Man, this is rough. My girlfriend and I have been watching this thread for a while now and we finally had gotten all of the pieces together that we needed. We've tried them.. we even have 4 in us now.. and nothing. Maybe a little body high, but nothing near what we were hoping. Especially having used as much bud as we did. We are tight on money and we were hoping this would help stretch us a little. Unfortunately, it looks like it may have just lost almost 2g. The biggest step we know that we did differently was not having a grinder to turn it into powder. We took scissors to it like crazy though, and it was fairly fine, but not perfect. Could this little detail be the difference between it working and not?

We also weren't sure about the amounts we used. We weighed out 1.5g of bud and scooped 7g of coconut oil and when it was all put together, the bud pretty much just soaked up the oil and was chunky, moist bud. After about 2.5 hours of cooking on low in the crockpot, it was pretty mushy, as I had decided to expect. We took it out, let it cool, and stuffed our caps. They turned out to be pretty full, which was fine. We got 12 out of it and each took one. That was last night.. We waited and got enough to say it felt like we had smoked a couple hours prior. This morning, we woke up and took two and some bread right away. After two hours, nothing. If anything, it was about what we got last night. We took two more and we're still waiting on those, technically. I don't really know what to expect though. Everyone else has been freaking out about them, so I would expect that I would definitely know what was going on when it happened.

I guess my biggest worries are the lack of grinder and the thickness of the cooked mixture. Could that be because it wasn't ground? or..? We realllly wanted this to work, but we also reallllly can't afford to lose much (if any) more to this right now. On the crockpot, there are only two settings. We used "low", which I believed was the reccomendation.

Any ideas at all? We might have to pick up an eggcup like that just so we can do a smaller batch and see what happens, but I really don't know. :/ *sigh*
