Extraction Question regarding coconut oil+cannabis

[realcarlos]

Hello everyone. I have a question regarding coconut oil infused with cannabis.
I have an aunt who is in pain all the time. Has all sorts of pills that she must take. She is also diabetic and does not drink alcohol (thought about doing the green dragon)

Before I use an ounce or so of bud, is there a way she could sample the cannabis infused oil without using so much bud?

Is it possible to mix 3 grams of bud (3grams of bud with 40 grams of oil)
If so would that mean mixing in water, coconut oil and bud(would it better if I were to grind it and put in the oven for a few minutes) From there mix it all in the slow cooker for 24 hours


Any help would be appreciated it. Also thought about doing butter but thought coconut oil might be better

Hey Carlos, grind up the 3 grams spread it out on a cookie sheet and put it in the oven at 220F,106C for a few minutes. You just want to leave it in there long enough to completely dry the buds. Then cook in your slow cooker with coconut oil and your good :thumbs: Make sure not to give her too much, 2 grams of dank will floor me.

Hi realcarlos,
Coconut oil infused with cannabis works very well.
You do not need to decarb it (in the oven) when you use the slow cooker.

I grind my cannabis up and you need to stir it often.

Look here at how I make No Nonsence oil www.autoflower.org/f80/cannabis-salve-healing-14705.html

Also...the whole plant heals, you can use bud, trim, stems and even the roots.

dosage depends on your starting material and not getting it too hot.

This is a safe method.

I will be glad to answer any questions you may have.

Hi Real Carlos,

Hello, I was just wondering? Are you afraid that your aunt will not, or does not like the "high" associated with cannabis? Is that why you are thinking of such a low dosage?

I am diabetic, and I have pain associated with that disease. I don't take the meds the doctors want me to, but that is me. I am not advocating doing anything against your doctors orders. I am speaking what works for me. I ingest either stem/root oil, or whole plant oil that has been cooked at about 220. my blood sugars would be normal if I could excercise. so my diet is ammended as well. I get reduced pain with the oils, and there is not a lot of thc. Use male plants if you can. Or even a small amount of bud. It is important to me to use thc and cbd. From everything I have researched, the whole plant is the key, cuz everything works together

Topical rubs can be made as well, try to include roots if you can, stems and leafy materials, bees wax, coconut oil, vitamin e,a little epsom, and some lavender for a holistic approach. There are recipes here on this site.

buena ventura

Thanks greenthumper, root66, mastereekman and J.M

I am afraid that she will not like the "high" she has never smoked before, so I was thinking of a low dosage. What do guys think the ratio of water/oil is needed for 4 grams? After it has all has been infused could she spread it on bread?

I understand your Aunt not wanting the high.
If you can get a high CBD strain, add stems and trim/leaves that will help her.

The amount of water doesn't matter it just keeps the material from frying.
I would probably start out with a cup of coconut oil and she could take 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon. If that is too much/too little you can adjust it.

She can put it on toast or in oatmeal whatever she wants ...even take it plain.

She might like it better if you made it with butter to put on bread
or you can make canna-milk to put in tea or coffee.

If you make it weak so she doesn't get high she can take it more often, imho, getting the medicine in her any way you can will help her.

Right now I am making whole plant oil for Eek.
He has been taking stem or root oil every day and says it helps with pain and fatigue.
My next batch will be made with butter because I don't like taking the oil plain.

You can play around with it, make small batches til you find out what she likes. Flavor it with chocolate or whatever.

Thanks root. Would it need to be grinded?

 

[Root]

I grind mine in a coffee grinder - not too fine so you can filter out the plant material.
