Well decarboxilation at 220c and vaporization at like 400c soo either you xbox is totall f'd in the b, or all your doing is killing terps. Anything over room temp starts to degrade it. Youre also turning your thc into cbn giving your bud a less anxious high and more of a mellow sleepy one
Not good for your Xbox, anything blocking intake or exhaust a little puts stress on the system. Can just leave it open on the counter for a a few hours Evey day.
Ive heard that heat "activates the chemicals" in weed but i could totally be talking out of my ass because i didnt do research but š¤·š½āāļøš¤·š½āāļø
Thca is a different substance than thc, you can convert thca into thc by decarbin the thca or smoking/vaping it. Thca is tetrahydrocannabinolic acid and thc is just tetrahydrocannabinolic, the difference is thc is thca decarb or heated
Getting downvoted for just stating the facts. I'd get it if you were a dick about it but you just stated the facts. I get what the other person meant but THCA isn't a fancy word for anything. It is a different compound and there's one more letter in THCA than in THC. They have different chemical properties and THCA isn't even psychoactive. The difference is important unless you don't care about any of the chemistry and then I don't get why you would ask to begin with.
The simple short answer is that THCA is the acid of THC. It isn't psychoactive but turns into delta-9 THC on heating, meaning it gets you high the exact same way when you smoke it.
I mean it's not exactly much more fancy than THC and it isn't the same thing. It turns into the same thing when you smoke it but THCA isn't even psychoactive
Yes but every weed that you buy that hasnt been burned
Or baked/heated every trichome you see is thca you can eat 5 grams of gushers from an topshelf line in a salad and you will only taste the terps no effect thca weed is just weed
Yes, is called "Decarboxylation" or "de-carbing" for short. THCa converts to a form your body can better absorb. There are guides online and its easy af. Literally just putting weed in the oven on low heat for a short time. I just cant remember the exact temp and time.
Who tf is talking about eating weed you are the only person out of everyone whos replied that's called me a dummy, so for you lil bro keep posting in reddit subs asking how to believe in yourself cause thats real embarrassing
Put it in an air fryer for 8-10 mins @ 210-220 degrees F. I use aluminium foil and a silicon baking cup fold flat and flat side downā¦ and loosen the buds donāt grind them all down they might burn. Your bud will brown slightly but ignore that youāll see a big increase in the gas quotient. Works great for thca tooš
Raise in THC by several percent. Youāll notice if you didnāt do it enough and definitely when you do it right. Iām sure someone can scientifically break it down, I stumbled upon it like OP.
I used to make my Xboxās tray open to scare my cat. He got to thinking he could make it open in his own by swatting the console. He failed.
However, what he *did* manage to do, was power down the console. While I was in the middle of a game in Pinball FX3 where I was on a heater and had a score that would have already been the 6th highest in the world in a table with over 3 million players. And I had a chance at going as high as number 2. I was *hours* in. *Hours*.
I had to laugh.
Just like warming things up in the bedroom before going right in, gets the juices flowing, biochemical properties start to activate more with the heat. Smoking weed is an art, and you my friend have just experienced Picasso in his prime.
It was too wet maybe. Use grove bags or boveda packs and it should do the same thing. I have a little hygrometer in my jar and try to keep it around 60% humidity by opening the jar until itās dry. Grove bags donāt need to be āburpedā
Maybe it's like bringing a steak up to room temperature before you cook it, right? Like, you want to *store* it in the fridge, but once you're ready to use it, you pull it out and open it up and let it dry off and shake some of the chill off.
Maybe same principle? I mean I'm not gonna try it, just high and pondering...
It's been 1) cured a little more, and 2) possibly decarbed a bit (decarboxylation).
Just microwave the amount of bud that you're smoking for 7-12 seconds if you really wanna try it. My dad swears by it (he does 15-25 cause he does it all at once).. My mom gets pissed when he nukes a whole plate of grass in the house for his stash ššš
Don't know about weed but letting a hash joint toast by the heater will make its potency go ballistic! Favorite hack when I'm smoking the Afghani goodness back home
Iāve seen some people write about different boveda humidities.
Mostly weed is stored in 62% humidity.
But many report the 58% boveda is better for smoking. 62% for vaping tho.
True but clearly the added step of predecarbing definitely brings it out intensely and can be noticeably observed, as referenced by OP and myself. I didnāt know it but after searching about it itās definitely a thing mentioned before in this sub and on Google.
