It is also supposed to be baked in something with a high fat content because THC is not water soluble and is supposedly abosrbed better by the GI-tract when dissolved in oils.
Because cannabinoids such as THC are not very water soluble cannabis cannot be efficiently chewed for effect, it also cannot be injected. In order to inject THC you would need a very high purity extract and solution of hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin with .1% hydroxypropylmethylcellulose.
De...carb..oxy... sounds alot like combustion, aka, setting something on fire and using oxygen to combust carbon.

But what form is this which is more psychoactive, other than the psychoactive form of the user thinking that it makes it stronger?

And you say that THC isn't water soluable... makes sense... its fat soluable...wait, are you saying that I'm 100% water?

Are you saying I'm skinny?!

BRING IT ON, PUNK!
