First of all. I know there are kids here, but i started smoking weed when i was 14, and started smoking cigarettes right after that. Now, 12 years later, is really hard to quit smoking cigarettes, i think i could never started smoking cigarettes if my first time on weed was a cake.

Why eating weed instead of smoking it?
The answer is really simple and can be resumed in just one word:
THC is lyposoluble
But what does it means?
I dont want to talk in technical languaje, so i just will tell you that the only thing that makes you high when you consume weed (THC) mix homogenously with oil.
Therefore, you can extract almost all the THC from the weed by a process that i will describe later.
Other big diference between ingesting weed and smoking it is that your lungs are closer to the blood (of course, this is not correct at all, but the idea behind it is ok) than your stomach.
I'm telling that, when you eat something everything goes trough your liver before entering your blood. When you smoke everything goes from the lungs to the blood directly. Your lungs filter a little bit, but you end up smoking more than just THC with all the withdrawls to smoking, like irritation, lowering your breath capacity, you just get the whole pack.
Therefore eating it is usually healthier.
Some comparisons shows that while smoking takes effect after 30-90 seconds, when you eat it the effect appears from 20 to 90 minutes after.
The duration of smoked weed is about 2-4 hours, while eaten is more like 4-8.
The dosis for this numbers are something like 2 mg for smoking and 2.5 mg for eating.
Of course, all of the above numbers depends on the weed quality.
Ok, lets get into it now.
Cannabis Butter
This is the first process of all. Is a really good one, because you could make a good amount last for a really long time. I use to make like 400 gr of butter when I travel, and I use it to cook, with bread in the morning, etc.
You could use just leaves, we are going to extract almost all of the thc from it, so it will still be strong.
I often mix 1 part of leaves with 1 part of female flower.
We will need
utils
1 big pot
1 small pot
1 strainer
1 wooden spoon
ingredients
5 gr. of weed
250 gr. of butter
In the big pot with boiling water put the small pot dry with the butter inside.
Let it melt with a slow fire. If you use a cheap butter is a good thing to clean it.
For that we will use the wooden spoon. On the top of the melted butter you will see a layer of thin opaque fat. Take it away and throw it. We will just keep the oil.
Now we will add the weed and let it be there for about half an hour, stirring from time to time. Be carefull of the boiling water below, remember to lower the flame, and if is it to hot grab the big pot some inches above the flame.
After that half hour we will turn it off and take the small pot out of the big one.
Let it cold for about 5 minutes. With the strainer take out the leaves and put it in some square mold.
Let it cold again and put it on the fridge.
Tomorrow you could have a great breakfast. with your 200 gr of weed butter.
weed flour
This recipe is from a friend of mine. Never heard before until he told me about it. It is great, because you can cook things like pancakes, things i used to believe couldn't be done.
We will need:
utils
1 stone mortar
1 sieve
ingredients
cannabis leaves
We will use just leaves, this is a perfect way of using these subrated litle green things.
If you dont know what a mortar is...
If you dont have one you could use two big stones. Clean them carefully.
For this you need the leaves as dry as they can get. Here we crop in april-may, i do this flour like in june-july.
For all of this time i had the leaves in some place dry and with enough ventilation.
You could accelerate the process by toasting the leaves, but i just wait.
Just use the mortar on the leaves to grind it. Then you take out all the fiber in it with a sieve.
This is a sieve:
You can use this on every recipe that contain flour. I mix 2 parts of flour with 1 of weed flour.
Some recomendations
Always remember that digested weed takes longer and last longer. So BE CAREFULL. It's usual for newbs to weed cooking, to eat to much because "they are not high"
Be patient and wait, or you will be so high that you could get paranoid.
Never trick someone into eating weed without knowing. Even for a regular smoker the things could get out of control, because the up is so slow that you really sometimes think that you cant get higher, but you do.
Test your doses always. Start from the bottom and wait for the next day.
Sometimes you could get a hangover in the next day. It usually goes away by smoking weed. If you eat you will be fine, but you will get the hangover the next day.
Always be responsible. Don't eat if you are going to drive in the next few hours.
Thats all folks!

yea.....so who's getting high?
|
So easy to do too much when eating, so you are guaranteed to get high as long as you have an empty stomach. Best part is munchies are covered by more weed brownies.
I've made weed butter, brownies, rice crispy treats... You name it.
Imagine you set off to go to school and you make yourself toast with cheese and weedbutter. Mmmmmm.