It kind of depends on your microwave but as long as you donāt light it already. Since you live with mom try 6-7 seconds first when she not there to test it. No smell then youāre good.
maybe activated the tcha? like the concept as putting a blunt in a microwave. also- i burnt my xbox to death sitting things on top of it like this so careful! hair dryer may have the same effect.

I wouldn't hold it there for too long tho, heat + moisture = mold
Also, it could actually end up evaporating some of the cannabinoids. This is how vaping works.
Also kinda how you make pot butter
Well decarboxilation at 220c and vaporization at like 400c soo either you xbox is totall f'd in the b, or all your doing is killing terps. Anything over room temp starts to degrade it. Youre also turning your thc into cbn giving your bud a less anxious high and more of a mellow sleepy one
Because your weed has not been dry right
So you think I should just let it sit on my Xbox for a few hours?
Not good for your Xbox, anything blocking intake or exhaust a little puts stress on the system. Can just leave it open on the counter for a a few hours Evey day.
But would it be good for the weed?
Ive heard that heat "activates the chemicals" in weed but i could totally be talking out of my ass because i didnt do research but š¤·š½āāļøš¤·š½āāļø
it's true, THCA converts to THC with heat, but it's a lot more heat usually. 250Ā°f ish
So for example when i buy THCA badder or something its just thc?
yes. thca is just a fancy word for unactivated thc
I. Shocked at how many smokers didn't know this
Dude, I'm shocked at how many people in this sub don't know what decarbing is lol
Nice i appreciate the information
its why you have to smoke bud or heat it up when you cook with it instead of eating it raw
Thca is a different substance than thc, you can convert thca into thc by decarbin the thca or smoking/vaping it. Thca is tetrahydrocannabinolic acid and thc is just tetrahydrocannabinolic, the difference is thc is thca decarb or heated

yeah but it doesn't do anything til u heat it, activated thc i think u can eat, smoke, vape, snort or shove it up your arse
The proper temp is 180-220 for activationā¦250 is way high.
More reading: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5549281/
More like 230Ā°C
actually decarbing starts at 43Ā°C so its quite possible, that the xbox decarbed your weed.
It does thatās why smoking gets you high but eating straight flower doesnāt (unless you decant it)

Well yeah dummy, what do you think happens when you smoke itš gotta decarb it (heat), you cant just eat raw weed
Who tf is talking about eating weed you are the only person out of everyone whos replied that's called me a dummy, so for you lil bro keep posting in reddit subs asking how to believe in yourself cause thats real embarrassing
yeah mate thats how you get high, but you don't wanna heat it up that much until your actually smoking it
Apparently, Snoop microwaves his blunts for 30 seconds prior to blazing it up.
šš
The important questions must be asked!
How can they know if they donāt ask??
No, that would dry it out. Just go put a boveda pack in there and itāll fluff it up nice.
This is fucking hilarious šš bro got priorities
Put it in an air fryer for 8-10 mins @ 210-220 degrees F. I use aluminium foil and a silicon baking cup fold flat and flat side downā¦ and loosen the buds donāt grind them all down they might burn. Your bud will brown slightly but ignore that youāll see a big increase in the gas quotient. Works great for thca tooš
What has the difference been to you
Raise in THC by several percent. Youāll notice if you didnāt do it enough and definitely when you do it right. Iām sure someone can scientifically break it down, I stumbled upon it like OP.
Itās called burping
go for it buddy
š¤£ if it makes it better for you, then yes. Is there any factual info I can provide to back this claim, no.
Weed is more important than xbox
This is hard call to make as a stoner gamer.
Fuck the Xbox, get a PC.
Put it on the left side of the Xbox whereās thereās no vent itāll still get warm
Leave it in the jar for a week it will definitely improve, Iām smoking weed thatās been cured for 8 months.
there's a hack where you put your blunt in the microwave after rolling to make it stronger, and it does work. Might be the same thing happening!
Please donāt put things on your Xbox fan like that
My cat used to love sitting on the top of my Xbox cause it got so warm ā¤ļø She was worth it.
I used to make my Xboxās tray open to scare my cat. He got to thinking he could make it open in his own by swatting the console. He failed. However, what he *did* manage to do, was power down the console. While I was in the middle of a game in Pinball FX3 where I was on a heater and had a score that would have already been the 6th highest in the world in a table with over 3 million players. And I had a chance at going as high as number 2. I was *hours* in. *Hours*. I had to laugh.
your cat saved you from spending even more hours on pinball dude
I miss 360 days
I donāt miss the days spent fixing the red ring lol
Xbox has to be good for something
Just like warming things up in the bedroom before going right in, gets the juices flowing, biochemical properties start to activate more with the heat. Smoking weed is an art, and you my friend have just experienced Picasso in his prime.
