Green Dragon question
    #22371594 - 10/13/15 01:14 AM (8 years, 3 months ago)

So I've been reading about green dragon and am currently making my first batch.
It just occurred to me that none of the recipes I've read involve any sort of heating.
I am under the impression that bud needs to be heated to be active? (THCA -> THC).
Am I missing something? :confused:

You are correct about being heated, to an extent. When I looked into making green Dragon for tinctures, some recipes called for decarbing before mixing the cannabis and liquor and others didn't. The thca will convert to thc in the liquor but it takes a long time. Like a month or more. You can shorten the time it takes to make green Dragon by decarbing and then mixing. I believe the last recipe I looked at said it would only take about 2 weeks.

Oh okay, thanks for the info! I already have my cannabis sitting in a jar of liquor, do you think hot water baths will help at all?

Okay recently i took a bottle of "diesel" (strong ass shite) and filled it with stems and some bud (mostly stems).
Not really filled it also, about half way. Like the stems from 3 oz's.
I didnt do anything but let it set about 1.5 months. And it worked.
I try not to let placebo get the best of me either. I felt fucking awesome.
So relaxing. I was gonna try it once and throw it out if it didnt work. I got fucked up like 5 more times
With my gf and im making more now.

It tasted like ass. But so does liquor in general. It tasted like liquid weed haha

Hi,

Bake in oven at 320 degrees for 5 minutes.

Add to grain alcohol in mason jar and boil at 170 degrees in a water bath for 20 minutes. Be careful, grain alcohol is highly flammable. Use a candy thermometer till you get the hang of it. Strain and dilute tincture with water, juice or soda. Consume.

It will, just be careful. If it's in a mason jar pop the lid a bit so the pressure doesn't build because it would basically be a bomb. A Double boiler is what you want.

No lid on the mason jar for boiling. Also, grind up before baking in oven.
