When I make the edibles, I calculate how much oil/weed I want in the recipe. If making brownies, I use an 8x8 pan. Each brownie is 2x2. So, 16 brownies a pan. If I want the equivalent of 1/2 joint per brownie, I'll use 8 grams of weed. We figure the average joint is 1 gram, and we want a half joint per brownie then:

16 brownies at 1/2 gram a brownie = 8 grams.

All you need to know, is how much weed per brownie you want.

Now that we know how much weed, we need to know how much oil to use, right? I use what the recipe calls for. The brownie mix I use calls for 2/3 c. Oil.

I take the 2/3 c. Oil, and add the buds then decarb covered at 170° for 24-36 hrs. Some people like to strain the oil and weed. I don't. It goes right in the brownies and as long as it's broken up well, nobody will know the plant material is in there.

Does this all make sense? If nit, please ask more questions. I'll be happy to help.
