My butter has always had a green tint to it. Never had issues with taste or potency
What to do while waiting on your plants to flower??

I can't function properly without my edibles.. I have different recipes and different oils for all sorts of applications too! My favorite method by far for medicating is edibles because of the same reason you seem to dislike them. They last a much longer time!
Processing my trim and AVB (Already Vaped Bud) into butter, oil and tinctures takes up plenty of time between harvests!
Dosage control here is key, otherwise you will definitely dislike the "edible high"
I have 6 hour peanut butter cookies made with canna butter I typically make with trim..
these are used for a daily (functional) buzz for pain relief and anxiety
I have 5 hour coconut cookies made from coconut cannabis oil I make from trim / flower / AVB..
these are for depression and anxiety and provide an uplifting energetic mood boost
I have 8 hour fudge cubes made from a combination of my canna butter and canna oil..
these are for days off, enjoying movies ,video games and curing boredom!

Maybe i'll save my trim this run, instead of let my buddy have it...
Hmmm, i do make a MEAN almond joy cookie with coconut oil... just never made it "special"

That sounds awesome! I find that a good coconut oil extraction is preferable to the butter I make of similar / same strength as the oil. It may just be my own opinion, or maybe body chemistry, but from what I've experienced, and what I've read on coconut oil and lecithin (used in making coconut cannabis oil) both these ingredients are more readily and easily absorbed and processed into the body. This seems to aid in a gradual onset, duration and gradual reduction of the effects. The butter on the other hand seems to come on much quicker, peak earlier and although the duration is somewhat equal, the reduction of the effects seems to be more of a crash than a gentle down slope.
My oil is the easiest for me to make, and I've been experimenting with it as a butter substitute in many recipes. Both my butter and my oil take roughly 30 - 45 minutes to begin taking effect, but the oil creeps on so slowly you barely notice at all until you're already well on your way.. discovering it as though nearly an afterthought, whereas w/ the butter it hits you like a slap to the face, like one moment you realize you've got a nice buzz and a second later
I'm SO HIGH

Shit me and my buddies, whenever we talked shit to each other, it often started with this one.
"bring out the gimp..."
"the gimps sleeping"

I keep going back and editing right after i post with slight additions.. I'm currently experimenting w/ the strength of a new vegetable glycerin tincture I made w/ Girl Scout Cookie trim.. 5 drops under the tongue every half hour until the desired effect is reached.. Then label the bottle properly so I've got a clue for next time. Makes great gifts form the holiday season

I've just started growing, so a lot of what I have to say here is tested at least once by me personally, or I wouldn't bother wasting anyone's time having them read it, but it's all due to the fact that I research this stuff at least 5 hours a day, every day. For lack of a traditional day job, I make use of a lot of the time trying to come up with "new ways of doing old tricks" in an attempt to improve on, or otherwise adapt proven methods so I can use them to my advantage. For example, not many seem to flower under T5.. but could never figure out why, so.. I did it / am doing it right now. (depending on when you read this post)

I really would like to try some coconut oil this next go around, I like the health benefit of the long chain fatty acids in coconut oil,, some say cancer healing is higher with coconut alsoThat sounds awesome!

That sounds like my first brownie from my original batch after my first successful coconut oil extraction. I ate half, waited an hour and ate the other half.. 2 hours later it was like taking a low dose psychedelic. I was spinning in circles with my arms out in my living room making helicopter noises. After that, I had a much better idea of how to dose my edibles.. with caution.

Try a pure sativa or a sativa-dominant strain for the brownies. I like the idea of coconut oil and look into avocado oil as well.

I don't get how that had anything to do with my question but we can grow 12 per patient and have up to 72 going and 15oz dried cured weed..
that's why you keep it labeled non cured not smokable until its 'ready' as your total weight is only for usable Maryjane
