Hi I am a medical marjiuana user and since being a member of this board have decided to try making green dragon.
My question is will tequilla work for green dragon? its 38% called Don Julios from mexico and supposd to be mid level, its brown in colour. also if it does work would the potency be lower? If the potency is lower what would be a safe starting dose?
Any opinions or infromation would be much appreciated.
thanks in advance.
It would work but one of the points of the Green Dragon is that your solvent purity should be as high as possible- in commercial drinkable alcohol, the solvent in question is alcohol and water is simply an impurity! haha
So the most pure form of this ethanol solvent that is commercially available down the Packie (Masshole-speak for liquor store) is going to be Bacardi 151. If you can find Everclear, that works to. If you can find neither, look for the highest-proof booze around. Don Julio is fabulous as a beverage but as a solvent for Green Dragon it's not quite the strength that you would ideally like, and also since it is so expensive, it's kind of a waste of money.
Will it work? Sure.
Will it work ideally? Not quite. It's not the potency so much as the efficiency of extraction- you might not get everything out of your bud. But it certainly will dissolve enough to be medicinal.
Steeping it for as long as your prepared (or patient enough) to wait will help make sure that as much of the THC as the proof will stand and absorb is extracted into your brew.
Tequila green dragon, now there's a thought. Hmmnn.
How about a spot of white rum for a Mojito, with some fan leaves instead of mint. Yeah, now we're talking.
Anyone with me? How about you Stinky?
On that note, I'd like to raise a toast to C.com, its hard working, fair minded, not to mention attractive mods and it's wonderful contributors with their wit, wisdom, experience and generous guidance (yeah, I know I'm creeping for brownie points (or just brownies) should I step out of line in the future), but hey you can't blame a 6ft 5 love god for trying, can you?
Charge your glasses, I give you . . Stinky, Weedhound and the whole of the canna crew!
God bless you all!
(I'm feeling the love tonight).

Yeah stinky is right. You really need high proof alcohol for it to work. Try putting alittle honey oil in a bowl and dillute with vodka or some lower proof alcohol. It doesn't mix. It just turns into a ball of jello.
