Edible Dosage Calculator
Work out how strong your homemade edibles are — or how much isolate, distillate or tincture to add to hit a target dose per serving.

Mixing tip: cannabinoid isolates dissolve in fats and oils, not water. Gently warm your carrier (butter, coconut oil, MCT) to 140–180°F and stir until fully dissolved, then mix thoroughly so every serving gets an even share — uneven mixing is the #1 cause of "one strong piece."
Edibles hit slower and last longer. Onset is typically 45–120 minutes — much slower than a tincture under the tongue. Wait a full 2 hours before eating more, especially with THC. You can always have more next time; you can't undo a serving.

For Mellow Moose products, enter your batch’s COA values (batches can vary — see the COA for your lot number). THCa figures assume complete decarboxylation (~87.7% conversion by weight). This calculator is an educational tool, not medical advice — individual responses vary, and homemade edibles are only as consistent as the mixing. All Mellow Moose products are derived from federally compliant hemp containing ≤0.3% Delta-9 THC by dry weight, third-party tested by batch. For adults 21+. Keep edibles clearly labeled and out of reach of children and pets. Do not drive or operate machinery after consuming THC-containing edibles.
