Guest remondo Posted December 19, 2003 Report Share Posted December 19, 2003 'Guys', I'm confused about green dragon. Why is there no heating of the grass prior to soaking? As far I know, the THC in marijuana must be heated to make it active (only small quantities of active THC exist in raw weed). So if you're not baking your weed for 20min. before soaking in alcohol, you're wasting a lot of it. cheersRaymond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipeman Posted December 19, 2003 Report Share Posted December 19, 2003 sorry mate thats not true. weed into alcihol needs no heating. THC will dissolve and will readily get you ripped if consumed. My copy of Ed Rosenthal's Trash to Stash doesn't seem to be around otherwise I'd give you a more scientific explanation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pipeman Posted March 12, 2004 Report Share Posted March 12, 2004 would it work with 40-50% acohol? yeah. the longer you leave it the more potent it will get. books I've read recommend leaving it for at least a month giving the bottle a good shake up every now and then.

Eggman Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 So then the question is: brown or white? Scotch? Vodka? Gin? Tequlia? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickle Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 I don't know if you can still buy it but there used to be a rum called 'Inner Circle Rum' that was 150 proof (75 percent). It think it was made by CSR or Bundaberg in Australia. So you can add rum to the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F420 Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 ------- Marijuana must be heated before being consumed to activate the cannabinoids so one cannot simply eat raw grass. One may extract the active ingredients from marijuana using alcohol and then use this tincture to make a potent drink. The highest proof alcohol available should be used, preferably 190 proof grain alcohol, since the water in the alcohol will dissolve other chemicals in the marijuana that one wishes to avoid. Some suggest soaking the grass in warm water for a period to remove those chemicals but that presents a whole host of other problems, and is not really recommended. One may simply place the marijuana into a bottle of grain alcohol and let the cannabinoids leach out, but this takes 2-3 weeks of time. A faster method is to heat the alcohol to sub-boiling and stir in the marijuana. Great deal of care should be taken if this method is chosen as the alcohol is highly flammable . The resulting tincture, often called "Green Dragon", is a light to emerald green liquid, which can be drunk straight, but this is not recommended. Highly lauded is a drink of 3 parts lemon lime soda, 1 part green dragon and a dollop of honey served over ice. http://www.a1b2c3.com/drugs/mj013.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
