I Need Help Fron

I smoked tobacco for about 30 years and quit about a year and a half ago.
I finished harvesting my first grow during the end of 2010.
I used MJ from about 1975 through 1982 daily.

I've returned to it recently after a bad fall ruptured my quadricep muscle and messed up my knee.
Post surgery I was on alot of prescribed pain killers...those were not the answer !!!

Back to my grow... I did not keep my fan leaves, I have a few ounces of good bud.

First I medicated with a cheap metal pipe, then purchased a KIA vaporizer, and lastly the small INCREDIBOWL.

The problem is that I am keep coughing with ALOT of phlegm (COPD).

Should I start researching edibles in which I have no knowledge about---remember , I only have buds. Or, do I have any other alternatives.

The vape caused the most irritation and I did not combust for sure!

I do not live in a MMJ state.

Thank you for any help/assistance/help.

It might be your curing to it's harshness. If you make a Green Dragon Tincture that might work. PM me if you can't find directions to make it. Buds ground up and simmered in butter then strained to remove plant matter for canna butter. Then just use canna butter in cookies/brownies.

I've gotten the same way I'm er in my 50s and can't enjoy smoking hardly at all.
I went to making canna butter 2 ozs to 1 Lb Butter
Funny I used 2 1/2 ozs WW this last batch and it's like eating mushrooms if you over do.
I use a Crock Pot to make mine and keep the fan going on the stove while your making it.
Next year keep all your trim for making it.
We grow 6-7 different strains at a time and just combine every thing togeather,
and always 2 Ozs of Trim and small Popcorn bud to 1 lb. of butter :lol:
Man!! That is THE BOMB!!!:fire:

Off hand with this new batch assuming I'd use 1/10 of a cube (about a slice of butter)
would be about 1.75 Grams.

if you are using straight buds for canna butter you can use a lil over a half ounce per stick 1/4 lb.
Put the butter in a crockpot on high with a few cups of water let it all melt then add in ground up bud.
put the lid on and let it sit on medium-high for 2 hours stirring every 20 or 30 mins.
then switch it to low for 2 hrs and continue stirring occassionally.
then use cheese cloth to strain the butter water weed mixture into either tuperware containers or big bowl that can hold all the liquid. then place them in the fridge and wait overnight or a few hours. when u strain it be careful as you get to the end you need to wring out the ball of weed mush to get the last of the butter out.
then once its all cooled and settled in the fridge the butter will all solidify at the top and you can just pick the pieces out.

and there u have it butter since im guessing u have a lower tolerance. take this as the first thing you eat and wait an hour if you dont feel it try more and find what dose works for you. but be careful too much ingested weed can cause bad trips on people.

good luck man hope that helps!
