Decarboxylation

uhm...i wouldn't put your plant in the oven

LOL I mean the buds. When I grew my wife was always like cut me down some or no ass so I was like ok dear. Usually I dried the buds in a paper bag in a microwave at 1/2 power. I'd always get fucked up more with a weird uplifting high than when the buds were died. I tired it in the oven with really chopped up fresh buds and that too was not bad.

I want a straight up THC high with no couch lock chemicals. So was thinking if I decarbed say Diesel at 6 weeks that would be some potent THC high.
 
minimal is a subjective word that you are backing with a reference to lab results? Please use numbers when referencing lab results. The kitchen full if high people is also subjective. No amount of lost terpenes is acceptable. Vape first at low temp. Also the temperatures Steep Hill Chose are slightly high. The patent is 15 minutes at 225 followed by one hour at 200. Steep Hill even recommends lower temps to preserve what they call organic compounds.

the numbers are in the lab tests no? , total cannabinoids 29.3% to 27.4% after 60 minutes is minimal , it's how people have been doing it no?. how much actually remains is more then 90%+ according to the lab results in numbers
 
just for shits and giggles...

Make the oil.
Set it in an Oil bath increasing heat to 235 F slowly...watching bubble action and dissipation(they become large and less often....
Once it reaches 235 F, Leave there for 5 mins...they say 10 to 15 mins for full decarb but hey......
works for what I use it for. anything over 70% is 'good enough for the chicks I know"

:)

hope that helps.

again you are misinterpreting what you read. If you start out with 100 grams of 20% thca bud at 10% moisture, what is the weight of the resulting decarbed sample. The moisture will be zero so you will have lost 10 grams in moisture alone. What else vapes away in weight? Those numbers you have don't indicate this. These losses are significant and measurable.
 
Take a whiff. Those are cannabinoids becoming airborne. Yes what remains is decarbed. How much actually remains is the question everyone should think about before cooking a big batch of cannabis. There are ways to do it with minimal losses. This is not the way.

So u weren't talking about the amount cannabinoids lost?

clear question... Show some numbers if you want to reference something to verify your statement of minimal losses.... Just facts are needed not more questions.. What are the losses? Every loss must be accounted for.. If you read data.. Please interpret data with numbers and your minimal can be clearly understood.

Im sorry your having trouble understanding what I'm saying but according to the test results the total loss cannibinoids is clearly stated , we are talking about cannabinoids and nothing else . So I ask u again were u talking about the amount of lost cannabinoids or not. I'm not talking about moisture, terpenes or anything that u brought up afterwards it's not hard.

Ps if anybody can clarify or help onthe topic that would b appreciated too cheers
 
In 1 gram of bud that is 20% thca and 10% moisture there are 200 mg of thca. After cooking in oven with no cover, how many mg of thc remain? Less than 200mg. What do you think your data indicates this number is? Now we can calculate a percentage loss of THC. What is the new overall weight? Less than 1 gram of cannabis remains. Now we can calculate the percentage loss in bud mass. Please interpret your data and fill in the two missing numbers. Then we can quantify the losses. Thanks for your patience.

Cool dood , good convo!

the first test which is with the keif show 0% moisture before decarb and the same after so it does show no moisture loss according to the lab tests, even the second test which is with trim show very little moisture 3.4%. So the tests do account for moisture differences
 
with a solo vape I take 3 or 4 hits from each bowl (level 5) and save the remnants for eating.. they are plenty decarbed.. on an average day I end up eating about 1g for every 2-3g that gets vaped, so I have a bunch in reserve in case I run out of puffables..
