Does anyone have a good recipe for this?

I am trying to make some that we can use for insomnia.
My current (untried) process,
14g of "Garliccot Bubblegum" THC 9% and CBD 15%
combine that with 28g of "Sour Brulee" THC .56% and CBD 15%
I plan on creating an infusion of coconut oil using both of these.
I probably try about 125 ML of coconut oil and 1 TSP of sunflower lecithin and put it in size 00 capsules.

Does this sound like it will work?
any sugestions?
TIA
Mike

Why all the CBD? Your not gonna get a sedative effect from CBD until you break like 600mg
To much TCH keeps me awake, that is why I'm going the CBD route.
I may also try to "double decarb" some High THC flower and see if I can get some CBN to make me sleepy.

420 day so I thought I’d try to make some CBN tincture.
Started with 28g of home grown Grand Daddy Purple. Coarse grind using a paint stirrer.
Decarbed at 240 for 2 hrs (hopefully that converted the THC to CBN.

Put the full OZ of decarbed flower in the “Potency Pod” of the Levo, then added 250ml of “everclear” and started the infusion 4 hrs at 160. If this works at all I’ll try a longer infusion at 130. “Magical Butter Machine” has a recipe for tincture using 1oz of bud 1 cup of alcohol, and infuse at 130 for 8 hrs.

Figgure a 20% loss in THC/CBN from the infusion process. GDP 17% to 22% THC

According to this article I should get about 35% of TCH converted to CBN.
https://www.periodicedibles.com/blog/how-to-make-cbn-edibles
The video at the 14 min mark shows how they converted TCH to CBN
They show about a 35 to 37% conversion of the THC to CBN

Using this formula:
28g x 1000 = 28000 mg 28000 mg x 17% = 4,700 mg of THC
4,700 MG of THC converted to CBN at 35% = 1,666 MG of CBN and 3,094 mg of THC
Then figure 80% infusion using Everclear, and final product would be 2,475 MG of TCH and 1,332 mg of CBN
After evaporation of alcohol adding 125ml of coconut oil and 1 tsp of sunflower lecithin.
This filled 154 .9ml 00 capsules.

If my math is correct that would give each capsule 7.78 mg of CBN and 14.46 mg of THC.
I can tell that there is not the “high” from THC and the CBN does seem to cause drowsiness.
So far this does seem to help with sleep.

My biggest concern in all of this, I have no way of testing the THC/CBN levels.
I’ll have to see if there is a lab in my area, and what it would cost to test.
