just baking a nug in tin-foil then eating it..

[ballllin]

...my friend told me it works, altho it may not be that efficient.

what u do:

wrap a nug inside tinfoil
then light up all sides of the tinfoil till the weed turns dark brown
now u just throw it on a sandwich or whatever, and u'll get high.


should i try this??

[savagepossum]

yep this is a tried and tested method works great, you should definitly try this

[Nochowderforyou]

No, don't try this. Your friend is dumb too by the way.

Cannabis needs to be cooked into something high in fat in order to get you high (eating it).

Burning a nug inside a piece of tinfoil then eating it is just, well, dumb. :p That will just burn away, so tell your friend to cram it and be quiet.

[Cyclonite]

I don't know...it really just needs the temp increase if you wanted to eat it straight up. I think it would work.

fats and oils are just used because the THC isn't water soluble...you dont need to dissolve it to get high though

[Nochowderforyou]

If you want it to work to your advantage, yes, it has to be cooked into something in order for your body to digest it.

That's like eating a raw bud. It will barely get you high, and that's a complete waste.

[MrNiceGuy420]

no....thc doesnt need to be absorbed into anything to be digested and get you high it just needs to be heated, it should work. the only reason youd usually make weed butter or weed oil is so it fits into a recipe, i mean yeah you could just put some ground up weed in a brownie and it would most likely get you high

[Nocturnal Stoner]

well there's only one way to find out really, try it and give us a report if you got high or not, don't use that much though cause it could be a waste, use about 0.5g.

[lazy smoker7]

actually dont think it will work because i think the thc will heat up and be vaped into the air with out it being able to be relased into any fat and instead the thc wil just fly away.. i dunno for sure.. try it and tell us how it went

[ballllin]

u think i can get high off .5 g off of this method?? usually i get high off of vapin .3 g.


i'm gonna try to sometimes this week, i'll get back to y'all :)

[Cyclonite]

Im certain it just need the right temp(The cooking part) and nothing else...dissolving it doesn't change it chemically the temps do though.

LOL the THC wont fly away unless you fry it...pop it in on 200 F for 10min. Grind it up first.

Iv used shake and dumped some into a brownie mix and it worked really really good.

[Kid Dynamite]

double post, oops

[Kid Dynamite]

No offence to spastics, but that idea is spasticated...

if you just want to eat weed on its own, then dont bother fucking baking it in tin foil. Just eat the fucking nug raw.

Better still put some effort in and cook something like muffins or cookies, then you can actually enjoy eating your weed, and it'll be a lot more potent...


peace out

[ballllin]

yesterday. i tried it. IT WORKS.

i used .6 g of REALLY dank weed, put it in tinfoil and "baked" it with a lighter on all sides. i did it till the weed was just slightly brown. i was worried kuz i could see the weed vaporizing,so i thought the THC would be lost. anyways, i kept at it till it was slightly brown.

then near the end of skool, i went to the bathroom and just ate that shit straight from the tin foil and chewed and swallowed. i had a bottle of water with me in case it tasted so bad i had to swallow it, but it wasn't that bad. just crunchy. at the end i took some gulps of water. this was at 12:40 PM.

then i was pissed kuz i couldn't feel anything for a while.
then around 2:00 PM i felt the normal high u get, and i was oh so happy.
then by 3:00 PM i felt the most intense highs of my life. that intensity lasted from like 3 o'clock till 6-ish when i pretty much passed out while lyin on my bed. my eyes didn't even get bloodshot till 5, which was when i couldn't even tell my body what to do.

most intense body high of my life. i've never felt my body respond that way (i usually always vape). i'm sure it would've last for at least several more hours if i didn't fall dead asleep.


so to summarize
i ate it at 12:40
it hit slowly at 2:00
and lasted till i passed out at 6:00
and i KNO it would've lasted me much more.


DEFINITELY recommended. i'm thinkin this is THE easiest way to ingest weed, no cooking involved. and it works.

if u have any questions, post'em.

Not true, if you eat it straight you'll get fucked up lol :hippy:

[ballllin]

dude that is fucking awsome dude I am going to try that as soon as i get home from school. If I do this will it stink up my room? Also, does the bud have to be completly sealed? does it have to sit for a while b4 u eat it?



it won't stick up ur room that much, much less than smokin it. there still will be some smell (kuz of the vapor) but not too bad. have a febreeze or sumthing handy.

when i had my weed in the tinfoil, i did my best to try to seal it up. of course it won't be 100% sealed, but try ur best. i made like rectangle-shaped, flat tinfoil thing with the weed spread out to get max surface area to bake it.

and i doubt u have to let it sit for a while at all. after it's baked, anytime after it is good enough.

man.. it worked wonders.

[ballllin]

^ that looks pretty good. just use a lil more than what u usually use to get high.

i can get high off .3 grams usually, but i usually use about .5 gram.
for the baking, i tried .6 grams.. so just use however much u usually use.

[Weedhound]

I'll take eating over any other way to ingest weed. Much MUCH more kick-ass longer lasting high. Another easy recipe: A joints worth sprinkled on a peanut-butter cracker. microwave for 10-30 secs (depending on your wave)--then snarf.

[ballllin]

^ yaaa


are there any downsides to weed when eaten?

kuz the only bad things about weed as is is that it may fuck up ur lungs like tobacco when u smoke too much.

..when ingesting, there are no downsides.



right?

i'm blazed right now. peace.

