It works for me but I’m a lightweight - doesn’t take me much. I dip edibles too. Couple minutes and 💥 bam!

AI overview

You can dip marijuana products, but it is important to understand the differences between commercially produced cannabis dips and raw cannabis flower:
Commercially available cannabis dips: These products are typically made with cannabis extracts (like THC or CBD) absorbed into a chewing substrate such as coco coir or plant fibers. They are specifically designed for dipping and are considered safer than attempting to dip raw cannabis flower.
Raw cannabis flower: It is not recommended to dip or chew raw cannabis flower. This is because:
Effectiveness: Raw cannabis contains inactive cannabinoid acids (THCA and CBDA). Heat is needed for these to convert into active THC and CBD that can provide effects.
Safety: Raw cannabis flower may contain harmful microorganisms like E. coli or Aspergillus, which are typically eliminated by heat (like when smoking). Ingesting raw flower could lead to health risks.
Dipping cannabis may have a slower onset of effects compared to smoking or vaping, but the effects may last longer.
