I'm experimenting with batches of 1 gram. I don't have the luxury on wasting a ton of weed on cannabutter. I guess I'll see which method gets me most out of one gram and then scale that up the next time.
Just ate a sandwich with my most recent batch that still had the flower in there and everything. Tastes like crap. Absolutely horrible. Will report back.
EDIT: Meh.
I decarbed it now the same way I did yesterday but after that I put it in butter and double boiler for 2 hours. I'll see if I notice any difference to yesterday. If not, next time I'll probably just skip the decarb and go straight into the double boiler and hope that few hours in 100 degree C (212F) butter is enough to decarb it.
This is what I don't get. There's enormous differences in the instructions I'm getting when I try googling for instructions and I have no idea which ones to trust. This doesn't seem like the kind of question that there is no right answer to.
I guess that's possible but I do get high from them. It's just that my intention is to go explore the moon but I just end up staring at the launch pad. My GF has had very similar experience with them which is why I tend to feel like the issue is the edibles themselves, not me.
How much and how often do you normally smoke? I typically roll around 0.4g in my joints and that'll get me at [4] at best so my tolerances are quite high.
My understanding has been as well that the THC needs to be infused with oil for it to work optimally and simply just eating decarbed weed would be inefficient. However the recipe I used this time insisted that just eating it with something fatty would be enough.

Don't worry, I'm relatively satisfied with my life and have no desire in ending it. I'm just in the lonely chapter of my life where I've outgrown my old friend group but haven't yet found the new ones. I don't consider AI my friend. It's just something to bounce my esoteric thoughts off.
Lucky? I thought the 12 week limit and need for 2 doctor statements after that was outrageous.
I mean the pro-life stance is clear in the sense that they generally don’t accept abortion unless the mother’s life is in danger. So when someone is 'pro-life,' I know what that means. However, when someone says they’re 'pro-choice,' I don’t always know what they mean. I’ve assumed most people draw the line somewhere around three months, after which you’d need a medical reason and a doctor’s statement to proceed. But based on the replies I’ve gotten here, that doesn’t seem to be the case. Many seem to suggest that no such lines should be drawn at all and even go as far as calling the baby a parasite, which seems a bit crazy to me to put it lightly.
I know such lines are arbitrary and there's no practical difference between one day and another but what seems obvious to me is that a total ban and allowing it at 8 months for any other that a serious medical reason are both equally extreme stances and the 'truth' is there somewhere in between.
Then have the child and give it up for adoption? If you don’t want to keep it, you can freely abort it until, say, 12 weeks, after which you’d need a medical reason and a statement from one or two doctors. I don’t see what the issue is here.
I’m not saying this is exactly how it should be, but something along those lines. The idea that someone should be free to abort a 7-month-old fetus if they choose seems quite extreme to me.
Maybe I should’ve been more specific - I meant the point after which you need to consult a doctor to go ahead with an abortion. I think most people agree that a fetus just a few weeks old is barely a living thing, so aborting it is hardly different from, cumming in a sock. However, there is a point after which we’re no longer talking about a lump of cells but a sentient being, and to me at least, it seems reasonable that after that point, you’d need a medical reason to do it.
Where I’m from, that line is at 12 weeks. Until then, you’re free to do it for whatever reason you want. The unwillingness to draw any line like that means they'd be okay aborting an 8 month old too even for financial reasons and that just sounds fucking insane to me.
I don’t know what hellhole you live in, but where I’m from, doctors don’t arbitrarily deny abortions to someone whose life is in danger. The reason you need a second opinion is because you had three months to decide whether you want to keep it or not. If it’s been more than that, the child is already so far developed that you’ll need a medical reason to abort it, and at that point, 'I changed my mind' is no longer a good enough reason to end the life of a living, feeling being. Also, after that point you generally also need surgery to remove the dead fetus.
Yeah I guess that 50 minutes around 115C would be close to optimal. The heat on my oven fluctuates a lot so I need to use a digital thermometer to monitor and babysit it constantly. It varies between 110C and 125C when done this way so I'd assume that in less than an hour most of it would be converted.
