    Making weed gummies

    I searched and didn't see a thread and thought, wtf?

    I stopped buy a buddies house in the slocan Valley last week and ended up with a qp made up of 4 flavors. I bagged 4 1/4s for a Christmas present for daughter #2s bf and still have about a years supply. I'm less keen on smoking it than I used to be so thought edibles. I have no experience making gummies so I'm going to try cooking some buds, infusing a little coconut oil then mixing it with melty wine gums and pouring it on parchment to make worms.

    I watched some videos and they're all using a pile of ingredients and it looks like pita, hence the wine gum cheat. I'm figuring I use about as much weed as ends up in a personal size doobie per wine gum melted.

    Has anyone here tried something similar? Did it work? Am I wasting my time and weed?

    Making weed gummies

    Do NOT put the amount of weed you’d smoke in a joint into one gummy. You will fuck people up.

    A gram of 20% thc weed will have 200mg of thc in it. If 75% transfers that’s 150mg. If your personal doobie is .3 g that’s still potentially a 50mg dose.


    Grind weed, de carb it by putting it in 194 degrees F water bath for 2 hours, put it in oil, heat to 185 F for 2 hours, strain.

    It’s not easy. I used cheese cloth to strain. Duff weed works but you get a crappy high. Use good weed. I made caramels fwiw

    Good to know about the dose. Thanks.

    I've made butta once, cooked weed in the oven for a bit then mixed it with butter on the stove for a bit, strained it and made cookies. Was thinking similar technique using coconut oil. A friend said imma need some emulsifier I'm going to see if I can find something locally tomorrow. Any work better/worse?

    Weed is not super high test but it's bud and works pretty good when smoked.

    I got a gummy bear maker for Christmas last year and couldn't get the consistency of the gummies right in order to risk wasting weed on them (didn't use enough gelatin I think). I'm in a legal state so I got some cannabis oil extract to use and don't have to mess around with extracting it myself, and can get an accurate gage on the strength of each gummy.

    Thanks for the reminder to try this again.

    Most gummies at dispos in VT are 5mg and 10 will run $25-30. Sometimes they are on sale for 30% off.

    Like the OP, a friend gave me a QP of home grown and I wanted to figure out a way to “preserve” it so gummies made the most sense. They cost pennies each when made this way.

    Making weed gummies

    I’ve been making my own gummies for a few years now and feel like I have it pretty dialed in. It’s not really a long term solution though, after 2-3 months they will start to get moldy, even when I use a mold inhibitor. This is the best recipe I’ve found, best consistency and texture https://cannigma.com/recipes/how-to-...nabis-gummies/

    I ordered some gummy molds off amazon for about $10, and some soy lecithin, flavoring, and mold inhibitor. Other than that it’s just jello and unflavored gelatin. It seems like a lot, but it’s really easy.

    I found unrefined coconut oil to work better than refined. De carb at 225 for 45-55 minutes. And simmer with the oil for 3 hours.

    Through trial and error, I use about 15-20grams of flower for this recipe and it makes about 100-120 gummies which come out at 5-8mg a piece.

    I also give them out ( and flower ) like I’m some old lady who just made a batch of homemade jam…

    Try putting them in the freezer for long term storage.
