good morning @darren …I used a small hand grinder, the type for marijuana…next batch I will look harder for a powered grinder…while I was hand packing the capsules I saw it would be easier the finer more powdery it could be ground…and power grinding may mix the batch better making it more homogenized, hopefully making each capsule similar in effect to the rest.
This is my little semi scientific survey…every batch I make is different from the previous whether it’s from a different strain or a different level of THC from leaves or small buds or big buds.

Thanks @kabongster good to know, yeah I gotta get myself an electric one, my first is going to be durban poison and my next will be gold leaf, but I definitely think it will get me off my prescription tablets and let the healing begin

have you weighed your pills? i also believe a fine powder would make it easier for the body to break down…i knew a guy who incapsulated mushrooms for severe migrains and he weighed his…he said there was a fine line between getting his head to quit hurting and tripping really hard…lol he pulverized his stuff in a small ceramic bowl and little pulverizer .

The best ways I did mushrooms was to dry them out then to cook them up in a cheese and mushroom flan, knocked me socks off, good though

No, I didn’t weigh the capsules and since I hand packed them, there were discrepancies between them…why I say semi scientific, there are variations between capsules.
Hmmm, @BIGE we have a mortar and pestle…I may try that myself!

The pestle and mortar is supposed to be quite good but if your doing a lot then definitely an electric one is the way to go

I tried mushrooms once…and I thought I was gonna die…there were waves of color washing over me and my body did not feel good at their most intense then the wave would fade and I felt high until the next wave and near death experience.
It was 20 years ago…dunno anything about the mushrooms they came from a brother-in-law…I don’t recall how many I ate (probably too many) but it wasn’t pleasant.

@kabongster I was thinking do you think you can use a pollen shaker with some choice bud shake and instead of pressing into hash pucks fill capsules???
Then use what is left over in shaker to make butter or something? Your thoughts sir

that sounds like a plan…I am collecting some kief (sometimes spelled keef or kif, refers to the resinous trichomes of cannabis that may accumulate in containers or be sifted from loose, dry cannabis flower with a mesh screen or sieve) and will try it out…that’s the best part of growing my own, I have enough to try this stuff out, something I never considered when I bought it.
I plan on decarboxylating the kief before encapsulating and ingesting…putting in an oven at 225* for 20 minutes, taking out and allowing to cool then back in the oven at 240* for 40 minutes, allow to cool and it’s ready!

edibles have a place, getting the dosage right is the problem…eat too much and it is a bit overwhelming all at once, until you get used to it (if you can)…smoking is a more gradual onset allowing me time to acclimate myself to it and slow or stop at the right point.
I guess I’ll need a at least three types of capsules, a social type, a movie watching type and a sleeping type.

You’ll have to experiment a little I guess to dial them in to your personal leave but once you do it seems like a nice stealthy way to get medicated
I cant walk around with a big bag of cookies all day lol
