I've found that eating is a little hard to control your dose because it takes so long to kick in. Some people don't use enough and don't feel sh**, some people overdo it and get really baked for a long time. It can turn out to be an unpleasant experience, specially for rookies bcz you can get overwhelmingly high for hours and because it can upset peoples stomachs too, specially if you eat the plant material.

Peoples bodies absorb nutrients and whatnot differently too, hence different body types. I know this cat who can eat a ton and only gets a little high. He's one of those mother f** that can eat bigmacs every day and not gain a pound too. My theory is that his body burns the sh** up and he doesn't get to feel it, lol.

You gotta experiment, try alcohol extraction, glycerin tinctures, butter, bhang (milk or cream), Oil. Whatever works best for you. The butter's the only one I can think of that stinks up your house bad, well and oil too. Just stick to fatty substances because the good stuff is fat soluble, not water soluble. In other words, don't make tea! lol

Hey, I noticed you're pretty new too. Lurk around and read some of the recipes they got on here, There is some good stuff.
