Well... 1/8 = 3.5g... if you eat all the butter containing all this 1/8, you surely will be sent to the outer dimensions of the space-time and will reach the highest level of highness... :abduct:
Ive heard that 0.2 or 0.3g of weed is enough for a great high... so, you only need to eat about 1/10th of the "weeded" butter...
Or, in other words... this 1 stick of butter with 1/8 of weed is enough for 10 highs. (And if the bud is good, it means HIGHHHHS :stoned

Well... i think there is not a consensus yet... but i think the differences wont be SO great... you will be HIGH anyway...

The water is used to prevent the butter going hotter than 100C (212F). If you heat the butter without water, there is the possibility of it go hotter than 100C... this temperature has nothing magical about this, as the THC only evaporates at about 180C... so, keeping the butter not-so-hot is only a safety measure.

Anyway... there is a very good tutorial about how to cook with weed... look at:

Im sure you will find a lot of useful information there.
So, good luck, and stay high! :thumbsup::stoned:
