 The Benefits of Cannabis Gummies

Especially in recent years, cannabis gummies have really exploded. More and more continue to turn toward natural cannabinoids like CBD in order to ease pain and feel relaxed. And gummies offer a discreet and tasty way to indulge!

Each chewy treat is small and odorless, meaning you can safely take them to your next hangout without drawing attention. You deserve to kick back in peace!

Consumable cannabis offers some amazing benefits that smokeables or vapes can't give you. When you inhale weed, the effects may be somewhat instantaneous, but you'll mainly see the effects of THC. However, when you pop a couple of gummies, the THC is converted into the primary active metabolite of THC, 11-hydroxy-THC.

The psychoactive effects of 11-hydroxy-THC are very similar to THC and even have a faster onset than that of THC. However, it still takes time for your body's digestive system to process the 11-hydroxy-THC. So, edibles will still take some time to kick in. But once you start feeling the effects, you'll have a longer and stronger high.

With all of this in mind, it's hard to resist the potent high that comes with weed gummies. They are more powerful and delicious, especially if you snack on our naturally blueberry-flavored Delta 9 THC Gummies.

Easy to Store

Gummies are exceptionally easy to store. These bite-sized candies are odorless and even have a hefty shelf-life. Though other forms of edibles often contain perishable items and can expire in a few days, that's not the case for gummies.

Gummies can be kept for months at a time as long as you store them properly. Be sure to keep them in an airtight container in a cool, dark place.

Manageable Dosing

When consuming edible gummies, it's important always to start small. You can increase your intake later. But once you eat them, there's no going back!

Even when you make cannabis gummies at home, you can add precise amounts of THC, CBD, and other cannabinoids. And this is especially true when you buy edibles from a reputable supplier. You can easily measure how much THC or CBD you'll ingest per gummy and proceed as you see fit. This will help you have a more enjoyable high and reduce the risk of greening out, which can be a challenge when inhaling cannabis.

Discreet

Odds are that you wouldn't notice someone near you eating candy (unless you were pretty hungry, yourself.) And most of the time, no one will bat an eye if they see you pop a candy gummy.

You can take a cannabis gummy while shopping in the supermarket, waiting for the bus, or playing video games with friends. Simply put, these discreet edibles don't arouse suspicion.

On top of that, they're odorless and will keep your house from stinking. This is important if you have roommates who aren't fans of smoke or vapor lingering in the air.

How to Make Weed Gummies at Home

You don't need to be the next Gordon Ramsey to make your own weed gummies at home. All it takes is a bit of time, the right high-quality ingredients, and an afternoon to indulge.

Though the procedure might seem straightforward enough, you should still proceed with caution. DIY-ing homemade cannabis gummies isn't as easy as it seems, and if you're not prepared, it can end in disaster.

It would be best if you only bought your edible gummies from a reputable and established brand. Your chosen source should follow clean practices and get all their products third-party lab tested to ensure purity and potency.

Here at Clean Remedies, we do all this and much more. All of our hemp is USDA-certified organic and sun-grown by local farmers in the state of Oregon. Nothing is genetically engineered, and we ensure every hand-crafted product batch is free from harmful or synthetic materials like residual solvents, microbials, heavy metals, and pesticides.

Our Delta 8 THC Gummies are the cream of the crop when it comes to cannabis gummies. Free from artificial ingredients, these snackable gummies are naturally strawberry-flavored and contain 10 mg of delta 8 THC per gummy. You don't need to make your own gummies at home to feel a comfortable and euphoric high - these gummies do the work for you!

Be sure to check locally for regulations specific to your area of residence before purchase.

Ingredients

• Cooking spray
• 1/2 cup cold purified water
• 1/2 cup cannabis-infused coconut oil or cannabis tincture*
• 1/2 tsp sunflower oil or soy lecithin
• 2 tbsp unflavored gelatin
• 1 packet of flavored JELL-O

Your Step-by-Step Guide to Making Weed Gummies

Step One: Prep the Gummy Molds

If you want to make your DIY adventure a bit more expressive, use gummy molds that have a fun design. You can easily find something cool and creative online or at a local crafts store. Especially if you're making these psychoactive treats for a holiday or even something seasonal, it will surely steal the show.

Place your gummy mold on a baking dish so that it has solid support. Spray a light layer of cooking oil on your mold to prevent sticking down the road. Coconut oil works best, as it can harden so that you're not left with a wet and oily mess.

Step Two: Mix Water and Cannabis Oil

Add 1/2 cup of cold purified water with either 1/2 cup of cannabis coconut oil, cannabis tincture, or another cannabis-infused oil. Add 1 tsp of sunflower oil or soy lecithin. Pour the mixture into a saucepan.

Place your saucepan on the stove over low to medium-low heat. You will want it to be barely simmering. If it's too hot and you're using an alcohol-based tincture, the alcohol can end up evaporating and ruin the consistency of your gummies.

Step Three: Add the Gelatin and JELL-O

Your water should be simmering at this point. Grab your JELL-O packet and 2 tbsps of flavored gelatin and slowly sprinkle it over the top of your water and cannabis-infused oil mixture. As you do so, constantly stir with your whisk to prevent lumps. Do so until everything is fully dissolved and you have a consistent texture.

Step Four: Add the Sugar and Citric Acid

Keep whisking! Then, add sugar and citric acid as you keep stirring the gelatin mixture. You can forego the citric acid if you want sweet gummies with no sourness. If you don't want to use sugar, you can opt for honey or agave nectar as a sweetener instead.

Again, be sure that everything is completely dissolved and has a consistent texture before moving on to the next step.

Step Five: Fill the Gummy Molds

Once your ingredients are mixed very well, prepare your pipette and gummy molds.

You'll want to leave your saucepan and cannabis mixture on low heat so that it won't cool down. If that happens, the oil will separate from the rest of the gummy mixture. You'll also need to keep stirring as you do this step so the mixture doesn't thicken.

The quicker you get your mixture into the molds, the better your homemade gummies will turn out!

Use your funnel or pipette to place your mixture into your mold. Keep your mold on the baking dish so it stays level, and your gummies can turn out precise.

Step Six: Freeze

Once your gummy molds are filled to the brim, they're almost ready to be consumed. The gelatin mixture just needs to harden!

All you need to do is pop the molds into the freezer for around 30 minutes. Over this time, they should start to thicken until they have a slightly tacky texture. After that, take them out of the freezer and line them up on parchment paper to fully air dry.

Enjoying Your Weed Gummies

Due to their long shelf-life, many think that edible gummies don't expire. But that's far from the truth! Though they can be kept for a while, they will go bad after some time.

Always store your gummies in an airtight container or bag in the refrigerator. If you want to save them for a far-off date, put them in the freezer instead.

As we said, making cannabis gummies can be hard. It's tricky to end with weed gummy bears that are actually reminiscent of something edible. Luckily, you don't need to resort to crafting homemade cannabis edibles. Just buy premium weed gummies online!
