What type of edible and dosage?

    Hi,

    I have a non-smoking friend who has cancer, that has asked that I acquire some weed for her. She has never done it before and although I have smoked plenty and have eaten a few edibles, I have no experience preparing or dosaging out quantities for ingestion.

    My connection is lagging and I want to give her some medication. I only have about a spare gram of chronic level weed on hand and wanted to know what would be the best application for this weed in terms of edibles?

    I was thinking of just making a highly potent butter tincture?
    Or should I make something like 4 brownies and just levy out 1/4 gram in each?

    She is in her 40s, has loss of appetite and pain.

    Thanks!

    Theres a thread in the edibles about a tincture, use that method. It involves soaking the bud in everclear and than cooking the alcohol out of the oil. This will give you the best extraction for your situation

    I made some of the capsules in the bad kitty smiles tutorial for a family member suffering from brain/lung cancer and they have done wonders for her pain, appetite and sleep.

    I used 1/4oz shake/trim to 1/4 cup coconut oil. That made approx 60 1ml capsules. She has been taking 6 or so per day. So a little less than a gram of unprocessed mmj per day.
