Mixing hash oil with olive oil

High dido

Great to hear that your mom found something to help and someone to help her.

If it's effective as it is then I wouldn't decarb it. As a medicine cannabis is just as effective and won't get you so high if not decarbed. It's quite likely mostly decarbed from being processed into oil already.

You could for sure dilute it with olive or many other oils to make dosing easier. Even put that into caps if you wanted to if a pill would work better.

Figuring out the dosage is a bit tricky. The way I do it with cocobudder I make is to cook up the pot in either a 20:1 or 10:1 ratio. Like 20 grams coconut oil to 1 gram pot for the 20:1.

Then I'll use a proper measuring spoon and take 1 level tsp. for a test dose one evening about 2 hours before I plan to go to bed. It can take up to 2 hours to really feel it and if it's a bit too much then I was going to bed anyway so no harm, no foul. I just go to bed and sleep it off.

How are you giving your mom the oil now? Can you make a ballpark estimate of how many doses you would get from a gram? How much oil do you have or can you get more if needed?

Just for example: If you think you would get 10 doses per gram and have 2 grams and want 1 tsp/dose then you would want to dissolve the 2 grams of oil in [(2g x 10 doses/g = 20 doses) x 5ml/tsp] = 100ml of olive oil needed. Might be better to double the amount of olive oil and try 1tsp first. Put it on a cookie or piece of toast. Something that will be eaten so the whole dose is taken. Putting on pasta would leave some on the plate or if she couldn't eat it all the dog would get it.

My 91 yo mom is using RSO on some skin cancer patches and I forgot to ask her if it's working yet. She had been away visiting family so may not have taken it with her then.

Good luck!

 

I mix whatever amount of oil I can extract from 30 grams of bud (usually 3.5 - 5 grams) with 2 ounces of carrier oil. For dosage, it's trial and error. We're talking drops here via a pipette.

 

That should work fine but a liter might be too much and doses would be a lot of oil to eat somehow.

You might want to check out my cocobudder method in the link in my sig below. I decarb the pot as it cooks in the coconut oil and will be doing some like it using organic MCT oil which is made from coconut oil but is liquid at room temp and has no coconut taste. It's supposed to be better than olive oil or even whole coconut oil as a carrier for cannabinoids. Any good oil could be used to do the same thing.

I have to go out but later I'll PM you with some links to some people that are really doing some great work with lab testing etc that you might find helpful but they are on another forum so it wouldn't be kosher to post the links here.

 

Once it's fully dissolved it should be good to go. I use liquid sunflower lecithin with my cocobudder as it's supposed to make it more absorbable in the gut.
