THC Gummies

Post by TommyT »

Ingredients
1 3-ounce box Jell-O Gelatin Dessert powder
1 pkg. Knox unflavored gelatin (7.2g)
1/4 teaspoon citric acid
1/4 cup corn syrup
1/3 cup water
1-inch silicone candy molds
Oil cooking spray
Dosage that you prefer of RSO add a little Everclear (180 proof) alcohol if it's too thick to pour

Instructions
1. Combine Jell-O, unflavored gelatin and citric acid in a medium microwave-safe bowl and stir to combine.
2. Add the corn syrup and water, and stir gently with a soup spoon until all of the ingredients are blended
together. Stirring too fast may add air bubbles to the mixture, so keep it slow and sweeping. Let the
mixture sit for 5 minutes so that the gelatin can bloom.
3. Stir the candy syrup gently again, then microwave it on high for 30 seconds. Stir it again, then zap it for
another 15 seconds. Repeat heating it for 15 seconds 3 more times for a total heating time of 1 1/2
minutes. If air bubbles begin to form on the surface of the gelatin, stop heating and stir gently. You don't
want any bubbles in the syrup if you can help it. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes. Give the solution a
gentle stir every couple of minutes and you should see it become clearer over time.
4. Add your RSO and gently stir
5. Spray the bear molds lightly with oil spray.
6. Pour the candy syrup into a measuring cup with a spout, then carefully pour the liquid into the bear
molds. Don't fill each bear all of the way to the top. Leave a little room in each mold.
7. Let the candy sit for 30 minutes, then put the molds into your refrigerator for another 30 minutes.
8. When the candy is firm push each piece out of the molds and arrange them on a baking sheet or in a
large storage container so that they are each standing upright. Let them sit this way for 48 hours, then lay
them on their backs for 24 hours. This process will help the bears dehydrate so that they are chewy like
the originals. Depending on your climate, your gummy bears may have shrunken enough after 72 hours.
If not, leave them out for another day or two, until they are chewy. Toss them around every so often as
they dry out. When they are chewy enough for you, seal them up in an air-tight covered container or ziptop
bag. Keep them stored in a sealed container and they should last for a couple weeks.

Toss gummies in granulated sugar to keep them from sticking together (add a little citric acid to your sugar at this point if you want sour gummies)

The other day when I was high I solved one of the world's greatest problems.
Unfortunately five minutes later I forgot what I was doing.

Here is how to figure dosage.
I'm not sure what website this originally came from.

Leaves have anywhere from 0 to 5% THC
Some people say ¼ to 1/3 of the bud percentage.

HOW TO CALCULATE THC IN CANNABIS
You don’t have to hire an accountant to work out how much THC is in your bud. But there are a couple of (mostly easy) calculations we need to make.
We measure THC by the milligrams (mg.) So first, we need to convert our flower weight (grams) to milligrams.
1g = 1000 milligrams
Then, we take the THC% and calculate its weight in milligrams. Let’s calculate the THC mg for 1 gram of flower labeled as having 15% THC:
1 g = 1000 milligrams
1000 mg X 15% = 150 mg THC
Theoretically, you have 150 mg of THC in the whole gram.
Using the same example of 15% THC, if you wanted to calculate THC content for 1/8 oz or 3.5 g:
3.5 X 1000 X .15 = 525 mg THC


HOW TO CALCULATE THC DOSE
Now that you know how to calculate the amount of THC in your cannabis flower, you can easily determine individual doses if you want to make your own edibles. For the sake of consistency, let’s stick with the flower we just calculated, and make some brownies. So you infuse the 3.5 g of cannabis flower in 1 cup of oil or butter, which means you have 525 mg THC.
But the recipe calls for eight tablespoons of butter, and there are 24 servings in the recipe.
Here we go again with the math:
8 tablespoons = 1/2 cup
1/2 cup = 262.5 mg THC
262.5 ÷ 24 = 10.9 mg/serving
With a few taps on the calculator and some well-placed decimals, you’re well on your way to understanding how to calculate your THC dose in your cannabis flower.

1 gram = 1,000mg. 1 gram of 93% purity = 930mg THC. 930mg THC / # of edibles you want to make = amount of mg of THC per edible

Also here is a neat dosage calculator:

The trick to that is let them dry for a few days. Lay them out on a plate and let them air out.
They get sticky if they are too wet and you put sugar on them. Then the sugar melts.
You can leave the sugar off and coat them with corn starch. The corn starch keeps them from sticking together.

Yes weed oil concentrate. I use 95% alcohol (Everclear) to soak the weed in for a few minutes. Pour off the alcohol and evaporate almost all the alcohol. Then you are left with mostly oil. Don't evaporate ALL the alcohol or you won't be able to pour the oil. It gets too thick. (REMEMBER: Alcohol vapors are explosive! Do outside or have lots of air circulation.)

Oh BTW, when you eat one of these it takes about 45 minutes to get into your body. So don't eat another right away.
