ok so i did the hot extraction method and simmered it in a hot water bath for 20 min after i baked the weed for 5 minutes in the oven. I still have it in the same jar i simmered it in and im wondering if i should leave it in the glass jar for like two weeks or should i just go ahead an put it into the dropper bottle? I guess im asking if it will get any stronger if i let it sit in the alchol longer or is it already as strong as it will be?​

I've never made a pot tincture, but doesn't seem like you should have put it in the oven because it loses potency.

I would think you would leave it in the jar for at least 4 to 5 weeks, shaking peridocially.

Sorry I can't help more...just going on instincts here.:leaf:

yea your supposed to "activate" the weed by sticking it in the oven at lower temps than what thc evaporates at. It supposedly makes it stronger. And with the way I did through simmering it in a hot water bath it is supposed to be ready right after you did it but i want to see if it can get stronger if i let it soak as well. so i would be combining both ways of doing it.
