The strongest edible you can legally buy is decided by your state's package cap long before any brand gets a say. Most adult-use edible shelves stop at 100mg a package, Michigan and Minnesota at 200mg. Missouri sets no cap and sells 1,000mg bags, and the 3,000mg jars that turn up online are hemp products living on a federal definition that changes on December 11. So "strongest" has three answers (per piece, per package and per dollar), and this page gives all three.

Here is the position the ranking is built on. A high-dose edible is a tool for a patient whose tolerance already demands it, and a bad first purchase for everyone else. The reader we wrote for is the oncology or chronic pain patient who has used cannabis daily for years and now needs 30mg or more to feel what a new user feels at 5. Bigger doses do not buy more relief (our pain gummy ranking walks through why), so the honest case for a 1,000mg package is arithmetic. If your working dose is 50mg, a 100mg tin is two nights.

We verified three state-licensed products live on their brands' own sites on October 14, 2026, all at 1,000mg a package, and priced each one on a named dispensary menu the same day. Three is the honest count. Korova, the 1,000mg name already in our brand reviews, did not survive the check.

Who should close this tab?

Anyone who has not used edibles daily for months. If that is you, the right page is our beginners ranking, and the right starting dose is in the dosing guide, where 30mg and above is the very high tier and 2.5mg is the first-timer ceiling. The dosing calculator will put a number on it. A daily user drifting upward should read the tolerance break guide before buying a bigger package, because a two-week reset is cheaper than a 1,000mg bar.

What does a very high dose feel like?

For someone without the tolerance for it, a very high dose feels like a racing heart, nausea, dizziness, a distorted sense of time and anxiety that can tip into paranoia, and it does not end quickly. In the Johns Hopkins brownie study, 25 and 50mg markedly impaired people who rarely used cannabis, and the effects took 30 to 60 minutes to start.

Duration is the part people underestimate. The main effects of an edible run 4 to 8 hours and can reach 12 at higher doses, per the figures on our duration guide. That is a long time to be frightened. A Colorado emergency department study (Monte and colleagues, Annals of Internal Medicine, 2019) found edible visits were more likely than smoking visits to involve acute psychiatric symptoms, 18.0% against 10.9%, and edibles drew 10.7% of cannabis-attributable visits while making up 0.32% of the THC sold. Hallucinations, paranoia and a break from reality at high doses are covered on our psychosis risk page, which also names who should not be anywhere near this range.

If it happens: stay somewhere safe, do not take more, and wait it out with someone sober. Call Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222 for advice, and 911 if the person collapses, has a seizure, has trouble breathing or cannot be woken. The step-by-step version is in what to do if you ate too much.

Then storage, which matters more at 1,000mg than anywhere else on the shelf. Each package on this list holds one hundred 10mg servings in a form that looks like candy. US poison centers logged 41,612 unintentional recreational drug ingestions by children under 6 between 2000 and 2024, 84.7% of them cannabinoids (Uskovich and colleagues, BMC Public Health, 2026). Keep it locked, in the original child-resistant package, out of sight.

What is the strongest edible you can legally buy?

By package, a state-licensed 1,000mg product, sold only where the rules allow it: LEVEL Protab 100 in California and Pennsylvania, and the Camino and Grön high-dose lines in Missouri (Grön also in Arizona medical stores). By piece, the 100mg LEVEL tablet and the 100mg Grön square tie. By dollar, LEVEL at 8.4 cents per milligram on the menu we checked.

Ranked by milligrams per package, all three tie at 1,000mg, so price per milligram breaks the tie, and divisibility breaks the one after that. "Servings" means 10mg servings, the adult-use piece size most states cap at.

1. LEVEL Protab 100 (100mg tablets, ten to a bag). The cheapest milligram on the list at $84 for 1,000mg, and the only one built like medicine: a swallowed, sugar-free tablet scored down the middle, so one tablet is two 50mg doses without a knife. LEVEL lists the 10-pack in California and Pennsylvania. The critique is about the category, and we think it is a fair one. California's rules define a swallowed tablet as a cannabis concentrate, not an edible, so it falls under the 1,000mg concentrate cap instead of the 100mg edible cap. That is the only reason a California adult-use store can sell this bag while every gummy beside it stops at 100mg. If the word "edible" means food to you, this is not one.

