1. What is a Cannabis Tincture Dosing Calculator?

Definition: This calculator determines the volume of tincture needed to achieve a desired THC dose based on the concentration of the tincture.

Purpose: It helps medical cannabis patients and recreational users accurately measure their THC intake for consistent dosing.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the formula:

Where:

• \( \text{Dose} \) — Volume of tincture to take (milliliters)
• \( \text{Desired THC} \) — Target THC amount (milligrams)
• \( \text{Concentration} \) — THC concentration in tincture (mg/ml)

Explanation: The desired THC amount is divided by the tincture's concentration to determine how much liquid to consume.

3. Importance of Accurate Dosing

Details: Proper dosing ensures consistent effects, prevents overconsumption, and helps with therapeutic use where precise amounts are needed.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter your desired THC dose in milligrams and your tincture's concentration in mg/ml. Both values must be greater than 0.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: How do I know my tincture's concentration?
A: Check the product label or ask your dispensary. Homemade tinctures require lab testing or careful calculation based on starting material.

Q2: What's a typical starting dose for beginners?
A: Most beginners start with 2.5-5mg THC and wait 2 hours before considering more.

Q3: How accurate is this calculation?
A: The math is precise, but actual effects depend on individual metabolism, tolerance, and product consistency.

Q4: Can I use this for CBD tinctures?
A: Yes, the same formula works for CBD or any other cannabinoid by substituting the desired cannabinoid amount.

Q5: What if my tincture has both THC and CBD?
A: Calculate each cannabinoid separately using their respective concentrations.
