Edibles are a great choice for people who choose not to smoke or vaporize their cannabis. They are also very convenient and discreet. No one will give you a second glance popping a piece of candy into your mouth. It takes a while for the effects of edibles to take hold so be sure to try anything in small quantities until you figure out the proper dosage for you. One of the advantages of edibles is a long-lasting high. A single dose may last a full day or help you sleep all night long.
