cooking a ecig tincture?

My PG/VG tincture is finally done after two months. I put the plant matter under a microscope and it is definitely stripped of all resin glands. I just used this tincture sublingually about 2ml. 30 min in was nice. I'm at just about an our now and it's great! No decarboxylation. The effects are still heady. I'm an hour in so ill see where I get.

I also just dissolved some concentrate made from second run BHO ethanol extraction in some 100% PG. I used .10g wax with 1cc PG. Still testing effects.

How is the potency when vaped in your ecig now that its done!

I am starting 50vg/50pg. Did ya'll say heat everyday? Could i just put in a jar and set it outside in the sun? I read a thread about cooking and the guy said he used soy lecithin to boost the potency. I wonder does this have the same effect in the vaping as it does when you cook it as brownies or cookies. I got all my product on ebay even the soy lecithin which comes in liquid form all together about $35. My plan for mix was to oven roast my bud, then mix in the vg/pg into mason jar, seal it and open up in a month. Too simple? What do ya'll think? I guess i will experiment with the soy lecithin in a month, maybe try to cook it in before i strain it or leave it in mix for the month then strain. I would love to know haven't been this motivated in a long time.

You don't want to ever use lecithin with a smoking/vaping product, only ingestion.

Good to know thanks. Now i have plenty for cooking.

K.. so i'm having a lil trouble finding my ingredients... the only Propylene Glycol i can find is at farm and fleet by the gallon and it's apparently for cows, made by "Agripharm". will that work? also as far as the Vegetable Glycerin goes, can i just use 100% vegy oil, or do i actually need to look for a bottle of VG?.. whatever the hell that is

Were you able to find these products loacally or did you have to buy off line? what brands? thanks

ebay i got it all on ebay. averaged $6 per 8oz bottle of vg or pg same with tincture bottles except they are much cheaper. now it has been one month and i can honestly say i get a buzz but it only lasts about 20 mins. and it takes a bout 15 big hits to get it. going to add another sack and let it sit for one more month. one thing i will do differently on next batch is use a 70 pg 30 vg mix because it doesnt seem to burn quite as easy 5050

If I wanted to use a half oz how much of the liquid part should I use?

Hey guys not trying to go all off topic on your thread or anything but i recently made my first glycirine tincture with abv to be used in my e cig, and a few hours after i strained it and put it in the fridge i noticed a white foamy substance on the top of it that seems to be multplying so i am stating to wonder if i have contaminated the tincture some how what do you guys think?

I just wanted to add that it seems to be the same for me, it seems like i have to smoke a lot to get a pretty short duration of effect, i used 16 grams of abv and 16 o/z of glycerine when i made it and this is my first one so I'm not sure how strong it should be, but I'm starting to wonder if maybe my crock pot over cooked it or if maybe the e cig is not the best delivery method for the tincture. I get a lot of vapor and it actually taste pretty good mixed with my Irish mintz from mad vapes but i only get stoned for a very short time, and i have read that when it comes to e cigs most of the nicotine is absorbed through your mouth and throat not really so much in the lungs, also when reading about tinctures they typically are used by dropping some drops under you tongue, so i am starting to wonder, by vaping the tincture aren't we really just wasting what ever % of the tincture escapes our mouths in the form of vapor?
