Edibles are an easy, discreet way to enjoy cannabis, making them perfect for beginners and experts alike. However, there are many misconceptions about edibles, so it’s natural to have a few questions before trying them.

Here are three common questions about THC gummies.


Does Taking Edibles Feel Different Than Smoking?


Yes, ingesting THC can offer a different experience than inhaling it. Here are a few ways edibles and inhalation differ.


  • Onset: The effects of edibles typically take between one and three hours to be felt. Inhaling THC has a more immediate onset, usually in a few minutes.

  • Duration: The effects of edibles can last anywhere from six to 12 hours, while inhaling delivers a much shorter experience.

  • Experience: Edibles are a combustion-free way to enjoy cannabis, so no harsh smoke or messy ash is involved. If you prefer an immediate onset and shorter experience, but still want to avoid combustion, try portable THC pens or dry herb vaporizers instead.


Ingesting THC and other cannabinoids can feel different than inhaling them, since the body processes them differently. These differences might feel minor or major depending on your tolerance, experience, and metabolism.

Are Edibles Good for Beginners? 


If you’re new to enjoying cannabis, gummies are a great place to start.


Here are a few reasons edible gummies made from THC are a great introduction to cannabis.


  • Simple Serving Sizes: There’s no perfect serving size for THC and other cannabinoids, but around 10mg or less is generally considered a good place to start. While it’s nearly impossible to judge how much THC you’re inhaling when you smoke a joint or hit a bong, it’s easy to enjoy a high-quality gummy that contains a precise amount of THC.

  • Easy Experiences: Enjoying edibles is as simple as reading the label, determining your ideal dosage, and enjoying one, two, or a few gummies; no rolling papers or glassware required. 


Why Are Live Rosin Gummies Ideal?


Full-flower live rosin gummies are the gold standard for cannabis edibles. This solventless concentrate preserves the terpenes and cannabinoids in a strain, delivering richer experiences than other concentrates.


Cannabis connoisseurs will appreciate the true-to-strain, potent experiences that live rosin edibles offer, while beginners will feel confident that they’re enjoying a high-quality product.
