Here in Oregon, we have what we call “Try 5”, a campaign that encourages marijuana users to just 5mg of THC when trying a marijuana infused edible for the first time or a newer cannabis user. Here at Attis, we encourage all consumers to start with just 5 milligrams of THC and once you’re ready move up from there after waiting a couple of hours for the effects to kick in. For better or worse, because of the way marijuana is metabolized, ingesting marijuana usually supplies a much stronger and longerlasting effect. As a side note, when marijuana is inhaled the effects are almost immediate and peak within 1015 minutes, while ingesting marijuana can take up to two hours to take effect and will peak for a couple of hours after that.
