Cannabutter makes me too tired/sleepy

    My friend just made me some cannabutter from schwag, and he used about an ounce to make it. When I tried it the other day, it just made me very sleepy and gave me a headache, but it didn't get me high. My friend told me that he heated the cannabis/butter mixture on low heat for about 6 hours. I have a feeling that he made it incorrectly, but it's also possible that since the weed he used was very poor quality, there is just no way to make potent cannabutter out of it. He said that if he had used high quality weed it would have been too expensive to make it.

    6 hours of heating explains why the cannabutter wasn't good.
    Long cooks destroy thc, and can change it into unpleasant things.

    Decarb @ 240 F for 40 min, then infuse with lecithin for a maximum of 1 hr @ 220 F.
    Best is to grind to fine powder and not strain.

    Both of those things can be true: The herb can be schwag AND you friend didn't follow a good recipe.

    And a third factor could have been, you overdosed and took too much, had a bad reaction.

    Next time try making the edibles yourself, using the highest-quality herb you can find, and go slow with the dosage.

    The general rule is if you can get stoned smoking it you can get scary stoned eating the same weed.

    Decarb 240 F for 40 minutes uncovered
    5 grams decarbed Cannabis. (Hash or Kief or Powdered Buds or concentrates
    1 tablespoon Coconut oil ( fastest oil to take effect )
    1/2 teaspoon Lecithin (strength enhancer)
    Combine
    Heat 220 F for 20 minutes
    Freeze (optional)
    Heat 220 F for 20 minutes (optional)
    Done

    Hash-Kief 1 drop = 3mg
    Powdered Buds 1 drop = 1mg

    Hash-Kief the full tablespoon is 2500mg
    Powdered Buds the full tablespoon is 750mg

    Start with 10mg and wait 2 hours. If not stoned.
    Take 20mg more and wait 2 more hours. If not stoned.
    Take 40mg more and wait again.
    Continue doubling the dose and waiting until it works.
    It will work at some point and you'll be so high you can't remember which way is up.

    Sleep is NOT gonna happen with this stuff. Most people find my oils to be wickedly speedy in effect and the biggest complaint is they spent hours tripping their brains out staring at the ceiling unable to sleep.

    I just got done coaching an elderly woman down from her "Hell of a Ride" when she misjudged her dose by 4x. She'll be fine it just got a bit wild and freaky for her. LOL she been asking what to much was like and now she knows. She was a bit hung over the next day and asked when that would fade so the wife chips in and says just have a couple of Cocktails and shake it off.

    LOL
