I don't really mind getting zombified from weed, but some people like to retain more function when their high, and don't like the idea of getting too baked.

That's one potential downside, but a pretty weak one at best...:twocents:

This is what I was thinking too. You can get really, really high and the high can take a long time to wear off. It's easy to overdue it and, if you do, you're committed for a while.

The only time I ever ate weed I guess I ate a bit too much :hippy: Some chick I worked with gave me two weed cookies "One will probably do it, but take two just in case". Well, I ate both and it was the highest I had ever been . I ate them about noon and when my girlfriend came home from work about 6:00 she took one look at me and was like "you are sooo fucking stoned" . All in all I had a great time but if I had needed to got o work or do something like that I'd have been fucked.

It does take longer when you eat it. If I remember correctly it took me about 45 minutes or so before I felt it and probably another 30 before I felt the full effect. This is probably the biggest drawback to eating it. It takes so long to feel it that you can eat way too much before you ever know it.

Yep.;)

I have only a very little bit of weed left (saving all my money for my gfs christmas present ;)) so getting a nice long high would be nce ;) Tell you how this all works out for me tommorow after school ;) sounds like it would work...

Hmm eating weed? There shouldnt be a downside, only that your not smoking it lol

The only downside is that I bought my $200 bong for nothing.

There is no downside to eating herb, healthwise. It takes less to get you high when eating, not more.

I tried this multiple times and I got high.

BUT

In a sense are you not vaporizing it? I mean your heating up the foil hot enough to "cook" it. Those wisps, that come out of the tin foil isn't thc evaporating? Just wondering.

With that being said, I got high both times I tried it. Took an hour and half to 2+ hours to take effect.

It's not vaporizing, because you don't let it get too hot.

Don't think I saw that in the instructions. I thought you heated up the tinfoil for those 30 seconds to the point of cooking it yet not burning it, just like a smoke bubble vap.

So you're really 'cooking' it which in every other instance releases THC, but in this example you have nothing to absorb the THC as it releases. I would think that THC would escape thus lessoning the amount you absorb when you eat it.

I mean your either 'vaporizing' or 'cooking' it, both allows THC to release and/or escape.

Either way, Weed is a wonderful thing :stoned::stoned:
