So im wondering if im just completely immune to edibles.
I have tried a few times an never felt anything this weekend I was at the cannabis cup and some vendor challenged me to eat a bag of hid popcorn I did that an took dabs an smoked 2 joints while I ate...
Now my girl ate one brownie and I dont think ive even heard of anyone getring so hammered off a brownie she was like drunk...
slurred speach couldn't walk we sat at picnic benches in one spot for four hours she was NOT havin a good time.
it wasnt all that fun for me either.

why is it edibles hit some so hard an some like me not at all?
Has anyone else had this experience?
she was WASTED kept sayin she felt like she had drank 10 beers an no memory the next day.

I have had same thing several times.. Used to work on me as a kid, but I've eaten a cake with half oz of ok moroccan hash and nothing happened.
Same as when I ate a quarter oz of good bud and nothing happened

ive heard something about enzymes but nothing really clear something about somepeople cant digest the cannabanoid or they lack an enzyme to make it active or somethin.

LOL always so funny to hear someone say how it was so terrible they felt like they had a whole 10 beers!
Thats like breakfast for some people I used to work with.
I kid, I kid!
I dont get much more of a buzz when I eat weed, but I vape it all day anyway.

I have the same problem with edibles made by other people.

I can think of 2 reasons right off the bat why you may have difficulties.

#1 If the cannabis isn't decarbed right, it's not going to be as effective for me. Some people like the over-decarbed, narcotic like, wasted, can't stay awake, CBN type edibles... I don't. Some people have a low tolerance... I don't.

#2 What's your blood type, what and how soon did you eat last and what was the edible made with? This actually will have a significant impact on how quickly and how well the edible is absorbed into your system. As an example, my blood type is 'A' and I don't digest anything made with canna-butter very well at all. Change it to olive oil and the effect is devastating for me using the same potency.

I make my own canna-pills and use Ghee (clarified butter) for my canna-butter products. I haven't had a single person eat my edibles and have issues with potency... even the folks who are like you and I. :)

Keep it Clean! :D
