I can do 4-5 grams a day pretty easy lol, but I've been cutting back a bit.Quote:

Please don't get me wrong.....I'm not saying that you are doing it the wrong way just that everyone is different and it wouldn't surprise me at all that depending on several factors such as people being different, strains of weed being different etc....that there could be all sort of "right" ways to cook it. If low didn't work for me and high temps did........what do you think I'd be cooking them at :D
Ps.....Daily amountwise..probably about 1/3 to 1/2 is of that above amount if what I use now. ;)
Interestingly.....when I cooked my ganja off my old recipe which was 350% (mixture temp....not oven temp) it took about the same amount to get me high as it had when I was eating.....but I couldn't complain about the buzz. It just took a lot more to get to the same spot and stay there as it does for me when cooking at lower temps.
I'll have to try a few different ways again with different strains.Quote:

I'll start by sepparating sativa's and indica's, and mixes of the 2.
That would be EXCELLENT Max.....I'd love some info like that. :thumbsup:
A cpl. T / Y's are in order here :thumbsup::thumbsup:.
1st - To Flame for all his research / trial -n- error .
2nd. - To Weedhound for 4 mos. of pokin , pesterin -n- pryin to get me to try this .
I've smoked for more than 20 yrs. , 1 -1.5 ounces a week . Plus inhaling God knows what when I was caught up in an explosion 7 yrs. ago . Lotsa time in a hyperbaric unit and 11 months of respitory techs./ resp. therapy and My lungs are still junk . I shouldn't be smoking :(.
We took 14 grams of roach weed . Used Flames 7 grams of oil for every 1.5 grams of weed numbers . A full tablespoon of oil = 14 grams BTW .
Ran the weed through a cofee grinder till it was the consistency of flour . Followed the instructions cooking in a crock pot for 3 hrs. keeping the temps of the cups contents at 250 degrees .
It took the temps set at 320 degrees on the crock pot to = 250 degrees in the cup due to loss of heat from transference through the crock liner / stoneware cup etc... <-" Not taking this into account is the number 1 mistake of ppl. w/ bum results so far" .
There was an 80-100 degree temp flux between the 2 at my house . So ppl. that set their crock pot at 250 could quite possibly have only been at 150 degrees or so w/ the cups contents :( .
It ended up making 80 capsules total .
""Why am I thanking you folks"" ? = I ate 3 caps. at 7:00 and felt nothing at 8:00 :mad: so "FOOL" ate 3 more caps. = Maybe it's due to use of roach weed ? :wtf: Maybe these folks are just light weights / pussies ;) ? Maybe just a huge tolerence after 20 yrs. and I'm king of the highons ?:D
NOTTTTTTTTTT !!!
8:30 My face was rubbery -n- numb like w/ the 190 proof grain alky from Markass ,
9:30 - Permagrin has set in -couldn't wipe the grin off my face w/ a 2 x 4 .
10:00 - the giggles and a body buzz = to that of mushrooms / ACID :hippy: .
I was high till 2 am . I haven't been that high since I was a kid . No cookie , brownie has ever ever ever affected me this way .
I Can't wait to try this w/ fresh green killer and not roach weed .
p.s My lungs are going to be greatly relieved by this this recipe and much thanks to you both . :stoned::stoned:
Peace
Crispi :jointsmile:
xcrispi, you lucky bastard. That's what I've been hoping for every time I do any kind of cooking. All I do is waste premium weed. I tried it at 210, then again at 260 (oil temp, not crock pot temp). Nothing. Absolutely nothing, except a slight stone that could be achieved through one bowl. I followed directions, except the last try I turned it down to low and went to bed, after 3 hours at 260. I was under the impression that longer times in the crock pot could only help. I am at a loss. I'm about to stop wasting good weed on cooking.
I have an extremely high tolerance for everything, and have had since I was about 2. That shouldn't matter. I had I high tolerance in college, and cooking with cookies got me completely blazed. Thoughts anyone?
Another weekend, another attempt. :)
Because we aren't sure if we are gonna get it right, this time we are only starting with an eighth of chronic, which we put in the oven for seven minutes at 300 F, and then we ground it in a coffee grinder to powder.
The crockpot, which only has two settings, has been warming up for awhile. We added the weed to a coffee mug, and then added the oil. We ended up with 2.9 grams of powdered weed, so we used almost a full tablespoon of oil.
I think he added way too much oil once again, which will probably end up messing everything up because it will dilute it way too much...but maybe that's just me being pissy today. :D
So the mixture is in the crockpot now. It is turned up to high, and we have a digital candy thermometer to measure the temperature of the actual mixture. We are waiting for it to reach the desired temps, and then our cooking time will start.
Wish us luck!!
OK, good luck. Yes, I think that's about twice as much oil as you need for that amount of weed. I put a little too much in my last batch, and it made everything more complicated and messy. It took forever to fill the capsules and the mixture got everywhere. I've only tried twice so far, but I've come to the conclusion that the less oil you can use, the better for packing capsules.
