Consuming a conventional gummy typically results in effects lasting around 6 to 8 hours and, in some cases, even longer. The onset of these effects is not immediate. It requires a waiting period of 1 to 2 hours after ingestion.
The landscape of the cannabis industry is dynamic, introducing innovations such as "nanoformulation" in edibles. This technique reduces cannabis particles in edibles to a significantly smaller size for faster absorption by the body. While this accelerates the onset of effects, the trade-off is shorter, with most nano-formulated edibles taking effect within 15 to 30 minutes and lasting only a few hours.
