Items required
1oz bud
4cups(1 quart ) food grade glycerin
Crock pot
Cheese cloth
Grind ur buds up(i used an 1 1/4 oz of bud)
Put them in the crock pot and cover them with the glycerin and mix it all in.
Keep it on low for 3 days stirring when u can remember.
After 3 days let it sit and cool then strain into mason jar.
Double up your cheese cloth when you strain so it doesnt tear.

You should be at a minimum cutting your glycerin in half. You're diluting the dosage potency. I bet your THC content is around 5% per mg with that much glycerin. I use a pint or 16oz of glycerin per ounce of material and I get 9.5% THC which is about a third of a dose. It's my understanding that 27% THC per mg is one dose. Does anyone have any input on this? The thing with glycerin is that the boiling point is so high you cannot really reduce it to increase potency like you can with very forgiving ethanol. You need to have your ratios pre planned.
