Is this an effective way of consuming marijuana?

[Haddaway1]

I bought about a gram, smoked a little bit, then took butter and put it in a cup, melted it, and put the rest of my weed in it, and stirred. I then put the microwave at a low power level (3), I then heated it for 5 minutes, I stirred it again, and put it back in until it started simmering. I took it out and the butter was green, and I put it in the refridgerator to cool overnight.

The cannabis potency was very high. So my question is, if I were to eat all the butter tomorrow morning should I expect to get very high?
I am very inexperienced in consuming marijuana (smoke weed daily), and I would also appreciate it if someone could differentiate the differences in effects of smoking vs eating, and also difference in time duration.

eating it normaly takes alot longer to kick in about 30 mins to 2/3 hours but also lasts alot longer,the effects kinda creep up on you, one minuete ill feel a little buzzed then the next ill be blowen:stoned:
i always finding consming marijuana :eat: gives me more of a body stone i certainly find it differant than smoking
more intence but very pleasurable
i certainly recomend it:thumbsup:
as for the butter i couldnt say tbh im not realy an edible expert but i dont see why it wouldnt work

That sounds like a fairly plausible butter extraction; it should work.
I have back-calculated my edibles before and found that I get a long-lasting almost trippy high off the equivalent of 0.15g cannabis (bud, trim, and shake) extracted into butter and processed into candy.
Take a small amount, wait about 45 minutes, if you feel NOTHING, take the same amount again. If you feel ANYTHING, wait another 15-30 minutes before deciding whether to increase your dose.
Have a nice trip to tha moooooon!

just make sure u do get the stuff extracted into edibles... I one popped half a g raw raw (yeah, yukssss :P) with some bread cuz i was in a hurry and around family and wanted to be blown on a 7 hour road trip... at best i got a buzz and i just got super tired within 1.5 hours and passed out the whole way... still did the job of easing the boredom of sitting in car for 7 hours, but certainly not the way i wanted it, plus it was a big waste out of total of 1 gr for the trip lol

Ahh family road trips... I'm 30 and last year got to go on a GREAT (and I mean that in the most sarcastic way possible) road trip with my family... mom and dad and me n bro all squished into a Honda Accord for 7 hours each way... Those brownies Demeter gave me were a lifesaver... I had a quarter of one and napped happily with my headphones on listening to Rush for almost the entire ride, waking up only long enough for a big basket of fries from the rest stop... Edibles are the best way to medicate discreetly!
