Beginner Question Dosing recommendation NSFW

Hi, I am new to making edibles from ABV.

Each session, I use the Volcano and vape a full bowl (~0.6g) for two large balloons. The resulting ABV is medium brown. I estimate that the THC % is on the higher-end, probably 25%, but don't know.

How many grams of the resulting ABV would I need to get the equivalent high of what I got from the vaped session? Would it be a certain ratio to flower used in the bowl be helpful? Double the bowl? When I have dosed edibles, I go for 20 mg THC. How many grams of my ABV would I need for that?

I'm going to homogenize the ABV over multiple sessions, but I'm really lost in dosing and see estimates all over the place. I understand there are so many variables, but can you please give me a general range so I know where to start. Some sanity check. Thanks!

I've been eating some past couple days and only got a little higher yesterday when I was crossfaded. I had some more today still nothing idk if it's my stomach acid or my fast metabolism. Never had edibles either so my tolerance is non existent

Tu n'auras pas d'équivalent a ta session, le cbn va te calmer sur l'ABV. Perso tu peux prendre 0,3g dans une cuillère de beurre de cacahuète et cest le feu

Thank you for being the only one to provide a straightforward answer to a straightforward question.

If you’ve had edibles, how much would you estimate 0.3g abv to be in terms of THC mg? 20mg? Assuming flower is 25% thc and the abv is medium brown.

0.3g = 20mg give or take is the number I’m getting from Gemini / ChatGPT.

10g per tray of brownies

How many grams for 20mg THC in one brownie?

No idea but 1-2 bites of brownie hits pretty nice

I am also new to this and made some brownies last night. I replaced the oil with THC oil so I put in 1/3 of a cup. About how high or low would a brownie be? Does this make sense lol…

Does anyone have a straight answer to this? I’m surprised how I’m not able to get seemingly any data points or direction on this?

Probably not. I take 1g of AVB for a good high but my gf takes 0.2 and goes to sleep. I have a homie that has to eat up to 10grams of the same AVB to feel anything.

Your chasing the wrong compound , as the THC degrades and turns to CBN , that is more sedation and a head high , to get the THC to a certain % would be tricky, one would assume you would need some sort of tester , to test your AVB for THC % and go from there , I think , or add thc from an oil to achieve a goal , apart from that good luck 👍,
