    Hi,
    I am curious, how many people tried MJ in forms other than smoking?
    I had some friends who made MJ candy, it was nice :)

    That's pretty wicked. At first I thought this was going to be another thread about that shitty ass chronic candy stuff that they were selling at ozzfest and shit. I was chillin' with someone and they dumped about a quarter into the food we were eating, thankfully they knew what the hell they were doing or else it would have just been a waste of weed, but we were really stoned already...I like the high that I got from eating it better than the high from smoking it.

    how is candy made?

    im imagining right now...

    getting some alchohol full of thc
    adding a tonne of sugar, and some flavouring. i recon citrus would work.

    simmering it down to a thick goo

    putting it into some little sort of mould for a lolly, whatever that may be, and putting a little stick in the middle to hold.

    then letting all the alchohol evapourate, leaving flavoured sugar + cannabinoids

    yay!

    You would be swallowing the saliva that has the THC in it, so it would make it to your stomache even if it wasn't absorbed through your mouth and then it would be just like putting bud in food. Damn that sounds like it would be cool...

    of course it would be absorbed through your mouth. that's why underneath the tongue is so good for dropping acid---the mouth is a good (indirect) access to the bloodsteam and thus the brain.

    i've eaten pot many times--i like it a lot. gets you much higher. i'll make desserts with weed butter or i'll cook fresh herb into some soup. mmm.

    your recipe sounds good :)
    the one i tried was different, and i am not totally sure about all the details, never did it myself but i saw it done. essentially it involved condensed milk (in metal cans, all chinese and russian shops have it and also aldi has it in illinois, the best ones are russian ones with yellow labels), it is mixed with the stuff (any quality would do i think, but must be made into powder) and sugar syrup and a little jellatin (sp??) and this is cooked until it gets thick and then you can put them in e.g. ice forms and when it cools down it gets hard, well not totally hard like yours would be but kinda like soft candy.

    spastic monkey, it wouldnt work if you were swallowing the thc from teh lolly.

    its possible that it gets absorbed into your bloodstream.. but its not often reported to.

    simple test. powder up some dank weed, or some kief, and suck it under your tongue.

    I think it has to be dissolved in oil (milkfat in my example) to work right.

    Factoid:
    THC is only oil and alcohol soluable.
    Meaning, absent of oil or alcohol, you ain't gonna get off by consuming it, not even if you ate an ounce of the finest Humboldt.

    The best way to use pot in cooking is to first dry/cure the bud then soak it overnight in water (to remove the chorophyll taste).
    The re-dry and crumble it up in just enough butter to cover it, and simmer it for 30 minutes (NOT boil).
    Then strain it through a t-shirt into another container. Store leftovers in a refridge. I keep mine in a tupperware container, plainly marked with a big green X.
    Now you have happy butter, which you can use in a variety of ways--anything from using it in reciepe's or frying food in it or spreading in on crackers.
    I once fried up a magic mushroom omelette in happy butter.
    Last year we made some happy ice cream. We sauteed some ganja in cream, poured the cream into one of those ice cream makers, added vanilla extract and peaches. Mmmmm.
    You can also crumble the ganja into a bottle of booze (I use tequilla), keep in a warm place out of the sun, shake it up several times/day for a week, the strain the plant material out and make happy Strawberry Margarita's.

    I'm not gonna to try this, but an expert told me that you can even get high from
    an enema to which happy oil has been added, since yur asshole is lined with mucous membranes.

    whats with people insisting that it needs heat or a certain condition to work?

    have you people ever tried eating a spoon of ground up bud?

    ive heard of many cases where they have, and that its just -less- effective, but not -in-effective.

    ive never heard of anyone eating a bunch of weed and jsut shittin it out again.

    i mean it seems someteims that people dont even know what it means when something is 'soluable' in something, in context of drugs especially.
    it means that the chemical can be put into that substance and it will disperse evenly given the right condition.
    this is one of MANY factors that result in something being digested and absorbed into the brain, people treat it like it means that you only absorb it if its already dissolved in oil or alchohol?
    no, it means that is going to be MORE EFFECTIVE in being absorbed since it follows the oil or alchohol to the point where it is absorbed. from there however, alchohol for one is absorbed and thc gets absorbed by its own merit. oil is absorbed into the body differnet to thc or alchoho, since it is not absorbed straight into the blood stream.
    so how do you propose it being impossible for thc to enter your blood stream if in the end, each particle gets absorbed differnetly, at differnet rates, at differnt points int eh stomach, each point being acessable by any chemical that enters the stomach, and each point absorbing individual molecules and not volumes of liquid by themselves?
    in some cases of course there is a catalist involved in making sure something gets absorbed. for example, with DMT preperations (i cant spell it, the one that starts with A) contain chemicals that prevent the very reactive drugs form breaking down int eh stomach.
    however, since the alchohol gets absorbed almost instantly but the thc takes minutes in the double digits to take effect, it is clear that the thc would be broken down as soon as the alchohol is absorbed, if the case was that alchohol preserved thc from being destroyed in your stomach.

    if you have a source which contradicts this, or swear that youve eaten large amounts of humboldt and not got stoned, share, please. i want my hypothesis proven incorrect.

    btw it should be even possible to smoke a joint into your rectal cavity.
