Which one is better for edibles and why? Any other ones worth looking at that are comparable to these two? Interested in making my own gummies and hard candy and want something to make them as consistent as possible. Thanks!
Feeling dumb asf rn. The orange thing is a magnet and came on top of it. Maybe it has something to do with it? I can push down on it but it WILL NOT turn. Also tried pushing two sides in and popping it up but not working.. any advice?
Title explains it. Thanks in advance.
Last night I ate two 5 mg THC gummies over the course of about 3 hours, so 10mg total. This was my absolute first time using weed in any form. I have never put it in my body through any means before eating those gummies. I ate them on a full stomach and ate some fatty foods before hand which is apparently important. Anyway, long story short, absolutely nothing happened. I was awake for about 6 hours just waiting for something to happen and well, it never did.
My question for you guys is...is this normal? I've already done quite a bit of research and apparently some people just don't have the enzymes to digest THC, while others said that newbies don't always feel the effects their first few times. I suppose either of those scenarios are plausible but if there's something I'm missing I would love to know. Thanks
Edit: thanks for the comments everyone. I will definitely try out your advice
So I’ve made edible gummies before, they were a hit.
When I finished heating my oil and decarbed weed together for 3 hours I left it to sit at room temp for 24 hours.
Im kinda short on time for making this batch so I’m wondering if the cannaoil will still be good if I go straight to using it?
I have had weed edibles 5-6 times in the past (brownies, ice cream, candy, etc) and I always end up throwing up afterwards.
I can smoke ridiculous amount of joints and be okay but somehow edibles have always made me throw up.
I am in all my senses, i can talk and hear everything and my brain functions but body does not respond to my commands, when on edibles..
Does this happen with anyone else ? or my body just isnt suitable for it ?
I had decarb with my breakfast (at 1pm), then I got a uber to the gym. I did leg there and eventually had to improvise the workout as I got high there and felt like my spine was going to suffer from doing zercher squats.
I leave and get another uber, however I needed to piss so I go into a nearby Zambros and use the toilet. Then I buy a overpriced red bull because I felt it was weird to not get anything as I literally walked in wearing sunglasses, a hat and noise cancelling headphones and went straight to the toilet.
The uber arrived soon after this and I ended back at my apartment. I had a plan of making a protein shake, then quickly make breadcrumbed chicken breasts with the air fryer. But I just ended up playing Skyrim on the switch while snacking on the couch for two hours.
I eventually felt hungry so I got up and made myself a protein shake and went to my room and started playing Genshin Impact. But found it too hard to read subtitles so i played Minecraft instead as it's been a while and felt like casually playing.
After finding a mountain by the ocean, I made a little 'house' on the face of it. I know I needed to eat more since of gym, however it was 9pm now and I felt sleepy. So I had a shower to wake myself up and as I was in my room, getting ready to cook. My room-mate came back with his fwb and could hear that they were in the kitchen.
Usually, I would just say hello and wait until they're done then go out and use the kitchen. However, I'm high still and don't really like seeing them together as while they're not dating. I dislike when they frequently make out and act all cute together and I'm in the same room. And I've never had a girlfriend or any romantical experience so I always feel jealous and sad when I see them. Which sobered me up a bit.
I laid on my bed and waited till they were done. But I made the mistake of laying on my bed and didn't want to get up by the time they finished. I ended up falling asleep and all I had yesterday was breakfast, prework out, a red bull, a lot of snacks and a protein shake with creatine.
So definitely my worst day with eating after the gym. Today, I'll have to meal prep for lunch and dinner as the meat is expiring before I get high as I'm going out to dinner with friends.
TL:DR - Had decarb with breakfast, then went to the gym. All I had afterwards was a red bull, snacks and a protein shake. I was planning on cooking dinner but my room-mate and his fwb used the kitchen when I was going to and I ended up falling asleep.
Never tried this brand but I’d love to be able to make one of these at home and take it with me. Any recipes or ideas would be appreciated, especially those that include a good amount of CBD!
Hey all! I make a lot of cannaoil these days, and I have been making more extra-strong MCT oil for my husband (insane tolerance and GI disorder means he doesn't feel "normal" doses of edibles at all). My issue is that I find that when I infuse oil with flower, I lose between 10 and 25% of my oil volume, i.e. if I pour 8 ounces of oil onto my bud, it only ends up being 7-7.5 ounces when I strain and squeeze it out. When I'm working with small amounts of oil and large amounts of flower (right now I'm preparing to infuse an entire ounce of good shake into 4 ounces of MCT oil), that's a lot!
