Has anyone NEVER gotten high off edible pot treats?

[theforthdrive]

i make some amazingly strong foods from time to time put everyone that has tried them on their ass....except one friend. for some reason everyone in the room will be drooling on themselves and my one friend cant get high on ingestion. youre not alone! but that really sucks.... I dont think i could even handle getting on a plane without something to eat!

Hrm this is an interesting post and makes me feel a bit better. I've made 2 batches of brownies, 1 of which turned out pristine (excepting PERHAPS a heat issue i.e. overheating the butter+water+herb mixture), the other one was a bit messed up due to excessive oil used to grease pan (now use butter). In neither case did I feel anything excepting minutes after ingestion, which I attributed to placebo. On both occasions the butter and brownies smelled and tasted strongly as they should have and pretty much all indicators were there except for the primary effects. No one around that's down so I couldn't offer the brownies to others to isolate myself out of the equation.

Noteworthy item: I too have been an avid user of adderall, probably in 3 sessions, the last being the most intense but still falling within prolly 1-2k mg over about 6 months at the most. I haven't used adderall in over a year so I'd hope that has nothing to do with things but you never know.

I'm going to make a final batch of brownies with a crock pot to ensure that I'm not overheating and thus destroying the THC molecules. Afterwards (if they don't work for me again) I'll give them to a few friends and see what they think.

During the cooking process I did anywhere between 6-8 hours on the first attempt and 5 hours or so for the second round of butter made recently (went into the perfect brownies). I did see visible steam pretty much throughout the cooking process but the lid was covered and there was NO water movement except after about 45 minutes or so while I was stirring every hour. I cooked the brownies each time at 375 as directed on the box. The last occasion was a recipe I got offline (absolutely delicious brownies btw) that call for something like 2 1/2 cups sugar. Someone mentioned excess sugar interfering but I can't think that's right, if so how would brownies be an option? Other than that no special factors worth mentioning. All that sound right to you guys?

I've had very similar experiences with edibles. The first time I EVER tried eating something, I bought it off a kid who had just eaten one and his eyes were red and tearing he was so stoned. But I ate it with 2 friends, and didn't feel annnyything.

Similar experience after buying an edible muffin. Nothin.

Made Macaroni & Cheese w/ potbutter, an 8th, THAT experience had me passing out on a city sidewalk, but purely out of dehydration.

Made Ramen Noodles w/ pot butter (i forget how exactly) and that was an okay time, nothing special, even though i had an 8th to myself.

Made brownies with friends, used an 8th for the four of us, and felt the same height of high as if I'd consumed a whole 8th myself.

Had pot brownie @ party once, and it pretty much just set the baseline high, like we smoked and drank beyond that (as usual).

It just sucks because, it's not like I'm immune to it, I just can't seem to surpass a certain threshold. And at the beginning of all my edible journeys, I'm always reading up on how people ingested too much and tripped balls, and THAT has always been a goal of mine, to somehow "trip" off eating it...

It makes me a little nervous to ever try to make Green Dragon, for fear that it'd just be a huge waste. Though I probably will end up making it someday, anyway.

I also take prescribed ritalin to treat my ADHD. I am in college so I need my medicine to help me stay focused and I have noticed that taking my Ritalin greatly reduces the high I feel after smoking pot. In fact I can't get high if I have taken my Ritalin instead I am just really stoned. Being stoned and being high are two different things to me. Regardless my suggestion is that in order to get high from weed u need to not take ur ADD medication for the day or wait until after your medicine has worn off in the evening or after dinner...then toke

I've only ingested like twice.

Besides when I thought it was cool to chew on stems, which just sound stupid now.

But the first time I was with a bunch of people who made weed salsa. Idk what that was about, but I didn't feel SHIT. not that I really cared b.c it wasn't like it was my weed in the salsa. I just got free chips and dip.

The second time was at a good friend's house and me and him made a batch of brownies. We had like a 12 small ones, so he ate a little more than a half dozen and I ate the rest. After about 30 min. we both got this real doped out look on our face, and starting having really weird sensations, almost like when you get spiderwebs when you're tripping. Then the tiredness hit us, and we both slept for about 7 hours on the floor. haha.

It was alright, but I think that weed would have been better spent smoking then for our strange little nap time.

I have heard too many stories of people who can't get high from edibles not to believe that there are people who just don't.

I made firecrackers for a concert recently and followed the directions perfectly AND used fantastic weed AND ate 4 of them at once and felt:

NOTHING! Not a damn thing, and it was ridiculous. I'm still pissed about that shit.

[IrieIrie]

i've made firecrackers with the best weed i've ever smoked and was absolutely gone and then i made them with some low mids and barely felt anything. so if you're gonna make edibles, use the danky stanky.

First time I had brownies we messed up with the oil. We put the weed in wehn it was way too hot. We used a quarter of this shit called Fruity Pebbles (fucking amazing to smoke) anyway we used a coffee grinder and to get a somewhat powdery form and we ended up stinking the entire house up cause he added it when it was way to hot. Everything else went smoothly i had like 2 of them cause they were oh so tasty. Didn't feel anything so I decided to drive home. As i was pulling into my neighborhood a sudden rush came over me and i was high as hell. I got home and supposedly talked to my mom for aout an hour then went to my den and passed out while watching a movie.

I got 15 hours or so of sleep and was still a bit high when i woke up. Edibles are the best. I'm sorry that your not able to enjoy them, I would try what oliver said as it may certainly be having an affect of you getting all the THC.
