Bag of scrap

My first post in this section of the forums but am diving into uncharted waters now that I have my growing and drying / curing techniques down. If I ask some dumb questions, my apologies beforehand.

I am just finishing up my third grow and the first I would consider truly successful. Now, with what looks to be enough bud to smoke with some extra I would like to try my hand at butter, coconut oil and honey. I also have a bag of stems, stalks, trim, sugar leaves, popcorn bud and large and small fan leaves. Its safe to say the contents are at least 50% fans.

From my little bit of reading it looks like the norm is 1 oz. bud to a pound of butter. Given the amount of fan leaves and scrap that Ive collected and knowing that the thc content will be substantially less than say sugar leaves or bud alone, how much should I add to a pound of butter?

I realize its relative to dosage but I guess I am looking for an approximate weight (for dried trim and wet trim) to hopefully feel a decent buzz.

Also, should I decarb the dried mix in the oven prior to mixing with the butter or oil?

Sorry, I usually do my own legwork but am starting to feel under the weather and am trying to plan the harvest for Saturday and just not feeling it due to zero energy.
 
No need to excuse for questions :)
It is a bit difficult to advice for how much weed to x amount of butter. You say decent buzz... But we don't know your weed dosage per day...
Can you restrain yourself from eating more than half a cookie for the example?
A safe, yet strong, suggestion is
50gr of all of the above you said to 500gr of butter.
We talk about SMALL portions to be taken of finished product.
Edibles take upto 1,5 hr to hit you and also depending on what you ate before and after matters.
Wait the full time and don't take any more before that.
 
Thanks for the response.

Very true about self control with edibles. I have had them from a friend and know a little bit goes a long way and it’s different from smoking in time and effect.

I’ve just been saving every bit of this amazing plant and would like as little as possible to go to waste.

The oil or butter would be for my wife and myself, baked into a little treat. We’re not looking to get baked but rather a cookie or two with coffee on a lazy Sunday morning or pasta with garlic infused cannabis oil.

I’ll try the 50 gr to 500 gr. I’ll gauge it and adjust.
