I have made differents batches witch no clear conclusions because of lack of lab tests, and as i use to the cannabis effects maybe i think it´s very weak ....

I wonder what do you think about dry the weed in the oven with 105 C or 221 F in a pyrex for 15 minutes (no covered)

Let to freeze it and up the oven to 120 C or 250 F and is covered with aluminum foil to put in the oven about 30 minutes.

After, make a quick wash (another question is if it should be better to soak the buds with the alcohol to extract more things for the plant ....) and after filter with coffee filters evaporate very slowly the alcohol ... (maybe around 50 C or 122)


Could you help me please? it´s very important fo fix this for my finances and health.


Have a very good day
Blessings

I would place your herb in an oven safe dish, cover tight with foil. Place in a 240*F preheated oven for 60 minutes. Remove from oven, leave the foil on and let cool.

Then do your wash or you can eat it just like it is. I put mine in oatmeal or peanut butter sandwiches or mac and cheese, make a salad and add it, or whatever.

1 tsp of decarbed weed, does a body and a mind real good. I use the leaves I grow and keep the buds for vaping.

As you are ill. I highly recommend a vape. The absorption rates are better than smoking it.

Good Luck!

I have been using a water butter and fresh picked scrap all of the leaves, no bud. This was frozen within 2 hours of harvest, then 1 pound of fresh wet leaves (frozen) add to boiling water mix well then add 1 pound of butter. This produced budder that tested at 8.9 mg per 1Gram of budder.

? where was the decarb taking place at 212 degrees.

8.9 mg thc9
.1 mg thca

So you know for a fact (through testing) that butter can hold about 9mg of thc per gram of butter?

What was your process after extraction?

here is a interesting page, with the skinny. https://marijuanagrowershq.com/decarb...juana-alchemy/

I do this by setting the oven at 225f and heating for 30 minutes.
I am thinking that the lower the temperature the better the process is but the longer it would take, I would prefer to do it at no more than 115f but never tried. You can make an olive oil infusion by leaving matter in a (sterile) jar of olive oil and placing it in sunlight, for up to 6 months. That would be nice I guess. but anyway, When i am making coconut oil extract I do it the 225f pre-decarb and coconut oil takes 4 hours and I feel i get good results, seems to pull a lot of nice cannabinoids, certainly THC.

sorry it looks like the info i put has already been said.
also, that link above is the guide that I read and basically used as a guide line and i think its the best we can do at present, if wanting to decarb in the oven. it's amazing how it can work in just a few hours. I wrap the chopped bud - leaf - stem in a layer of foil or baking sheet on a baking tray in the centre of the oven. I have only done this with dried plant, not wet. Interesting thread and replies
peace.
peace

Has anyone tried vacuum sealing and preassure cooking for decarb?
Never had to do because i like to slow dry and wait min. 1 month befor smoking my herb but i was thinking if this would work. Maybe better working with solid stuff like hash or bho.

[Swamp Thang]

I would be leery of pressure cooking buds sealed in plastic vacuum bags, because the high temperatures might result in chemicals from the plastic infusing the bud, with unknown effects on the health of those who later consume the contents of the bags.