I assume this loss is mostly due to oil getting "trapped" in the plant matter, and without industrial pressing equipment, that's where it's going to stay. I use cheesecloth and a citrus press which works pretty well, but obviously not perfectly.
My question is this: how should I be, mathematically, accounting for this fluid loss? I input my numbers into scientificedibles to get my dosages - should I be calculating my dosage based on the 3 ounces of oil I may end up with, even though I put 4 in? Should I be adding an extra ounce of oil so that I end up with 4 at the end and calculate based on 4? Unfortunately, I know that without lab testing, it's hard to actually know, but I'd love to know if anyone is aware of any research on this or has personal experience.
And as a side question, does anyone have any tips for losing less oil? A single ounce of lost oil for this batch right now is 1200mg of THC lost. I would love to make that number lower so I'm not wasting as much.
Had a little sweating on the limes at first but left them out another 24 hours and resanded which is why there are some lager sugar crystals on them. Very happy with the results though :)
I long ago learned to use Alcohol and a Rice-Cooker and I’m still used to do so. No chance for Butter because of the smell, Alc is not the big problem - no plant parts, less smell, except the Alc. This is the result of ~100gr offcuts, trim, popcorn buds. Now mixed to 400ml coconut oil.
I have a good amount of 160 micron bubble hash left. Any ideas what to create? Looking for new recipes and ideas :)
Making my first tincture -> feco and its still super watery at the late stage of evaporation. Going to run through my process please please let me know if its completely over or okay so the panic can be over.
day 1: 28g 20% bud (wasnt super dry initially but left it for a bit before use), coffee grinded, decarbed for ~45mins at 110c, mason jar with a decent bit more than enough ethanol to cover, simmered in pot for ~30mins between 64c and 72c, stored for 24h open but covered by mesh filter.
day 2: This is where I'm at now. Trying to reduce into feco that i can turn into an mct tinc. Shook before straining (realising this is dumb now. also seem to have not strained properly as theres what looks like kief in the bottom of my mason jar...), same water bath situation, been evaporating for about 4.5h and im kind of freaked that it hasnt gotten 'syrupy' or noticeably thicker at the later stage of evaporation.
My suspicions: -Bud was still kinda green after decarb, but went with it because I'd given it plenty of time and then some?
-Coffee grinder removed too many trichomes leading to there being nothing to thicken up?
-Too much ethanol?
-Sediment has ruined it?
Whats still in jar (~50ml out of 350 - 350ml post simmer, originally about 420ml) still smells like ethanol. Really just want to know if the potency has still been increasing even without much change to texture. I consume weed medically, unprescribed (uk), and dont have £150 to burn like this, please give me good news!!!
ps still evaporating in hope that something happens..
Asked a similar question in a previous post but only got one answer… hoping for more this time🤞
I ate 3 gummies No effect Only got high from edis once and get no luck anymore any tips besides antacid ?

I’ve been making THC oil for years now using a crock pot and coconut oil. But my oil is always black/brown in color. How do I get the oil to look clearer and purer like some of the posts I see on this sub? Thanks
So for about 2 weeks i felt really off and had a nose drip often but was never bedridden. Definitely was effecting my thinking and my emotions were a bit off too. One of the days I was super lethargic at work and I remember struggling to lift anything. I could still lift, it was just harder than usual. Also I was forgetting things and dropping things more than usual. I clearly wasn't my usual self. Most likely was fighting whatever was attacking my immune system. On top of everything I remember having to drink about 3-4cups of coffee a day to keep up and I normally have 1-2 cups of coffee a day. In those two weeks I had to up my dose for edibles. I was normally taking 25mg THC 25mg CBD and 60mg CBN. When I felt off I had to use 100mg THC 100mg CBD and 120mg CBN. Mind you this was only after dinner for sleep. i dont use cannabis during the day. So i was highly confused as to why I had to increase my dose for my edibles when Ive been taking the same dose for months and I also only use cannabis after dinner. Now I am back to normal, thankfully. But Im at 50mg THC 50mg CBD and 90mg CBN right now and i 100% have to decrease my dose again as I got blasted. To note I am using all of the same edibles of the same batch from when I was sick and not sick. I also have been making my own edibles for years and have never changed the recipe or supplier of the RSO. Everything has been the same from the Get-Go so that's why I am so confused on what happened. By the way I don't smoke anything or vape. I just use edibles. Anyone have an idea what happened or if there is information on this already? I'm sure im not the only one who has experienced this!?
