Vape vs. Edible: Which is right for you?

We break down onset time, duration, and dosing tips for both.

4 min read

Onset and duration

Vapes hit quickly—usually within minutes—and taper over 1-3 hours. They are great for rapid relief or microdosing through the day.

Edibles take longer to activate (30-90 minutes) but can last 4-8 hours. Start small and wait before taking more.

Dosing tips

For vapes, begin with one or two short inhales and wait a few minutes. For edibles, 2.5-5mg THC is a comfortable starting point for most people.

Combine cannabinoids carefully—balanced THC/CBD gummies can smooth out the ride if you are sensitive to THC.

Choosing what fits your routine

Use vapes when you need quick control and shorter effects. Reach for edibles when you want a longer, steady experience like a movie night or restful sleep support.

Not sure? Start with a low-dose edible and pair it with a mild vape for small top-ups.
