Wow. Bravo!!!! If it works out. This will be the first thing i will try,hah. I wonder if i could do like 1/4 weed then 1/2 glycerin,to make it less potent???? How long does it take to take affect after dropping????? Great job peter. Keep updated!!!

Do you HAVE to wait 2 months. What about just a month? take a loss in potency? not accually work???

P.s. Great work peter : )

I love TJ's but also be aware a lot of their stuff comes from China.

You know how the Chinese "farm raise trout in a pond"? They put the chicken cage above the pond and the fish get to eat chicken shit. I'm just real suspect of anything that comes from the low bidder.

We all know what we get in ganja for the low price.

Ok so i'm reading around about these THC drops and other people are using a heat souce but it only seems with the use of alcohol, So let me get this straight. . .If i use glycerin then i dont have to use a heat source. Then with the alc. i have to heat it up?? Im guessing to cook the alcohol out of it?? I think i got it down but anyone to confirm or deny this????

:peace:hey man. I believe the heat with the alcohol provide the necessary circumstances for the extraction of the cannabinoids. In the case of the glycerin, the extraction process does not benefit from the addition of heat to the process. but as has been already stated, beware of the heat - you're not making THC flambe! so yea, dude, be really careful if you're choosing the alcohol route. the temp has to stay below the point where you are actually boiling off the alcohol, cause its the alcohol vapour that occurs when heated too much that creates the risk of the explosion or fire. good luck! :blsmoke:

i am going to sample it maybe every 2 weeks or something to see how its doing. i hope i didn't just waste this weed ahaha. the alcohol method sounds to me just like making oil?? is there actually a liquid after its done?? or is it sticky gooey oil resin like you make with isoproplyn??

:mrgreen:I'm thinking it s like other medicinal tinctures....and I'm goona research a little on this....to see if I can gain a little more insight. seems to me that you are going to have the glycerin with the active ingredient dissolved in it. the alcohol method would have a similar result with the active ingredient dissolved in the solution. oil like honey oil....oh man what fond fond memories that brings back....are the extract - say that you could disolve in the glycerin or the alocohol if that what you wanted to do. the method for extraction to make oil usually uses some for of petroleum distilate
? I think, like butane? But I am going to spend some time trying to read up on this...and search out how they make other medicinal tinctures, and see if we can gleen some ideas for this application. :mrgreen:
