Understanding THC Dosage Across Different Cannabis Products

THC dosage plays a major role in how cannabis effects are experienced. However, THC is measured differently depending on the product format. Understanding these differences helps consumers make informed decisions and avoid overconsumption.

THC in Dried Flower

THC in flower is displayed as a percentage. For example:

• 15% THC = moderate potency
• 20 to 25% THC = higher potency
• 25%+ THC = strong potency

Actual intensity depends on how much is consumed.

THC in Edibles

Edibles display THC in milligrams (mg) per package.

• Lower mg = milder intensity
• Higher mg = stronger effects

Edibles take longer to activate and last longer.

THC in Oils & Capsules

Oils and capsules display THC in mg per milliliter or per capsule.

• Allows measured, consistent servings
• Onset slower than inhaled formats

THC in Concentrates

Concentrates often display higher THC percentages than flower.

• More potent per small amount
• Best suited for experienced consumers

Why Dosage Matters More Than Percentage

Consuming a small amount of higher THC may feel milder than consuming a large amount of moderate THC.

Start low and increase gradually.
