I know I can't be the only person here who experiences terrible headaches if I consume ABV. I've shared caps I made where others got a giant couch lock buzz and i end up with a slight high followed by a huge migraine where I'm hiding from light and throwing up. Not fun or useful in any way, shape or form.
Anyone else have this reaction to eating their ABV?

Yeah one gram, it takes like 3 hours to hit but man, stuck to couch for 12 hours.

Read the top post...simple but spot-on
I'm not real scientific about it, about a teaspoon will send me on my way. I start on an empty stomach and don't bother with fancy extraction techniques because I find the taste to be pleasant. I just top my favorite food off with that shit and away I go.Sunny side up ABV'd eggs w. toast is among my favorites and a nutritional way to start your day. As an ice cream topping is another favorite among the lotus eaters.
It takes about a half hour for me to start sensing it's effects. Probably most people go too far too fast underestimating it's effects, so start out light and work your way up. You can always vape a bowl later if you aren't feeling the love.
I don't take my herb to near combustion either, maybe lightly roasted coffee in appearance. So maybe that's why I feel it soo profoundly. And I'm a big a big guy with a hearty tolerance for the chronic too, been assaulting my brain cells and liver for years, they're tough organs.
And slipping edibles to unsuspecting friends is kind of an asshole thing to do too.

Wow, this is a great thread. I wonder how it got so lost/forgotten. As a fairly new vaper and former combuster, the original post alone gave me a lot of very useful and valuable information. Thank you.
Solely because of what I read in the first post, I decided to try eating (or swallowing) some ABV last night, using a fairly small spoonful. (I didn't weigh the ABV I ate, but I estimate it was probably around 0.2 g.) I didn't experience the same results as your wife (or necessarily any results), but I also didn't eat anywhere near as much as she did, specifically because of how you described her experience.
Since I don't have any capsules and I had read people mentioning just eating ABV, that's what I did. I found ABV to be essentially tasteless and easy to handle, which has also made the idea of drinking my AroMed's filter water much less scary (especially since I've already done it a couple times, and I didn't feel grossed out by it).
At this point in my short vaping career (10 or 11 days), I tend to step my way up from a lower temperature (potentially anywhere between 250-350°F) to the AroMed's highest temperature (456°F), which leaves my herbs what I'd call very dark.
I think this topic can and should be useful to most beginners.

I know the feeling too well I was in law enforcement even though I thought mj laws were BS I still had to enforce them. I let a lot of people go for small amounts and I can say I never ruined anyones life with a mj charge the ones that got charges either already had charges for other things or had other drugs with them.

2 worst experiences with MJ:
Time in college came across some "Thai" weed and ended up upside down in a dark bedroom closet.
First time I had an edible, in Colorado last year, from big name in small rectangle shaped edis. Read label said here's the rec dose based on tolerance, experience etc...first timer cut in half or third. OK I cut in quarters to be on safe side. Nada for two hours, so go to grab a bite. At dinner whammo after 3 hours consuming tiny sliver, I get hit with a tsunami cross Mac Truck hitting me same time. Lost the next 16 hours. Many of you prob have had a bad edible experience I'm sure.
Today, read this thread and inspired to put my ABV to use. 493 mg in a few or 3 capsule. Feel hey this feels nice feeling hour in, but good not bad. 3 hours in, as in right now, blammo. I thought hey pretty low dose first time but think I overshot just like last year. Falling to the sleep now.

I think testing out edibles is best to do at night then you can just go to sleep if you are able if it turns out to be too strong. I know the feeling. Just don't drive or take care of small children. Good luck just sleep it off.
I had some canna coconut oil that I used on a trip recently. It doesn't need refrigerated. I took a tablespoon when I wanted to medicate. It did take 3 hours to kick in and lasted 6 or 7 hours. I think that's when we make the mistake after an hour or two we don't feel anything so we take more. Make sure you wait at least 3 hours.
Good luck.

I just ate five capsules of finely ground ABV. I believe I vape my herbs quite efficiently, so I'm not sure if this will do anything. Hopefully I'm wrong.

