor/moderate allergic reactions to milk. So i wasn't really breast fed or raised drinking milk. Later on heavy milk products give me minor lactose intolerance. So maybe i have an enzyme deficiency such as lactose intolerance that is causing me not to absorb the thc effectively?

Has anyone else had success with drinking milk along with take their edibles?
:smokin:

[naturesmeds]

Coelho & hazedandinfused are correct.
A. You must have an empty stomach!
B. You're not eating enough.
C. You must use alcohol or a form of oil, to extract (yes, butter, or dragon)

It would not surprise me, ANYTHING your friends might do or say, just like all the people here, as there is a vast amount of disinformation.
I've seen MANY people swear they were high 5 minutes after eating, but it takes a long time, so EAT AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE!
Many people & dispensaries sell edibles that don't have enough to get a fly high, & sell a lot of them with few complaints.
If 34 out of 34 people who ate the same brownie, all claimed to be high within 5-10 minutes of eating them, its no surprise to me, as I know better.

Nobody has ever eaten too much & died, so I doubt you're going to be first.
You'll just go to sleep. (for a very long time & then wake up stoned)

There's lots of people smoking, but few are getting high.
Nobody ever told me there would be days like these.

[naturesmeds]

Eating pot makes no sense unless you have plenty, AND you want more effect than smoking, ANY amount.
You can go places that you just can't get to by smoking.
If you're buying your pot, just be prepared to go broke, just to find out what I'm talking about.

Compared to the founders of this nation, you're all a bunch of light weights.

[Ayyxbleezy]

Make it out of that kronic :rasta::rastasmoke:

[MedMike]

There is a method to the madness... Yes technique in extraction and all that but THC doesn't automatically just work though would seem to be the case. As some Cannaposters hit on. There are processing issues depending on how your body receives the raw material etc.

Get past all of that and whether you have hash cookies or double boiler brownies, you should be getting stoned. I'm talkin muscle relaxer, holy shit I'm!! What was I saying? stoned...

So why is this not occuring?

Your brain has receptors specifically for THC. Its the only element known to us so far that has these properties. That doesn't mean your body can process and transfer the matter into that receptor path.

Enough science MedMike, get to the fun stuff!

It so simple you're gonna laugh! You need a carrier. There needs to be something that can allow the body to separate and deliver your medicine.

Milk, half and half and cream have milk fat. Which contains lipids and philo lipids that allow the body to get the dose carried/delivered.

Next time, try eating a small amount of edibles. Immediately drink a small amount of milk etc. Continue by ingesting more small doses and including milk products. Be patient, don't over do either the milk fat or the edible.

Munch On!

MedMike:D

[CovertCarpenter]

...should be a more 'natural' form of THC delivery, yes, but I have heard that your stomach acids can do a number on it (unless it's suspended/dissolved in an alco/fat base), so you need approximately three times 'normal' dosage to get the same effect from eating.

I have Chronicus Maximus tolerance, and prefer to smoke it, but am looking forward to the time (SOON!) when I have /enough/ to eat, and can stop smoking (which has various minor health penalties that eating doesn't).

TRUE STORY--one of the highest times I've ever been in my life... (and from 'eating', too!)

Went to Britain a few years ago, to see younger brother's wedding. Weed is hard to score in UK, hash less hard, so I wound up scoring an O of decent hash for 45 quid (around $115Cdn at the time!).

Now, there was no way that we could smoke it all before leaving, and I was not taking any on the plane back home, so, after giving much of it away, and smoking as much as we could, the wife and I still had around 10g left.

We took two pieces of bread, buttered them, and then spread the hash on the bread like Marmite, folded 'em in half, and ate 'em on the train on the way to Heathrow... (or was it Gatwick... hmm)

Wifey couldn't get thru all of hers, so I ate it too. I estimate that she had 3-3.5 g, and I had 6.5-7g of some of the nicest hash I'd had in a while, tho kinda nasty to just wolf down. Waiting for the plane, I kept wondering when the firkin' hash was going to 'kick in'... or if my stomach just thrashed it.

