My theory

Ok so I got a theory, everyone says that THC is not soluble in water right and it is in fats, but it is "slightly" soluble in water. Quote from http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/q...dopt=Abstract; "Delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the main psychoactive constituent of Cannabis sativa L. and its therapeutic effects are currently under intensive study. However, THC has a very low aqueous solubility (1-2 microg/mL)" So THC is soluble 1-2 mg per ml of water. Incase your wondering how much mg of THC is in a certain amount of weed, several websites say about 60-150mg of THC in a joint. So 60-150mg per .5 grams of weed. Considering all of these facts, all of the THC in .5 grams of weed would dissolve into about 150ml of water. So if I were to stick 150ml of water into my microwave until it boils, then put .5 grams of broken up weed and mix it good and drink it I would get high. Thatâ??s my theory, correct me if Iâ??m wrong and Iâ??m going to test this out in a couple days when I get my hands on some weed.

Okay...yeah, you might get a little high. I don' t think I would do it though...
I like to experemint too, but not at the cost of ruining the budz...
but you go man. let us know how it goes!

Man that quote says microg not mg which is milligrams. Micro grams are 1/1,000,000 of a gram and milligrams are 1/1000 of a gram so it would take 150,000mL of water or 150L of water to dissolve .5 grams. Nice idea though.

do it anyway, i wanna see someone try and drink 105l!

Haha, 5 grams wouldn't even get you fucked, either.

"Cannabis can also be consumed as a tea. THC is lipophilic and only slightly water soluble, with a solubility of only 2.8 grams per litre" thats from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabis%28drug%29 That would mean 2.8mg/ml

Notice it says micrograms guys...

Micrograms, or μg, is a completely different measurement than milligrams or mg. Actually, there are 1000 micrograms in a milligram. Meaning, that to achieve the effects that you desire, you would need to put over a pound of pot in a suitable amount of water. Oh, and usually, in scientific studies, a joint is .9-1.1g. Even the evil NIDA uses that measurement.
Good idea, but it wont work.

Micrograms a really small man. I first learned about that unit when I was in some crazy molecular biology class. Let me tell you that you can hardly even see that much water with your naked eye. I think its like 1x10^-6 grams or something like that.

Guys did you read the post i put after that or did you guys skip it? 2.8g/L
