Does anyone have a good recipe for this?
I am trying to make some that we can use for insomnia.

My current (untried) process,
14g of "Garliccot Bubblegum" THC 9% and CBD 15%
combine that with 28g of "Sour Brulee" THC .56% and CBD 15%
I plan on creating an infusion of coconut oil using both of these.
I probably try about 125 ML of coconut oil and 1 TSP of sunflower lecithin and put it in size 00 capsules.

Does this sound like it will work?
any sugestions?
TIA
Mike

Have you tried converting some of your thc to cbn? I make 9:1 cbn:cbd gummies that seem to work pretty well. I double decarb the thc part.

I have talked to you before on this, yes I plan on "double decarb" for some GDP and see how that works.
Thanks

Ah, OK. I visit so many thread that sometimes I lose track.

My THC/CBD recipe from my OP didn't really work for sleep so here is another try.


420 day so I thought I’d try to make some CBN tincture.
Started with 28g of home grown Grand Daddy Purple. Coarse grind using a paint stirrer.
Decarbed at 240 for 2 hrs (hopefully that converted the THC to CBN.
Put the full OZ of decarbed flower in the “Potency Pod” of the Levo, then added 250ml of “everclear” and started the infusion 4 hrs at 160. If this works at all I’ll try a longer infusion at 130. “Magical Butter Machine” has a recipe for tincture using 1oz of bud 1 cup of alcohol, and infuse at 130 for 8 hrs.

Figgure a 15% loss in THC/CBN from the infusion process. GDP 17% to 22% THC
According to this article I should get about 35% of TCH converted to CBN.

How To Make CBN Edibles At Home - The Science Guide
The video at the 14 min mark shows how they converted TCH to CBN
They show about a 35 to 37% conversion of the THC to CBN

Using this formula:
28g x 1000 = 28000 mg 28000 mg x 17% = 4,700 mg of THC
4,700 MG of THC converted to CBN at 35% = 1,666 MG of CBN and 3,094 mg of THC
Then figure 80% infusion using Everclear, and final product would be 2,475 MG of TCH and 1,332 mg of CBN
After evaporation of alcohol adding 125ml of coconut oil and 1 tsp of sunflower lecithin.
This filled 154 .9ml 00 capsules.
If my math is correct that would give each capsule 7.78 mg of CBN and 14.46 mg of THC.

I can tell that there is not the “high” from THC and the CBN does seem to cause drowsiness.
So far this does seem to help with sleep.

My biggest concern in all of this, I have no way of testing the THC/CBN levels.
I’ll have to see if there is a lab in my area, and what it would cost to test.
