Canna Caps with Dry/Powdered Flower

I've never tried it, but I have eaten raw decarbed hash. It works but takes a long time.

Using coconut oil and lecithin is well worth it imho. In combo they work faster and give more effects than without.

I don't know how many size 00 caps needed to fill an oz of herb. I do know you can fill 30, size 00 caps with a fluid oz of oil/herb/hash/rosin/feco.

 

I've been wondering the same thing.
This should be easy to test, but I've been too lazy.
I make a lot of size 00 oil caps that contain at most 0.25 grams herb each (but usually only 0.15 g), which is about 40 mg thc.
It might be possible to get twice as much finely ground herb into a capsule.

 

I used powdered flower in size 0 caps for quite some time. You can cram about a third of a gram of powder in a size 0 cap and about 600mg or so in a size 00. I haven't made many 00 caps and it was years ago but that's what I remember from the few times I did. I thought powdered flower without oil worked just fine. It does take a long time to come on. I agree with MIW, it's worth the trouble of making oil. It's so much easier to fill a capsule with a dropper than trying to pack it full of powder but if you only have a gram of so of flower then powder is an easy way to go.

 

If we put BadKat's recipe as the top of the scale 10 of 10.
That is Herb, Oil, Lecithin.

Plain decarbed Herb is 4 of 10
Herb and Oil only is 6 of 10.
Onset 2 hours give or take 30 minutes either way.

I'm interested.
Everybody's different, and it's conceivable that plain herb could work just as well for you.
Maybe even better?

 

If you include the plant material in the caps, you'll get more out of it, and since your swallowing capsules over eating it, no problems with taste or texture. It does make it a little harder to fill caps with oily herb, but not terribly difficult. I cut off a little of the bottom of a pipette to fill caps and it works well.

Since I no longer inhale and I have patients that I grow for I test new varieties using this method with just a few buds and it works well and I can even detect varietal differences.

 

I use powdered buds, but I infuse them with oil and lecithin and the fill my capsules.
Never tried without oil and lecithin. I am curious if it will work.

One of the key aspects of using oil, is that the oil itself is more bioavailale to your body. Remember, the digestive tract is, thankfully, not a nice place. It's full of hot acid! So the battle your facing is that your body's own processes want to take those edibles apart and process them as food. Even under ideal conditions, a significant portion of THC is lost. Our goal with edibles is to minimize that loss, thus making more of the active ingredient available to get where it needs before digestion makes it all go away.

By dissolving the active ingredient in a solvent, in this case oil, you're "protecting" it from the worst the digestive tract has to throw at it. Additionally, the introduction of lecithin as an emulsifying agent, ensures uniformity as well as further enhancing the bioavailability.

 

@bruno dawson NOPE! Just how stupid do you think we are???

Thanks for the experiment.
Ardent Cannabis, maker of Nova, Lift, and FX agrees with you.
They've been recommending sprinkling decarbed herb on food for a long time.
I'll eventually get around to trying it too.

 

@MickFoster There was a guy called bruno who put spam that was advertising a scam site, toastedexotics, into your thread. I responded to his reply with the post you saw and reported bruno as a spammer.

bruno was far more aggressive than most spammers and I took offense at his aggressiveness. He posted in at least 11 threads in about a half hour and I "outted" him in each of his posts that I found. A mod must have deleted bruno's spam post(s), so I understand why you were confused!

@dobro49 found my anti-spammer activities to be amusing. To quote-

@MickFoster No prob, hon!

Usually the mods leave a "post deleted by ___" marker when they delete an offending post, but it was late and I guess he/she forgot! lol
