What are edibles

Cannabis edibles are food and beverage products that have been infused with cannabis, such as candy, baked goods, or dissolvable strips, to name a few.

These products often contain two of the plant’s abundant cannabinoids -- chemicals unique to the cannabis plant that are responsible for producing its effects. Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is an intoxicating cannabinoid, while cannabidiol (CBD) is a non-intoxicating cannabinoid. Since everyone’s physiology is different, the way in which you may experience the effects of edibles can vary.

How to safely consume cannabis edibles

For safe consumption of your edible cannabis, start low and go slow. Here’s what we recommend:

• Begin with a small dose
• Wait at least four hours before consuming more.
• Don’t drive or operate heavy machinery after consuming cannabis.
• Avoid consuming your edible cannabis with alcohol or other substances.
• Store in a child-safe container to keep out of reach from pets and minors.
• Consume your edible cannabis in a safe environment.

How long do effects take to kick in?

You may start to feel the effects of your edible product 30 to 90 minutes after consuming, although in some cases it may take up to 4 hours. Consuming more cannabis before the effects have taken place may result in adverse reactions.

How long do effects last for?

Edibles can produce effects for up to 12 hours, and in some cases last up to 24 hours [*].
