How Much Cannabis Should I Consume?

Start Low, Go Slow

The first rule of dosing regarding cannabis is to start low and slow. Conservative test dosing will help you determine the lowest possible dose to achieve the desired effect.

Overconsumption, especially if you are new to cannabis, is all too easy, especially with edibles. Beginning with too high a dose can create discomfort, including paranoia, dry mouth, and forgetfulness. If you are smoking, for example, beginning with a puff and waiting a few minutes to see how you feel is a good idea. With an edible or tincture, a 2 mg dose is probably a good place to begin.
