As Luke Una might say, looks like a good shout for the Namaste Death Cult foragers among us!

Ketama # the Mrs got… looks good. I will report back when she decides to try it… late Christmas present and she’s trying to keep the head clear for trippy thing next weekend.
Last night I had half a Budmother 30mg HHC gummy, first time experience with any kind of edible. I had to give up smoking a few years ago due to asthma and I haven’t gotten stoned since and I think last night was the most intense cannabis experience i’ve ever had.
It took 4 hours to hit, it hit like a train and I was not prepared! Took it at midnight and was sat here at 3.30am thinking nothing was going to happen and then 4am, boom. First couple of hours I couldn’t even focus or concentrate on anything and the body load was overwhelming with some very strange feelings. I forgot how to breathe for a while. Last couple of hours smoothed out to a really nice high, like I had smoked a whole evenings worth of green all at once, and I was able to settle and watch a movie. My eyes were like slits, lol. Passed out at 8am.

Classic! Edible is my preferred method, love the slow buildup, peak, and lack of smoke. One further benefit of legality has been that you can get much closer to your desired dose rather than winging it every time.

Sounds like a nightmare to me lol … I never smoked but had some chocolate couple of years ago and it’s just not for me…

Not gonna lie, the first few hours was too much. Once the peak was over it plateaued out into very nice high indeed. Was very nicely stoned and I couldn’t tell the difference from a THC high.

The last time I did one it was also a 30mg gummy. I was travelling, and someone offered me one, and I forgot my tolerance (low - usually 15-20mg). I took it an hour before getting on my plane home, thinking it would make for a nice chill flight. The stars seemed aligned as I got upgraded to first class. It kicked in much as you describe and I was completely blotto pretty much all through the flight - would not recommend. The chair was comfy, though…

I had a piece of a Delta 8 gummy a few weeks back. Have been taking a little piece (approx a 1/4, probably less) before going to sleep for quite a while.
The last bag I bought from Budmother were stuck in transit from the States for ages apparently and they all melted into one big gummy! I cut them up into similar sizes, but obviously some gummy pieces are bigger than others (that alternative Smiths lyric in full 
).
This particular night I took a larger piece thinking it would just help me sleep as normal. I woke up at about 2:30am and checked my watch. The glare from the dials stayed with me as I shut my eyes and put my head down on the pillow. I then thought ‘Hello, I don’t feel sleepy at all’. I opened my eyes again and looked at my phone, and as I moved it up to my face and opened the screen tra ai ai ai lers!
I went downstairs so as not to disturb my GF, and proceeded to wander around the flat for a couple of hours, alternately being a bit anxious/finding it all hilarious/thinking I was about to die. I kept going into the bathroom to look in the mirror and my eyes were huge. I played my (newish) guitar (unplugged) for a while and that calmed me down for a bit until out of nowhere I suddenly thought what if guitars all come pre-loaded with music, and they sort of play you.
That set me off on another round of anxiety. I made a cup of Chamomile tea. I also chewed on peppercorns, supposedly the terpenes pinene and caryophyllene are meant to calm the effects of THC down.
Finally went upstairs and woke my GF up to tell her I’d had too much gummy 
She was actually great about it and talked to me, calmed me right down!
Unexpected effects are seemingly much stronger than if you plan them!

Tra ai ai ai lers?! Are you a pacer too? I find a good old pace around helps too. When it gets a bit peaky I can’t sit still.
Good call on the peppercorns. I had tried that a few times after smoking too much weed but didn’t have any in the cupboards the other night. I hear some terpines in Lemons can help too.

PSA Delta 8 gummies are back in stock (prefer these personally to HHC, they’re a bit too full on for me, but YMMV!)
Do these get you high? What’s HHC?

Yes. To an extent. Delta 8 is a novel cannabinoid, as is HHC. HHC is ‘stronger’ than Delta 8

Oh yeah, they work. If you don’t have any experience with gummies do half first. Also, be prepared to wait 4+ hours. Someone in the Budmother reviews also mentioned they take longer than normal to kick in.

I can report back that the HHC gummies are very good, take around 3-4 hours to have an effect and are then very nice for the next 3-4 hours

Did you find they had a heavy/strange body load or was that tolerance kicking my ass?

First couple of times they felt a teensy bit overwhelming at points, but I think this was a throwback to remembering LSD or mushroom trips, thinking that you had ingested it and were not quite sure if you were peaking or it was going to get stronger. Now I know what to expect they’re just a really nice long mellow experience, it makes playing with my kids more fun than usual actually!
