Flavouring your weed

[QueBud]

This article is taken from an old timer growbook that i have and i thought i'd share it with you as it might be usefull to some.

"It is strongly advised that any flavourings be applied to only a sample,say a few joints worth.
Being stuck with a kilo of some drab flavor like avocado flavored weed may get to be a bit much,especialy in the bleakness of february.
Do only a bit at a time to see how you like it.

Most flavourings will fade away if exposed to air,so keep any flavoured cannabis in a tightly sealed jar,as a bag wont do.

Suggested flavourings

Bottled essences:
menthol,spearmint,vanilla,maple,peppermint,fruits. (smear some on to a cotton ball and put in the jar)

Real fruit:
lemon,lime,orange,grapefruit,apples.(use the peals only and put a little piece into jar)

Real flowers:
rose,lilas,fruit blossoms and other flowers.(put some in the jar)

Spices:
cinnamon,nutmeg,cloves,rosemary,camomille.(use a tea bag,cut a corner off and empty it and refill with spices and staple the corner and put in jar)

Spirits:
wine,port,sherry,wiskey.(smear some on to a cotton ball and put in the jar)


Flavouring mediums to avoid

When sugar burns,it burns hot and gives off a hot,black carbon smoke,to avoid a carbon smoke,it might be wise to stay clear of:

any soda pop,
maple syrup or sugar,
molasses,
Anything containing sugar."

Hope this helps,

flavoring is done to the root media

That is not what this thread is about,its about flavouring your weed after drying and curing.

True. Nice thread. You can also try dipping the freshly harvested buds in oils that you can make out of many of those ingredients. Then you let them cure and dry as normal. It is similar to how they add flavor to certain fine cigars.

Canola oil is cheap but has a slight after taste. Its not to bad if you use the right medium along with it. Ive even hear of olive oil used with italian herbs like oregano, rosemary, basil, etc. It is said to make certain strains (the more earthy flavored ones) take like pasta or pizza. In general, you try to bring out the buds inate flavoring. If its sweet, you use fruits, or citrus. If is floral, use flowers, and so on.

There are also oils that they make specificaly for curing cigars, but they are more expensive to buy. They are also harder to find, unless to have a high end cigar shop nearby.

Not to be rude, but weed taste's good just as it is

I agree.. if you have to flavour your weed after you harvest. you're doin something wrong
however, if you doin it just to get the flavour of...whatever it is you're flavouring it with. i certainly wouldn't flavour an entire harvest.. and if you HAVE to flavour your weed because you just can't smoke it the way it is.. then you're growin shitty weed.

either way.. there's some different methods of tryin it..

Here's what I did that I liked,..I put 1 tsp ground cinnamon, 1/2 tsp ground cloves and some tangerine peel in a piece of cotton fabric, tied it at the top and set it in my jar, it did improve the flavor a lot.

let it grow natural

okay, i am currently flavouring my weed. i put lemon peel without the inner white peel on it inside a plastic bag, rolled it tight and sealed it with about 2 grams of weed inside. Can anyone tell me if this work, or is the fact that it is not in a jar just ruin it and make my efforts pointless? and how long should the weed stay in the jar (or bag) with the peel?
