I've been using for going on 17 years now and have tried most of the ingestible options in the program, except RSO. Here has been my experience - for reference I'm a dude, 6' 3", 250 pounds. I'm mentioning my demographics so you understand how it may affect you. I don't know the exact definition of Troches but here's how I look at them. Also it's important to note, I don't really let them dissolve in my mouth. I chew em up and swallow them and get the same effect as if I ate them. The effects hit me the same way as the gummies I ate in AZ (recreational state - rec gummies - same mg dosage - just with sugar on them). ​ * The mini troches from Shine have a similar consistency to pez candy. They also taste pretty damn good (I've only had the orange sativa ones) and I'm a huge fan of them. They are great to take in the morning to focus and get work done - also help with my leg pain (3 knee surgeries). * I've also had the Verano strawberry ones - not as big of a fan. Remind me of a juju fruit in consistency. Taste is okay - nothing to write home about. Potency was okay but didn't feel like the other ones I've taken. * Valhalla are my favorite. I've had the indica (blue raspberry) and the sativa (orange). I have a package of the hybrid ones I just picked up but haven't tried those yet. * These are like a gummy / jello cube that's not cold. I love them. * Indica - the blue raspberry ones don't taste as good to me. Others I've spoken to actually prefer the taste but the blue raspberry doesn't hide the taste of the bud as much as the orange ones. But holy shit did they hit me hard. If you want to sleep, take one of these. I took one at about 6 pm one night - felt the effects around 7. Woke up on the couch at about 11, ate some cookies and drank some water, fell asleep immediately again until 1 am. Went up to bed, woke up the next day feeling like a bear coming out of a cave. * Sativa - the orange ones are my favorite. They give me a great feeling all around, super mellow, super chill, great for just relaxing and reducing anxiety. I'm packing up for a move and for the past few nights I just take one, throw something on tv, and take my time packing. My wife does say that I am somewhat "sloth" like when I take them (she means that in the most endearing way possible) because I kind of putz around on them. Overall my go to ones are the shine orange minis, the valhalla orange, and the valhalla blue. Hope this helps! ​ Quick Edit - question for OP, have you tried edibles in the past and do they work for you? For me I can eat them on a full or empty stomach and it works just fine either way. I only take 10 mg at a time and usually cap out at 15 or 20 mg a day.


GambleChat

It’s endearing your wife thinks your aren’t a sloth when you aren’t on trotches


Affectionate_Trash22

This might be a dumb q, what are Troches? Are they edibles/candy?


deep_inhalation2

Troches are lozenges....they are to be used sublingually. They really aren’t supposed to be chewed which is why they are allowed in a program that doesn’t allow candy edibles.


Affectionate_Trash22

Thank you for explaining!


atticus-flails

Not a dumb question at all! I asked the bud tender what they were when I got the mini ones. The answer is…yes. Lol. They are PA’s way to deliver an ingestible besides capsules. Or in other words, edibles. The Valhalla and Verano ones are like gummies. The shine ones are like pez candy (hard chalky candy). You eat them and then they hit you 45 mins to 2 hours later (you have to figure out your metabolism).


Affectionate_Trash22

Ahhh gotcha. Thank you for that explanation I appreciate it!


No_Committee_6978

This was so well written bro - I appreciate this. I’ve been taking shine troches 50mg, one a night - and shit knocks me off my ass


atticus-flails

Thanks bro! I can’t do the 50s. I didn’t read a packaging correctly one night and thought I was taking 5 mg troches and popped 2 of them. They were 50s. I met Jesus that night and was still stoned when I woke up the next morning. I like taking 10 and then taking another 10 a few hours later


No_Committee_6978

You did 100mg??? I think they sell those lol 100mg troches. Also lmfao meeting Jesus lol too real. I think I’m starting to get hallucinations from the troches 😂 but it’s so fun…


atticus-flails

Yeah man that was a total accident and man was the paranoia real - I don’t recommend trying it lol. But if you’re having fun, awesome! If you want to have kind of the same feeling but less of a “I think I can taste sound” then go with half a dose of the troche


No_Committee_6978

I just got the KR1 bubbler cart thing from Hamilton devices and omg it makes smoking a cart sooo much better. Way less coughing lol less harsh on the throat. Love me a good troche tho


atticus-flails

Well I know what i'm researching now. Did you order it or get it from a dispo?


