How Do Cannabis Edibles Work?

Edibles get their psychoactive power from cannabinoids like Delta-8 and Delta-9 THC (THC stands for tetrahydrocannabinol).

Cannabinoids are naturally occurring chemical compounds found in the cannabis plant. While a few other cannabinoids have psychoactive effects, THC is the one primarily responsible for getting you high.

When you enjoy an edible, the cannabinoids first reach your digestive system, where they move on to your liver. As your liver metabolizes them, you’ll feel powerful, long-lasting effects.

The potency and effects of edibles vary widely — which means there’s an edible out there for every mood and experience level.

As we’ll talk about later, we recommend starting out small, even if you’ve smoked cannabis before, as it’s an entirely new experience that might take some getting used to.

How To Get Started With Edibles

If you’re new to cannabis edibles, we recommend adding some gummies to your first order from the Mood Shop.

Gummies are tasty, discreet, and easy to separate into smaller servings. These are just a few of the reasons why they’re ideal beginner-friendly edibles.

In addition, gummies contain precise amounts of cannabinoids, like CBN, CBG, and Delta-9 THC, so you’ll know exactly what to expect from each use. Mood’s third-party certificate of analysis on each of its product page.

When you pick up gummies from a dispensary near you — or online from the Mood Shop — don’t be afraid to start with half or a quarter of a serving for your first high. Alternatively, you can opt for gummies with low THC content and see how you feel.

We make it easy to find the right gummies and other cannabis products with helpful descriptions in the Mood Shop. Use the detailed info that we provide to get a feel for what to expect from each of our high-quality edible options.

What To Know Before Using Edibles

If you’re new to edibles, being prepared will make the experience infinitely better. You want to feel confident from the start, and following the tips below will keep you in the right headspace for a fun, comfortable experience.

Start Small

You don’t need to eat an entire gummy or pour an entire serving of syrup into your drink at first. Going slow can help you get a clear sense of how edibles affect you, and it’s also the best way to avoid being overwhelmed by THC’s intense psychoactive effects.

If you feel nervous or have any reservations about edibles, we recommend getting started with gummies. They’re easy to portion out into smaller servings, and you have plenty of options when it comes to THC content. You can even find micro-dose gummies in the Mood Shop.

Explore Your Options

Once you know how edibles make you feel, don’t be afraid to branch out and experiment with other options. The Mood Shop features a wide selection of edibles that we didn’t have room to cover on the list above, including yummy candies, baked goods, and more.

One of the best parts of enjoying edibles is finding new ways to satisfy your sweet tooth. We recommend tasting as many different options as you can to see what you like best.

This method for exploring edibles will also introduce you to new combinations of cannabinoids, which can be an exciting and rewarding part of your cannabis journey.

Get Support

You don’t have to try edibles for the first time on your own; sometimes, it’s better to enjoy them with friends.

You might feel more confident and comfortable with trying edibles in a social setting. We’re not talking about a wild house party — a quiet morning at home with your partner or roommates might be a better option. The goal is to feel calm, supported, and open to the experience.

If you’re getting high for the first time ever, we recommend staying home but having a friend or family member with you for the ride. You can enjoy cannabis on your own without any risks to your well-being, but some backup can make the experience more peaceful.

FAQs About Cannabis Edibles

Q: Are edibles legal?

A: The Farm Bill changed the way that cannabis products like edibles are regulated and labeled. Thanks to this bill, you can order edibles online or pick them up at a local dispensary as long as they are made with hemp-derived THC.

Under the Farm Bill, hemp is classified as any cannabis product that contains less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC by dry weight. All of the edibles and other cannabis goods in the Mood Shop meet the Farm Bill’s standards for hemp.

Before you order, make sure you know your state’s specific regulations for hemp products like edibles.

Q: What if I don’t feel any effects?

A: While some edibles have a fast onset, you won’t feel the effects of using them right away. Gummies, for example, sometimes don’t produce psychoactive effects until two hours after ingestion. In general, waiting it out will usually get you the experience you’re looking for.

If you wait for several hours and still don’t feel any effects from edibles, it’s possible that you need a larger serving of THC to match your tolerance level. You can try slowly increasing the potency of your edibles to see what your threshold for getting high is.

Q: How long does an edible high last?

A: Edibles can take a few hours for your body to fully metabolize, which means you’ll get a long-lasting high that is often just as powerful as what you’d expect from cannabis flower.

The duration of an edible high can vary, though — it mostly depends on factors like the amount of THC you ingest and your current tolerance level.

Q: Can I just make my own edibles?

A: You can make your own edibles at home, but it’s not as convenient or consistent as ordering online from the Mood Shop. Homemade edibles aren’t tested and regulated, so you won’t always know what to expect from each serving.

We only recommend DIY edibles if you’re an experienced cannabis enthusiast with all of the tools you need in your kitchen.
