i have no idea to tell u the truth experament with it =)
One of the reasons why it laid you out is because it was your first time. You have nothing to compare it to, so you really can't say.
yea my first time i tohught i was gonna die. im also afraid that microwaving will acctualy destroy some of the tetrahydracanibinol delta 9
ive never taken the time to do it..but if u wanna kno the best way to find out is try it
I put my nug in the microwave for like 3 mins and it started to burn so i had to smoke it fast dunno tasted nice though :) even when i nibbled on it alittle
microwaving a blunt will dry it out nicely, but i doubt it changes the potency of the bud. doing it too long will just burn the bud for no reason so, the answer to your question is no.
haha my first time i thought i was gona die 2 =) haha
Looking forward to some researched answers on the whole converted thc argument. There should be a clear answer for everyone to know, does this work or not?
I doubt anyone truly knows if this works or not. I've heard so many conflicting arguments that I have no idea what is true and what is not. All I can say is that I've tried this once. There was a similar thread like this a couple months back. I put a small nugget in the micro for maybe 20 seconds and smoked it directly afterwards. I remember the smoke felt a bit smoother and the high was a bit 'lighter' in my opinion. The bud was some stoney indica, and after microwaving it, I got more of a sativa buzz.
No significant change in the potency though. Not that I noticed at least...
I just read another thread and it seems to work, but you should microwave the weed no more than 15 seconds, or you might vaporize the THC and you don't want that
I personally haven't tried it yet, but I will soon.
I put my pot in for 25 seconds on normal setting, before smoking it.
I noticed the difference immediately, between the microwaved bud, and normal. I smoke the same stuff almost all the time, and it tasted a bit different, smoked slightly different, and the high was completely different.
Pretty much everyone I have shared this with microwaves their pot now, and loves it. If it doesnt do anything, oh well, I absolutely love the placebo effect, but I have had a blast since I started doing so.
this one guy i know always puts a gram or two in his microwave for about 20 seconds he says it resins is up and burns a little slower but it may kill thc becouse on hightimes i heard this question about drying your bud in the microwave they said it would work but destroy half or evan more of the thc.The first time i got high i was hearing all kinds of shit and stuff i was so scared but at the same time happy
If you put it in there for too long, yeah, it will. And if you are trying to dry your weed, its going to have to be in there for a decent amount of time.
I believe guys that microwave's work by heating/boiling any water in the microwave. By that notion then boiling is at 212F and THC breakdown starts at 375F I believe. That would make it pretty hard to kill your THC in the microwave. My only doubt is about the plate you put it on. If the plate were to heat too much then its heat could kill your THC.
BTW, There is in fact a study out there that concludes that cooking your bud turns a compound THCa into THC. But that regular smoking it was at too high of a temp to allow that reaction to take place. There is also a well known recipe book out there that always recommends pre-baking your cooking stash at 200F, I think it says for an hour.
This topic is already covered some where on this forum, That is where I learned this.
I've tried it on tons of friends, They all said that they liked sample B better. little did they know sample B was just sample A microwaved. :jointsmile:
Several people microwaved their buds... their results are at:

Unfortunately, the thread was closed, and so sentenced to the forgetfulness in the limbo of the old threads...
im gonna get more weed soon and try it, then ill report immidiatly after
ive seen like 4 threads on here about that and they all say its true. Im gonna try it sometime but all u got to do is like a scientific experiment. put a lil bit in the micro for however long, smoke that, wait till the high wears off, then try the same amount of the same weed
I've been doing that experiment on my friends for a while now. I didn't believe myself. I thought maybe it was psychosomatic, That I read this and believed it so I felt it. Thats why I started it on my unsuspecting friends. ;)Quote:

Some people even wished that that thread were make sticky... if it were the case, i would re-write it with the best methods they described there...
Anyway, we can continue that thread here... :p
I followed the advice in that thread, but I used the cooking method, cooked a bud or two for 5 mins at 325 degrees F. And I gotta say, it may have been better. That thread says it doesn't increase the potency of high-end well-cured buds as well as it affects schwag, and all I have are high-end well-cured buds, but even so, I think it was better, at least in terms of effects and the high. It didn't look as good or taste as good, however. Still, I will do it again I'm sure.
The first time I microwaved fresh harvested bud ...the resin caught the paper plate on fire.....:microwave:
You know I was apprehensive at first, but now......
I DIG IT MON!!! :rastasmoke:
You guys are going to have me microwaving a freaking nugget.
lol
I always break up my bowl before I microwave it, seemed to work better for me then just microwavin the nugg.Quote:

I have some mid..i have nothing to lose. I'll probably give it a zap in the micro. Maybe...20 seconds?
I'll update with results. The bud that I have now is actually pretty damn good...even if it is mid. I know the high quite well because I've been smoking a lot of it the last few days. I'll definitely notice if there's a difference.
i smoked some mid grade that i put in the micro for 10 seconds, got me stoned as hell.
Well then maybe I'm in for a treat!
heh, I'd like to hope so. I'm bout to go do it in 5.
Have fun with that. Every person I know who has tried it has been converted for life. :jointsmile:Quote:

I do mine for 30 seconds for about 1-2 bowls.Quote:

Well. I micd'em a bowl (a very fat bowl mind you) at about 25 seconds. To say the least, I can hardly type this post.
Yes. am very, very, Very high. My head is pounding. hmmm...
I applaud this thread.
Congrats man, enjoy. :jointsmile:Quote:

And your evidence for this answer is...?Quote:

One thing annoys me about this thread. Threads exactly like this pop up like once a week! Can't someone do some searching and find the 38738932238 threads on this? lol. Geez.
