Does microwaving a bud decarboxylate it?

There's been times when I needed a buzz and dried a bud out for 2 or 3 days then microwaved it. It seemed like microwaving made it more potent as well as dry.

No.

Must be because it was dryer. Now I wonder other than evaporate terpenes what does it do chemically to cook a bud in the microwave.

Chemically? It probably fucks it up. That's just a guess though as I've never been pressed to microwave a bud

Ever try Banana Peels?
No, Microwaves are unable to heat evenly and some of the bud will be left out in the cold.

Wrap the bud in a paper towel and 10 sec at a time till dry enough. It will decarb when you smoke it.

You have no control in the microwave probably some trichs go over 130c...

Get a vape you can smoke wet weed with it after first 5 puffs weed is dry and you start really smoking it

Schwag or not I will smoke it...
-Old saying from the 1980's.
In those days when it went dry people smoked resin. And banana peels.
