I've been trying to find edibles that will keep me up and creative. I've been focusing on sativa strains. I am pretty new to weed and would love some recommendations from the more experienced users.

Highest dose I've taken is 100mg on two or three occasions, ended up decently high for a few hours, then fell asleep. I don't think it is a tolerance thing b/c I only partake twice a week.

Edit: The advice is appreciated, but more so looking to see if there are any popular brands established. Thanks for the help!

Personally I think the effects of different strains are little more than minimal to a complete placebo (similar to someone claiming Budweiser gives them a different intoxication than Heineken).

I'd suggest maybe trying a vape pen or flower. Edibles, without fail, give me a big body high, relax me, and make me sleepy. Vaping typically wakes me up for a while.

You could also keep using edibles and just chug a coffee when you start to feel tired.

So this is a complicated subject. On the one hand, I could pick you out two specific flowers from a dispensary that would be undeniably different in effects. On the other hand, I could find two poorly grown versions of the same "strains" that are so low on terps and minor cannabinoids that the difference would be negligible. Unique combinations of terpenes and cannibinoids definitely produce unique effects, but lots of cheap weed is so low in everything but THC that few people could tell them apart in effect.
