First things first, you need some weed. Today I have some Grand Doggy Purps (Indica) which makes a bitching tea in my opinion. I like the nugs that come in this container as they are straight beautiful buds. I can't grow anything yet where I live so I have to rely on the dispensary for my weed. I have my medical card, so it's easy to go pick some up. Making tea is another store. I made friends with the kitchen staff and for a cup of tea they let me use the kitchen oven.
Raw or unheated cannabis flower has plenty of powerful therapeutic effects, but a particular range of heat is needed to convert precursor compounds like THCa and CBDa into THC and CBD – the compounds needed to feel the psychoactive effects.
The heat or activation results in an occurrence where these compounds work together to achieve an effect that cannot happen in the individual compounds on their own. This is also called the ‘entourage effect’ when talking about Full Spectrum CBD products. The entourage effect can be described as the cannabinoids working together to intensify the therapeutic effects of the whole plant.
The heating that takes place during decarboxylation activates cannabis’s psychoactive and therapeutic effects.

So, that's how it all works now let's throw it in the oven. Put it on 240 for 30 minutes and let the baby do its decarboxylation process. While we wait we'll smoke a little of that bud I was just holding as I can't make it all into tea that would just kill 3.5 grams of Purps. Fuck that.
Genesis 1:29
“And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.”
So now the weed is baked, I'm baked and the smoke in here is thick. I'm kind of lost for the minute, I'm fucking ripped, lol. Okay, focus.
I've put the weed into 5 ounces of 99-proof peppermint alcohol as I'm making peppermint tea with it, so why not a little nip with a cup of tea. Each cup of tea will have a shot of 99 in it. I'll probably be a lush and have 5 tonight. I'll probably trip off of the combo and amount of THC activated in the tea as it seems to hit harder when drank, I think. Weed mixed with alcohol has its own effect as well, way different than smoking and then drinking alcohol afterward.
Well, that's all I have for you today, I hope to see some of you tomorrow. Drop me some comments if you bake your weed differently or make your tea different or like to use your baked weed differently.
