I think the point is to take a minimal amount of pharmas. There's a few folks on here that have horror stories about using and coming off some of this crap they feed patients as medicine. It's not really meant to make you " better " but more manageable. Then you're hooked and you need x,y, and z to get off it. Mj doesn't appear to have this problem.

I've used Tilray's Cannatonic which is 14% thc & 7% cbd in the past, but it gave me a bit of a buzz about the 3 hour mark, I could work through it, but it wasn't the best situation. They don't have any of that right now, so I switched to the Afghani which is 7%/7% and I'm not getting that mid-dosage buzz. I take one every night at bedtime and can use them during the day if I need to, and still do my job just fine. I also have some other higher thc ones that I can use strictly for pain relief instead of the opioids.

I make it into capsules. They take an hour or so to start working, peak about 3 hours later and don't wear off for about six hours, unlike vaping or smoking that hits right away but wears off in 2 hours or so.

Thanks. I cannot smoke. I've never tried making capsules. Effects sound similar to my cookies, but everytime I make a new batch I have to play with the dosage. I'll have to look into how to make capsules, but I'll also need to find a strain that will let me function when I need to. Sometimes I only need 1/4 of a cookie, where sometimes I'll need 2 for the same relief.

Someone is always trying to fix something that isnt broke.
Instead of spending a fortune trying to re engineer something that has managed to survive this long without intervention.

How about everyone work together and solve the rubics cube thats already in your hand instead of looking for new problems.
The mmar or whatever the fuk they call it now needs a serious overhaul before the start designing a new wheel.

If your trying to make weed that doesnt get u hi just buy that shit from flin flon.
There crisis averted.

I see anything wrong with weed that don't get ya high to help your issues. Don't think that would make all pot turning the same. Then if ya wanna get high buy some or grow some for recreational partying. If I could feel the way I felt before my injury .... that would be very cool. whether it's taken in a cap or concentrate or smoking a couple doobies a day as long as it worked. I would then buy for rec myself.

Wouldn't kief extracted from wet bud be all you need to consume without getting high?

As long as you don't dry it, heat it, or apply pressure to it. I know this is being done with high CBD strains for treating children.

I just did a dry ice wet kief extraction but already heated and pressed it into hash. Wish I had saved some unpressed kief to test. But with harvest a few weeks away I guess I'll get another chance.

I think you are right as long as it is not heated or mixed with any kind of oil or fat our bodies do not get the physco active effect from the thc. But this is just my opinion.

Peace

Well I know the high CBD wet kief is being mixed with coconut oil to keep it from drying. Do you know what it is about mixing with oil (cold) that would cause it to decarb?

No I do not think CBD's will decarb from cold only from heat.From my understanding when mixed with alcohol oils or fats is makes it more readily available to your blood stream through your fat cells causing the high. But when you use a cold water or kief extraction using a tumbler etc and put that into gel caps there should be no real high. You can do this experiment buy eating a bud, you will not get any kind of a buzz unless you have alcohol in your system then the thc becomes dissolved and readily available.

Well I'll be experimenting for sure when I have some ripe wet buds again. All my current buds are dried.

I found this article which is more in line with my understanding of decarbing: http://www.marijuanagrowershq.com/decarboxylating-cannabis-turning-thca-into-thc/

It says that soaking in alcohol will not decarb mj. Presumably the author is talking about wet buds? I don't know, just trying to learn more so if anyone has other links I'd be curious to read and learn more.

Yeah, I've made alcohol based tincture a few times and you do need to decarb it before you put it in the alcohol.