We passed thru the security gates, were waiting in the 'final' departure lounge (you know, the one just before the tube you walk thru to get on the actual bird...), and I was just leaning up against the wall, watiting.

And then I felt the whole departure lounge move up, and down, like 3 ft, as if we were on a pier somewhere... My first thought was "wow... they built the departure thingy on a pier..." followed by "hang on... that's insane.... OH, I guess the Hash is kicking in now!"...

For the next half-hour, all I could feel was the "WHOOOMPH", as the departure lounge kept washing up and down with the non-existant waves. Somehow I got on the plane. I remember wrapping myself up in one of their shitty blankets, then nothing... then touching down in Canada like 15 seconds later....

Remember--this effect took like 6-7g of hash, eaten with butter on a nearly empty stomach...

Easiest flight I've never had ;)

(c)C :chainsaw:

[Hijynx]

Haha, Im sure if I did that I would throw up indefinetly. Too much weed makes me throw up. I've thrown up from crackers twice and vaping once. You must have super tolerance broo:hippy:

I also do not seem to have very little effect from edibles.
I gave the firecrackers a shot a couple times to no to little effect.
last time i made 2 with about .75g finely ground mids.
wated three hours before I said screw this and hit the vape.
I was really hoping this would work because i heard it was more a heavy body effect and that whats I prefer to cope with pain. I have also spent quite a bit on variet of edibles from the dispensaries to little effect if any.

[Ceres420]

The problem with people not getting high off edibles is not because they're not as potent as smoking, it's because you're all eating the wrong stuff that was made the wrong way...

I know a girl in the Los Angeles valley area who makes the most potent edibles that I have ever had. And anyone who has tried them would say the same exact thing. It's all in the process. She sells her product for about $5 each (gourmet cookies, brownies, cakes, lollipops) direct, or you can buy it at a dispensary..... and the potency of them is out of this world. People actually think that she puts magic mushrooms in her edibles. They're that strong. You have one cookie or half a brownie (the brownie is made with VERY potent pot butter that she makes a special way, and it's topped with icing that has an extra dosage of THC).... and it you WILL hallucinate.

Saying you can't get high from edibles just because of a couple of bad batches that you've tasted or that you and your friends have made is almost the same as saying you can't get high off weed because all you've tried is some crappy old shake.

[huredk]

Hi,

Nice to see the important views about theeating bud doesnt get me high which is good to see here as I am newbie I hope that you will give more that type of views in future all the best in future

[boopboop]

i eat edibles from time to time. My boop always smells like weed the next day

[jetsfool]

I recently got a medical card for job related injury pain and went to a dispensary. As part of their "welcome to the collective" procedure, I got the choice of a free gram with my first purchase of edibles. As I have not smoked in 15 years (and didn't much enjoy it back then) I opted for a pre rolled joint and a tiny bag of sandy colored kief in place of the gram. I asked the budtender if it was possible to get any effect from eating the kief/pollen. She admitted she didn't know.
At home, around 4:30p, (i put the joint and edibles in the freezer), I was curious about the oral effects of such a small back of pollen. It was like a pinch of sand. So I emptied the bag on my tongue, washed it down with two glasses of water and some feta cheese and went about my day. Started feeling it in my cheekbones (@6pm) and was amused. Got loose as a goose and was enjoying a book outside (@7-8pm). My eyes felt fuzzy, I was warm all over and my skin took on the quality of a guitar string being thrummed gently. I finally understood why people got stoned (@10pm) and realized that eating was a strong creeper of an experience that i would probably not do again (@11pm). I couldn't go to sleep and engaged myself in baking 3 pies and re organizing the kitchen. I was more awake than i had ever been and fascinated by the energy i felt.

Despite this alertness, I wanted to crash so badly and just sleep but my body and the kief in my intestines wouldn't let me. I finished the pies, slept for 3 hours and woke up to go to work. I was cursing my decision to eat instead of smoking since i was still feeling the effects during the bus ride in.

