What is the Reason of processing the leaves?

I got another couple of questions for you Mr extract man.

Exactly what is the Cannabinoid holding capacity of the various oils? I've done multiple infusions on the same oil when recovering medicine from a dry ice shake. When I'm making infused oil from flower, I only run two cycles.

Since I now have an ExtractCraft, I can do Ethanol extractions. This last dry ice shake, I did not try to recover the medicine that was still left in the buds with and oil infusion. This material is still going to have quite a bit of chlorophyll in it. Do you think I can do a decent extraction using a quick wash method? It's definitely not going to be anything that's vapeable but it could be used in edibles.

I haven't tried @Mañ'O'Green green salve.

I use a mix of decarbed and uncooked small buds for the wide range of cannabinoids and terps.

Topicals: The carrier matters. Lots of people use olive oil. It's tried and true.

Pure MCT holds the most and it permeates skin easily. It's much runnier than other oils. I haven't succesfully made a solid compound with it. Good if you dispense with a small pump bottle. It was my favorite for a long time but can be messy.

Next best, and what I use for salve, is coconut oil in it's solid form. It has lots of MCT in it. Like @Mañ'O'Green recipe, you'll still need beeswax. Oh- refrigerate the compound for a day to solidify it.

If you start with a concentrate, you have to do volumetric mixing ie 1 gram extract in 2 gram oil and blend well. Then that 2 grams in 4 grams oil. 4 in 8, 8 in 8 in 16, etc.

I give it @ 1/4 teaspoon per gallon from seedling to harvest….

Thanks Frank. That's what my micro dosing of Recharge comes out to after 4 watering's so that makes it easy to remember.
