Newbie tincture question

Question: IYO, can I make it stronger or am I wasting weed.

Details: I grew for the first time last summer (Blue Dream, outdoors) and it was amazing. The seed producer claims 19% THC but who knows. I made a green dragon tincture with 30g of flower and 30g of quality trim (decarbed) in 700 ml of 95% ethanol. Steeped and shaken daily for a month (not frozen). I've seen all sorts of ratios about how much weed with how much alcohol but no consensus so i just guessed.

I understand the strength/effect is very subjective. I'm just looking for opinions on whether I could have made it stronger or if adding more weed would have been a waste.

Thanks.

Only way to know for sure is to dry the leftover flowers and eat some, if you get high there was some fire left in it

To make really potent tincture
turn plant matter into hash then hash into tincture
Potency also depends on maturity of harvest

Your potency is approx. 16mg/thc per ml. That's twenty drops. I'd start with that dosage and work my way up or down. You don't want to "green out."
It's a bit unpleasant.
