Cannabis-infused butter can allow a person to get the benefits of cannabis in an easy to use format. The butter can be used on toast, in the place of regular butter in recipes, and many other applications. The butter will be strong so go easy if you're new to weed butter.



The cannabis can be placed on a baking sheet and put in a 240-degree oven. It should be allowed to stay in the oven for 40 minutes, turned a couple of times to make sure it heats evenly. It should become dry and should crumble easily.


On the stovetop boil a quart of water. Once the water boils use 4 sticks of butter for every ounce of cannabis. Do not add the cannabis to the pot at this time, just the butter.


Once the butter has melted add the cannabis. Go crazy or be chill. Turn the heat down to the lowest setting and allow the butter mixture to simmer for around three hours. To test if the butter is done: the top of the mixture looks glossy and thick.


While the butter is cooking it is important to prepare a container to hold the final product. A heatproof bowl works best but a plastic food container can also be used. Put two layers of cheesecloth over the top of the bowl. Secure the cheesecloth in place with string or with tape.


When the butter mixture is finished on the stove carefully pour it over the cheesecloth. Once all of the mixtures are in the bowl remove the twine from the cheesecloth. Roll it up for all of the four sides and squeeze the butter through it until there is nothing more to come out. This will help remove any plant material from the cannabis.


Allow the cannabis butter to cool. It should cool for around an hour. After this time put it in the refrigerator until the butter is completely solid. Any additional water left behind should be removed.


Once the cannabis butter is chilled and solid it can be used in just about any recipe. This butter goes well in both sweet and savory dishes. This butter is great for use in a chocolate chip cookie recipe. The butter will have some of the earthy taste of cannabis but it will add a nice flavor to any dish.


Yum!

Weed Makes Me Antisocial: Help!

Many people can relate to the experience of “hitting a wall” socially. Introverts, you especially know what I mean. But when self-enforced isolation is weed-induced, does that mean it’s time to reconsider a few habits or routines? Maybe even take a break from weed entirely?

Cannabis has long been negatively associated with laziness and haziness, and although that isn’t always the case with cannabis consumers, it also isn’t that far off from the truth if you haven’t optimized your regimen. Marijuana use, in particular, has occasionally been linked to various mental health and behavioral effects, such as anxiety, paranoia, and antisocial behavior, while also being linked to alleviating these same symptoms. So it's important to understand how cannabis works with and for your body and needs.

Iranian Weed: Epic Mag Strain

The sprawling mountains of Iran bloom with native flora every year: elms and ironwood trees, tulips and daffodils, even something called Dwarf Eelgrass. But scattered throughout the forests and flowerbeds, like in neighboring Afghanistan and Pakistan, another flower has been thriving for thousands of years: cannabis.

Through Iranian genetics sourcing, cannabis in Iran is collected from specific regions, emphasizing the unique and wild plant varieties. Mag Landrace is just one of the Persian nation’s homegrown strains, beloved for its intense indica effects, deep green and purple hues, and abundance of trichomes, resins and oils that make it ideal for smoking and hash-making. It’s finally in the states and available for patients and casual users alike to discover and delight in, and here’s why.

Sex on Shrooms: How to Prepare Yourself

If you've tripped on psilocybin (a.k.a., magic mushrooms) before, you're already well aware what an intense experience it can be. And if shrooms can take an average activity like listening to music to an entirely different universe, you can probably imagine what sex on shrooms might feel like.

As intense and amazing as mushroom sex can be, it can also be an incredibly negative experience if you're not careful. Most psychotropic substances are best experienced when you curate the right set and setting, and sex on magic mushrooms is no different.
