Ingested 300 mg THC from dispensary as I had a tooth pulled and am trying not to get drt socket ,

30 minutes -- light effects, starting to stop thinking of ways to push smoke into my lungs instead of inhaling. (gravity bong is the answer)

45 Minutes -- Tv becoming watchable again, slight burn on the back of my throat, Has lemonade.

90 minutes -- Pretty sure peak affects have hit. It is alot more of a body buzz than smoking but somehow less satisfying overall. Noticing myself leaning back in chairs and muscles relaxing a bit (not in a muscle relaxer way obviously). Arthritis in knee seems to be almost gone. May be better orally for pain or maybe I am just looking for differences.

If anything changes I'll update. If not it was a good body buzz that made TV palatable and I have music'd myself to death so that is good. .
I will note that it is not nearly as pronounced as when .5-.7 THC/A, decarbed, .3-4; added to virgin olive oil and peanut butter. Something is missing compared to that but it is good.

I've noticed that. Wondering if it is the ROA (5-hydroxy) or the secondary cannabinoids, but edibles never really hit that spot. I've noticed that just a couple hits off the pipe make it all good though. And that lasts.

Were you able to take a hit or two with that THCA?

Yes indeed. Of course I broke down who are we kidding. Tried carts but more distillate still not hitting spot. One joint and goodnight.
 
I like to buy a zip for the discount and decarb it to make my own edibles. I'm a vocal advocate for sous vide decarb to not only prevent stinking up the place but also to preserve as much of the volatile compounds as possible. You get a really nice full spectrum edible with sous vide decarb flower

Way way way cheaper than buying edibles and even concentrates from the dispensary

Do you boil it, or bake it? If boiling, for how long?
 
Sous vide, in a plastic bag or sealed canning jar submerged in water just below boiling for 2-4 hours. I find bags work well because you can get all the air out and it's easier to heat up. Being sealed means nothing can escape but with a jar some volatiles may be deposited on the surface of the jar

Submerged in just below boiling water says you? I will do that next time as my returns are a bit less than what I feel I should get. Closer to 60% from THC/A than 87%. Usually use "full spectrum" hash diamonds at 90% THC/A small percentages of terps. Could go 100% but than no 'full spectrum'. (I expect the "full spectrum' is a bit of a misnomer unless you are starting with rosin, than your yields with by far smaller and cost far higher)


Are you using shake or can you afford to do that with good weed? I dont care at all I am just wondering if I could get by with shake as that is what my budget provides lol.

I was wondering because of the 212°F temp limit on boiling water. So, 2-4 hours works well with that? I'll be trying that next time I decarb. 👍
 
Yea and you can always run an experimental to find your best time. Split like an eighth into 4-8 smaller portions in separate bags and start them at the same time in the same sous vide bath but remove them at different time intervals, like 1 every 15 minutes starting at 2 hours. Label them with their times when dry and test em out individually.

Also when using bags you'll want a way to weight them down and keep them submerged, a metal grate over the top of all of them should work

What do you mean by returns? I'm only talking about decarbing flower and making edibles directly with the flower. I use cheap good weed, oz of popcorn buds is usually pretty good price and quality
 
I mean I am using "THC/A Full Spectrum Diamonds" at 93% THC/(A?) I have to believe because it requires decarbing.

For every gram I usually get about a .6-.75 return. which is about right I suppose but I hope for more like us all lol.
 
Diamonds are (mostly) pure THCA which is why it can crystallize like that. I think historically they were made using chromatography but not sure rn. Calling diamonds full spectrum is really weird to me, sure some put them in sauce which can contain other cannabiboids but the diamonds themselves likely only contain very small amounts. Even shatter is closer to full spectrum than diamonds.

The decarb ratio for 100% pure THC calculated from molar masses is 0.877. This means that 100% decarb of 1 gram of 100% THCA would get you 0.877g THC so I think your yield is pretty reasonable

314.469 gmol-1 / 358.478 gmol-1 = 0.877
 
aye ^ that is actually the exact way I found out how molar mass affects yield.. In a very simple example.

lol my limited brain sees chemistry as close to alchemy as one can get but dangerous chemicals and inexperience = risk. Still I grasp what I can where I can.

so 87% maximum but its only 93% THC/A (lets work with 90 lol) so that is a 78% maximum yield. Yea I think I got it about as good as its gunna get without getting weird about it and without prohibition I would have no reason too. Hooray for LEGALITY.
