Edibles work differently
Edibles take longer to take effect than inhaled cannabis, and people respond to them differently. Follow the label instructions, give it time before having more, and never drive or operate machinery after using cannabis.
Storage
Many edibles look like ordinary sweets. Keep them in their original packaging, locked away from children and pets.
