Yes it's the same as edible.

The big difference between edible and smoking/vaping is that with edibles your liver metabolizes delta 9 THC into 11 hydroxy THC wheras with smoking the delta 9 goes directly into the bloodstream and to the brain.

Your brain reacts differently to these two:

- Delta 9 will make your brain feel more high.

- 11 hydroxy will have more of a psychedelic effect.
