No, i'm not desperate at all. I just like the idea of trying to get as much value out of this stuff as I'm able. I mean, I can afford it and my wife doesn't mind at all, but I don't want this to turn into a $200 per month hobby you know what I mean?

However if smoking the resin ends up creating a negative thought cycle anytime I'm about to do it, I'll just ditch that and go back to slightly more moderation but zero "ugh I guess I'll do this even though it's disgusting" considerations.

I mean if you like it go for it, I'm not trying to create an air of scumminess about it, it's more the health aspect. It's not really that efficient, and keep in mind that a good chunk of what's in there is combustion byproducts and other nasty stuff. When I was scraping tons of resin it definitely made my lungs feel like poo poo.

Tbh if you're already vaping and saving the abv weed for cooking that's already much more efficient than your average daily bowlsmoker.

Nah, I get it. I'm sure most if not all of you guys are more familiar with these things than I am so I take the suggestions to mean more than my newbie ideas do.

It probably took me about year into smoking before I realized that no matter how desperate I am, resin is just too awful. I judge the poo poo out of resin smokers. Shame!

I didn't clean my pipe for a while and was basically feeling sick 10-15 minutes after every bowl. Realized I was probably getting a ton of resin with every hit, cleaned it, feel a lot better.

But yeah I'll smoke some resin if the times are hard. Haven't needed to since college though.

i smoked a ton of resin when i lived in pittsburgh in the late 90's and early 00's because the whole town would just go dry from time to time. the last 10 years ive been in nyc and california so no need

though i would not be surprised to walk into a dispensary in like 5 years and see some kind of retro themed "second generation joint" or a lovely metal pipe prefilled with somehow fake-aged resin that comes with a unbent paper clip as a "Gen X Stoner Pack" for $45

I still can't believe that in 12 weeks, weed is going to be legal in Canada. Seems surreal. As someone who has never been given a choice of more than two strains before and just went with the stronger smelling one, what is buying from a bud tender like in a dispensary? Is it like I think it is, like "Hey, I'm looking for a creative, euphoric high without too much couch lock, what would you recommend?" Any tips from people who have bought from them before? Was the amount of choice overwhelming?

At the beginning of legalization, there are generally a whole lot of lovely budtenders who don't know crap. So take anything they say with a grain of salt. Once things start working themselves out, in about a year, budtenders will be hit-or-miss, but there will likely be quite a few good ones that can make good recommendations.

I don't know about up there, but in the US, the website / app Weedmaps is used by most dispensaries. You can go online and see what they have in stock before you go, and then you can read about that particular strains effects on Leafly. It's also awesome because it lets you compare prices between dispensaries before you decide where you want to go.

I am also a ”sampler,” and I definitely do the thing where I buy several strains in a single gram to figure out what I like. But I also have the tolerance of a baby, so a gram goes a long way for me.

unless you are in BC where weed has been so normalized for so long. the people who work Vancouver dispensaries definitely know their poo poo and have for quite some time before official legalization

smoked an incredible amount with my friend from out of town last weekend and im taking a nearly two week break until my gf goes up to the northeast for a wedding and I'll have an entire weekend to myself

that means a ton of bowls + avb edible for two days straight lmao, my tolerance resets pretty fast (I only smoke maybe 2 maybe 3 times a week on average, fast metabolism, exercise a lot) so I fully expect to be loving tripping balls and will probably be documenting the day

anyone got any good ideas for some avb stuff that isn't just mixing it in a peanut butter spread or something

Mayo is pretty good. Make an oil first then just make the mayo like you normally would. Smokes rough though. I’d definitely use water.

I've never tried making cannabutter with avb but i'm sure it'll give you some acceptable levels of thc so give that a try

If it's already been vaped you can literally just mix it with peanut butter and eat it on a graham cracker or whatever, no cooking necessary

that's what I usually do (and am about to do right now actually)

Do what you want - but imo you're going to change your mind on this in short order. I'm not trying to judge or say ahh you're a bad person at all, I'm just saying that poo poo is disgusting tasting, smears/sticks everywhere, and prone to giving headaches and hacking coughs.

I've tried putting AVB in smoothies. It gave me horrendous weed farts and got me so high I had to go to sleep. Then I tried a pressure cooker method, mixing it with olive oil in a mason jar and straining it afterwards, then making cupcakes. That worked alright but it takes a while and wasn't very strong. Is it possible to make AVB tincture?

Made a tincture too, I called it Chill Juice. Was very good, mostly just a relaxer. I used polish rectified spirit but everclear would be fine too. Next time I’d really pack the abv and then just take via dropper in 0.5 ml increments to tolerance.

I don't know how much olive oil you used (or how long you cooked it), but I do it in the crock pot in a mason jar all the time. I generally use 1 Tablespoon of AVB to 4 Tablespoons of coconut oil, or whatever oil you choose. I also cook it for around 12 - 18 hours on the low setting on the crock pot. I'm not sure how much using the pressure cooker would speed it up.

Sorry, but the people have spoken.



If you have a keurig and a re-usable pod, you can put in a tablespoon of virgin coconut oil and a tablespoon of finely-ground AVB mixed in along with the coffee grounds when you go to brew a cup. French press is also suitable. It works better with a drip coffee machine, but messier to clean out due to the oil. The high ranges from a mild buzz to a joint-level.

Put the AVB in a jar with some alcohol, put that jar in a slow cooker or pot of boiling water for some hours, then strain as necessary.

I made some really sketchy and probably hosed up coconut-canna-oil with 1/2 oz of avb and will probably be making it into ice cube tray peanut butter+chocolate cake pops at some point this week. Will give trip report ASAP.

Yeah, it's not that complicated a process. I got a plenty effective tincture by covering a couple grams of AVB in Everclear for three hours.