8:22 am: Swallowed 5 capsules of ABV.
10:33 am: I am feeling something right now, but I did do one session with 0.06 g in my Arizer Air (on blue/360-ish) within the last half hour. Which is basically nothing to me. I expect that stem to last about another two full sessions. So let's just say I have vaped about 0.02 g at this point today.
I don't really feel high; more like a little more relaxed than normal, perhaps. No clear evidence yet that it's from the ABV.
11:47 am: I do think something is going on from the ABV, but I don't think I'm going to flip out or drown myself in the bathtub or anything.
11:56 am: Here's a pic of the ABV I'm using.
12:36 pm: I'm pretty sure something is going on (from eating the ABV). I feel noticeably more relaxed than normal, as well as a little pleasantly stupid, which I don't believe could be from the 0.06 g of cannabis I have vaped over the last couple hours. I think maybe I'll have to try 7 capsules next time.
12:41 pm: And here's a pic of the 0.06 g Air load, which is all I have vaped so far today.

That abv's very vaped, almost as brown as it gets, mine's a light brown so I get noticeable affects when I have more than 0.5g of it. If I have 1.5g I get strong visual effects with tracers on everything. Time slows down to a crawl for me. Effects start after about half an hour and last for a good 8 hours or more. I think I'm pretty unusual though.

Very helpful feedback. Based on a lot of things I have read over the last two or three months, I kind of assumed my standard ABV is probably more spent than the average person's ABV, but I had no way of knowing because I always do this stuff alone. I don't ever have the opportunity to learn things like this from stoner buddies because I don't have stoner buddies. Consequently, I have to learn from you guys. So thanks.
I'll probably make an effort to discard my ABV sooner now.

Maybe try my milkshake
Take 2 or 3 spoons Of Abv scoop of peanut butter small handful chocolate chips grind abv to powder mix all melt in micro.
Fill glass with ice cream little milk & mixture
From the look of your abv probably only cbd left help for a great nights sleep.
Enjoy start with 1 scoop work your way up. I wouldn't toss it thow it in brownies ,spaghetti whatever...

You caught me just a little too late.
I decided to make it a double shift today. I just swallowed 10 more capsules.
EDITS:
5:41 pm: I'm pretty sure it's doing something this time. And it does seem like I have felt less pain and other unpleasantness throughout today. This may be getting fun.
6:56 pm: Apparently I'm not going to have any wacky experiences with my current ABV. I do feel like it's doing something, though, because I have felt relaxed today. Usually every muscle in my body is as tight as it could be, and it drives me nuts.
Since it looks like I have already sucked almost all of the good stuff out of my herbs, I think I have made the decision to only use my AA on its lowest setting for a while. That way I'll accumulate some low-temperature ABV, and I'll be able to give this another try.

Having slept on it, I'd say I did get something out of the 15 ABV capsules I swallowed yesterday (5 in the morning, 10 in the afternoon). It was definitely nothing like the trip described in the original post, but there were some minor trippy moments and I was definitely more relaxed than usual.
Like I said yesterday, I am going to use my AA on blue (356) exclusively for a while, or at least no higher than green (392). I have about 0.3 g of low-temp ABV collected, from yesterday, and I should probably accumulate enough to try this again within a week, I suppose.
Time to go back and read the original post. I can probably see it from a much different perspective now.

@Aimless Ryan did you eat anything with fat in it? I looked I didn't see you mention it. You need the fat because that helps with how your body absorbs the medicating properties.

Glad you bring that up.
I ate two Kroger donuts yesterday morning, and I ate a Jimmy John's roast beef sub in the afternoon. I have actually had a very difficult time eating lately, and I have been very malnourished for about five months. Having lost a lot of weight, and having dealt with horrible pain in my stomach (most likely as a direct result of the malnutrition), I have eaten just about everything I can force myself to eat for at least a week now.
I don't know if the food I ate yesterday contained the same form(s) of fat you're talking about, but that's definitely fat.

Are you sure this is true? Isn't the eating fat part important when the stuff isn't decarbed, ie, raw flowers? I'm no expert though, I might be repeating rubbish. Also, as for time-frame, I think fat's processed for up to 6 hours or so so I think you'd probably have 3 hours anyway?

One of the most interesting things I found out yesterday: I can't believe I swallowed all five capsules in one gulp. The second time around, I only swallowed two capsules at a time, five times in a row. And even that was kind of difficult.

A question for anyone: In your mind, when does weed become ABV?
Does weed become ABV once you can no longer get clouds at a certain temperature?
Does weed become ABV once it starts tasting different?
Does weed become ABV once it turns a particular color?
Anything I haven't thought of?
I know my question may depend on what vape you use, but I'm just hoping to find out anything, largely so maybe I can get this eating ABV thing right. Whatever you have to say that may seem like a relevant response to my question, please go ahead and say it.
