What should I *not* buy at the dispensary? [CT]

My daughter bought some strong concentrates to vape, and it ruined her tolerance very quickly.
Now she, as a fairly new user, needs more herb than I, as a long time user.
Careful with the concentrates.

Many of us greatly prefer edibles for sleep, so you might consider those, but dispensary edibles are hit or miss.
Don't overdose, because they can take 2 hours to kick in.

 

Mixing into food is totally unnecessary. All you need is the herb and some cooking oil.
We Recommend Coconut Oil as it has no flavor-taste of it's own and enters the body fastest of any cooking oil.

Decarb any cannabis product you intend to eat as it's needed to activate it prior to eating.
It's just weed on a cookie sheet in the oven. 240 F for 40 minutes. It's active at this point and eating even the raw weed will work.

Mixing it with just enough cooking oil to fully wet the weed is the next best method.
While this does work cold some slight heating will merge the oil and weed dust better.

My standard Recipe is as follows.

5 grams Cannabis Product ( decarbed ) Can be weed, Hash, Kief, Wax, Shatter.
2.5 teaspoons Coconut oil
.5 teaspoon Lecithin
Heat 220 F for 20 minutes
Freeze
Heat 220 F for 20 minutes
Done.

This makes a very potent oil that doesn't require very much of it at all to knock your socks off.
Take extreme care with early dosing as it's easy to take to much and wind up way more stoned then is comfortable. I started new users at a single drop and a 2 hour wait before administering a second drop. 2 more hours and then a third drop.
While very slow this is the safest way to find the ideal number of drops you can take.

The small stainless steel cat food dish makes a great tool for this as it won't shatter with the thermal jumps from oven to freezer and back to oven.

I use this oil for 95% of my daily medications and have for the last 5 or 6 years.
