While a significant portion of cannabis enthusiasts still favor inhalation, approximately 11 percent of the cannabis market is now taken up by edibles. However, an increasing number of individuals are opting for the edible route. Edibles offer a more lung-friendly alternative to smoking, with added discretion – they avoid the production of pungent secondhand smoke and can be consumed conveniently both indoors and outdoors. Additionally, edibles have the potential to provide a more prolonged high.
Nevertheless, this presents a challenge for both manufacturers and consumers alike. The potency, duration, and timing of the edible experience are not always reliably consistent. Their effects are notably variable.
Two edibles, each containing an identical quantity of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol, the primary psychoactive compound in cannabis), can elicit vastly different responses in a consumer. While one might yield mild effects, the other could hit intensely and endure for an extended period.
