How to Microdose THC?

Direct Answer

Start with 2.5mg of THC (1/4 of a standard 10mg gummy), wait a full 90 minutes, and do not add more within the same session. The most common microdosing mistake is redosing before the first amount has peaked. Gummy absorption takes 45 to 90 minutes, and what feels like nothing at 30 minutes may produce effects at 75.

The protocol: take your microdose with or without food, note the time, go about your normal activity, and give it a full 90 minutes before evaluating. You are looking for a subtle shift, not a dramatic effect. Mild relaxation, a slight mood lift, slightly reduced mental friction. If you feel intoxicated, the amount was too high. If you feel nothing after 90 minutes, the amount may be slightly below your threshold. Adjust by half a quarter (1.25mg) for the next session, not the same one.

Finding your microdose is a calibration process that plays out across several sessions rather than a single night. Keep a brief note after each session: time taken, amount, food status, how you felt and when. Within a week of consistent practice most people identify their optimal microdose. The TribeTokes co-founders both prefer 2.5mg (1/4 gummy) as the daily working dose, finding it provides a noticeable lift without any impairment. That is a useful reference point, though individual response varies.
