no dont put them under your toungue, you will waste them. the THC has to be activated by heat or else it wont work.

smoke them!!!

How can that be true..........if you eat it ..it will get you high.

but I would still smoke it.

You have to bake it in something with butter or another fat-based food.

i thought you could just eat it aswell...

The reason i thought people used fat was so that the thc could be absorbed. But i did not think that was the only way you could eat it.

Take the crystals, fold them in half, and place them under a chair for the night. By morning, your hat should be all broken in!!!

hash melts under your tongue so why wouldn't crystals? granted you may have to hold em there for a while but it dissolves.

For all those still not grasping it, THC HAS TO BE HEATED TO ACTIVATE!
When you bake brownies, cupcakes, bread, or anything else, the oven you cook it in is heating the cannabis (or cannabutter more than likely) and releasing the THC into your food. If you eat a straight bud, you will not get high, if you do it is a placebo high. Straight trichomes and hairs are called kif, they make devices called kif catchers which do nothing but get the kif off your bud. If you smoke kif, it is a much more potent high. So, just smoke it.

dur!!!!!!!!!! are you all fucking reptiles or summin, body tempreture inside is hotter than it is outside Especially in your stomach. if you eat it, it will get you stoned, but it'll take longer to.

This is the problem with the internet, there's no control over people posting information that they 'believe' to be correct, if the guy asking the questions listened to half the people here he'd be wasting kif,

98.6 degrees F is not hot enough to release Delta 9 THC or Delta 8 THC.
So.... duuuuuuurrrrrr!!!! yourself.

I donâ??t doubt the people that say the THC needs to be heat activated but my question is this:

There comes a point when the heat would become too great. Wouldnâ??t it burn off the THC?

How do you know when you have enough heat and how do you know when you have too much?

Cookies bake at about 350 degrees....wow.

i think its 150C when weed become active...being from the uk i dont know what this is in F...but im going to find out what happens.....

because...you bake cookies right....then leave them to cool down before youeat them....so the weed isnt as hot as it needs to be to activate the THC...or when you cook it does the THC stay active??

im going to see if I can find out.

likemclever

01-11-2006, 04:42 PM

I would think that once activated it would be stored in the butter or shortening (or other fats) in the cookies......kind of like weed butter.

ok so i googled it and...it looks like you cant eat raw weed....the only person who sounded like he actually knew what he was talking about (when talking about raw weed having effects) was Nullific
however this site is the only place i could find out info on raw weed....so seeing as no-one else thinks you can....im going to go with the general consensus and say....i dont THINK you can eat raw weed....(im going to try one day for myself though)

"Feb-25-2005, 20:16
It doesn't NEED to be heat 'activated', when marijuana is heated as in cooking a process called decarboxylization occurs in which a carboxyl (COOH) group is destroyed leaving a form of THC more appropriate for GI absorbtion. You can get effects from eating raw cannabis, you would just need to eat more of it."

either way it seems to be a waste of weed......so smoke it :D:D:D:D

Yeah, i think thats how it would work. I mean, if you just got a normal ordinary bud and lit it, it would just burn and waste the THC. So i guess the THC would be escaping by the smoke? So the butter or w/e must absorb the activated THC and store it. Like you said.

I wanna try a food high some time :)

it doesnt need to be heated to get "activated" LMFAO

no shit you can..the only reason ppl heat it in oil or butter bfore they cook it into cookies is because that extracts the THC

no chemical becomes "active" at certain temperatures...however, at certain temperatures it may break down and become something else

some ppl on these boards need to pass high schoo chem. :thumbsup:

THANK YOU! thc isnt "activated" by butter. THC is SOLUABLE in butter. take a freakin chemistry class people. your body will still ABSORBE it, it just wont burn it. i've eaten buds before and gotten high, so dont tell me it needs to be "activated"

stangle12

01-11-2006, 06:43 PM

the reason you use butter or oil to bake with is becuase the THC is highly soluable in fat and alcohol. thats why when you make hash...you can use pure alcohol. Solubility is completly different from the way your body digest things. If you put it under your toung, or eat it. the acids in your saliva and bile in your stomac will break down the structures of the crystals until they are small enough to be absorbed into the blood streem (your lungs do the same thing when you enhale it....puts it into the blood streem)

My bad I thought we were having a discussion.

I believe the term â??activatedâ? was being used loosely (as in it wonâ??t do you any fucking good if you donâ??t heat it)â?¦..perhaps extracted would have been a better choice of words your right.

Chemistry was never my thing I went the biology route instead so excuse me if my apparent ignorance is causing any of you problems.

How about this? How about not repeating the exact same thing the person before you said. Iâ??m sure you read it. After all this is your thread.

Iâ??ll consider taking chemistry if you consider taking a course in manners.

The thc is 'active' when eaten, but is far less potent. You'd have to eat a hell of a lot of thc crystals to get it to work, whereas smoking them would 'release'/'extract' the extra potency so to speak.

Heat activated my ass, eat anything that has THC in it and you will get stoned, THC does NOT need to be heat activated, and even if it does your stomach will have enough heat to heat it to a temperature where it is activated.