[Weedhound]

Well there are a couple that I can think of....sometimes if I don't cook it quite right I can sort of still feel it hanging on the next day....I feel sort of sluggish somewhat. If I overcook it burns of course but I personally believe your body will digest the THC even raw BUT I also think it takes longer to digest (raw); you don't get as much of a rush and that's when it seems to me that you don't get a good buzz from it; more of a tired sort of feeling that I've had go on for a day or so. So getting the right temp during cooking from it is important in my book.

The length of time for it to take effect can be sort of irritating sometiimes and of course the flip side of that.....you're stopped by a cop and would like to be say.....sllllliiiightly more sober than you are it seems easier to snap out of than when smoked rather than eaten. And you need to start with a larger amount for eating than with smoking....a small bud will get you up when bonged but not by itself in a cookie....helps to have at least a joint's worth. :thumbsup:

That being said to me it can't be beat.....no telltale smell of smoking, no coughing, no ashes and crud everywhere. Easy enough to take a cookie or brownie with you on the go which is one of my favorite things. :D

[ballllin]

i broke up w/ a grinder... i thought that would've been obvious when i said i "spread out the weed" on the tinfoil.

hmmm. did it work for u? doubt u did it right.

[Weedhound]

When I wrote that little recipe for crackers I forgot to mention grinding the weed.....yes I think it makes a difference. Let us know spoon....now I'm curious.

[rainbows.rsexy]

nugz- crusty, sticky, stinky and most importantly dirty!


mmmm ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[Non]

hm...

[Non]

lol, would this work if heated in the oven as 'decarboxylation'?

[Weedhound]

Right on! :thumbsup: Aother conversion to the food network...(umm is it a food now?):stoned:

[Non]

so it has to come out slightly toasted?

[DudemeisteR420]

ya i wanna know non's question. my guess is yes but ime not sure

[BlazinTreesX3]

Bake it with the light a good distance below right? did ur flame ever touch the foil. nice high temperature would come from below it but on it might burn the chronic..

man im baked first time waterfall so doing this tonight is out of question...
tomorrow is a new day.

[ballllin]

haha good to see this method is gettin so much interest. i LOVE this method.


and like spoon said, my flame always touched the foil, but u don't do it for long. i guess if u don't let it touch the foil, u just do it for a while longer, but if u kno what ur doin, u shouldn't burn ur weed either way.

make SURE not to burn the weed. just slightly bake/roast it till the weed is slightly darker or browner. then ur good to go. shouldn't take much time at all.

[Leebstatus]

So who all can definitely say this works? Aside from balllllin.

[lazy smoker7]

now if I try this do I heave to seal the foil completly and when i bake it with my lighter how do I know when its done cooking in the foil? do i just close the foil heat then open , then look, then close foil and keep doing that over and over till the weed is brown?

[ch0dE420]

chea it wprks like that i done it to.

-shitsweak

try to seal the foil as much as possible, since the better it is sealed, the better it will be "baked".

if u bake the tinfoil with a lighter moving over all of the surface for about 30 seconds, u should be fine.

u can check to see ur progress by opening it up and seeing if the weed has a very strong "baked" smell and if the weed is a slightly darker, brownish color. make sure not to burn it.

[ballllin]

So who all can definitely say this works? Aside from balllllin.

the guy above me just said it worked. also spoon has made it work too.




9:02 AM I just cookced the grinded bud and ate it.

[Sweeney]

Interesting, defintley something I will try. A pictorial would be great even thought I have a good idea on how to do it.

[GosTo]

yeah this looks and sounds incredible

but im still confused could you just give me like a quick step by step 'tutorial' on how its done:)

[GosTo]

anyone?

[slipknotpsycho]

i guess it's up to me to dispell some myths here...

first and foremost, it may work and it may get you high, but you are wasting alot of extra thc doing it this way... the reason you need fats (oil butter ect) is to catch the thc when it's being vaporized (same as the glass jar part on a vape, it's there to catch the vapors)

if you were to take some of the same bud, of the same ammount and cook it right (in oil or butter) and eat that, you'd get alot more out of it...

and this stuff is simple physics....

so yeah, you go ahead and waste extra weed if you really want to... won't catch me doing that...

[mfqr]

actually dont think it will work because i think the thc will heat up and be vaped into the air with out it being able to be relased into any fat and instead the thc wil just fly away.. i dunno for sure.. try it and tell us how it went

_EXACTLY_

No, you're right, and so is Nochowderforyou. This method will hardly get you high, if at all. This is just a myth that lazy people want to abide by... you've got to have some kind of fatty substance to absorb the THC in. If it works, then I doubt it works any better than taking a couple hits off of some schwag. If you don't believe me, lazy smoker, or nochowderforyou, then there is scientific evidence which will state this.

[ballllin]

what's with all this myth-disspelling bullshit when ppl have already said it's worked???

it's worked very well for me.

but i do think it's more wasteful than cookin full out w/ butter and all that... but i think it's more efficient than smoking it. much more.

[slipknotpsycho]

i never said it wouldn't work.... i was correcting all the info from what i've read.. i'm sure it'd work, to some extent... even when you vape the shit out of weed, there is still thc left in that bud... so if you just start the vaping process, there's bound to be activated thc in the bud...

i'm just saying, you could get atelast twice outta that same bud if you did it right.. (even just cooking like .6 in a 1/8 cup of butter or vegetable oil or and eatin that) you'd get atleast 2x the effect....
