        Putting it in the oven helps decarb it.

        We used to make what we called firecrackers.

        Crackers, cover them in peanut butter, grind weed over it, put another peanut butter covered cracker on top and bake them.

        They did they job just fine and we didn’t have to much with making butter.

        You’d end up eating weed, but we were kids so whatever.

        I believe in the “olden days” people used plant trimming to make butter after harvest and not flower.

        No measuring, no decarbing just a lot Of trimmings. With what we know now it was probably very inefficient but just so much it did the trick.

          That’s fair, those leafs have the most exposure to light and would be pretty naturally decarbed as well, but as you said, trim and shake take ALOT since the THC in sugar leafs is like 1%.

          Iirc, an oz of trim is like a g or 2 max of good flower.

        No not randomly, but cannabis today is different and way stronger than it used to be. Because new strains are continuously selected.

          So if it’s stronger, you would actually get higher without decarbing it.

          Not decarbing weak weed, will give you no affect.

          Longish answer, some THC naturally decarb from light and other factors, so stronger weed, has more naturally decarbed THC and CBN in it.

            So now you acknowledge that yes it has actually mutated, and no it is not random.
            Thanks.
