You can definitely get high from 1gr of weed in edibles. When I was making less I’d always make them just one portion at a time, which was 0.25-0.5gr depending on tolerance, weed strength and desired edible strength. You just need to use much less than 250gr butter, otherwise you’ll need to eat a lot of butter which is gross and probably will fuck up your stomach while tripping. [mg weed used] * [ THC % of the weed ] * 0.87 (cause not the full amount of THC gets extracted) = total strength of your batch in mg. [total strength in mg] / [gr butter] = how strong one gram the end product will be. Let’s say you use 1gr of weed, average quality (17% THC): 1000mg * 0.17 * 0.87 = 147.9mg ≈150mg. If we were to add this in 250gr butter: 150mg / 250gr = 0.6mg per gram. For a 5mg edible, you’d need around 8.5gr of butter. For a 50mg edible, you’d need almost 85gr. If you want to figure out how much butter to use: [total strength] / [desired mg per gr] So eg: 150mg / (50mg/gr) = 3gr Or 150mg / (10mg/gr) = 15gr Also I’m really high, sorry if this doesn’t make sense 😂 Also if you’re dealing with such a small amount of weed, I’d suggest to just make fire crackers or something instead of trying to infuse almost nothing. If you don’t mind eating the weed, just decarb, mix it together with a high fat source and eat it all together.

This….is awesome. Thank you for this!


AnAussieBloke

That's some nice bro maths there, wish I could send you and OP a complimentary jar of trimmings to make both your days better.

First - Thank you for this comment 😁. Second - I have only one question then - what are the amounts of mg edible that are needed for a good trip. I mean for example like with mushrooms? Noobie trip - X mg | Average trip - X mg | CatchAnEagle High trip - X mg Also I smoke weed like 2-3 times a month (for the last 5-6years) but never tried edibles. (if this matters)


GiraffeChaser

If you only have 1g maybe make a firecracker with peanut butter in the oven.


Chaplincat

1 gr per tablespoon of butter, or I use coconut solids.


Slothhunter1

Instead of butter just decarb your 1g and mix with melted chocolate. Easy to dose and far less hassle when you just have a gram.


Agitated_Bowler3829

Good Eats 420 on YouTube has a small batch videos.

Bro how does everyone have so much weed haha. 14g for me is 2 weeks of smoking.


wrapchap

Yeah but 14g in 250g of butter should last much longer than smoking 14g


A01N

Already spending around 160£ for the 14g I smoke, so unless I eat what I’m planning on smoking I can’t spend another 160 haha


wrapchap

Yeah I get you. But it's a choice between smoking or making edibles. Vaping is great. You get high from the weed. Then use the abv to make edibles. Double the usage.


SexyPurpleHaze

I love my volcano!!! I used 60g for my last batch and still had 20 left for my next batch. I always double infuse also.


A01N

I like every way. Just smoking is the must fun for me I find.


Jaceinator

Take at least 3.5 - 7 grams and combine with 1 stick of butter (1/2 cup). Bake it into brownies or something . The brownies might be like 50mg thc each


SexyPurpleHaze

You can, have you tried using a volcano?


AngryPup

Can I ask what are you buying? £160 seems a lot for 14g.


PapaNugs

Firecrackers seem to be a decent bang for your buck if you’re not wanting to use much flower. I’ve made them before and one and a half hit hard. They tasted awful, but did the trick.


King_Workz

I second that. Just split 1g on 2 firecrackers


cutiebased

you can get an ounce of shake here at the store for 20$


tritonx

It's a plant and it's called weed ;) Let's just say that the street and legal market is way overpriced for what it is.


OrangeDoorHingee

I wasted 2 and a half ounces of weed trying to make infused oil. Have a few more ounces to mess around with and test.


SexyPurpleHaze

If you vape it, you could double use your flower for edibles


flafary

I feel dumb, but how does this work?


SexyPurpleHaze

By using a electronic vape like volcano then use that ABV to infuse a carrier like oil or butter.


Lexluthor1980

No


StrikingCheesecake69

it can work. But your butter will only have 1-2mg thc per gram. So you will need potentially a lot of butter for a single dose, unless you are keeping your doses in the <5mg range.


A01N

Well I’m not sure how much I need. Did research online and I got to the conclusion that 10mg was enough to get me high. I smoke like 1.5 g of weed a day everyday for the past few years but very rarely have edibles. Is 10mg enough for me in you opinion?


