The Chemistry of Cannabis
by JARS | December 10, 2024
Welcome to the world of cannabis! As an enthusiast, you know that cannabis contains various compounds that create multiple effects. From the giggles to the munchies, every strain of cannabis offers a variety of unique sensations. But have you ever wondered what exactly causes these effects? The answer lies in the science of cannabis.
The Edible Effect
Welcome, fellow cannabis connoisseurs! Today, we're embarking on a wild journey into the world of edible highs. If you've ever wondered what the fuss is about with THC-infused treats, then get ready to unlock all secrets of the edible effect because JARS is here to enlighten and entertain. Grab a snack (non-infused, for now), and let's dive in!
The Edible Effect: Decoding the Differences of an Edible High - A Guide by JARS Cannabis
Unraveling the Mysteries of the Munchies – One Bite at a Time
Welcome, fellow cannabis connoisseurs! Today, we're embarking on a wild journey into the world of edible highs. If you've ever wondered what the fuss is about with THC-infused treats, then get ready to unlock all secrets of the edible effect because JARS is here to enlighten and entertain. Grab a snack (non-infused, for now), and let's dive in!
Why Edibles Pack a Punch
First, let’s talk about why consuming cannabis in edible form creates a different experience than smoking or vaping. When you munch on a THC-infused brownie, your body processes the cannabinoids through the digestive system, slowly releasing THC into your bloodstream. With inhalation, the THC rapidly enters your system, creating a faster, more intense high.
So, in short: edibles are like a slow-cooked pot roast, while smoking is like a quick-sear steak. Both are delicious, but each offers a unique experience.
The Liver Factor
Did you know that the liver is critical to the edible effect? When you consume cannabis-infused edibles, your liver transforms the THC into 11-hydroxy-THC – a more potent, longer-lasting version of its cousin, delta-9-THC. This chemical transformation contributes to the intensity and longevity of an edible high. Who knew that our livers were such skilled cannabis chefs?
The Sneaky Onset of the Edible Effect
We've all heard those cautionary tales of unsuspecting users gobbling down a whole batch of THC-infused cookies only to find themselves orbiting Jupiter hours later. What gives? Well, my friends, this is due to the slow onset of edibles. The effects can take 30 minutes to 2 hours for the results to kick in. And when they do, oh boy, strap in for a ride!
This delayed reaction often leads to having one too many, – and, consequently, a particularly "stellar" adventure.
Remember: patience is a virtue, especially when it comes to edibles. So start low, go slow, and listen to JARS Budtenders – we're here to ensure your experience is one that is both safe and enjoyable..
Edible Highs – A Body-Centered Experience
So, what sets an edible high apart from other forms of cannabis consumption? Well, to start, it's a more body-centered experience. Users often describe an edible high as a warm, enveloping sensation that spreads from head to toe, making it ideal for relaxation and stress relief. It's not uncommon for edible aficionados to feel as if they've been swaddled in a cozy, THC-infused blanket. Sounds delightful, right? Just remember to keep an eye on the dosage – we don't want that blanket turning into a restrictive suit!
Duration of the Edible Effect – Going the Distance
Edibles have your back if you're in it for the long haul. Depending on individual metabolism, dosage, and tolerance, the edible effect can typically last anywhere between 4 to 8 hours. This vast experience makes edibles popular for those looking to manage chronic pain or enjoy a leisurely journey through the cannabis cosmos.
So, if you're planning an evening of Netflix and chill (emphasis on the chill part), why not swing by JARS to pick up a tasty THC treat?

At JARS Cannabis, the world of edibles offers an incredible variety of flavors and options to satisfy every palate. From gummies and chocolates to beverages and baked goods, there's an edible for everyone, whether you're craving something sweet, savory, or gluten-free.
