eating it raw?

Will the human body properly digest it enough to medicate you without having to smoke it?
has anyone tried it?
i've always wanted to try it but i don't want to waste any good medicine.

You can but the effect would be so subtle it's a waste of good bud. You will need heat to decarboxylate the THCA into THC which will get you high. I have eaten an ounce of reasonably good hash before and did get pretty fucked up but it was still a waste. I would personally just dry it (which also removes the carboxyl groups) and smoke as normal or use in cannabutter.

OH man this takes me back to the early 1970's when pot was $10.00/lid. A lid was our slang for an ounce. I was making dinner for a group of stoners; spaghetti. They wanted to try eating it in said spaghetti. I was young, very young, and had smoked during cooking. I am using that for the excuse.

So I made a nice salad, spaghetti with homemade sauce that cooked all day etc... home made garlic bread and finally a nice chocolate cake for desert.

I was expected to add marijuana to the sauce. So I added some. Nothing so I added some more. Finally poured an ounce or so into the sauce, with all the attendant seeds, stems etc... that came with brick weed. OH GAWD that was funny watching those guys eat the spaghetti.

There was this look of shock and surprise. But damn those were some GREAT MEN! They ate that sauce just like a cow goes through pasture. They were not going to make the girl who slaved all day over a hot stove cry. Me after finishing in the kitchen came in and joined the men at table and took a bite. I immediately spit that spaghetti out and yelled YAK that's awful what's wrong with you guys not telling me! LOL

Well the guests slept on the living room floor and partly through the next day. They were so stoned they were like pieces of furniture for awhile. I actually went around flipping them over like beached whales (worried they hadn't moved in so long). LOL GREAT memories thanks.

Yeah eating it raw or next to raw may well work because I just stirred it in at the end so it really didn't heat much. But even with today's stemless, seedless bud really you don't want to eat it raw. Trust me, I tried LOL but it will work.

Youll only end up with a stomach ache. The thc needs to be activated by heat for it to become psychoactive (just as a flame or vaporizer would activate the thc). Or else we would all be eating it straight out of the bag lol.

People do juice leaves. There is a bit of information out there. You use fan leafs, etc so its not for getting high its for medicine. There are thought to be many benefits in the plant that have nothing to do with THC. It takes a shit load of them to do this.

Curious2garden I haven't heard it called a lid in so long. A lid was 4 fingers right. Thats was about and "O Z". Damn I'm feeling nostalgic.

LOL Yeah and my favorite was the exploding seeds in joints when you didn't get them all out, ha! I stopped smoking marijuana then and didn't smoke again until last year to see if it would help my pain. The first time I saw the marijuana of today I didn't believe it was marijuana. It smells completely different and is so much more potent. Back in the day you could leisurely smoke a good size joint all on your own and were just relaxed. Today 1 hit my eyes cross and I'm out for the night.

Imagine my surpise when I found out they sold it by GRAMS! and then the price OH MY GAWD!! The cannabis of today bears little resemblance to it's predecessors.

eating it raw will get you high.. the down side is the COIR little microscopic fibers very hard to digest, hard on the stomach..... i have eaten a large fresh bud, it will put you to sleep and give you a killer stomach ache till you shit. every now and then i nibble a bud (bite a hair off or eat some green, or stems) but no more major amounts unless you want the stomache the comes with the "okay" high

Bake it first if you wanna get high. Baking it first should make it easier on the stomach as your will vaporize some of the non-active parts, such as cloraphil..

LOL so is the human body, ie the act of ingestion heats the object ingested. As for google why would I want to use a secondary source when I have primary experience? By the way if you don't believe me feed some bud to your dog. I have to keep my grow room door shut or I find the dog climbing the cannabis and eating it by the branch. After ingestion the dog hoovers everything in sight and then falls over for a long sleep. Since I do not heat my cannabis how is he getting high?

This generalizes to humans. The term is animal model the only difference is then you have to do the Scaling Theory Math for dosage to humans but the physiology is the same/similar.
