Butter-to-smoke comparison

[Rhythmdvl]

When eating, how close is the amount of butter-bud to the amount of smoked bud?

Let’s start with a few values I’m familiar with:
If we (two of us, myself and Mrs. Dvl) were doing bong hits all night, we’d use x amount of pot; smoking bowls, y amount; and if joints, z. Clearly the amounts vary with the potency and method, but the proportions stay the same.

Furthermore, I have different recipes that call for differing amounts of butter (1 stick, 2 stick, red stick, blue stick).

By dividing the amount of pot that went into the butter by the amount of cookies a recipe makes, I can figure out the average pot-per-cookie ratio, and compare that to the amount of pot-per-bong that gets us high (man, I sometimes teach SAT math — if only I could use this as an example!)

I know direct comparison is difficult, especially as eating highs last much longer than a smoking ones, and there are lots of variables to control for (e.g., extraction, tolerance). But if we know ourselves and our smoking habits and the pot we’re using, do we put in enough pot to equal 1–2, 2–3, or 5–6 bong hits per cookie, or as much as we’d both smoke that night anyway, or ... or ... or what?

Thanks,

Rhythm

Lol! I've never seen it put that way. Interesting though. I like math, too. Generally, I don't think of how many hits per cookie, because as you said there's way too many variables. I can however estimate potency by knowing the product I'm using.

Id like to help you out but I slept in math class. Not so good at cooking either. LOL.+ rep points for the math lesson.
