As a heart patient, I follow a specific protocol if I think I’m having a heart attack. Felicity has asthma, and she has her own protocol for escalating her medications when she has an asthma attack or allergic reaction. Both of these have as their final destination the emergency room, or at least a call […]
Category: Capsules/Tinctures
Learn how to make and use Canna Caps — cannabis or cannabis oil in capsules — and edible tinctures, sometimes called Green Dragon or Gold Dragon. You can even make these with AVB or ABV!
It’s Harvest Time! Buy Your Buds Now
Now, my friends, is the time to buy buds and other fresh material. Why, you may ask? – because October and November is harvest time for outdoor cannabis plants, at least here in California. Using Leafly.com, Weedmaps, and the websites of individual dispensaries that we have visited previously and liked, we research who has what […]
Felicity and the Green Tentacles
So today Felicity was under some stress. She was dealing with a sick cat, our son getting ready to go off to college, and some financial stuff (which she hates doing, but she’s really good at it). When under stress, her “special ability” kicks in, and she begins releasing stored cannabinoids. But the financial stuff […]
Making Frankenstein Oil With the Magical Butter Machine
My dear wife Felicity has been having more than the usual amount of trouble sleeping lately. Although her daytime cannabinoid requirements have not changed (one or two capsules still get her through the day), she’s been needing higher doses at night due to higher amounts of stress. Since we generally make our capsules fairly “light”, […]
How To Make THC E-Cig Juice Using MBM Glycerin Tincture
When we reviewed the Magical Butter Machine, I used it to make a batch of glycerin tincture, and then added, almost as a throwaway line, that “this needs just one more step to make e-cig juice”. I’m glad that so many people are careful readers, because a number of them have been noodging me to […]
Katching Up With the Kushashians
Sigh. Life isn’t always easy, even when you think things are going pretty well. Or some would say…especially when you think things are going pretty well. I haven’t written anything here in about six weeks, not because I didn’t have anything to write about, but because I’ve been overthinking again, I guess. I felt like I […]
Magical Butter Machine Product Review (Part 2)
In Part One of this product review, I was really excited about the potential of the Magical Butter Machine. In this part, you’ll find out why! Here’s what I used to make my first pound of cannabutter with the Magical Butter Machine: 14 grams of mixed marijuana buds 4 sticks of butter 2 tablespoons of soy lecithin […]
Magical Butter Machine MB2 Product Review
What would you say to a microprocessor-controlled, high quality appliance that claimed it could make top quality cannabis-infused butter, edible oil, and tincture in a fraction of the time of normal methods? After you got finished rolling your eyes, you’d probably roll a joint, smoke it, and think about how great it would actually be if such […]
One Reader’s Experience Making Canna Caps
This is a great response to my article, “How To Make Your Own Canna Caps”, that a reader known as Chuy left in the comments section, but I thought it was so good it deserved to be seen right here. I didn’t think you could cram so much potent goodness into one capsule! Nugs and hugs […]
CBD Tincture For a Happy Family Danksgiving
So here it is almost Danksgiving. It’s the middle of the night here right now, and I’ve just finished making a special “emergency” batch of CBD tincture for Felicity. Felicity gets quite anxious at family events, especially big ones like Thanksgiving when we get together with our older son’s in-laws. They’re quite a traditional and […]
