Did you know that weed gummies are the most popular cannabis-infused edibles in Canada? A study in 2019 found that 48% of likely edible consumers would choose weed gummies. It’s not hard to see their appeal. The brightly coloured treats appeal to adults just like regular candy does to kids.

Most Canadians who use edibles choose them because they feel they are safer and easier to use than other ways of consuming cannabis. They’re also growing in popularity with medical users, who find them a safe and dependable way to get relief.

Everyone has their own favourite weed gummy, but there are a few things to look for when you’re buying weed edibles yourself.

1.   THC and CBD Content

The THC and CBD content of a weed gummy will determine the experience you have. Most gummies are high in THC. You can expect those gummies to give you an intense high, leaving you feeling relaxed and euphoric. 

You can also buy gummies with a more balanced THC:CBD ratio. These gummies will still get you high, but the effects of CBD will balance the high. This means there will be less chance of negative side-effects like paranoia and nausea. 

At the other end of the scale, you can buy gummies with high CBD content and limited THC. These are great for medical users looking for pain and anxiety relief. They won’t get you high but can still help you relax and feel better. 

The type of gummy you choose will depend on the experience you want. Regardless, understanding the THC and CBD content of your gummies is the most crucial step to choosing the right edible for you.

2.   High-Quality Ingredients

Like all candy, weed gummies can be made from all sorts of ingredients. If you’re health-conscious or a medical user, look for products that use organic and high-quality ingredients. 

You can find gummies that cater to specific diets, too, like vegetarian, vegan, and non-GMO gummies. Gummies in Canada should be labeled with nutritional information so you can make informed choices about what you’re buying.

3.   Keep It Fresh!

Most weed gummies will last a long time (6-12 months) if you store them right. But they can go off if you don’t take care of them. Check the label to see exactly how to store your gummies. 

Most can be kept somewhere dry and cool, and they’ll be just fine. But some will need to be kept in the fridge to stay fresh. Weed gummies are unlikely to lose potency over a few months, but they won’t taste as good if stored incorrectly. 

It’s no surprise that so many Canadians are choosing weed gummies to get high these days. With endless choices, delicious flavours, and few risks, they’re an obvious choice for recreational and medical users alike.