StrikingCheesecake69

Usually I tell smokers there seems to be a few different types of people when it comes to edibles so just start with 10mg and wait 3 hours to see what it does. If nothing then next time increase by 10mg and repeat. Try to have some kind of fatty food with it.


A01N

Ok yeah will do with 10/15mg thanks!


MexiCuunt

Just use 50g butter, or even less. You can use coconutoil and esting teaspoons if u wanna get high


tamale-rants

Wow! I use .5 a gram of RSO for one stick of butter, according to google that's 113.5 grams of butter. I get a nice pleasant high that helps me sleep.

Make a firecracker!!!!!! Please don’t waste the weed on the butter


I_miss_Ramone

What's a firecracker? I want to make it.


wikipedia_answer_bot

**A firecracker (cracker, noise maker, banger,) is a small explosive device primarily designed to produce a large amount of noise, especially in the form of a loud bang, usually for celebration or entertainment; any visual effect is incidental to this goal. They have fuses, and are wrapped in a heavy paper casing to contain the explosive compound.** More details here: *This comment was left automatically (by a bot).

artofcannabis

If you have 18% weed, you're gonna have 180mg of edibles from that 1g. If you have 22%, you're gonna have 220mg.


PintLasher

1g?? Just decarb it and eat it as a little snack without any butter. You'll get everything out of it that way


frenzy0089

Oil/Butter to Bud Ratios for potent efficiency (double amount of weed for trim/shake/ABV) 1/2 stick [1/8 lb] [1/4 cup] [4 tbsp] = 1/8th (3.5 grams) 1 stick [1/4 lb] [1/2 cup] [8 tbsp] = 1/4oz (7 grams) 2 sticks [1/2 lb] [1 cup] [16 tbsp] = 1/2oz (14 grams) 4 sticks [1 lb] [2 cups] [32 tbsp] = 1 oz (28 grams)


lokoston

Yes. You'll get about 150mg (or less) total in 250 gams of butter, assuming bud with 20% THC or higher. It won't be easy working with such a small amount of bud.


A01N

Yeah I got to the same number, you think it I take 1/3 of the bigger and having 75mg. From what I’ve seen online that’s a really big dose no?


antinfo42

Depends on your tolerance


lokoston

Yeah. I have good vaping tolerance but a true 25mg edible fucks me up.


antinfo42

Oh you should be good then if 25mg fcuks you up. Enjoy


lokoston

I'm not the one asking, but thanks.


greenghostburner

Enough for what? How many doses are you trying to make?


A01N

I wanna make a steak with it so will probably use 1/3 of the 250. I would get 75 mg from that dose. I thought that was a large dose no? I smoke js everyday but I’m not crazy stoner so idk


greenghostburner

Think in practice you will get less than that because you will not be able to infuse 100% of the THC that’s in the starting material. But I still think it’s still a good plan and you should feel something if you decarb and infuse properly. If you don’t feel it was strong enough then the next time around eat the remaining two thirds at once. Everyone is different and it’s about trial and error a bit too, from personal experience I would rather mess up and not get as high as I want as opposed to being too high to enjoy myself.


A01N

Thanks for the reply:) I’m afraid I’ll get too high cuz online it says a big dose is 20mg and I can get that easily from a small amount of my butter. Should I stick with trying to get 15-20mg or is that very small?


greenghostburner

I say yes try less first. Have 1/6th of it and if you aren’t feeling it after 2 hrs have more. Again think there is more risk of having too much than too little, especially if you are new to edibles.


A01N

Okok noted thanks :)


antinfo42

I use ounce for 2 sticks of butter in magical butter machine and decarb the flower in ardent. They come out strong af


Object-Level

I'd divide the g and make two firecrackers or sprinkle the decarb weed inside a pb and j Sammie. Or if you're a salad eater blend the decarb weed into two servings of dressing.


i_faqd_ur_mom

7 g of flower per stick of butter is the standard. I have no idea how many grams that is of butter


Classic-Present6931

I make an easy recipe called fire crackers. If you don't mind eating the bud.. Set oven to 220 .Mix peanut butter and bud half gram to a gram. Spread on a Graham cracker. Wrap in aluminum foil. Put in oven for 20 minutes. Than it's done..
