jebus2029 -I can never tell if mine are living up to their potential or not. I've made about 6 batches over the past year and they have all worked but some better than others. As far as I could tell that was just the quality of the herb coming through.
This is an important consideration for anyone experimenting with edibles. I too have found myself questioning the results of my experiments without factoring in the variances in strength of the weed I used. The better the quality of herb the better the qualities of the tincture or baked good. Concentrated low-mid grade weed has a concentrated low-mid grade buzz, while concentrated high end weed has the concentrated cerebral effects of really good smoke.
Both have their utility, but too often people think that cooking with herb will magically improve it's qualities, but I think magnification might be a better descriptor.
Currently I have 2 bottles of tincture working that I stared in early December. One consist of 180ml of Everclear and 1/2 ounce of not that exciting commercial pot. The other is about 50ml of Everclear and 3 grams of very high end weed. Even at 3-4 time the dosage the low end weed only gets me very sedated while a 1/4-1/3 that amount of the high end stuff gets pretty trippy.
It's always relative to what you start with.

The Hounds' Cannabis Capsule Guide with Flame-On's Recipe So Mr Hound and I made some capsules tonight and we figured we'd do a little pictorial guide as to how we accomplish it. We want to give HUGE props to Flame-On for all his hard work and great knowledge for this capsule recipe.....we LOVE it!! :thumbsup::thumbsup: First, we start with some nice ganja (in this case SNL x NH), some coconut oil and a strainer. For this particular recipe I am using 20 grams of strained bud. It takes about 22-24 grams pre-strained but I end up with almost Rating: 5
