Now, I've been working my ass off in the heat for the past 2 weeks before summer ends and I'm forced to go back to hell(school). I was thinking of picking up 7-8 grams of some chronic with a friend, but he wants to shove them in the oven with brownie mix. Now we've cooked brownies before, used about 3-4 grams of mid's and it didn't do anything for us. He's so hung up on feeling a different high, but I don't see what the big deal is. Do brownies really feel that much better than smoking? Another concern of mine is if we fuck them up like last time, what a waste of weed/money. But he's set on the idea What do you guys think, are brownies worth the effort/weed?
Although I've never tried eating weed, from what I've heard it's worth it. Just find a really good well known weed-brownie recipe online and follow the instructions with the utmost care. I'd give it a shot if I were you.
Yeah we used butter last time, but also a entire batch of brownies for 3-4ish grams so we could only eat about 2 each which did nothing.
check out the cooking with marijuana video i put up in the video links section here.. if nothing else skip to the end after the first 5 minutes...
That's your problem for sure, dude. Try to cut the directions/ingredients in half and then use your 7 or so grams to make the butter. The high is fun for sure, and if you've never tried it, you totally should at least once. I like it a lot, but I'm just too fuckin' lazy to cook with pot.. especially when there's a bong right next to me. Also, I'm not saying this was your problem, but I had a friend who used to constantly make ganja-butter and fuck it up because he didn't let it simmer long enough and extract all of the THC; just something to be careful of.
heres the link.. http://www.hipforums.com/modules.php?name=Videos&file=viewlinkinfo&lid=527&gid=0 like i said the first 5 minutes is informative,,an the last couple are comical..
ya that cooking with marijuana videos rock they have a whole bunch of them. They do a really good job of teaching
you pry didn't eat enough. eat 3x what you would smoke. I'd say make it so each brownie has .6 grams, then you can eat 1-3 at a time.
melt some butter, but on a low heat & put in all the weed you want, groud up fiiine, make normal brownie mix & then add the cannabutter (which shld be cooked til its goldeny, mm the smell is soo nice) good brownies blow my mind
Thanks for the video hippiehillbilly! Very useful. I may just have to cook them up this time instead of buying a pack of papers
i´ve cooked with weed lots of times and never had it NOT work. it´s an easy process. if unsure how long to let the butter simmer, err on the side of "too long," but definitely dont burn it. what i usually do is grind it up as much as you can - 1/2 oz. of mids (nuggets) or 1 oz. of schwag - and put in as much weed will fit into as LITTLE butter as possible. you still want some liquidy butter so it can simmer properly. put the pot of weed-butter in a larger pot that´s filled with hot/boiling water (you can use the handle to "hook" it on the edge). this way, the butter cant be burnt from the direct heat. simmer for 30-45min., stirring pretty freqently. strain out the plant material with a tea strainer (metal mesh), using a fork/spoon to press it, or a cheesecloth, etc. use butter in whatever recipie you want. 2 hours later, you can´t see cause your eyes are practically shut and you´re stuck to the ground. have fun!
