Investing In E Liquid/tincture?

Discussion in 'Vaporizers' started by Stevehinder809, Jul 20, 2014.

  1. Hello everyone I'm new to the forum and curious, is it a good investment to make my own thc eliquid? I am a college student with not a lot of money to spend and need a more stealthy way to get high, I own a e liquid vape pen and found it was easy to use in dorms and thought about using it for weed in the same idea, any thoughts?

    Electronic cigarettes, or eCigs, are shrouded in controversy. The industry says it's safer than smoking because carcinogens are removed by replacing the plant matter in tobacco with vegetable glycerin, which is then evaporated instead of burned and smoked.
    VG is a common food-grade thinning agent used in a variety of foods, including those fast food scrambled eggs served at restaurants, hotels, and cafeterias. It's also the base for cough syrups, both over-the-counter and prescribed.
    Since it's the base for codeine cough syrup, it stands to reason any drug can be dissolved in vegetable glycerin and either swallowed or vaped (depending on whether or not it needs heat to activate it).
    Drugs that can be dissolved in Glycerin many - look it up

    Dissolving tobacco, marijuana nugget, and other herbs in vegetable glycerin is achieved through a process called steeping, which is how teas are infused. This is best done in a double boiler, which is accomplished by putting the herbs and oil in a jar in a boiling pot, rather than directly on the heat.
    Steeping can be used to infuse glycerin with tobacco, cannabis, kief and more.

    INSTRUCTIONS

    sit ingredients in glass bow with pot of hot water underneath and heat slow for 2-3 hours stirring regularly

    Ingredients:
    - Vegetable Glycerin
    - E liquid flavor Peach and cream (or whatever you want to chuck in!)
    - Weed ground up fine
    - Kief
    - weedCrystals

    filter after 3 hours through coffe filter or old clean tshirt - duplicate process twice

    Put in bottle - ready to vape

  4. What about investing a regular herbal vaporizer? Some look just like ecigs (all portable ones do in a way, but some more than others). There's even one that's disguised as a zippo-style lighter. It'll get you higher with less weed, and you don't have to wait for the tincture to sit.
     
  5. True!

    I prefer this way as you can add amazing flavours to the mix: vanilla, tropical fruit, peach, menthol. If you do the process right it's perfect as it has the smell of only the e liquid juice!

  7. Much more matured e liquid - obviously a lot more THC and active ingredients are dissolving into the glycerine to produce water vapor that is packed full of thc. - very strong, again - no smell whatsoever.

    Thanks for the message!
     
    I would use however much VG you want to end up with at the end ( 100-200ml? 300ml?) the ratio of VG to weed/ kief with obviously make it stronger. I suggest using a good 4-5grams (Grind up until its a powder) for just 100-150 ml of VG. Let this sit in a dark cold place for around 3-5 days maybe even a week - to get the best results. Shake the mixture often - 5-10 times a day. And finally add your PG flavorings during the heating process - Vanilla or any creamy flavour is amazing with it. To make it super strong add a gram or two of crystals that you collect within a grinder crystal catcher.
     
    So for 5g of herbs you will need 28ml of VG and 12ml of PG.
     
    thanks,

  10. It works, but I don't know that I would say it is worth the time and cost. I find bud tinctures to be too weak for use in ecigs. They work much better if made from concentrates, but I wouldn't call that very cost effective for someone on a budget.

    If you have a lot of crystals and you are wondering what to do with them I recommend this. You could argue that this isn't as effective as vaping it but - Say if you were to let the VG and PG 70/30 solution absorb all the thc and cbd from the greenery for a good week - I would argue that this method is just as effective and if not produces a better result (PROBABLY A HEALTHIER ONE) and a stealthy smoke. The water vapor that goes into your lungs carries all these active ingredients where they sit and absorb much slower into the blood stream. You end up with a crippling head buzzy high like no other vape or bong or zoot has given me.

  12. for those who dont know what a tincture is, its just a solution to dissolve drugs in. VG and PG are both tinctures (Vegetable glycerin and propylene glycol)
     
    I suggest a 70/30 ratio of VG to PG then add concentrated flavors after the filtering process
     
    around 5grams is good for around 40ml of end product - and can be made head popping by adding crystals 
     
  13. Hello I would like to make a thc vg/pg tincture to vape discreetly. Please help me out as I'm new to this and this will be my first batch. I don't know where to put this I thought this would be a good place... So I'm going to grind up 3.5 grams into a ceramic bwl wrapped in foil into the oven at 212F for 30 min to decarb.
    Then put it in a mason jar filled with vg. I'm not sure the ratio but I want 5-10 hits to get you high. ( I smoke everyday) I heard to use pg to help thin it so I'm thinking 1:3. So I'll do 6oz vg and 3oz pg. please help me on the ratio. After its in the jar I'm going to put it in a crockpot on top of a ceramic ramiken so I don't burn the weed. I will fill the crock pot with water up to the glycerin and keep the lid off so the water dosent get to hot(the lid on the jar is sealed tho). Then I only have 4 hours to cook it and mix it every 20 min. So I'm going to keep it in a dark cool place and cook another day for 4 hours and then drain it with a cheese cloth. How do I flavor it ? Any help advice would be much appreciated and if I should move this to another thread lmk please and thanks...

  14. Yea let me correct the ratio n I'm positive this will work... One gram for every 8ml so I'm going to use four grams for 32 ml then a 70/30 mix so 22ml vg and 10 pg then add a couple ml of non nic already flavored juice and I should be good to go?
