How long can candies last

Her advice? Use your own discretion about eating it, especially it if it starts tasting stale or bland or the textures begin to change. By Nashia Baker October 06, Save Pin More.

Tell us what you think For example, the strain used to smoke processes differently as it is prepared for eating.

Whether or not the preparation is at home or the grower, that THC impact will differ. As Huffington Post points out. Without info on content, shoppers may not determine the sensible dosage.

Experienced users suggest that new users should start by working slowly towards a 5mg dose. Those same veterans say to take your time building one milligram at a time up to 10mgs. No one recommends consuming more than 10mgs at a time.

The only exception to the 10mgs rule belongs to medical marijuana patients who need the added strength for their specific health problems. Smoked or eaten, any dose can be high risk for certain people. And, each of those edible forms digest and metabolize differently. But, it can be more complicated than that. For instance, if you make your own edibles, you have more control over how much you weed you include in your recipes.

If the recipe calls for cannabis, you can weigh it and adjust recipes for taste and impact. You can also include canna-based butter and canna-infused oils to replace the usual dairy butter, corn oils, or fats and lards. If you do, you are also adding potency to some degree, a fact you should work into your dosing. For example, if you infuse your biscuits or muffins with cannabis, you should not slather it with additional cannabutter. If you purchase your edibles, you should read the label available for ingredients, density, and dosage.

Where the edible identifies the strain involved, you must adjust your expectations, dosage, and intake frequency. Your system processes each form differently, and experience will teach you sooner than product descriptions will. Loose candies degrade much faster than treats in sealed wrappers, so plan to finish your candy relatively soon after opening it.

Keeping a bowl in a warm, sunny spot is also bad for candy. Try storing it in a dark, cool spot instead—like the back of a cabinet where the other members of your household won't find it. BY Michele Debczak. Subscribe to our Newsletter!