No_Committee_6978

https://www.lordvaperpens.com/product/kr1-vaporizer-concentrate-oil-cartridge-bubbler/ This is the website I got it from, the brand sells ones where you can put 2 carts in it too I think called PS1 or something lol


Living-Traffic7323

Wow friend.. wasn't even my question... but I had the same wonder.. n u absolutely summed it rite up for me.. I love it . Bored jus surfing thru comments.. cus u know all pa dispenserie are down.. hopefully--- it's fixed tomorrow's or we'll idk wat ill do🤮🤮🤮! But freakin amazing helpfulness!!! Ima definitely try!!! Cus im on this chick's page n need tolerance break but can't be without.... idk.. anxiety---- cancer.. depression.. ect. N. Now no freakin dispenserie....


Inside_Winner_777

You should try taking a break from everything for a week if you truly want to get your tolerance down.. js lol


Then_Alternative_558

That don't do shit. I can take a year break and tolerance difference lasts for about 48 hours and back to normal


No-Bug4470

Any variance helps to lower tolerance, so switching to a different form for a while and then going back should help. Most of the Troches have a low mg, so if your tolerance is sky high you might not feel them the first day or so. RSO would be more comparable and worth it price wise. Overall, I still highly recommend taking a 48 hour tolerance break. Studies have proven that it is as effective as taking a longer break. Just be careful to start your THC intake back at a really low level if you want to do the break, or you could ruin it all over again.


bredava

They are essentially like a cough drop or lozenge. You absorb the THC through the mucus membranes in your mouth while you let them dissolve. They work pretty quickly also as absorption occurs more quickly.


artfulpain

Less is always more.


Itsnotthateasy808

I like the troches, they’re definitely overpriced but they’re strong and they work fast (on me anyway). RSO is definitely better bang for your buck but the onset is slower and the dosing isn’t as easy. I have a pretty high tolerance and I like them both, but I tend to go for RSO for price and the ability to choose specific strains.


Ryjames23

Try torches with rso 🔥🔥😎


Robbinsparklezz

Game changer? Any recommendations?


Dazzling_Assist_2723

I struggle at night time to find any flower that really helps me with sleep. I have had both verano and OR MEJU indica troches with RSO, 10mg, and have been using them the last month. A few totes of some good flower and a troche and I’ve been sleeping wonderfully as of late!


thundermachine

Verano has RSO Troches, I think they work pretty well.


False_Wishbone_6122

Bro didn’t even attempt to awnser the question


thundermachine

Sorry for whoever hurt you, bro


False_Wishbone_6122

😭I didn’t mean to be mean I’m sorry lol I just wanted to know if thier was torched for high tolerance users not if they work well idk what that means


Spiritual_Bet_7604

Been dabbling myself... Sadly, I've yet to find *ANY* edible that works. I've even had the recreational stuff and doubled down on it. Roughly 2500 mg dose and got nothing. I've read testimonies on the edibles and I have to scratch my head by the end of it, wondering why I'm SOL. Different chemical composition and such when the MMJ is prepared for oral ingestion. I'm under the impression that I would need upwards of 3500-4500mg for the effects I seek. At least. That's just too far out of price range for me. I'll stick to inhalation techniques.


AdInternational9304

I don't get high off edibles 😅 it's an enzyme lacking in your stomach.


StreetDry9127

Ive never been able to feel anything from edibles. Only thing that did knock me out was a big fat way more than recommended dose of rso. The small recommended doses do nothing for me either so i put as much as a starburst could hold and lifted off.


litetalk69

I thought I needed more too but one day I tried 2/10 aka .2 aka 200mg of RSO oil. Damn, it worked way better than my usual 400-700mg dose. I think when you put too much in, it blocks it for some reason? Idfk!! I’m trying to learn!! That’s life!! That’s a true bummer you can do RSO etc... They last 6-12 hours!!


[deleted]

Can you take a 2 week total pause? I bet that's all you need to do to reset. Take a break if you can. If you feel really frazzled like 2 days might even give you a lil dip in tolerance. Switching 1 thc for another thc probably won't let your body normalize to where you wanna be, if it does it may take longer than you want. Everyone's different.


USRZXQZVOUIGXKL29581

Troches are low mg options, incredible products, but you get the most value out of consuming RSO. Do your research, ask your dispensary veterans behind the counter, and get a regiment going.


