I'm sold!
Ordered the Beeswax and will have to also figure out some additions of essential oils for the smell.
I also ordered a digital thermometer to test liquids.
Updating some results as a newbie to this.
I described the 1st two raw bud treatments above.
Two more treatments were also with raw material. Won't be doing it with raw material anymore .
3rd treatment I decarbed the buds and did not rub it in as well so I really can't say why but the 3rd treatment showed little or no benefit. Could be something I did wrong.
The 4th treatment I went with a larger quantity than the previous times. About 4 grams. Did not decarb and rubbed this one in more thoroughly and it was to much. Worked great for the pain but got into her system and she had that uncomfortable experience as others have described. Not sure how to explain it, maybe like a couchlock physical experience IDK.
I made two batches so far with the crock pot set on low.
1st time about 10 grams of bud and one cup of coconut oil and cooked it for about 12 hours. It came out pretty weak.
Second batch was made with one cup of cocunut oil, one cup of water and about 18 grams of decarbed buds for about 7 hours. color is much darker. I noticed a constant bubbling when I would stir while cooking with the water added. Dark water seperated nicely from the hardened oil after sitting in the fridge over night.
I have a long way to go as a newb to this. Busy tending to my solo cups in the grow challenge lol. I'll be happy if this second batch shows a better result. Planning on increasing weed and water next time while maybe using a smaller amount of coconut oil IDK.
Here are a few pictures.
The crockpot used.
The finished product. 1st attempt is on the left.
The material used in the cheese cloth that was used to strain the oil, 1st batch is on the left.
Pictures taken with a digital viewer.
These are from the 1st batch. Close ups of the material left over in the cheese cloth.
Quite gooey.
I'm not sure how it should appear after cooking but this second batch of material looks better to me IDK.
