Sorry Chromo…Of course I will give more detail

Decarboxilizing (sp?) the fresh chopped material should activate the THC is there is any - the more trichomes the more you want to decarb it. The best way I have found to do this is in an oven at 240 degrees in a baking dish- spread the material out thinly then cover with foil, as tightly as possible. Let cook for about an hour making sure the temps stay steady @ 240.

The cool the material without removing the foil- not sure if this is a wives tail or not about the steam helping to 'hold in' THC but it seems to work and gives me the ritualistic feel I like….( recovering catholic here)…

Then take the coled material and put it in a glass container, cover with 2-4 oz. of 100 proof alcohol, if it was a big male 4 oz, small cutting that you harvested, 2 oz….

This gets put into t wet bath where it is kept at a steady 150(ish) never over 160 til the plant material loses its color - this can take a long time, sometimes 12-18 hours, I have started and stopped this without any issues…

After that strain the plant material out and store in a dark jar out of direct light- I use a few dropperfuls day…good shit…

Hope this helps...
