The Thread of Cannabis Connoisseurs

[FlyingMongoose]

All in all it was a great morning. I can definitely see myself partaking again.

Welcome to the club. Honestly it's not my thing so much anymore. But I did have fun the few times I took part. One of which was a viewing of who framed Roger rabbit... Another was wizard of oz (but a dark side of the rainbow version)

Watching The Fifth Element high is trippy because my mind is focusing on the background sounds and music more than the dialogue.

Seems like it. Gotta love that they slipped it into a budget bill.

It makes sense though, the "War on Drugs" is costing the US Billions in spending, and Cannabis is one of the biggest ones.

The only result of the bill itself is that federal agents can no longer raid dispensaries in CO or WA.  But it does mark the first piece of legislation that was, if not pro-, at least aligned with the pro-marijuana movement.

It also marks the point where elected officials realized they have to stay up with the issue to remain popular and electable.

[/quote]Which is kinda huge because it means they can do business safely and uninterrupted. Also you're forgetting about OR and AK (well technically those aren't until 2015/16).

Sister got me one of these for christmas

[Greatbacon]

Yo how much does one of them cost?  Is it actually easy?  How much herbage do you need to make somethin useful?  These are v. important questions i no.

[Didzo]

I highly doubt you'd be getting the most out of your active ingredients using only a single 10 minute heating step. Otherwise you might as well grind it up and mix it directly into butter.

[Dr. Zaius]

I think it's like a $50 setup. I put in about an eighth, and I used half a cup of coconut oil. Used half of that to make cookies, which were middling potency. I took the quarter cup remaining infused oil and ran it through the herb twice more, and the greenness greatly improved, so i will be baking the 3-times-steeped oil soon probably as brownies. It really works though, even if you just run it through the herb once. I recommend doing it multiple times to allow the oil to soak up as much as it can, cause the herbage is useless unless you are going to actually put it into some food.

The device itself is pretty crazy and uses heat and pressure to force the oil and boiling water up a tube into the middle area where the bud sits, then up further into the top pot which catches the finished oil.

Me and my gf ate a cookie each yesterday, then an hour later went and ate at a good mexican place, and by the time we were finished eating we were both blazed. fatty foods actually increase the effects of edibles, apparently.


is good do recommend


edits: I have the '1 stick' of butter model, not '2 stick'. And I used coconut oil instead of butter for various reasons; it is vegan and I've read that it absorbs thc better than butter does, so win-win. Any oil should work.

lol I just looked into it on their website, and they're based out my old hometown in CO.

Nice bong buddy!  Now lets see what you are packing in that.    ;D

[Dr. Zaius]

Hell yeah I wish I still had my bong, it was the perfect size to slide a one-hitter in and rip onesies all day through vitamin water or some other lightly flavored beverage

[Dr. Zaius]

proper double post, ordered a new bong
