How long does a Delta-9 gummy take to kick in?

This is where most people go wrong with edibles. You eat a gummy, nothing happens after 45 minutes, you take another – then both doses arrive at once. The delay is real and it varies. Your metabolism, what you ate, and how the gummy is formulated all affect timing. On an empty stomach some people feel it in 30 minutes. After a heavy meal it could be 2 hours or more. The reason it hits harder than vaping is that your liver converts THC into a more potent compound during digestion. The rule is simple: eat the gummy, set a 2-hour timer, and don’t touch another one until that timer goes off.
