My Attempt at THC Pills...

marinol isn't natural thc... it's lab synthesized PURE THC... the reason mj is so gooooooood is cuz of the thc and cannabinoids... most of which have not been identified, let alone isolated.... if you use Marinol i hate you.... that is big pharma's attempt at seizing marijuana for itself... i won't condone it's use... and won't associate with anyone who uses it....

that drugs very existence gives big pharma another reason to lobby congress to keep mj illegal... well, congress doesn't have a say in illegal substances, the DEA does... anyways... don't use marinol, don't buy it, i personally get sick just mentioning the stuff...

Easy on the conspiracy theories there....

Marinol is a big step forward... Its intended to help Aids patients eat and help with certain chemotherapies for cancer patients... The FDA cant approve smoking weed for these patients because the act of smoking increases other health risks... Why throw them under the bus...

was this an actual recipe of did you come up with it yourself

Little bit of both - I took a recipe I found here on the site, and altered it to suit what I had around the house.

The pills were a dismal failure - just enough to relax you - no high at all. So I guess all the goodness stayed in the plant material. I'll have to try again some other time, with hash and coconut oil.

That's basically the same result I have been getting with my pill attempts.
I made one batch that was good, and everything else has been mediocre at best.

Have you tried a tincture? I get much better results w/ alcohol based tinctures than I do with any oil extraction.

Vaporizing marijuana is an option for these people...

marinol is just big pharma trying to patent weed...

just like they patentized heroin and named it methadone...

Considering it, how good have your results been? Like on a scale of 1-10, with 1 being no high and 10 being the bomb...

I'd say about a 7-8 in terms of potency, but pretty long lasting. For comparisons sake, I'd rate my thc pills at 2-4.

It's not quite the same as smoking, but it's the closest I have come so far with edibles. If I smoke a bowl after consuming some tincture I'm stoned and couchlocked for at least 6 hours.

I carry it in an old bottle of eyedrops, so it's easily portable and seems to store well.
