How many Mg's of THC is in a bowl/joint etc? Need to know dosage, have glaucoma

[TheTrippyHippie]

1 Gram is approx 1000mg and 10% of that is 100MG THC

You can't accurately dose with flower. Go to concentrates/extract's if you are truly concerned with dosing.

 

[StankoStanko]

Generally speaking one joint is 1 gram. And that is 100mg thc. This should get you plenty of high. [I don`t know about these folks who say they tolerate 7 joints/grams per day.] On the other hand, If a gram would have only 10mg, then smoking a joint would be much ado bout nothing, as you would barely get a buzz.

This is worth a thought, experienced people automatically adjust their level of cannabinoid sensitivity. I estimate every single inhalation to be no more than 1 mg of THC. All that's needed is four or five, two or three times a day. Off course I'm speaking about medical grade grown under cheap lights. Mountain grown Columbian, as I remember it, would be a completely different story.

I have glaucoma, and smoke marijuana 5-10 times per day, but I havent ever been able to find out what the "correct dosage" that I need to reduce pressure enough. I mean, I like getting stoned anyway so I just smoke whenever I can, but I'd like to know.

I finally found on a patents website a chart and study results from glaucoma patients using marijuana versus conventional meds etc.
http://www.wikipatents.com/US-Patent-4189491/tetrahydrocannabinol-in-a-method-of-treating-glaucoma
In here, they are giving patients capsules, and only for 6-15 days... and they wanted to keep it at a subpsychotropic level i.e. not get high. If they got high, they were discontinued in the study as they wanted to keep it sub-psychotropic.

In the control group that is using ONLY thc without other meds, the ones that had success (I think they ALL would have if they used it longer and a lil higher dose) were taking 15-40mg of THC per day for 15 days or so (one success was in only 2 days at small doses!). Some people were feeling the stoned effects at 40-50mg and they were stopped.

So, I'm guessing that around 40-50mg THC is about what it takes to get a newbie high (like a bowl of commercial maybe?). It takes me maybe 1-3 bowls of high-grade, maybe a quarter gram, to get good and stoned. How many mg's of THC would that be, 100 or so?

Also another question: Since I have a tolerance to THC now, does it take more to lower intraocular pressure than it would a non-toker? I wouldnt think so, but if so I def. want to know.



Any input appreciated. Thanks!

hello to answer that question correctly you need to know some info so ill put it like this. you have a strain that is supposedly 27% thc. you wont really know until you finish growing the plant. say you get 8 oz off that one plant dried and cured, then you wax the whole plant bud and all.when you refine the wax to pure thc and you get 270mg thats means that plant is 27% thc.divide 270 by 8 oz thats under 33% thc per oz,divide 33 by 4 quarters thats under 8% thc per quarter, divide 8 by 7 grams thats 1.1mg of thc per gram of high bud. and medical cannabis in reality is a no thc strain. if you want medical go with cbd which is legal in all states. if you need cbd products let me know. my products are all made from 99.80% cbd crystalline

1% is one gram in 100mg or 1 gram in 100 ml, in that case one gram contains one mg

A measured ounce of good quality Mexican weed will yeild right at thirty big phat joints - about one gram each, and got me very very stoned.

That was probably 5% thc by weight - works out to about 50 mg for a buzz that last a.m. thru late p.m.

A 20 mg dose of thc will couchlock most people.

Everyone is so different 20mg does of edibles will give me a slight buzz after eating it daily at least three times a day now if I eat 40mg I'm stoned now my wife needs 50/60 mg for a slight buzz and 100+mg to get stoned. I know I'm an edible person others are not

Yes one gram of wax from high bud will have approx 1mg or less of thc

I almost died laughing at the wall of texts you all went through to answer an unanswerable question.
Without getting to in depth here there is no set amount of thc per a given mass of bud. 1g of indoor has more thc than 1g of outdoor will. Similarly 1g of a high potency strain will have more thc than a mid potency strain. Hell if you buy 2 grams of the same exact strain from two separate growers they'll have different amounts of thc based on how they were grown and when they were harvested. Not to mention all the other variables such as:
-where on the plant the bud was pulled from
-how long it was cured
-how much thc was lost in storage or stuck to the container ECT
-how much light the bud was exposed to before you actually smoked it

I could be here all day but yeah I won't waste more time. There's a reason your doctor doesn't tell you how much to smoke like he does with pills: dosing with marijuana is nearly impossible and no two tokes are the same. Smoke until your symptoms are taken care of (or tinctures or what ever ingestion method you use). Its not like you can overdose. The worst to happen is you either need to sleep it off or sit down for 30 mins and have a glass of water.

the science part of marijuana is in the growing and breeding not the ingestion folks! Happy toking

your stupid af, we have tests that can tell you how much thc is in the strain. and it is important to know how much thc you ingest so you don't ingest too much and so you know how much to ingest without overdoing it. You can't compare smoking to edibles though, those have 2 different highs, edibles are much stronger because 4x more thc is extracted than when smoking because the heat of the flame will kill of thc
