The Main Challenge to Baking Own Edibles: Potency Control

When baking edibles, you’re going to have some trouble. The main challenge is going to be potency control. People often make them way too strong or ruin the potency by baking the products at too high of a temperature. 

On the other hand, low heat will not activate the marijuana, and you will find that you waste a bunch of products. To make sure that you’re not making these mistakes, it is best to follow a recipe. Do some research and figure out how much marijuana is needed to create the butter, which is then used in the baked good. The last thing you want is to waste a good batch of marijuana on edibles you never want to eat.

Buy Edibles You Get Bigger Variety, Potency Control, Quality Control