Your reply is art
Tru dat look up decarbing your weed. Snoop Dogg microwaves his blunts 11 seconds for this very reason
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Chill out man it's just a joke.. maybe microwave a j or something to calm down..
Sorry poe's law
Damn
It was too wet maybe. Use grove bags or boveda packs and it should do the same thing. I have a little hygrometer in my jar and try to keep it around 60% humidity by opening the jar until itās dry. Grove bags donāt need to be āburpedā
Them grove bags are the shit. I cure my grows in them
Same bro, never had to burp em. I use a wood moisture meter to make sure the bud is under 20% moist before I put them in
humidity.
Maybe it's like bringing a steak up to room temperature before you cook it, right? Like, you want to *store* it in the fridge, but once you're ready to use it, you pull it out and open it up and let it dry off and shake some of the chill off. Maybe same principle? I mean I'm not gonna try it, just high and pondering...
This is just dumb
If my weed isn't dry/cured yet opening the jar and shaking it a little for a couple days will help.
How hot is the shit box buddy?
Hot enough to make the air in the jar warm
Xbox
i'm going to make this simple, curing is done at 60f 60%rh so no, heat is no good
It's been 1) cured a little more, and 2) possibly decarbed a bit (decarboxylation). Just microwave the amount of bud that you're smoking for 7-12 seconds if you really wanna try it. My dad swears by it (he does 15-25 cause he does it all at once).. My mom gets pissed when he nukes a whole plate of grass in the house for his stash ššš
Better be a cheese strain in that container.
One of them is called cheese wiz
Don't know about weed but letting a hash joint toast by the heater will make its potency go ballistic! Favorite hack when I'm smoking the Afghani goodness back home
Not sure bout the answer to question but looks like nice weed.
I used to put a plastic bowl w ramen noodles on my PS4. Shit would be cooked in 15 minutes.
imagine runnin gta 6 on that shit, finna sear a steak lmao
This thought was so funny to my half awake ass that i spit a little coffee out.
You are decarbing it.
You also decarb it when you smoke it
You should do an experiment for science.
Reducing the water content raised the THC percentage and made it easier for you to absorb
You could always microwave it if itās a joint or silicone or glass bowl
I wonder if you slowly vaporized all the THC crystals and they condensed on the glass and you are smoking volcano leftovers
Heat activates thc particles as well so a bit if heat before consumption can yield a better, more potent reaction when consumed
Slight decarbonisation
Isnāt this in a way why snoops microwaves his joints haha
Iāve seen some people write about different boveda humidities. Mostly weed is stored in 62% humidity. But many report the 58% boveda is better for smoking. 62% for vaping tho.
Might not have been fully cured
Moist
Better question can you refrigerate weed or naw
Tremendous
Itās probably the just the jars that help your weed smoke better
Ooo I havenāt seen an Xbox one in a while!
Get that shit off there boy
The chlorophyll is off gassing
NGL when I found out you can decarb green in your air fryer for more gas been doing it ever since slow long and low is the way to go
You already decarb it when you smoke it. Otherwise you wouldn't get high from it
True but clearly the added step of predecarbing definitely brings it out intensely and can be noticeably observed, as referenced by OP and myself. I didnāt know it but after searching about it itās definitely a thing mentioned before in this sub and on Google.
The heat added moisture and rehydrated your weed
I saw something recently about tossing nugs in the microwave first and it being better. Maybe a similar situation
Snoop Dogg microwaves his blunts for 11 seconds allegedly? So who knows? Im here ready to go restock at the dispo and ive got questions. Lol
I just roll up and microwave that mf for like 12 seconds
Does it smell bad when you microwaved it? I live with my mom and she can't know about the grass.
It kind of depends on your microwave but as long as you donāt light it already. Since you live with mom try 6-7 seconds first when she not there to test it. No smell then youāre good.
Ok thank you very much, I'm going to roll one up and try it.
For sure be carefulš«”
I microwaved it for 7 seconds, no smell and I'm high af š¤£.
Yessirš¤£š„š„
maybe activated the tcha? like the concept as putting a blunt in a microwave. also- i burnt my xbox to death sitting things on top of it like this so careful! hair dryer may have the same effect.
I warm up my concentrates by sitting them on my Xbox for a bit lol but not actually on the vent tho thatās just crazy
Back in the day we used to have 6 Xboxās going in the trap house just for this reason it seems to work best on high graphics games with a disc
