Many thanks Texasbob, as you mentioned it's a bit different high. And it get's slower, perhaps stays longer.I wanted to share an interesting analogy I came across that perfectly explains the difference between smoking cannabis and using edibles. Imagine you have a bottle of whiskey, let's say it's 1 liter in size, and it contains 40% alcohol by volume. Now, let's also consider 10 cans of cider, each with 4% alcohol content. Surprisingly, both the whiskey and the cider add up to the same 40% alcohol. Here's where it gets interesting: When you take a sip of whiskey, the alcohol hits your system rapidly, almost instantly. It's like a fast lane to your bloodstream. However, if you were to slowly enjoy those 10 cans of cider, it would take time for the alcohol to have the same effect. Now, let's relate this to cannabis. When you smoke cannabis, it's similar to the whiskey scenario. The effects come on quickly because the cannabinoids enter your bloodstream rapidly through your lungs. On the other hand, using cannabis butter is more like sipping on those cans of cider. It takes a bit longer for the effects to kick in because the cannabinoids need to be processed through your digestive system before entering your bloodstream.