We heated up milk in a pot and threw some weed in. We let it simmer for about 30 minutes then added the milk to ice cream and made weed milkshakes. Unfortunately we did something wrong, or I have a strong liver, because I didn't feel a THING and I drank a looooooot.
Perhaps you need something that is more fatty like butter?
|
Yes fats isolate the THC while the food is being prepared. Hence baked goods and things that are created through heat such as butter are the best option.
|
This was surprisingly educational. Thanks.
|
Woooo a few days until I get more weed in the mail lol.
Will probably blag some cookies with pics. Nice post BRAH

Another way to bypass the liver is to put the weed into your butt.
|
Wow this is really nice, even tho i will never try it. Very thorough.

Yes.

^ Yes. Go make a sober thread and stay out.

Yay! A great blog in the blog section! for once! And written by a guy with great taste in music!

I always wanted to make weed butter, but never have. When I was in high school we use to just throw our leaves in some cooking oil on the stove and heat it for about 30 minutes. It works really well if you want to make cookies.

I didn't really read the whole thing, but reading the explanations and the recipes was pretty funny. This actually sounds like a fairly decent idea.

The only problem with eating weed is this:
Medical talk incoming:
If you eat something it passes through "first pass" metabolism. IE, it goes through your stomach and liver. While it is in there- destructive enzymes can lower the dosage, and do a number of other metabolic changes to your substance of choice. So really it can kind of be a mystery as to how much of a drug you are actually receiving.
Other than that little thing- all is good

sry about the 2x post- but isn't a vaporizer the best thing? iirc it really leaves nothing harmful in the vapor- and inhaling it really has no appreciable side effects, like lung cancer ext...

I am going to add my milk preparation. I didnt before because I wanted to play. Let me tell you, in my opinion you need to boild the milk for longer time than half an hour. I reduce the milk to the half before removing the weed, so is thick and green. The milk is stronger than the butter, but you need way more weed for that.
Now i have a great idea. Why dont you post your own weed recipes and i keep updating the OP like a huge compendium? pretty sure some awesome things could appear!

You should try it!
It deppends much on the variety. Some (indiga) are very iron heavy and taste like soft spinach, those are great for cooking meals. Others (sativa) are little sweet. Good with deserts and chocolate

for some reason i found this post hilarious 5/5

I am not a biologist, so i know this things just for reading drug literature and recipes like escohotado, hoffman, etc. Drugs are one of my many hobbies... but could you descrive the chemic part in the liver? wich enzyme should destroy the THC and why? I think it shouldnt be such a mystery, but actually i dont know much about it.

Thank you for the arbiter love.
Vaporizers are awesome in terms of efficiency (how much weed you need to get high) and in terms of portability (can smoke it while driving no problem no coppers). However even though it is vapor I have found that I cough a lot more from vaporizers. Also the bulb overheating and the lighter getting annoying if you have no torch are issues to note. Sometimes it's just better to light up a blunt with your bros or pass that bowl around.

Vapes are great for anyone who wants to eliminate all of the other shit they would otherwise be inhaling by conventional combustion, and they are more efficient, as far as I've learned. Homemade lightbulb vape is my pride and joy ;3
But yeah, I only use them indoors relaxing, because it's just easier to use a bowl on the go.

Driving with a vap is safer imo in terms of dealing with the law, because the vapors do not smell like weed. Bowl is instant haze in your car.
I prefer vapes for solo smokes, bowl/blunt/bong for group.

We never drive high though lol.
We are always walking around town all day all night

Driving high is no different if you're a person who can stay on their toes when high and if you are experienced both in driving and smoking. Sometimes it's just so good to get high before you go snowboarding on the mountain that it's impossible to pass up.

I'm not saying we avoid driving, I'm just saying that we have always enjoyed just walking around through the town/woods as the best time-passer.

Yea that's awesome too, or it was until I became too lazy to walk 1 block to McDonalds and now opt to go through drive-through. Basically walking has been ruined for me, at least until I am forced to get back to better shape.

Well, I'm dry until I get more weed in the mail from friends in NY lol. So I'll take this no job/no school/no weed modivation to work out alot. New town, no connect.
FML.

Go out and meet people man. Sitting at home waiting for weed is boring. Smoking weed alone is even worse. Life is out there, go rape it (:
I'm going to sleep, nice talking to you, night~
|
i smoke weed alone a lot. And is not boring if you have something to do.
The real problem is when you have nothing to do and you smoke everyday. I was like 1 year smoking everyday. I woke up and meet a friend and we went to buy weed. Then we smoke, cook and smoke. We did nothing in the whole year and she turn into an ugly girl... I remember the time, but i cant remember the facts.
Go on, post me your recipes!
|
Smoking weed alone is okay if you are still going out and doing shit. The problem with smoking weed alone is that it takes away motivation for you to go out and meet people and shit.
