So I've been interested in making some Green Dragon, and I was wondering what kind of ratios (weed to alcohol) people use to make this stuff.

Please be specific, i.e., 1 gram to an ounce. After the ratio I would appreciate if you gave a description of the effects, i.e., "more high than drunk" or "an even drunk/high balance"



As a side note, what is all this talk of decarboxylization, and is it necessary?
 
lol, if you ground up 1/2 ounce of Kush.
and put that into 500ML of alcohol. 151 Bacardi or 151 Jamican rum.

you'd be fucked.
 
Fucked after what?

If I drank the 500 ml of 151 bacardi id be fucked.

or 1/2 ounce of weed lol
 
well, 2 shots of that would definitly send you into space.
a differently than just smoking the weed
or drinkin the alcohol.

Green Dragon or Bhang, is when you ferment your marijuana into some high proof, high grade alcohol, for a mixture of them both.
 
I've made 'Green Dragon' before. I put about 7-10grams of Dank into a bottle of that Grain Alcohol (which is like 99% alcohol) and then put the bottle in my closet for about 2weeks and took it out and strained the weed out. By the end of the two weeks the grain alcohol had gone from being completely clear liquid to a very marijuana green liquid. I am not a big alcohol drinker so I didn't really have enuff to feel any marijuana effects but a couple friends had a good amount of it and enjoyed it.. U just gotta have the weed to waste on it to make it.
 
That site made me sad. 15-45 mins for a bong hit to PEAK!? Holyshit! After 15minutes the high is gone not peaking. I think id rather get punched in the face instead of hearing a "stoner" say it takes you 45mins to get high after a bong rip.
 
The first reply hit the nail on the head. Use half an ounce of some high wuality bud to 500 ml of grain alcohol. However you should let it sit for far longer than 2 weeks. It will increase in potency for quite a while. However thats not to say you cant have a little taste here an there along the way. A quality dragon with ample time to macerate will produce a full on psychedelic high with half a shot, any more than that and your shit is rather weak.
 
i thought of a ratio for some killer green dragon tell me what you think
1/4 oz of dro per 1/2 cup of everclear. expensive but worth it
i havent had time to try this yet but i was wondering it you guys think that will be some potent shit?
and how much do you think would get you fucked?
 
something everyone neglected: for marijuna to be active orally, decarboxylation is necessary. stick your shit in the oven on aroun 170 for like an hour THEN let it steep in alcohol. or just eat the bud, i like the taste
 
For thc to be active it needs to be absorbed into something that will allow your body to process it better (fat or alcohol), heat is not necessary.
 
^^This seems to be the common disagreement. Could one of you post some sources?

Is it possible that when you heat the butter+weed for a fat-based solution, that decarboxylizes the THC?

No matter what anything says I can guarantee that is not true as could plenty of others. I've consumed weed orally without being cooked on a multitude of occasions and aside from taking a long time to kick in, it works great. Very long lasting stone too.
 
This is a jar of sugar leaf I ground up, I can't tell you the exact amount but it'll give you a good idea. I put about half or maybe a little less, into a 750ml bottle of 151. It will look like it all won't fit into the bottle with the liquid inside, but the plant material soaks up quite a bit of liquid and will surprise you with how much you can get in there. I would then let the bottle sit in my closet for about a week, shaking it vigorously multiple times a day. Just sit down and watch the TV for a while and continue shaking it for a while. Then I get a funnel and place a fine mesh strainer on top of a folded paper towel into the funnel (the strainer doesn't have to fit in the funnel as long as you sit it on top) and very SLOWLY start pouring out the liquid/plant material. I usually only let a good amount of plant material to collect on the strainer then take it out and set it aside in a tupperware container. Once you have collected all the liquid/plant material, I usually wring out the soaked paper towel into the funnel, then replace it with a new paper towel in the funnel, and wrap the left over plant material in a couple of paper towels (or cheese cloth works even better but not everyone has this on hand) and squeeze the remaining liquid out of the plant material.

I will take half a shot to a shot of this and get very high. It is a very strong high if you use good plant material to begin with. The aroma/taste isn't going to be the best considering it is 151 infused with cannabis, and it tastes exactly as that sounds, very herby.

I hope this all made sense!

Great post.

Does anyone ever make this stuff with the intention of getting drunk and high, not just high?
