Just for your future reference, olive oil is primarily a 'monounsaturated' fat, and as such is one of the poorest conductors of THC, what you really need to use in order for your 'bake' to be effective is an oil (or butter) high in saturated fat. i.e. clarified butter, coconut oil, palm kernel or at a pinch regular butter.

For a more detailed explanation read the science section (part 2):

You should find that'll dramatically improve the potency of your 'snacks' and save you quite a bit of weed too!

for me olive oil works well. i have made brownies with like land o' lakes butter, and i found that oilve oil worked better then the butter. it worked too well.

sometimes when i mix olive oil and weed, and i eat just a gram or less, its too much. plus the olive oil is good for your stomach.

try it. if you make brownies or any kind of food, use olive oil as the conductor for the thc transfer. i found it works better then butter, but thats all i know, becuase i only tried butter and olive oil as ways to transfer thc to make it edible.

if you ask me, i think that any fatty oil attracts the fatty resins of the weed plant, thus getting thc. as long as it contains fatty oils, thc transfer will take place.

alot of those other oils are not common at all. olive oil is very common and easy to come by.

use it!

alright dude....i went to that link.

yeah i saw all that stuff man..... but have you ever tried to use olive oil personally? it only takes me a gram, maybe less to start like, tripping.

Hi bogoljub

You're quite right about 'fatty oils attracting THC', however, (as I mention in the guide), the human metabolism is much better able to 'digest' saturated fats than monounsaturated, resulting in a much higher percentage of your dissolved THC reaching your bloodstream. Often by a magnitude of 4x (or more). Hence you'll only need a quarter of the amount of weed to achieve a more potent result (assuming you extract it properly, of course).

Even if you can only find regular butter it still contains around 66 percent saturated compared with olive oil's 14 percent.

Absolutely, it's how most people start out (that or peanut butter), but once you've studied the process you'll see just how much higher it's possible to get (and only using a tiny amount of weed!), give it a try and you'll see what I mean.

EDIT You're right about olive oil being better for you lol, but I guess it's not recommended as part of a calorie controlled diet!!! Particularly when you get the 'munchies'!! lol

oh...i see.

your probabally right. those other oils are probabally better conductors of thc.

with that being said..... im not sure if i want a better conductor of thc! : )

well you mentioned that common butter has more saturated fat then olive oil, but when i cooked with olive oil it got me higher then when i cooked with regular butter.

i think im partial to olive oil for a few reasons. the first is, its stability. its not all frothy at high temperatures, its easy to cook with.

the second is its health. when i mix olive oil with weed, and i eat it, not only do i get high...... high as hell, almost too high....... but my digestive tract gets soothed by the olive oil.

my stomach is actually more settled with the olive oil and cannabis then without it.

its a great thing olive oil mixed with cannabis, i think i remember a guy mentioning that temple 420 uses it..... i would assume they do that for a reason.

anway, olive oil is alot more common then those other oils, so if you cant get them use olive oil! perhaps even very fine oil. thats what i use, extra virgin unfiltered. try to get the unfiltered.
