So, that butter I made was indeed stronger than usual. The only difference this time was decarbing the popcorn bud prior to making the butter. I scooped out as much brownie batter as I could into the pans, then proceeded to lick the bowl clean (I live by myself.) I figure there was a little over one brownie's worth of batter in that bowl. An hour later I knew I was in trouble, the storm was coming. Fuck. I got into bed and proceeded to FREAK THE FUCK OUT!!! I drank a half gallon of water in the first hour or so, my eyes were scary dry, as was my mouth. It was as if my head forgot how to hydrate itself. I just couldn't drink enough. My mind was racing so fast, I couldn't hold on to a train of thought for more than a few seconds. The visuals in my mind became more and more vivid and then turned really dark, which just freaked me out more. I tossed and turned for about an 8 hour ride to hell and back. I'm still not good at dosing edibles - it's either too little to be worth it, or way over the top. My clients have better luck with my browines - they generally take my advice and just eat a third to a half, and reportedly love the effects. I'm going to try to take my own advice. Yikes...

Benadryl will help, especially if you can add in some propanolol (LOL). I dislike titrating new edible batches as each new batch is an adventure.

I'd like your recipe. I've tried butter twice but both times it was very lackluster. I'd slather it on a bagel and barely get anything out of it.

No clue what I'm doing wrong.

Fuck yeah that’s the shit. My wife makes Cana coconut oil capsules good way to know your dosage but I like to spin the wheel of fucked up, average or sucking your thumb because it so intense.

Shit, I should have pm'd you in the first place. I'll pick up some Benadryl, where can I get the propanolol? Thanks, Annie...
Unfortunately propanolol (Inderal), is prescription. We used it off label when we had to calm our nerves. It worked better than any benzodiazepine 5-10 mg was perfect for about 4 hours of relief from that panicked feeling. However if you don't take much Benadryl, 50 mg should also be very effective.

for those having that kinda of weather, keep hydrated, in shade, keep a fan outside near a chair, i use something i call a chill rag, basically it's a small towel dowsed in cool water, then i wipe myself down, head first, back of neck second, chest next and then arms, then sit infront of that fan to cool off......if you have to go out. If you don't then sit back with your best movies and watch it, do things indoors, at least till dusk. Gotta be careful of heat exhaustion and heat stroke......

just a couple things i do when it hits those kinda of temps.....and i hit those a lot where i'm at....


edit: if you have plants outside only water at night, this way water doesn't evaporate....

My variant on that is to use a mister bottle on a T-shirt. I call it my redneck A/C. A soaked shirt cools too fast here in CA. Back East a soaked shirt cooled more slowly and lasted longer ... humidity difference

They make specialized rags for that now, lol. Synthetic fiber, doesn't feel wet yet absorbs and highly evaporative for the cooling effect. For $8.00 a towel, I stick with hand towels or dish towels ;)
