I hear you brother. I hope my buddy @VBGrower has a good turnout so he can show me how to do it. I love The buzz. I’m just not willing to go through the pain to get to the pleasure when smoking.
When I take one hit I cough for 40 minutes.

I have a couple different recipes I found to try. I want shelf-stable gummies more like the commercial type than can be stored in a container in a cabinet, not something in the fridge like Jello like most of the recipes you find online.
Next step is to make a more concentrated coconut oil to infuse them with because the recipes don’t use much. The oil I made this past weekend is great for cookies and stuff, but not it’s strong enough for gummies. It was made with a 1c infusion. I’m going to make it based in 1/4c with 2x’s the weed.
I ordered the supplies and will make it this weekend.

I thought you were making the non Jello gummies? Or do all the gummies have jello

Most of the recipes only used jello, gelatin and oil. They need to be eaten or frozen within a week or two from what I read. Basically is a jello gummy.
This recipe has preservatives and drys more like store bought. Most recipes use the jello. Some are just candy flavor and food coloring.
There’s a million recipes I’ve seen, I think this is the one that seems legit to me. If it works out I want to try a vegan recipe.

@Lostgirl how many mg per gummy seems reasonable? 15? 20? More?
I have a pack of commercial gummies that are 100mg each. That’s too much, they get cut into 5 
by someone that’s taken them. I feel like 20 is the magic number……?? Thoughts?

I’ve never taken one but know many people that have and the magic number tends to be 20 to 25 from what they say

Ok, that’s inline with my expectations. I will shoot for that with my next infusion I’m preparing for the run this weekend.

I’ve got a scenario for you. I don’t see the purpose of making hash unless you have tons of keif or clippings
The reason is if you take 1 oz of weed and sift the trichomes you get enough to make three maybe four if you’re lucky grams of hash from one ounce of weed. At $20 a gram you’re lucky if you get $80
I’m wondering how that plays into effect with gummies. Ounce of weed $300 take 6 oz of weed to make 30 gummies that you sell for $5 a piece
I’m you just using the numbers above as an example but I’m probably not far off I’m definitely correct on the hash
My questions to
1.) you got two bottles of oil there how much weed did it take to make them?
2.) How many gummies are potentially going to come out of that
3.) how much are gummies?
I want to do it for myself personally. I like the buzz but unfortunately I’m not willing to choke to death to get there. You understand

Been working through this myself.
There’s some math to this madness…
My trim and popcorn buds come from 4 different strains with the following thc levels per the cultivar (17%, 24%, 26%, 30%) with a bigger portion of the trim from the Motorbreath strain. So, the average of all 4 is 25%. I deduct potency % because who knows IF I hit those levels, and I deduct potency for the decarboxylation and infusion efficiency. So I feel fairly comfortable using an average of 20% thc in my calculation BEFORE reducing the above efficiency losses. Plus, I used lecithin in the recipe with (from what I’ve read) makes the thc more readily available to the body perhaps enhancing the thc effect.
That said - theoretically (calculated) I should have about 1660mg of thc available in 4oz infused oil. 1660mg/70 servings is 23-24mg per serving. (If I drop the thc level to 15%, it drops the mg/serving down to 12mg each - as reference). I did t have it tested and won’t. The texting will tell me if I’m close and I have testers to validate 
The batch I am going to make will make about 70 gummies using 1/2c (4oz) of infused oil. To achieve 23-24mg each, that is 11g (0.38oz) per 1/2c. - each jar has 6oz of oil, so enough for 3 batches of 70 (210).
I feel like gummies are the way to go - unless someone tells me differently.
Maybe, just maybe I’m an idiot and not even close. Good thing is I will know this weekend if that is the case

Hands down I have all the faith in you it definitely sounds worth doing. I believe with all your guesstimated numbers you’re between close and sorta kinda (and that’s not a bad place to be)
You certainly dove into it with both feet I’ll give you that. Keep me posted take pictures all that good shit

Very nice, that bottom picture that girl looks very hungry you better feed her
I would also get those bags off the ground. Put them on a small crate anything to keep them from the ass of that bag hitting the ground you need airflow under that. A recipe for Bud and root rot
Put them on something like this
Yeah, fed her hard last night. Theses are at a different location which has much more sun. She got a boost yesterday
