I veg under a 1000W MH and it almost seems like my plants don't stretch enough....barely any spacing between nodes so things get really dense.

u not wrong,plants love a good led veg. tight nodes and great leaf health. the leaves proper reach up under led glow
from my research u will prob find the plants in middle or inbetween the mh and led do the best as plants love a good mixed spec light and love cross lighting
Yes sir exactly hehhe I have 3 pineapple express cuts and it is painfully obvious which one is just under led which one is in the middle and the one that is just under the 400 ;). I love experimenting !!!

I would gently grind the buds and use a 1/2 lb of butter and simmer on low-a crock pot works well-for 4 to 5 hours and allow to cool some before filtering, other wise you'll burn the shit out of your hands.

Really 4 to 5 hours , I hear people saying boil maximum of 24 hours, will 4-5 hours really do the trick? Its my my first time making it

Loads of ways Nas.
Personally I think it is better to clarify the butter you use, or go to the Asian Supermarket and buy Ghee. To clarify check goodle (easily done).
Once you done that then crumble the weed in probably around 50-100 grams of ghee/clarified butter - i would go nearer 50g). Then slowly cook for an hour or so, adding some water helps the butter not to burn out as well. If you add water at the end of cooking you'll need to the let the butter cool and refrigerate until it seperates from the water. I think others probably cook slow enough not to bother with water and then just filter out the green....I am sure a lot of others will chime in.

Yeah I can get hold of some ghee is there any pacific ghee? And the method that ur saying is the same way as curious old fart meaning water in a pot with the ghee in it bring to low boil add bud but timing is about 1 hour, is that right?

So is it better to make butter and then just add it to everything you plan on cooking like brownies and cakes and what not?

P.s if I do the butter method, dose it matter if the butter is salted or unsalyed?
unsalted works better IMO

I have also found that cheesecloth folded over a few times works really well as a filter :)


If you want to spend the extra money, just buy Coconut Oil.

It is a solid at room temp, and has a higher fat % than butter so it can hold more thc.

No need to clarify, and you cook the coconut oil in the crockpot the same way you do the butter.

Cook/bake with the coconut oil just as you would butter

Lol, Nobody has any input on taste. And will any oil work for this. Say if i wanted to do Olive oil. and then will the heat that i cook with over cook my thc?

You can use olive oil, but the consistency will be different. And olive oil has a very strong taste. TBH when i made cookies with the coconut oil, they tasted BOMB. And they were devastating too!!

D's right about clarifying the butter...and I use unsalted.
What I produce in 3 to 5 hours of cook time is devastating....any more cook time is wasted electicity.
I've notice that you can cook the cannabutter (in a recipe) up to 400 degrees without destroying the thc, but I prefer to keep it under 350.
