Edibles are just inconsistent. Even the ones you get from the dispensary. There's no way they are guaranteeing that every individual piece of a batch has x amount of THC. That's why you get one that tastes like a fruit snack and the next one is like chewing on a bud. Couple that with unpredictable digestion and edibles are almost always a gamble.

Is my tolerance supernaturally low or something? A 5mg gummy is plenty, and 10mg is physically uncomfortable. Not complaining of course, low tolerance saves a lot of money.

This happened to me too. Smoked once in high school and decided it was a waste of money and didn't again for a long while. Took a gummy after it was made legal on a lark and was all "oh, I get it."

When I started smoking hash (30+ years ago) I thought it wasn’t very good… I think though that I quickly became too high to know I was high. Does that make sense? It was only after a week or two I realised how pickled I was getting.

I hope you enjoyed your second gummy experience…
