newbie question

Discussion in 'Weed Edibles' started by ilognav, Jul 30, 2019.

  1. if i were to make edibles at home and give them to my friends/family, how do i figure out how many mg of thc per edible it is so i can tell them? i used roughly 3.6 grams and then i decarbed the weed on 270 for 30 mins, and let the butter/water/weed mixture simmer for about an hour. i would probably have to know which strain it is, right?
    also, this was my first time making edibles, so criticism is welcome
     
  2. Most good herb is between 15 and 20% THC.
    Each gram of 15% herb contains 150 mg THC.
    That 3.6 g is roughly 540 mg THC, assuming perfect decarb and infusion.
    In real life, decarb is imperfect, and infusion destroys some THC, so you probably only got about 60-80% of the maximum THC.

  3. 3.6 grams = 3600 mg
    At approximately 15% THC you have 540 mg of THC
    The recommended starter dose is 10-15mg. Wait 2 full hours before eating more.
    The trouble with edibles is the really wide range of amount required per person.
    10mg is double what my wife needs for a good high and 10mg would make her miserable.
    I on the other hand need more like 300 mg to even feel it.
    Make 50 cookies and they will be about 10mg each. Put a sign on them stating what they are and how many mg per cookie.

    Next time leave the water out as it's not really needed or wanted. Adding Lecithin will give you more bang per gram so you can use less and get the same effects.

    Decarb the weed first 240 F for 40 minutes ( weed on a cookie sheet in oven uncovered )

    5 grams decarbed powdered buds. Grind till flour consistency.
    2.5 teaspoons Coconut oil
    1/2 teaspoon Lecithin
    Heat 220 F for 20 minutes
    Freeze
    Heat 220 F for 20 minutes
    Done

    Add this to the oil called for in baked goods. Blend well and cook normally.