I performed my duties super carefully, looked everyone in the eyes and had a stellar day. Kept checking my pupils in the bathroom mirror throughout the shift. 8 hours into my work day, I think that i fell off the plateau but the come down was long, tricky and slow. I would think that i was sober and then a sudden movement would send me back into an echo of a body high or produce the munchies in me. I did a workout tonight to banish some of the tingling effects I am still feeling. I want to excrete this substance so badly

I don't feel completely normal today (the ingestion took place on a tuesday evening and it is thursday night as i type this)

..WARNING to newbies and light weights like me
when eating pollen/hash - TREAD CAREFULLY

[ky1956]

Sorry it was an unwanted experience for you. Your description of eating raw cannabis was very familiar and as an old pothead from the 70s I have really come to enjoy the experience. However I am only eating raw weed and not kief specifically.

You might check out some firecracker recipes for less intense edibles. they can be made with as much or as little weed as desired.

Good luck with your back pain.

The only time I've eaten I didn't get high. At some cookies(Which were probably the best tasting cookies I've ever had).

However, I smoked a shit ton of hash before that. Does already being high effect it?

[SmokeNRun]

So I've been following this thread due to my experience with edibles and not getting high. I made a batch of brownies with cannaoil using a 1/4 of headies and I sliced the brownies into 9 pieces. Now I started off by eating the biggest 1/9 piece. I waited two hours felt nothing so i decided to eat my other two. Now ingesting 1/3 of the entire brownies, I get a little tired and hate waiting so i smoke some weed and find that weird threshold dose feeling everyone here seems to get.

I then called my two friends over to smoke some bowls as i was very dissapointed in the turn out of my brownies. I then was thinking i must of made them wrong and wasted the whole quarter. I offered each one of my friends 1 piece to taste the yummyness. So they both ingested 1/9 of the batch and i told them they were duds and they won't get them high. After about 35 min they went into the other room and just layed down. Both of them told me they have never been so uncomfortably high.



:
This is the same for me. I always hear about people getting so high its too much off of edibles. But, I just can't seem to get like that. Maybe its my tolerance level or something? I mean I always cook with my ABV weed and I mix about 7 grams of that with a pint of whole milk. The last time I did it I wanted to see if I could get that uncontrollable crazy high that everyone always talks about. So I loaded about 7 or 8 grams of the ABV weed and then about a 16th of some really good dank and still nothing. I mean don't get me wrong I felt high but it was just a little bit of a body buzz, it definately wasn't a uncontrollable crazy high though? Maybe I'm just different, but next time we are going to try and cook it in some butter because it will be fattier. But I mean I should have been crazy high off of almost a full 8th of weed for just me in one sitting.

madsativa, please read my entire post before trying to seem intelligent

i stated that i ate a brownie from the same batch and 7 other people got pretty messed up...and most of the time were not smoking anything while were eating so i know its the brownies and that they are made properly....also i never said that i personally ate an ounce....it was clearly stated that the ounce was split up between 8 brownies


for those who have had similiar experiences (or lacktherof), how much were u eating and did u just try to eat more at a time until it got to a point where it was no longer economical

thats what i figure ill do....eat more and more at a time each session until i either get messed up or it doesnt make economic sense to eat so much for 1 session

I would venture to say that you failed majorly on making the butter/oil. If those people ate an eigth of weed coooked properly they would be bugging out mad bad if they werent experienced pot eaters. Im a big guy and a gram cooked properly gets me nice and high plus i smoke a lot. 3 and a half grams i would be bugging majorly. So even though they got high you still failed making the brownies. i would say you have a higher tolerance than them so you just didnt feel it.

...I wonder if any of you who have a problem getting high off edibles have a problem digesting fats in general. I'm working with someone right now who has this problem.

Are you more or less thin? Do you have digestive problems of any kind after eating a fatty meal? These may be indicators.

