For fun, the average dose is 5 mg, some go up to 10 mg. So what can you expect from 10+ mg?
Like alcohol, increasing the dosage of marijuana can have positive and some negative effects. High-potency increased the “journey”, more intense feelings, experiences and sensations. If you are new to a more intense journey, have a conversations with your bud tender so you can understand the nuances. You might also consider using a strain which has a bit of CBD in it to even out the high. Low to medium dose strains can relax you and reduce anxiety.

If smoking or vaping, the high tends to peak from 10-25 minutes after consumption and typically last 1 to 3 hours, though they can linger for up to 8 hours. So don’t plan to drive or do anything serious.
If things go off the rails a bit or you start to feel uncomfortable, don’t panic, things will work out. There are things you can do to come down from a high…including drinking water, eat, take a shower and then take a long nap.
