    sup guys, i just made a batch, and was asked to post some instructions..

    1. grind up your stems
    2. put a pot on with about 2 cups of water and get it to a rolling boil
    3. put your ground up stems in and turn the heat to LOW, put a cover on it- we'll check up in 5 minutes.
    4. after your 5 has gone by, i suggest throwing a tea bag of your favourite tea.. i just used cammomile, but green tea, white tea, really any tea works (its for the flavour). so once you put your tea in, turn the stove OFF and cover your pot, let it steep for 5 minutes.
    5. using a tea strainer, or coffee filter pour your tea into a pot.

    ta da :)

    5 easy steps to an awesome tea :)

    cheers guys & enjoy that body high!

    I didn't think thc was water soluble? Does the heat from the water enable it to?

    I'm interested to hear how this works for people. I've been throwing away shit loads of stems for almost 3 years now since I started smoking, it would be great if there was a way like this to make use out of them and have it actually work.

    hope it works out all well Stonedasshit + Slater

    and Anthony, at the very least you could be making QWISO if you're not into body highs.

    How... does this work at all? I KNOW THC isn't water soluable. I thought that the only way to do it is using a non polar solvent, most teas have either some sort of citric juice (non polar solvent) or milk (fatty content).

    I dont think it would work, but placebo effect FTW
     
  14. #14 Slater420, Oct 17, 2009
    Well After reserching before i try this tonight I found that you need to add a teaspoon of butter or a little bit more...and that makes it more potent so thats what ima do..ima still come back and tell you guys how it went.
     
  15. #15 Stonedasshit, Oct 17, 2009
    Yeah that was some dank tea. I had a full body high, and paired with some smoke my head was going nuts too.

    Great use of stem here +rep

    its true, add cream to your tea for a creamed tea and its a bit more potent.
    but it works without..
    its the steeping process.
     
  17. #17 Stonedasshit, Oct 17, 2009
    hmmm.. what sort of cream are we speaking of here because I only know of whipped lol.
    I added some milk for tastyness and I wasn't let down, but I dunno if it affected the potency.

    This will absolutely NOT work. Wow Im surprised nobody has really said anything yet. Complete placebo. You MUST put butter, oil, something with fat in it to bind to the THC. The water itself is NOT going to pull out any thc. Its the same like any other edible.
     
  19. #19 whitekush, Oct 18, 2009

    i'm not too sure its complete placebo..
    can you placebo a BODY high?
    i'm not too sure.

    but perhaps the process of steeping makes it work? no clue.

    You might be drinking chlorophyll/ chemicals/ other shit, thats why you have a body high. Because there sure is no thc in there at all...
