Glycerin has a very low amount of alcohol, so it takes forever to extract the CBD/THC.

you can use a slow cooker, set to low, at have a glycerin tincture done with raw plant matter in like seven hours.

another way to make tincture is to use hash, hash oil or kief. this way, you know exactly to what percentage it's titrated. just mix the meds with the medium (glycerin, alcohol, butter, milk.....) and heat and stir. viola.
