Several things I’ve found whilst cooking with cannabis:
I've sprinkled bud over a piece of bread with cheese and cooked it in the microwave. I ate it and had no effects at all. I've found that the cannabis does indeed need to be heated up to be activated.
What I do is take 1/4 a cup full of bud (sorry I don't know weights when it comes to bud). Chop it coarsely.
Melt around 4 tablespoons of butter, place the bud in the butter. Simmer on a low heat for around 10 minutes. Make sure not to burn the butter.
I then take a 'make at home' cookie mix and substitute the butter required in that with my special butter. Cook as per directions.
Now the actual experience.
You will get extremely stoned compared to the amount you do through smoking. Take it easy, test a batch of cookies before diving in and eating three of them. THC overdose in a unpleasant experience and one which I don't want to repeat (I sat in my bed crying thinking I was in hell).
I start to notice some effects after around +1 hours. Things intensify and the peak is around +2 hours. I become impaired and unable to do most things until around +5 hours. I then start to comedown. I’ve noticed that I will be stoned even after 9 hours of sleep and find the whole experience lasting around sometimes +18 hours! So planning a time is essential.
Eating is completely different stoned and I suggest every person to try it.
