I think edibles are fine, but you have to know what you’re doing first. Start with a pen and work your way up.
This reasoning can be applied to almost any drug. Stepping into it is wiser than taking too much of something that locks in for several hours under extreme circumstances.
The overdoses Hank cites almost all accrue from edibles. Ever see anyone have a psychotic episode after too many bong hits? Of course not. But I have seen people eat too much (granted, they were dumb) and get all kooky.

I'm not sure my person was an overdose, but I understand they happen. My person grew up smoking like a normal American kid. He knew what he was doing. But somehow he was convinced that eating massive doses of concentrated oils would help him get to some higher plane. And then he’d pass out in the middle of dinner or burp excessively, or do this back and forth pacing we called elephant walk, or stare at strangers and start giggling- but none of that prepared us for Trump calling him.
I’m not talking about accidentally taking a bit too much. I’m talking about doing it intentionally, then doing it again tomorrow.