[Xyz505]

eat and smoke u cant go wrong

[yenomz]

Sounds odd but if you're doing it right it should work. I get these cookies made with hash or kief depending, and they mess me up. Have me more high than ever for like a solid 6-9 hours. I love edibles <3

[Purple Daddy]

I ate about an 8th last night maybe less and had me fucked up all night, this morning and this afternoon. Just chewed it up and washed it down with a lot of orange soda. I woke up at 6 am, went back to sleep around 9, woke up about noon, went and got some lunch and went back down for a few more hours. Drank about 5 cups of coffee today and never shook it off.

[Graywolf]

Hi ya'll!

I take about 300 mg of cannabis oil three times daily for pain and haven't had a euphoric high in several years. As your tolerance builds, the euphoric high goes away.

Sad but true!

Ohmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!1

[tweety1162]

I dont' get high from eating bud either.. Is anybody else out there who can't get high, do you have your gallbladder still?? I had my gallbladder out and so i'm wondering if that's y it wouldn't work for me?? I know they were cooked great because lots of other ppl have gotten high from these cookies... any help would be great. thanks!

[nascarmike]

I've had mixed results. Eating raw bud did nothing but I've infused milk, had it in other edibles and had very pleasant results.

[stonersam]

dont know much but i do read a lot. problem could be bioavailability. i have a very rough digestive system and edibles barely hit me, well the ones i buy from the dispenseries that is. the decarboxilation process could be done wrong. but if not you could try drinking a cup of mango juice or grapefruit juice.

not sure about grapefruit juice but from what ive read it sounds like it could work because naturally our body cant digest thc but not sure so maybe someone can help me with this one

grape fruit juice; Grapefruit and grapefruit juice have the potential to interact with numerous drugs.[1] Organic compounds, which are furanocoumarin derivatives, interfere with the hepatic and intestinal enzyme cytochrome P450 isoform CYP3A4 and are believed to be primarily responsible for the effects of grapefruit on the enzyme. Bioactive compounds in grapefruit juice may also interfere with P-glycoprotein and organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs), either increasing or decreasing the bioavailability of a number of drugs. Pomelo (the Asian fruit which was crossed with an orange to produce grapefruit) also contains high amounts of furanocoumarin derivatives. Some grapefruit-pomelo hybrids have practically no furanocoumarin content, and one is a commercially viable seedless type

and mangos because


Mangos Increase, Strengthen, And Even Lengthen The Euphoric Feelings Felt After Smoking Marijuana

By Big Buddha from the weedblog.com

Summary: The chemical compounds that have been found within mangos have been discovered by science to be able to increase, strengthen, and even lengthen the euphoric feelings felt after smoking marijuana. This is great news for the marijuana community for both recreational smokers and medicinal smokers as they both now have a healthy alternative snack to turn towards during their munchies.

Lately it seems that both the science community and the marijuana community have been falling into the same category. This is great news for both medical marijuana patients and recreational marijuana smokers alike! Of course itâ??s common knowledge that medical marijuana does exist and that it is a great natural remedy for aches, pains, and various ailments. And of course recreational marijuana smokers do enjoy the euphoric feelings of the herbal supplement as opposed to the feelings of intoxication caused by alcohol or liquor. So naturally marijuana is a safe alternative to most sinful pleasures as well it is a perfect organic solution to the stresses and pains of life. So here is a little secret that the science community has recently discovered for the marijuana community: Eating fresh mangos or even drinking a fresh mango smoothie one hour prior to smoking will dramatically increase the euphoric feelings felt by marijuana and help medical marijuana patients to ease their pain even more so.

This is because a chemical compound known as myrcene terpenes, which is most often used for fragrances, can be found within cannabis and marijuana as well as many other various plants such as lemon grass, hops, and of course mangos. This is why these types of plants of such rare and unique types of odors and aromas. Once ingested the chemical compound, or myrcene terpenes, assists the psychoactive substance THC by allowing it to pass through the Blood Brain Barrier (BBB) at much faster speeds with much more efficiency. The time it takes for the THC to have an effect on the brain after inhalation is roughly seven seconds however, by eating a mango up to one hour prior to smoking the time it takes for THC to reach the brain and have an effect could be cut in half. As well as the length of the high and its time duration could be up to twice as long.

