Is THC Syrup Stronger than Edibles
THC syrup is a newer, popular cannabis product that offers a unique experience and many benefits. At LePow Extracts, we make our THC syrup with RSO (Rick Simpson Oil), a premier full-spectrum oil made from high-quality, organic, indoor-grown cannabis using our detailed extraction process. THC syrups allow for an easily customizable cannabis experience, as the dosing is easy to adjust and the syrup can be ingested in a variety of ways.
What is THC Syrup, Exactly?
As the name suggests, THC syrup is a sweet syrup made from cannabis and containing THC. It is typically made by mixing a cannabis extract or concentrate with vegetable glycerin, sugar, or coconut oil. THC syrup is highly versatile and can be added to cannabis cocktails and mocktails, as a glaze on desserts, taken by the spoonful like cough syrup, and so much more. It can be thought of as similar to simple syrup, although it may vary in texture and thickness depending on the base ingredients. Some THC syrups are also flavored, enhancing the experience through taste.
THC syrup, like LePow Extracts’ Pour Up RSO Syrup, can be a great option for consumers who want to try cannabis but don’t want to smoke. It also offers a fun and unique user experience. It can be applied sublingually under the tongue, which allows it to be absorbed into the bloodstream faster so you can feel the psychoactive effects sooner. If ingested in a drink or as part of a recipe, it will take longer to kick in but usually begins to work faster than traditional edibles.
THC Edibles
While THC syrup is edible, traditional edibles are solid products, usually in the form of gummies, like our Gummy Chrunch RSO edibles, chocolates such as our Cereal Killaz artisan bars, as well as baked goods. Edibles are popular for their long-lasting effects, with the drawback that they also take longer to kick in. Most edibles take 30 minutes to an hour to kick in, but you may not feel anything until two hours after taking one.
While the effects peak after several hours, they can linger for several more. Subtle effects can still be felt the next day for some users depending on the person and the dose.
THC Syrup or Edibles: Which One is Right for You
Deciding between taking THC syrup or edibles is a personal choice that depends on your preferences. Edibles take 30 minutes or longer to kick in and peak effects generally happen around 4 to 6 hours in. Higher doses of THC can last for 10 hours or more. Syrups typically kick in a bit faster but will also wear off sooner. This can be a great option for microdosing or for someone who doesn’t want the lingering effects of edibles.
The strength of THC edibles and syrups will depend on the amount of THC in the product and the dosage. If you’re not sure what dosage is right for you, its best to start off slow with both edibles and syrups. It’s also important to note that you will not feel high right away with either product, so give it time before you take another dose. The effects of both syrups and edibles are similar. THC is a psychoactive ingredient that stimulates the pleasure centers of the brand, giving you a euphoric feeling. The exact effects vary based on the strain, dose, and individual.
