have you tried mixing the rso with sunflower lecithin to help your body absorb it better?
WTF is up with my tolerance? Anyone else experience this? Or maybe you're an expert caregiver that can advise?

But, when it gets decarbed for eating the terpenes get cooked and aren't part of the equation. That's changed now?
And, I've eaten and vaped all kinds of bud and oils prepared all different ways. In fact, I wasted some beautiful golden oil with terpenes, testing if it really needed to be decarbed. There's no difference concerning terps, besides aroma and taste, in my experience that ever makes it stronger. Sure, they can alter the high slightly. But, unless you imagine that makes it stronger and it works like a placebo, I don't see how that helps.
I think people that don't heavily ingest might be imagining things and the dispensaries needed a new marketing tool. But, that's just my experience. In my world, it's either strong enough, or it isn't.
Don't get me wrong, sometimes I like the higher energy buzz of sativa. And, the different strains can have a slightly different head feeling but only for like 5 minutes. Seems to me that they get a bunch of lightweights to test stuff and come up with the flavors and describe the buzz. lol
But, I don't imagine I know everything. I'll keep reading about terpenes. I'm interested if any of you have links to any studies that actually show anything on them. Until then, I'll just keep growing the strongest stuff I can get.

You know, I haven't tried that yet! I forgot. But, that only helps it absorb more quickly right? Maybe that could help get my first dose of the day in me quicker. Hmmm
I have recently started a keto diet too and I learned about MCTs and C8. C8 absorbs very quickly. I was wondering if maybe it might work to mix the oil with C8 for quicker absorption. But, they are different oils. It may not work if the body doesn't pull it in with the C8.

I'm totally intrigued by the idea of the stinkier bud being better somehow. You can understand how I have a hard time believing it. But, I will keep my eyes open for more info on the topic, thanks.

That is the worst part of edibles. My sweet spot seems to be about a hair's breadth from too much. Sucks feeling that psychedelic sea sickness.

You're a hoot. Thanks. I do my own tests and read the literature with a handful of salt on hand. Money has corrupted science everywhere now. And, there's way too much money in this industry to keep it clean.
Terpenes do alter the high somewhat, maybe more for newbies. But, they don't seem to increase strength in my experience. I could be wrong. Maybe all the bud in my entire area is faulty somehow. But, it doesn't seem likely.

Good point. There was that aspect to it for sure the first few days. I kept finding myself standing by the vaporizer and going oh yeah and walking away. But, that habit seemed to break after a few days.
Here's the thing though, I get much higher when I vape. But, only for 5 minutes. I'm only eating enough to just barely feel it in the background. If I ate enough to feel as high as I do when I vape I probably would just pass out.
No, what I'm talking about is a minimum dose to barely feel it. Just enough to not feel the strong cravings to vape.

I didn't expect to get so many replies. Sorry if I missed anyone. It sounds like some people just have a high tolerance to edibles, like me, or even higher. So, maybe that's a thing then. Thanks.
If science wanted to do something useful it could study why people react so differently and have such widely varying experiences with cannabis instead of taking money to create the latest hype for the kiddies.
mostly kidding chill! I like the different highs, I do. When I'm vaping for fun or a creative boost. But, for joint loosening medicine it's all in the strength baby.

Some people just have insane edible tolerance. Like me. I do 300mg+ plus just to get started. My brother is the same way. Coconut oil extraction gives less of a shit your pants effect at higher doses vs RSO imo

Bro, I smoke like the muffler on a beat up jaloppy and been doing it for about 20yrs consecutive with very minimal breaks in between and as long as I have quality budd, I smoke like an 8th to a qt a day and by the end of the night Im baked tf out. Only boot as budds wont get you there. Even with a sky high tolerance. Not enough importance is placed on the terp profile. There was just a vid on youtube with some grow pros who are in denver and they were just saying how important terps are and how they affect the quality of the high...once you said 300ml of edible rso, i said NO FUCKIN WAY, bro i take 150ml of tincture and added with smoking i end up in the twilight zone. Check your terps, get a budd test if its possible in your area. Find a way to enhance terps, Im just not trying something called terpinator and idk the full results yet but 12 hrs after 1ml is added into a gallon, I can smell the room as if shes in flower, but shes not, shes in veg. Something terpinator does to the stomata that causes a reaction where it stinks like a mfer after use. It also works to make your budds dense. Look it up.
With me its how much of a particular strain that i smoke. Thats why i like to grow as many different kinds at once as possible so I never build up tolerance. Praise to the guy that created femenized seeds

I am a medical user/grower. I used to use rso..500mg a day or so. Bought a levo and infuse for edibles now. If looking for a high..smoke. if a med then be prepared for what it does. Painkiller for me. Anti nausea for others..etc. The high is so different. Once my tolerance rose i do not get stoned on the medical stuff. I get a buzz smoking but does not last. No pain though. Good tradeoff to me.

When I want to get higher than the Himalayas, I make a drink called bhang lasse, it’s an Indian milk drink that contains bud. I’m sure I make it different though.
I infuse the smallest amount of oil I can, lately been using rosin pucks that still have rosin all over them. I put the infused oil into whole milk, reduce temp to 140 and throw an egg yolk in. It emulsifies it all and I’m left with a milky jelly drink that gets me high for sometimes 2 days straight if I use too much rosin.

For those thinking and discussing terpenes, ask yourself:
Why is the buzz so different between strains? 2 hits of a 15% bud is not automatically equal to 1 hit of 30% bud. You prefer some strains over others. That is terpenes. You can only get the true FEEL of each strains terpenes from the bud. Concentrates usually lose many of them except for the concentrated flavors.
If you cannot tell the significant differences between the feel of strains, usually this means you have a high tolerance.
With a high tolerance and a lot of smoking or vaping, you can still feel a lot of the differences but not all.
There is a sweet spot for flower smoking, quantity-wise. It is very difficult to keep it down at those levels when you grow your own.
Finding what you like is all that matters.

I guess that explains why ive never enjoyed extracts and only like flower. oils, dabs, it all gives me that same gloomy feeling without the charm. To each their own though
