firecracker question

Ok, so my normal dosage for vaping with my mflb is probably .1 (1 trench). I have a bunch of abv saved up, and i would like to know how much I should use in my firecrackers. I want an intense, but not anxiety filled experience with edibles. I've never done edibles before, and i do not know what to expect. I heard they can cause a high similar to a mild dose of shrooms. It would be great if the FC community could help me answer this question. Thanks guys!

Start out with a small sprinkling, wait 20-30 minutes, and see if you need more. You can always eat more, but once you've eaten it, it's in you. Kind of like cutting hair, you can always make it shorter, but once it's too short, you have to wait it out. Do be careful, because I have seen people have rather unpleasant experiences overdoing it on the edibles. Everybody will have their own response, so you will have to find your own optimal place. But you can figure, if you start out with the same amount you usually vape (1 mflb trench), it is unlikely that you will absorb more psychoactives than you did having vaporized that same amount, unless you are just barely vaping any of it off in your mflb and leaving it rather green. When you do your experiments, plan to stay home, and close to your bed, or at least plan to leave yourself that option, should you find yourself having overdone it.

Thank you for the reply. I believe i will try it this weekend, on a day in which i have nothing to do. I will probably take your advice and make 4 smaller dosage firecrackers. After I feel the effects of the first, I will judge how much I need in order to be baked, extremely baked, flying, outer space etc.

I personally suggest to people wait an hour or so with some edibles to gauge whether they feel effects...especially if stomach is not empty. So many people don't heed warnings and end up with a white knuckle trip first time out the gate.

Even after you start feeling the edible effects your liver continues to process the goodies and the high can increase. Better to start with too little and work your way up IMHO. Good luck!!

The first time I made firecrackers was at a friend's house on the 4th of July a few years back and being the first edible I'd ever consumed, woah. I learned about pacing that day, definitely want to start with a low amount and work up in time. I haven't tried it with ABV, but I imagine those firecrackers would be quite sedative, enjoy!

I think an hour would be safer as well.

I have a pretty high tolerance and use about 3 or 4 grams of dark AVB mixed with 2 to 3 grams of green or at least greenish AVB for one dosage. I take it on an empty stomach and I usually start noticing the effects after 20 to 30 minutes or so and they can keep growing stronger up to two hours after that. My trips last about 6 to 8 hours at least, usually I don't come down at all anymore that same day so it might be a good idea not to have anything else planned the day you try this. If you do this on an empty stomach and you need to un-intensify the effects for whatever reason I find it helps a bit to eat something to sober up at least a bit. Sugars work best for me.

Good luck and enjoy

For body weight comparison/calculation I am 175 lbs, 6 ft tall I'm generally considered a lightweight when it comes to smoking/vaping MJ.

1g heavily vaped ABV edible will get me sedated and calm, and add good pain relief.
2g heavily vaped ABV edible as above but add severe couchlock, munchies and probable sleep. This is probably proceeded by 1/2 hour of an 'oh no I overdid it' feeling.
> 2 g ain't going there intentionally.

1g lightly vaped ABV edible will produce a very racy high of a couple of hours followed by a hard crash.
1.5g lightly vaped edible will give a borderline psychedelic experience
> 1.5 g I find hard to describe (perhaps everything becomes too vibrational?)

2g hash was a 24 hour uncontrollable affair

as far as edibles dosing, i read a study a while back that took non-users of marijuana and gave them all identical dose of cannabis on an empty stomach (forget how exactly but it was a fair method) and then measured THC metabolites or some other "high" indicator.

The variance was over 100% wider compared to the same thing done with inhaling.

It really is all about the individual, which is why the tendency for modern medical marijuana edibles to list THC mg instead of amounts of weed is so awesome.

Unfortunately standardization is impossible with ABV firecrackers, so practice makes perfect!

~~side note~~
i thought id like to mention as i wouldnt be surprised if im the only one,
my first high, ever, was from a firecracker.
Over the next 6 months I got high about a dozen more times, and every one was from firecrackers.

Great way to start a lifetime love of cannabis

it depends alot of how thoroughly you vape your material also.

ive used 3-5g before and had good results. i wouldnt go any higher, i dont think.
