|  Cannimist - portable descrete oral measured dose This seem like it might be a very nice way for a portable discrete oral administration of a measured dose - anyone familiar and can comment? VICS Cannamist/Tincture Recipe, and Instructions on How to Convert THCA Into THC A tincture is an alcohol-base solution of a non-volatile medicine (in this case cannabis). In this case alcohol is not only the solvent used to separate cannabinoids from the plant matter, it is what makes this type of application (particularly in fine-mist form) more bio-available and therefore effective. In whole-plant cannabis, THC content is expressed as THCA (tetrahydrocannabolic acid) prior to decarboxilation into THC, which takes place when cannabis is heated during cooking, and smoked or vaporized ingestion. THCA is a mild analgesic and anti-inflammatory but does not have good affinity with our CB1 receptors, so in order to make a THC-rich tincture that has many of the same therapeutic effects as smoked ingestion (including rapid absorption, quick relief and ease of self-titration), we must convert the THCA in the plant matter into THC prior to extracting it through an alcohol soak. Below are detailed instructions based on a unique VICS research project that will allow you to convert the THCA from your bud or high quality leaf material into more usable THC with very little loss through vaporization. Dry heat conversion of THCA into THC: Preheat oven to 325°f exactly (purchase an oven thermometer if you're not sure). Take cannabis leaf or bud and spread in a thin, 1 inch layer on a clean cookie sheet. Put in the oven for 5 minutes exactly, remove, and transfer to glass or ceramic container to cool. Tincture/Cannamist Recipe: Pack a mason jar loosely but completely with converted cannabis product; add a few sprigs of fresh organic mint. Add alcohol (50% is preferred, but 40% vodka works just fine) until the jar is full. Seal, shake and put in a dark, cool place for 2 weeks. After 2 weeks, strain mixture through fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth. Add 2-4 tablespoons of organic honey (to taste, but without over-sweetening the mixture). Pour into bottles fitted with fine mist spray tops. Dosage: Initial Dosage: Spray two times on the inside of the cheek, and wait 30 seconds before swallowing. Wait ten minutes and if desired effect has not been reached, repeat on the opposite cheek. Wait ten minutes, and repeat until desired effect is achieved. Dosage will vary between users, but should remain fairly constant once established. Effect will last for between 1-2 hours. Repeat use as needed. If you feel dizzy or disoriented, immediately discontinue use. Do not operate heavy machinery or drive during use of this product. | ||||||||
