I'm curious - will cannabis oil emulsify properly with either vegetable glycerin or propylene glycol? I just started growing, and should (hopefully) have enough bud to try and affordably make my own "enhanced" e-liquid for vaping.

That’s a very interesting question. I think it would however it will reduce the potency even more and honestly, should we smoke coconut oil or olive oil? I’m not sure that’s a good idea.
You could make a hash oil though like RSO and add your VG/PG blend. I’d recommend adding wax liquidizer though for some flavor.

I won't need any coconut oil or olive oil. I've actually been making my own vape juice for a few years now. I was curious about making a cannabis infused version with the pure cannabis oil.
Sorry CrazyChef, I’m afraid I continue to misunderstand the question.
Perhaps I should take a backseat and let more qualified individuals help. Cheers
Hi CrazyChef,
I'm not an expert at infusions, but I have made my own cannabis vape juice several times. What works for me, I make a strong cannabis tincture with most of the alcohol evaporated, and then blend a few drops into the VG/PG. A certain popular video place is flush with folks fleshing out their own recipes and processes.

Sounds good - thank you!
Isn’t that RSO?
I’m confused but I’m glad you got your answer. Perhaps the wording of the second one made more sense?
Leaving it as a strong tincture will allow the oil to stay suspended in the alcohol. Alcohol will emulsify easily with PG/VG. Once mixed, all I need to do is allow the remainder of the alcohol evaporate. Hopefully, this will allow the oil to stay suspended in the PG/VG.
Not sure if you were askng me, but it helped any way lol
Actually it was directed at CrazyChef but I'm glad it was helpful

Awesome - THANKS!
Highya SweetSue, Guys,
Julie found this article on F'book. I haven't read it yet, but the headline is explosive:
I'm going to read it now. Thought you (collectively) might want to rail on big pharma researching (playing God) coming up with a better(?) product, probably cleared by CDC, AMA, etc. and yet this!
I'll post again after I read it. Cheers

K2 has been around for years. And these aren't the first ones to have problems. It can also cause seizures, asthmatic type attacks, etc.

RSO (Rick Simpson Oil) is the same thing as Concentrated Cannabis Oil (CCO). Here we just call it what it is.
The washes are done with alcohol, and if you evaporate off all the alcohol you’re left with CCO Archi.
I get concerned with the vape juices, because I’m not confident at all that the carrier liquid is meant to be vaporized and absorbed through the lung tissue without some problem arising years down the road.
I’m also not going to be the fearmongerer yelling “NO!”
Keep us informed in your progress please Chef. 
I have a hard time believing this crap is still out there and that idiot children are still risking it. Every few years we have a batch surface that spreads pain and frustration through an isolated community.
Prohibition.... you gotta love the results.

I have played with CCO but only a little. I made a tincture from everclear but it seemed too weak so I purged more of the everclear until it was almost goop. Then I put a couple splashes of everclear just to make it fluid again lol. Couple drops under the tongue and I was feeling pretty decent in about 10-15 minutes

One of the nice things about a tincture is fast onset.
I agree, though the duration is noticeably less than my recent oil batch. It’s a fair trade most times.One of the nice things about a tincture is fast onset.
By the way, speaking of my recent batch, I have hit an infusion that almost seems to have peaks and valleys and lasts a very considerable time. Like a great six hours or so. Mind is blown haha. It was 14g (pre-carb weight) and I would say 1/2 cup of oil maybe 2/3 cup. I did two runs and filtered them both in the same jar then filled capsules. I dare not take more than five or Ill wake up still stoned like it’s my first time.

At 6:30 he recounts the visit to his doctor after using CCO and having his melanoma disappear, after the doctor (in his late 50s to early 60s) had already referred him to a specialist to remove said tumor mass.
The doctor was furious.
This is why we have such little faith in our medical teams. When asked how the doctor could explain the death of that mass without CCO his response was, “I’m a doctor. I don’t have to explain it!”
Yeah..... a lotta confidence being built with that god complex.
Thankfully, those older doctors will eventually retire and go off to play golf full-time.
