    So, last night my mom went out, i had brownie mix, i decided why not. I am not sure how much i put in, but they don't work. I'm fuckin pissed. because what i had put in was probably enough to last 2 weeks with my vape. I don't know where i went wrong. I didn't make oil because i wasn't sure when she would be back (she ended up staying where she was for the night) and i didn't want it to smell. i looked it up and some people say if you just toss your ground bud into the mix and bake it it would work. i made 2 batches. each of 8, 16 in total. I don't know where i went wrong. i ate one last night when i made them. nothing happened. i ate 2, 2 hours ago, hoping it would maybe work. nothing. i don't know why. any possible reasons?

    Well thc is absorbed into fat. There isn't that much fat in brownie mix. Not enough to effectively extract cannabinoids anyway. You have to use oil or butter. Coconut oil and clarified butter are the best imo.

    Nope, you can't just toss the herb in the brownie mix, that is not an effective method. Read some of the EXCELLENT sticky posts at the top of the forum for recipe ideas. I decarb, cook the herb in coconut oil and then strain out the solids before adding it to the brownie mix.
     
    PLEASE measure the quantity when you're baking edibles. If you use too much it is no fun, but if you use too little, it is kind of a waste. If you don't measure, then how can you make it right next time? I normally use between 1/8 and 1/4oz herb for a tray of 16 brownies. If it's your first time, better to start on the lightweight side.
     
    Remember to wait up to 2 hours for full effects to kick in...

    you did not decarb. And there was probably no fat solubles in your brownies.

    Sure, you did everything wrong.
     
    Need to decarb your weed first, and then a process of heating cooling and being careful extracting into a oil or butter, then make brownies with that. Throwing your herb into the mix is a huge waste.
