Are edibles/teas/etc. more efficient than smoking?
I think I will try making firecrackers....especially after my disastrous results of this tea/chocolate milk I made....
Ok...so how did that chocolate drink thing turn out? Well....I really think adding butter was a dumb idea because once it cooled down...the entire drink became a disgusting solid. I was expecting just some film floating on top to scoop off with a spoon....but no, I turned the cup upside down and this goup still wasn't moving!! I poked it with the spoon and the whole thing was slushy as if frozen....but it wasn't frozen.
So yea, I didn't even try drinking....err, eating that drink lol COMPLETE FAILURE! lol What did I do wrong? I'm thinking the butter was a big reason, but could I have also heated the milk too warm? Was letting it cool down a bad idea? I'd like to try again, but I don't wanna screw it up again. Told you guys I was retarded when it comes to cooking, if there aren't microwavable instructions I'm almost always going to have problems hehe
So I'm thinking next time skip the butter and only have the milk, get the glass jar as suggested, and get a grinder because I really need it ground up better if I don't want to be pulling chunks out when its done.
My question: Is cooling it safe? Or is it better to drink warm? Any tips or suggestions would be welcomed, thanks!

hands down eating weed is much much more potent than smoking it. Alot of ppl will say this is not true... thats just because they are making a mistake in their cooking some where. 2 days ago I did the final test to see if eatging was more efficient than smoking. I took 1 gram and cooked it into a firecracker with organic peanut butter(the right kind of pb goes a long way! skiipy,jef will not work! or work well) anwyays after i cooked the fire cracker i was baked within 30 mins and really high after an hour. Then the next day I smoked a 1 gram blunt.... just got a buzz and was no where near as strong as the cracker the day b4... the only downside to cooking is that its easy to mess up and dosent work all the time and when it does work it works fucking fantastic... even better if u smoke right when the edibles kick in and ull be on ur ass! Heres a few things that help when making edibles... do not smoke until the edibles kick in... and have an empty stomach. Wait 2 hours after indigestion to see if the edibles worked or not..... but yea eating weed kicks ass!

I make brownies and cookies sometimes ... I pull the best buds off the plant, the rest goes into cooking stash ... when I manicure my buds, all of that goes into the stash, too, so my 'cooking stash' has plenty of small buds in it ... one cookie or brownie, takes about 2 hours to 'kick in', then lasts about 4 hours ... two brownies or cookies, just kick my ass for about 6 hours, a real 'day-ender' ... last night, I made some 'oatmeal/chocolate chip/peanut butter' cookies from my 'Willie Nelson' leftovers ... mmmm, like a spacey Reeses' Cup :giggity:

I notice a lot of people say eating it is a waste. I disagree. Maybe it's because a recipe may call for a 1/4 oz. in one pan of brownies. The good thing about firecrackers (which I am baking right now.) Is you can bake just one if you want. You only need about 1g, or even half of a gram, depending on tolerance and quality of course.
Also, from a lot of pictures I have seen, most firecrackers look overdone. I don't think it's necessary to wrap them in foil to keep the THC vapors in. As long as the weed is completely surrounded by peanut butter, vapors can't escape through it, can they?
I think people overcook them, because they are afraid of not getting all the THC into the peanut butter, or they because they usually set their weed on fire, they are just have that mentality.
