How Long Does Weed High Last?
by Abhagail Jheniffer ShoppingYou should know how long your high will
last regardless of whether you have something to do or you're just not enjoying
it. Sadly, the answer to that question is far from clear-cut - a lot of factors
come into play.
We'll show you how to estimate how long a
weed high will last and give some tips on how to shorten or prolong it. If
vaping, make sure you use proper dry
herb vaporizer pen.
The Quick Answer
We'll start with a quick--albeit not very
precise--answer just in case you're in a hurry. Weed highs can last anywhere
from one to 24 hours. Your body processes THC, this is the cannabinoid
that gives you that high, alone.
Why such a huge range? Since not everyone
metabolizes THC at the same rate, nor everyone uses a dry herb vaporizer pen, and not all THC products contain the same
amount of THC. Obviously, a 23-hour time block is not precise enough to answer
your question, so let's explore some variables.
Factors That Play A Role In How Long A Weed High Lasts
THC intake plays a key role, but there's
more to it than that. Here are some things to consider:
·
Your metabolism. Your
weight, height, body composition, and the resulting metabolic rate will all
affect how long your high lasts. Your metabolism isn't necessarily affected by
your size either. Your muscle mass is the most important factor in metabolism.
Muscular people will have a faster metabolism, which will result in a shorter
high.
·
Your tolerance
level. Let's use alcohol as an analogy again. A new smoker's high can last
longer than a person who has built up a tolerance to the same amount of
marijuana.
·
THC percentage. Cannabis
plants can contain THC levels ranging from 0 to over 25%, though strains over
20% are rare. The longer the high lasts, the more THC is in the product.
·
Consumption
method. Different consumption methods affect how your body processes THC,
as well as how long the high lasts. Eating edibles can keep you high for up to
24 hours compared to smoking, vaping, and dabbing.
There is no firm answer to this question,
but you can narrow down which end of that 23-hour range your high is more
likely to fall after you’ve used a dry
herb vaporizer pen.
When Will The High Begin?
When calculating the duration of a high,
you must also consider when the high will begin. Below are the ranges for the
actual high, not the lead-up. A high's duration is influenced by the same
factors as how quickly you feel it. However, the consumption method carries
more weight.
The most popular consumption methods kick
in as quickly as:
Ø Smoking, vaping, or dabbing: Usually around 10 minutes.
Ø Sublingual: Approximately 15 minutes.
Ø Edibles: Peak around 2 hours.
In addition to considering what you've
eaten and what type of edible it was, edibles are the trickiest option to
calculate. Liquids and other edibles require less digestion and may be digested
faster.