Individuals who have eaten a mango, digested it, and then smoked have also noted that the euphoric feelings felt by marijuana are alarmingly much more intense. This is perfect for medical marijuana patients who would like an increased amount of pain relief or for recreational marijuana smokers who just want to get even higher than before. It is important to also note the different speeds in metabolism for those who are attempting to try this experiment. This is because individuals who have faster metabolisms may need to ingest a bit more than those who do not have as fast of a metabolism as well as individuals with slower metabolisms may need to ingest a mango or mango smoothie up to an hour and a half prior to smoking. This will help ensure that the myrcene terpenes found within mangos have been properly digested and will have an effect.

What else is great about this interesting scientific fact is eating mangos is another great way for the human body to receive additional amounts of vitamins and nutrition and it helps individuals avoid eating foods that are high in cholesterol or trans fats. Eating too many fatty foods when the â??munchiesâ?? occur can be harmful and even detrimental to an individualâ??s health. So be sure to stay healthy and to eat healthy whether smoking marijuana recreationally or medicinally.

dude I agree

Ive eaten weed raw a few times no affect.

Ive tried butter about 3 times and have made stuff that does nothing

I dont smoke, I get WELL stoned every weekend with a simple reciepie here that involces a muffin mix you can buy from Asda - If you want me to post I will! just ask here

[stonersam]

can you post recipe

[firstaid]

I learned its because the digestive tract has difficulty breaking down the vegatative part of the medicine so most is the absorption. Dont waste it or if you do really chew it up well but Ive notice the edibles use cannabutter etc or extract. Im a novice so forgive my idiocy.......

[Stemis516]

so i just had to post here. i apologize for bumping an old thread but theres a story to go with it...

i havent been on these forums since around when i originally made this thread, circa 2008. dunno why i left, it was never a conscious decision. anyways 5 years later im STILL trying to figure out why edibles dont get me high. i did a google search and clicked on the first result and voila it jsut happens to be a thread that i made years ago and forgot about.

so i still cant get high off eating but i do have a bit more info to share

moost of the initial answers to this thread simply dismissed everything i was saying and just kpet repeating that people eating with me were having a placebo and we were always cooking wrong. well thats not true so maybe thats why i just let the thread fade away. since making this thread i have tried to injest weed about 8-10 more times. different forms, different cooks etc. once i made it out to cali i tried stuff from the medical shops and i still never got high. i ate upwards of a quarter oz of pot all in various items from a medical shop and never felt a thing. this fact alone should put to rest the idea that we were cooking improperly and it was placebo.

but it gets weirder. i decided to make some green dragon with everclear and sure enough it worked like an absolute charm. highest ive ever been. went back to edibles and got nothing. so is there a difference in the product if it is cooked into fat vs alcohol? it certainly appears that there is.

the guy who said something about enzymes in the liver is the kind of information i am looking for but no one really expanded on it or confirmed it. can any1 now confirm this?

obviously im no longer gonna eat anymore an just make green dragon instead but i am still curious as hell about all of this because the high i get from green dragon is most preferable to anytime ive ever smoked it. thanks.

[Hotshot123]

No I don't believe that. If you have some really high grade you will get stone. I just ate a 1/4 Gram of some white widow, and you just have to wait, for the stone. Mine didn't come on until 4 hours after I injested it. Man what a stone, it was much better than smoking it. 4 1/2 hours of head and body stone and then off to bed at 6:30 and up at 2 the next morning. I don't believe I will ever smoke again. I even forget about my broke arm, until about mid morning sometime way after daylight.

[SamLyle]

May be Stemis really has a different digestive system compared to most people. The chemical reaction could be is just not the same with him compared to us.
I have a friend who could not breathe after drinking a bottle of beer and also another friend that takes 24 bottles before he gets a little drunk. May be it is similar to how his body reacts to marijuana edibles.
