How much should you take? A typical edible dose is 5 to 10 mg of THC. If you are new to edibles, start at 2.5 mg, wait a full 2 hours for the effects to appear, and only then decide whether to take more. Edibles peak around 2 to 4 hours and can last 8 hours or longer.
Getting the right dose with edibles is key to enjoying cannabis safely and comfortably. Unlike smoking or vaping, edibles take their time , often 30 minutes to 2 hours , before the effects kick in. And once they do, they tend to hit harder and stick around longer. That’s why finding your personal sweet spot matters. The right edible dosage can mean the difference between a mellow evening and an overwhelming experience.