2. Camino Wild Cherry "Exhilarate" High Dose (50mg THC per gummy, 20 to a pack). Kiva's page lists this one in Missouri only, at 50mg of THC plus 10mg each of CBG and CBC, and High Profile in St. Charles had it at $95. The 50mg piece is the most useful denomination on this list for a high-tolerance patient, since the whole gummy is the dose. The brand copy pitches it for an "all-night rager," which is an odd thing to print on a package that holds a hundred servings, and the CBG and CBC ride along on preclinical evidence. Weigh them at zero.

3. Grön Big Bar (100mg squares, ten to a bar). A Fair Trade chocolate bar carrying 1,000mg, sold in Missouri adult-use stores and Arizona medical ones. It ranks last for a reason printed on Grön's own product page, which suggests new users start with a tenth of a piece. Nobody cuts a chocolate square into accurate tenths, so in practice this bar is ten 100mg doses, and 100mg is past what most daily users need. Swade Cannabis in Kansas City listed it at $95 and out of stock. It is the right buy for one patient: someone whose dose is already 50 to 100mg and who wants it in chocolate.

Dropped: Korova. The brand built its name on the Black Bar, and our Korova review covers it. Korova's own page lists the bar at 1,000mg of "total active cannabinoids" without saying how much of that is THC, which is the one number this ranking needs. It also has a recall behind it: Master Extracts, which makes Korova, pulled eight Black Bar batches between March 26 and April 16, 2026, after California's Department of Cannabis Control found THC-O and THC-P in them, two cannabinoids California does not permit in cannabis products.

How many mg is the strongest edible?

On a licensed shelf, the ceiling is whatever your state allows. In 11 of the 14 states we cover, an adult-use edible stops at 10mg a serving and roughly 100mg a package. Michigan and Minnesota allow 200mg, and Missouri's rules set no milligram cap at all, which is why Missouri is where the 1,000mg gummies and chocolate bars live.

Medical programs split three ways. Maryland and Michigan set higher ceilings (40mg and 50mg a serving), California, Illinois, Oregon and Washington hold medical edibles to a 100mg package, and Arizona, Colorado, Massachusetts, Missouri, New Jersey and New York set no milligram cap for medical edibles in their rules at all. Each number below was read from the state's rule or statute text on October 14, 2026.

Edibles only. Tablets, capsules and tinctures often carry separate, higher limits (California allows 1,000mg a package for adult use). "No cap in rule" means the rule we read sets no milligram limit. Minnesota's 2026 amendment struck "adult-use" from its 10mg and 200mg edible clause, and whether that now reaches medical products is a question the state has not answered. Nevada's regulation does not separate the two programs, and we could not open the statute that decides whether it covers medical dispensaries.

Is a 1,000mg edible a lot?

Yes. A 1,000mg package is one hundred 10mg servings, ten times the 100mg package most adult-use states allow, and forty times the 25mg dose that markedly impaired people without a tolerance in the Johns Hopkins study. Even a 100mg single piece is ten servings and belongs only to people with long, heavy daily use.

The number on the package is the total, not the dose, which is the label-reading habit that keeps people out of the emergency department. At $84 to $95, these packages work out to 8.4 to 9.5 cents a milligram. The 100mg chocolate bars on our chocolate ranking run 14 to 25 cents. The discount is real, and it is a discount on a quantity most people cannot safely use.

Are 3,000 mg edibles real?

Yes, and they are hemp products. The 3,000mg listing we checked was a jar of thirty 100mg delta-8 gummies from Silverback Hemp Co., sold through an online vape retailer and marked out of stock on October 14. No state-licensed market in our table allows a package that size.

That jar is three hundred 10mg servings of a cannabinoid usually made by converting CBD in a lab, and our guide to hemp-derived versus state-licensed THC covers why the label is the least reliable part of the product. We do not rank any of them.

What happens to high-dose hemp edibles on December 11?

They stop being hemp under federal law. From December 11, 2026, the full Section 781 definition applies: total THC counts, any product over 0.4mg of total THC per container falls outside hemp, and cannabinoids synthesized outside the plant, the route lab-converted delta-8 takes, are excluded. A 1,000mg or 3,000mg hemp jar fails every part of that.

The earlier date matters too. Cannabinoids the plant cannot naturally produce lose hemp status on November 12, and some states move first: Missouri and Illinois on November 12. The full calendar and the litigation behind it are on our hemp ban explainer. Licensed dispensary products, including all three picks above, sit under state programs and are not touched by either date.
