i got it about 2 days ago, its really crystal- coated and the smell has decreased significantly since i picked it up,although its still pretty dank. I don't know when it was cut, and i hear that baking will only increase the potency of fresh stuff. Ive got about 4 grams, and i want to make this last. Ive also heard that you cant bake with shake, that only nugs work. Is this true? Also, whats a good amount to bake with? and how long/temperature? I appreciate any feedback.

That's not at all true--in fact, I'd suggest grinding any nugs into shake first.
You know that, in order to bake, you'll (probably--depending on your recipe) need to cook the weed into some oil or butter, right?

You're going to smoke it after baking it, right?
I've done this a couple times. It should make the weed a LOT faster-burning and the high will probably hit you so hard you get a little twitchy.
I'm not sure if it just gets faster burning or actually becomes more potent, but it certainly shouldn't decrease the potency. Give it a shot.

i believe it converted some of the thc based compounds which do not get you high into thc that does get you high. I imagine it heats the acids up until the bonds between some of the molecules dissolve and it reverts to thc.
the idea is to bake it at a temp around 250 degrees which is significantly less than the vaporization point for thc. When you cook food in the oven it doesnt catch fire.

El correcto.
Heating it converts some inactive alkaloids into stuff that gets you high. I had some rather wet, freshly cut buds a while ago, put them in the oven and it turned them incredibly strong.
