I am a reg here and have name changed.

Me and my DH have made some pot brownies for tonight I have never smoked pot before or even been stoned. Were off to amsterdam next year and I would like a space cake over there so we thought we would try at home first before in an unfamiliar setting.

I am a bit excited nervous and again excited! Anyone ever made pot brownies what was it like? AIBU to be excited?

You could feel very bad for a few hours. You'd be better off smoking some to see how it feels and in order to control the feeling. Eating it is really not a good idea. You have zero control over the amounts nor how long the effect will last.
It could be a bit like getting on a rollercoaster, hating it, being really frightened and then not being able to get off for hours and hours. If you've never experimented with drugs before I really wouldn't advise doing it this way. Just smoke it with a tiny tiny bit first if you want to try it.

Love this thread 😂

If the world starts spinning lay on the bed with one leg over the side touching the floor, it helps honestly.

I would’ve thought smoking it first would be a better way to start but either way don’t panic you’ll be fine.

Bloody hell Mary Berry - you are everywhere with your boasting and bragging.

puffyisgood · 12/10/2018 14:57

eating cannabis isn't so wonderful. as already pointed out by one or two others it's almost impossible to get the dosage & in particular timing right - it can take seriously ages to work, & when it does the strength of the effect is often stronger [or weaker] than you'd planned.

Lovethetimeyouhave · 12/10/2018 14:58

Oooh I've never tried eating it! Please report back!

I spoke occasionally and the second time I tried it, it was like a rollercoaster of nausea.. Haha

Duchessgummybuns · 12/10/2018 14:59

Aww I’m a bit disappointed the judges pant brigade isn’t here yet, I had my 🍿 ready Grin

Duchessgummybuns · 12/10/2018 14:59

*judgey pants.. ffs

I'm like you, OP, I'd never had it as a teen and when we were gifted some was ridiculously excited to make pot brownies. I much prefer eating it over smoking, but echo what PPs have said: give it plenty of time before you think "Oh it's not working, I'll have another". I made that mistake the first time and had the shakes, racing heartbeat, thought I was dying, it was awful. The next times I paced myself and it was lovely.
Problem is, I'm no longer in touch with the person who gave it to us and don't know how to get any more!

itsbritneybiatches · 12/10/2018 15:02

So how do you make them? With what sort of pot?

Asking for a friend Smile

Hmm Yes there's nothing like an evening of drug experimentation to add excitement to your life.... I can't see the point in taking drugs and I find it even more odd that anyone would want to share their 'excitement' on social media. Schools must be letting their pupils out early on Fridays...

LifesABeachCoaster · 12/10/2018 15:03

When I did this it felt like the floor was a magnet and my clothes were made of lead. I could not lift any part of my body and it felt like the ground was pulling me down. Never again!

Take your time is the only advice I can give

Lethaldrizzle · 12/10/2018 15:03

Last time I had one I danced my arse off. That was quite along time ago mind. Enjoy the ride!

ogglet · 12/10/2018 15:03

This is Fab, enjoy OP! Get some snacks in, Music on and have a lovely time Smile

itsbritneybiatches · 12/10/2018 15:05

Do you use like the hard brown pot or the green stuff?

I want to make some

Bluntness100 · 12/10/2018 15:07

This isn't a great way to do it if you need to do it. I'm sorry, The reason is it takes at least two or three hours to go through your digestive system and work, and in addition you can't tell the dosage, ie you may have a lot in a given cake or none at all, so you could have anything from a total white out and being very ill indeed to no impact.

The one thing you can't do is keep on eating them. You just need to wait it out. At least three hours between brownies, preferably four or five. And you've literally no idea how it's going to impact.

It's not like smoking a joint, not even slightly.

Bloomburger · 12/10/2018 15:08

Was getting excited about how brownies were different than those cooked in a baking tray Confused

Greenbrownies · 12/10/2018 15:08

Bloomburger I'm glad I'm not the only one Grin Was all set for an interesting explanation of slow cooker brownies and how they were beautifully moist and chewey...

As it is, can only repeat again the advice above DO NOT under any circumstances follow through on the stoned logic of 'I have the munchies - here are brownies - brownies are nice - I will eat more brownies'. (Though like most others on here I suspect my advice is about 30 years out of date.)

Don’t eat too much at once, it’ll take a while to kick in so just be patient.

Eating it gets you stoned for longer, so just be aware of that if you’ve got work/kids/plans tomorrow.

(I used to be a stoner)

0ccamsRazor · 12/10/2018 15:19

If ye whitey out I recommend eating dry Jacob's crackers Halo

Loopylou6 · 12/10/2018 15:19

Cannot echo what pp's have said enough, it takes AGES to kick in, when it did, I actually couldn't move, could barely hold my own head up, was still ruined the next day.
You'd honestly be better smoking it.
Do you have children? If so I would STRONGLY advise you not do it, as you really won't be fit to parent.
