Not Just Another Tincture Thread

i found this online Edible Dosage Calculator [For THC + CBD] - Veriheal might help me down the line lol.

so that calculator is saying from 28 grams of 20% thc i get 5600 mg and if i make 250 gummies its roughly 22mg each

I just looked at the calculator and it is assuming a 100% extraction which is not going to happen, 70% extraction is really good. Once you know your mg/ml you can convert that to teaspoons or tablespoons. A teaspoon equals 5ml and a tablespoon equals 15 ml. Three teaspoons equal a tablespoon.
So, using your 1 ounce of herb to 2 cups of oil = 8.17 mg/ml.
Teaspoon = 5 ml x 8.17mg/ml = 40.85 mg
Tablespoon = 15 ml x 8.17mg/ml = 122.55 mg

Say you’re going to make 30 gummies and you’re going to use 3 tablespoons of infused oil.
3 x 122.55 = 367.65 mg/ 30 = 12.255 mg per gummy.

follow up question in relation to your cream man.

Do you harvest your roots fresh after cut? I have some pots that were cut about 15-30 days ago, i just cut the plant but left the stump with roots in the peat mix and forgot about them so they are 15-30 days old and obviously dried as fuck. can I use those roots or do they need to be processed right at harvest?

I’ve processed (very) dried roots…
If you have a beast of a blender you can reduce the ‘lumber’ to a usable size.

Pro:

  • easy to clean up the roots when totally dry

Con:

  • difficult to break down the dry woody material

Cheers

I’m trying a dry, mason jar + oven decarb today. 220F - 240F for 60mins.

Hoping for an easy method to ingest cannabis at night, maybe just use a spoon & swallow dry bud with some h2o.

Should this method work alright?

Shouldn’t be a problem if there isn’t much moisture in the buds. :+1:

How about loading it into some 000 gel capsules? Trying to get down dusty, dry flower…? Sounds chokey to me. But I am interested in how it works compared to other edibles.

Mix it into some peanut butter or another fatty nut spread. Lots of people will put that mix on a Ritz or Saltine. Look up a recipe for firecrackers. The second cooking isn’t necessary.
This will make it active very quickly. I can speak from experience, be careful with your dose! This can FUBAR you bad, lol.

Holy shit dude, you just brought back some memories!
Yeah, we made firecrackers…Ritz if we had em, but more often saltines :laughing: Definitely did the decarb, and the second cook, because that’s what I read on ICmag :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
I made em all the time, but everything was eyeballing, so I got a little infamous because people would come to my spot and get stuck for 4 hours until they could move their legs again, or stop feeling like my couch was a water bed. :droplet: :sleeping_bed: :ocean:
