Edibles Dosage Chart for Gummies | THC mg by Tolerance

Answer First: Start at 1 to 2.5 mg of THC

New edible users should take 1 to 2.5 mg of THC, wait at least two hours, and take nothing more until the full effect arrives. Regular edible users usually land between 5 and 10 mg. The 10 mg mark is the standard single serving in US states that regulate cannabis edibles, and it is not a starting dose for someone with no tolerance. Gummies cause problems for two reasons: they taste like candy, and they peak hours after you swallow them.

Edibles Dosage Chart for Gummies

• First time, no tolerance: 1 to 2.5 mg THC
• Occasional use, a few times a month: 2.5 to 5 mg THC
• Regular use, several times a week: 5 to 10 mg THC
• Daily use with tolerance: 10 to 25 mg THC
• High tolerance, experienced only: 25 to 50 mg THC and above

These ranges assume THC. CBD gummies follow a different scale and carry far less impairment risk. Read the label for THC per piece, not per package. A gummy labeled 100 mg across 10 pieces is a 10 mg piece.

How to Dose a Gummy in Steps

1. Read the package label and write down the milligrams of THC in one piece.
2. Cut the piece so your dose matches your row on the chart.
3. Eat the dose on a day when nothing is scheduled for the next six hours.
4. Record the time, the milligram amount, the brand, and what you ate beforehand.
5. Wait a full two hours before you judge the effect.
6. Note the peak intensity and how long the effects lasted.
7. Raise the next session by no more than 2.5 mg, on a different day.

What Shifts Your Dose

• Body weight and metabolism
• Food in the stomach, since a fatty meal slows onset and can raise the peak
• Product type, since nano-emulsified gummies act in 15 to 30 minutes and standard gummies in 45 to 90
• Alcohol, prescription drugs, and sleep debt
• How often you used cannabis in the past two weeks

Signs You Took Too Much

• Fast heartbeat, dry mouth, dizziness, and anxiety are common and rarely dangerous on their own.
• Sit down, drink water, and stay with someone.
• Avoid more cannabis until the effects fade, which can take four to six hours.
• Call poison control or seek care for chest pain, repeated vomiting, or panic that does not settle.

Keep gummies in a locked container and out of reach of children and pets. Store them away from ordinary candy so nobody eats one by mistake.
