Are all edibles super potent?

Idk about anyone else but I love love love the marijuana flavor in edibles. I'd like to be able to eat 2 brownies and be perfectly high. This whole eat a quarter of the brownie and wait an hour thing takes away from the overall experience of edibles for me. Am I the only one? And if I'm not then why haven't I found any edibles out there of the not super potent nature?

just make your own that are not potent, simple!

No. If you really want to have control over how potent your edibles are, then visit /r/treedibles.

i made a pretty potent firecracker using 2tsp heaped mixed AVB when i used to indulge. 1/3 of it had me heavily stoned for the better part of a day. i wrapped the rest up and stored it in the pantry. we had a mouse in the house that winter, it had gotten into and ate the entire thing. i wonder how it reacted

for me i treat edibles like psychedelics - long smooth comeup to the peak FUCKING BLAZED. try vaping if you love the flavor, hold it in then eat an oreo or some shit

edibles are INSANELY easy to make from hash oil. minimal smell too. and you can tailor your dosage.

1) put concentrate on parchment, decarb the concentrate @ 220-240 for like 30-60 minutes. basically you just want to see bubble stop forming on the little slab. let it cool.

2) throw that bitch in the freezer. it'll be super sticky once it heats up, so better off keeping it cold when you handle it.

3) melt some butter on low heat in a pot. the great part about usng hash oil instead of trim/bud/shake is you don't have to simmer for anywehre near as long to maximinze potency.

4) add bits of concentrate to butter, stirring as you drop them in. continue stirring. I generally let it simmer for at least an hour or so on low heat. might not be totally necessary, but doesn't hurt. very low heat though. don't wanna end up with ghee, don't wanna burn it either.

anyway, to determine dosage:

how dank's your hash oil? realistically, it's probably 40-70% cannabinoids. look up lab test results from medical states, and try to match your sample to one of their based on appearance. not perfect, but best you can really do.

standard dispensary edibles have 10mg THC. anyway, say you have some reasonably good concentrate (imagine an amber/brown shatter, decent clarity). probably something around 50% cannabinoids. say the box of cookies you're gonna make makes 24.

shatter = 50%, want 24 cookies, 10mg per edible

24 x 10 = 240mg total

240mg / 0.50 = 480mg. so you'll want to use about a half gram of conentrate. I recommend shooting for 10mg per edible (least on the first go round), cause its easier to 2 cookies than half a cookie. I made a batch with ~22mg per cookie lately, and thecookies are tiny as fuck. Ive been giving them away, and due to cookies size, everyone eats the whole thing. a lot of them practically comatose 2 hours later. 22mg over the course of a whole day is totally manegable though.