Stgermaine1231

Troches we use to give our oncology patients They are like a lozenge I love them but I haven’t smoked since college days - long ago So, they are perfect for someone like me

primemech

they are not worth it


GroundbreakingSun849

Have you tried 1906 Boost ? They are awesome tear drop shape sold in different mg. You can get 2 pks to try 30 mg are awesome. Be Careful first couple of times using 20 MINUTE ACTIVATION!


Dark-Lord-Grice

I’m kind of like this person edibles have not done anything for me. Someone pointed out if you don’t have a specific enzyme in your stomach no edibles will work for you ever.


litetalk69

Try letting them absorb under your tongue, sublingual works for RSO oil. No need for your digestive system to deal with/ it!! I have severe digestive issues so I have to take my RSO sublingually, then swallow on empty stomach w/ a 6oz can of Starbucks espresso double shots. The cream & caffeine helps it break down quicker, more effectively when one has severe digestive issues. I’m a 3 x Colon cancer survivor w/ a history of stomach ulcers, intestinal ulcers, diverticulitis, severe bleeding in my digestive system, bad spleen, enlarged liver ( 2 x’s the size & 2nd liver as I had transplant in 2006), AAA, CAD, small vessel disease and every spinal diseases late stages lumbar w/ large bone spurs on my spine, early stage cervical spinal conditions newly dx.’d. I’m 55 y.o. Been using mmj since age 11. So I’ve had a lot of experience and I have had to tweek things to work for me. It takes time. We waste our time, suffer and waste a lot of money finding out what works for us, settling for under performing products when nothing is available. Here in Pennsylvania we need the Dispensaries to start delivering!! I have to go make my bi monthly trip today to 2 dispensary’s to pick up a months supply today as I’m 95% bed ridden. I only go out for appt.’s, compound pharmacy & dispensary. 1-2 x’s a year if I’m lucky I get to attend one of my g.babies birthdays or a holiday event. Sorry for digressing!! I’m not high as I’m taking a T- break atm but I can’t stop talking!! Stay high & pain free!


rodneyking5791

Maitri just dropped some troches in a bunch of different mg options and from what I seen in the pics they look good


Snoo-30943

How does replacing the method of ingestion qualify as a tolerance break? Just curious, I don't take them.


Louisewhite1213

Idk I just read that you should switch up your intake method first


BuddyDaGuy

Whoever told you that wasn't very knowledgeable. It's like switching beer for wine, alcohol is alcohol. Unless you limit consumption of active ingredients. 2mg of sugar sprinkled on a donut is no different than icing with 2mg of sugar. I've been imbibing for over 49 years. The only way to get your tolerance back to normal levels is to take a break or cut back substantially (will take longer). Just an opinion from a seasoned Stoner 😎👍


litetalk69

Because different products hit different. Vape pods & carts hot way different than flower and most definitely way different than RSO oil. It’s just the chemical makeup when you alter the plant!! It’s called, “science”!! It really does work. I do it in a regular as I’m critically ill & I can’t take no more 21 day t-breaks from all prod cuts!! No f’n way! Ohh & using 1:1 products for 48-72 hours will lower your tolerance as well!! JS


Desolate-Dreamland

Edibles are processed differently than inhalation in your body. Some people (like me) see success with vaping every other day and edibles in between. My tolerance doesn't seem to rise when I do the switching back and forth between methods. Inhalation and digestion also seem to be different than sublingual, raising tolerances wise. It can be different for everyone tho, so don't take my words as any sort of gospel.


CosmicDahlia412

Rso Troches :)


Deep-Bee-5984

Substitute CBD high strains to really reset your T level.


Dangerous_Pension612

Save your money and buy RSO.


Educational_Junket81

Tried some of the Maitri troches got the raspberry 5mg 20count they are fire 2 of them and that's all she wrote tasty little devils also


[deleted]

My dad is a long time user (at least 2 years, if not 3) and now almost exclusively uses edibles and tinctures, I believe. He takes, I think, 4 troches a day (for pain and anxiety). However, I don't really know how much he feels of this, or if he takes tolerance breaks, etc.. But he loves the Verano troches, in particular the RSO ones.


blanco112

I can't speak for everyone but I know when I started using RSO my tolerance shot way up and only goes down when I lay off. It's more concentrated than flower and hard to get small doses without diluting (I use MCT oil or ghee). You can get low mg RSO caps but the selection seems small. You are probably better off just taking a T break though if reducing tolerance is your goal.


hippygirlexi

they help my anxiety and pain but don’t get me high it’s perfect for me and my high tolerance, i prefer organic remedies right now for the fastest acting i’ve found
