How To Make Concentrated Cannabis Oil

Hi Hiker,

Let me help clarify 'cancer treatment regimen'; Its an approximated 90 day treatment. You don't start off with a gram of oil a day. It takes time to get to a gram a day. 60 grams is an estimate depending on factors like chemo/radiation, early stage four, late stage four, weening off opiates/meds. Also you will need some add-on's. 2-3oz of high cbd strain and 1 oz of Indica/Indica (close to pure as you can get). This varies depending on pain how advanced the cancer is etc. This will provide you with the main cancer concentrate, pain/inflammation and stop the cancer spreading and nighttime sleep. It would be smart to plan 90 grams. I would do it like this; 80 grams of high THC Sativa dominant, 6 grams of high CBD (about 3 ounces) and 4 grams of Indica.

True, cannabis oil is not cheap, but, considering the alternative to chemo/radiation its a winner hands down. A good analogy; pain and suffering with side effects of chemo, nausea from pain meds or going about your day with a wellness feeling of good health why curing cancer? Also I've seen a person spend 750.000.00 in 2.5 years just in co-pay. Now to the good part. After the cancer is gone just a grain of rice will keep your wife in the best health of her life, not just for cancer (which she will never have again if doing a PM dose) while healing glands, organs, etc.

A mention also; a grain of rice should be broken down into a least 2 doses, 4 is even better as it is easier to control and much safer.

While your waiting for your biopsy report I would study the dosing tutorial with your wife. Learn as much as you can and plan plan plan so when your ready you will be well prepared.

No questions are stupid. Make sure you understand what you need to know. Thank you for your kind words.

Thank You

I did try to find that myself, but sometimes it can be difficult to find particular posts.


You also used both of the terms that are confusing me, but assuming you didn't interchange them accidentally, I think I get it now.

We talk about a 'grain' of oil as a description of the size of the little drop of oil. The goal is to take one 'grain' per dose, several times a day, and to take enough 'grains' that they would add up to weigh 1 gram. Is that right?

I had seen Motoco's other thread as well, but felt this one was more appropriate since my question relates to making the oil.


So let's do a little math... For a 3 month supply, using 1 gram a day, a patient needs ~90 grams of oil. If I can expect ~3.5-4.5 grams of oil per ounce of buds, I need ~22.5 ounces of buds every three months! Wow that's a lot. I was worried it might take that much, but was hoping it would turn out to be better than that.

Assuming 1oz/sq ft and 12 weeks (3 months) to flower, you need ~23 sq ft per patient. It also means a rough cost of $750 a month for the patient! (based on a wholesale price of $100 ounce) Cannabis is a much safer medicine than what big pharma has to offer, but it's not much cheaper. Honestly, I expect the costs of cannabis to rise a bit with the new retail market (I'm in WA). It already seems to be happening a little bit. This is only going to make it harder for the patient in need.

My wife recently had a tumor found on her liver. She actually has a couple tumors. She has always gotten cysts and had a couple surgically removed over the years, but based on the MRI, these are solid. We haven't had any of them biopsied yet, but I'm assuming the worst and would like to get her on RSO. I figure even if it's not cancer, the RSO can be a preventative measure.

Thanks again for sharing your knowledge Motoco. I hope your health improves quickly and you are able to ease your wife's burden soon.
