One time, she made what she claimed were "potent brownies" and my brother and i each had 2 of these brownies and we were high for at least 6 hours (i think it was around 8) and it was magical.-don't know what kind of weed she used

I tried her recipe myself, but i used Northern lights, and it was pretty intense, but only lasted like 3 hours

My question is, after lurking here a while, is do you really need weed-butter? My sister's recipe works just fine, and is much easier and convienient (I live in college dorms, so sitting over a pan of simmering weed-butter isn't exactly feasable).

Also, just out of curiosty, what's the best way (in terms of brownies) to get a long high (6-8 hours) and a type of high were everything is just really funny and excitting (as opposed to mellow and relaxed)?-what variety of weed and what recipe. I need to celebrate after my midterms...

Thank you in advance for your assistance,

I've never made pot brownies, so take this with a grain of salt - but I have a friend who has made them, and he has told me he always just tosses the bud into a bowl of melted butter, so that the buds are soaked in butter first, then pouring the whole mixture into the main brownie mix - this way the buds are thoroughly soaked with fatty butter beforehand, giving the brownies a better THC absorption rate than if you just tossed them into the dry mix and added butter normally.
