    Been doing tincture for 2 years on and off and I usually SWALLOW to get the effect,but lately I’ve been mixing it up with spitting it out after about a couple minutes under the tongue.

    STRANGELY it doesn’t really dampen the effect MUCH.Does that mean it’s most likely being ABSORBED fully eleven without SWALLOWING the tincture?When I swallow it’s SLIGHTLY more intense but not DRASTICALLY where it’s like lightyears ahead..lol.

    Alcohol Tincture is absorbed in oral tissues fairly quickly with a fast onset of a delta-9-THC stone.
    Oils are poorly absorbed in the mouth and need to reach the Liver for transformation into 11-Hydroxy-THC the real driving power behind edibles. This takes about 2 hours to get cranking and lasts for hours more.

    Ty so much for clarifying!Yeah I thought so kinda.It’s the MCT oil tinctures that I mostly have and they take kinda SLOW to really PEAK.

    But it’s like a slight CREEPER effect where it builds up gradually and then BAM!Don’t know if that’s fairly accurate but yeah that’s what happens when I take them.

    Yes that is exactly how Oil based edibles hit. Creeps up then slaps you in the face all of a sudden.

    Some of the patients I help eat their edible over a long period of time
    30min-60min to avoid the "wave" of the cannabis oil kicking in
    Helps to certain degree but the initial rush is fairly powerful and hard to avoid

    Agreed!It’s like you can never tell when it’s coming either!Sometimes I really underestimate the potency of tinctures especially compared to vaping which smacks me in the face with euphoria from the ONSET.
