Cannabis recipe risks

While there are no life-threatening risks or side effects involved with cannabis edibles, it should be noted that edibles have the potential to hit much harder than smoking or vaping. With this in mind, it might be a good idea to start with small doses of edibles and build up over time. You don't want to eat too much too soon and potentially ruin the experience of these delicious edibles for yourself.
