I'm going to eat bud this weekend, and I'm wondering how.

I know brownies is the best way to go, cooking butter and oil up together, but I think I might be too lazy for that.

I've heard firecrackers work, which is using peanut butter and crackers microwaved.

Has anybody here used this technique, and if so, how much should I use, how long to microwave, etc? I want the experience to be psychadelic, more than just high. I'm thinking a half to a full gram, but I'm not sure. A full gram might be a little intense

Thougths, comments?

You grind the weed using a weed grinder (if you're a major stoner) or a coffee grinder in a pinch. You melt the butter in a pan, and throw the ground weed into the butter. Then you cook the butter as hot as you can without burning it (that's about medium heat, but make sure to pay close attention to how much heat you're putting in. You definitely don't want to burn the butter. After 20-25 minutes, the butter should acquire a brownish color (not a burned brown, mind you), after which you strain the plant filter out using a coffee filter or equivalent (I prefer to use a fine mesh pasta strainer I have, but whatever you have to strain will work). Some argue that you should keep the plant material i the butter for whatever thc might be left in it, but the common opinion is that if you've cooked it right the butter will have all of the thc and the plant material is useless and cashed (like ash).

Then you substitute the butter for whatever recipe you want.

I guess what I'm going to do is make butter and put it on toast, so I can make a small amount of butter and carefully control how much I use. And I do so love my buttered toast

Determining the amount is really the trickiest part . . . the part that I'm having trouble with myself.

Unlike smoking, where you can always stop when you feel high enough or take another toke, eating takes 30-60 minutes to set in, so you can't really just eat a little more the same way. Therefore it's important to get your dosage right the first time, but with the wildly variable quality of weed, it's hard to predict.

The way I think of it is that I want to eat twice as much as I can smoke in one sitting. If you follow that rule, you are going to get absolutely annhilated, but that's part of the goal for me. I can get higher by eating than I possibly can be smoking (the vaps are really close as well).

About your question, the recommendation I tend to see is 1/8-1/4 of an ounce per stick of butter. So with four sticks of butter, you could cook up a pretty strong ounce. Or you could toss a whole ounce into two sticks and reduce by half the amount you need to eat. It sounds like your stuff is junk, so I would just do that.

and $150 an ounce x.X. Man, I've been paying $40 an O for my schwag.

question:

do you guys ever have to spit alot when burning?

weed usually gives people dry mouth, but when i toke i get a ton of saliva in my mouth, that i have to spit out (tastes bad). if i have a drink with me thats fine, but no one else i know is the same, and its pretty gross :s

This is better than middies or dirt actually. Like a gram was more than enough to get 4 people ripped last week. I could prolly get cheaper, but not 40$/ oz =[

And i know what you mean about how it's hard to determine doses. The first time we made brownies, we used a whole ounce of good shit. (like $275/oz) Had one brownie and didnt feel anything after 30 min. Didnt think I had enough so I had a second... and then a third. I still didnt really anything other than a slight buzz from drinking, so I decided I was gonna go hang out with this girl from school. 30 min later, we sparked a blunt and I went to the kitchen to get a drink and promptly fell flat on my ass trying to sit up from the bed. GG after that.

lol, that's a really really bad idea. You always wait for it to hit you before determining if you need more.
