THC is the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana that alters your mood and induces a feeling of euphoria. It can also have therapeutic benefits for those who need relief from pain, anxiety, or insomnia. Delta 8 THC cartridges are an easy way to use THC without having to roll a joint or vape it. All you need is some weed, a cannabis oil cartridge, and some e-liquid. The process is surprisingly simple. If you want to make your own delta 8 THC cartridge, here’s how.
Choose What Ingredients You Need
First, you need to determine the amount of weed you want to use. For this recipe, we’re using about a gram. You also need to figure out how much THC you want in your cartridge. This can be anywhere from 50mg to 100mg depending on what type of high you want (or if it will be used for medical purposes). If you want a stronger high, go with the higher dose. We used an 80mg https://mysticlabsd8.com/delta-8-carts/ cartridge and one gram of cannabis for this recipe.
Prepare the Cannabis
First, grind up the cannabis to a fine consistency and make sure it’s not too wet. Doing this will make it easier on your e-cigarette device.
Fill Your Cartridge
Start by filling your cartridge with some e-liquid or any cannabis oil. Your cartridge will usually come with a small syringe, so you can use that to measure out the correct amount. Fill it up until the lines on the side of your cartridge are full.
Vape Your THC
- First, you’ll need to decarboxylate your cannabis. This process removes the chlorophyll from the plant matter and activates the THC by heating it up for 30 minutes at 240 degrees Fahrenheit (115 degrees Celsius). You can toast it in the oven or put it in a slow cooker on low heat overnight.
- Next, fill the cannabis oil cartridge with your decarboxylated cannabis flower or trim and screw on the top piece. Next, remove about 10 milliliters of liquid from an unflavored e-liquid bottle and pour it into the syringe injector tip that came with your cannabis oil cartridge. Put the tip on your mouthpiece and then attach it to your cartridge with a rubber o-ring on one end of the injector’s tip. Fill up your syringe until you’ve reached 100 milliliters total with liquid e-juice and gently pull back on the plunger until you reach 0 milliliters of liquid left in your syringe (to avoid spilling). Remove the needle from both parts of the device, insert it into the bottle cap, and screw the cap on tight.
- After filling your cartridge with decarboxylated cannabis flower or trim, take your first dose and then store it in an airtight container that you can keep in a cool, dark place. Each dose is roughly an eighth of an ounce (2-3 grams) of flower or trim. You may want to use a smaller amount for the first time and then increase the dose as you become more experienced with vaping cannabis oil.
- After each use, clean the device thoroughly with rubbing alcohol (or any other alcohol-free solvent). Remove all parts from your device except for the rubber o-ring at one end of the injector tip. Clean all parts with rubbing alcohol, then wash them in warm soapy water and let them dry completely before reassembling your vape pen device.
- Reattach all parts to your vape pen device, then screw on the rubber o-ring that seals the end of the injector tip.
- Store your vape pen device in a cool, dark place and use it as needed.
