Cannabinoids are the “goodies” or the compounds that allow medical marijuana to do its work healing your mind and body. They include THC, CBD, CBN, CBG, and THCV, but not CBGB.
I had occasion to observe two interesting phenomena of cannabis consumption in the last 24 hours. Neither one was particularly new to me, but it occurred to me that I may not have explicitly described or explained them in the past, so I thought they might help someone understand a bit more about how cannabis […]
Someone on Reddit just asked me a question, one that I’ve heard many times before in different ways, and my answer has always been “I don’t really know”. But the more I thought about it, the confuseder I got. The question was, “What’s the maximum amount of THC you can dissolve in vegetable oil (like […]
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 […]
Q: I’ve noticed that smoking high THC strains seems to cause anxiety or paranoia. Is this normal? A: Yes, this is quite common.

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 […]
It’s been said, “The devil is in the details”. It’s true that it’s devilish work to get everything perfectly right, and I do try, but I don’t claim to be perfect. But still, it’s a worthy goal to be as correct as possible, when people are depending on what you write. So I often agonize […]
So, you want to know how to get through your day using cannabis, but without smoking, without vaping, and without getting too stoned to work? What you need, friend, are Canna Caps, which are made by extracting cannabinoids from ground medical marijuana into coconut oil. Once you start working with these, you will want to […]
It’s the Little Dipper by Crock-Pot! Let me tell you what’s so great about these things: They are small and hold only a limited quantity. That may not be great for cooking a big meal, but it’s perfect for processing a small amount of cannabis. It also subtly encourages you to make a reasonable amount […]
The cool new site Weedist.com got my attention by publishing this amazingly detailed chart that lists not only the cannabinoids in our favorite plant, but also their boiling temperatures in both Celsius and Fahrenheit, effects and cautions, and even terpenes and toxins for good measure. Best of all, you can click the top of any […]
I am very gratified that so many people love and appreciate my cannabis cooking recipes ( How To Blast Off with Nutella Firecrackers is currently closing in on There’s No Such Thing As Marijuana for the top all-time article here). But I figure that almost everything can be improved, so that’s why I came up with this […]
