    I am trying to make cannabutter for the first time and I accidently got a strain (purple dragon) I've never heard of before and I just wanted to make sure it's good for making butter.

    Hon, it's fine! You can make canna-butter from any strain. :biggrin:

    And names mean very little. Growers often slap a fancy name on their "no name" cannabis to help it sell. The "Blue Dream" that you buy at one dispensary (or dealer), may have nothing in common in its genetics, taste or high, with the "Blue Dream' from the dispensary (or dealer) just down the road!

    You might consider using coconut oil instead of butter.........it lasts longer.

    Extra virgin olive works good too. I was surprised how great it came out, cause I've been using coconut oil for at least 10 years.

    You're welcome! And can I turn you on to a good resource? New January 2021 Granny's List

    It has just about anything you want to know about cannabis- a lot of cannabis-related medical studies, and stuff on cannabis cultivation, recipes, history, and there is a section with just news articles that are a good way to start your cannabis education.

    My wife takes a 1 mL pill for sleep at night.
    I take two.
    I believe it's completely immaterial to my stomach what exact oil it gets 2 mL of along with the herb.
    All oils work well, and peanut butter does too, because it's half oil.

    But some oils might go bad faster.

    Any Cooking grade oil from Avocado to Safflower oil all works equally well.
    What Coconut and MCT oil does is hit in half the time.
    Coconut oil gets a free pass through the stomach and speeds to your Liver and gets to skip the 45 minutes with Bile in your stomach to break it down enough to move to the Liver for further processing.

    Coconut oil = 45 minutes.
    Everything else = 2 full hours.

    Lecithin @ 1/6th oil volume acts to enhance the Bioavailability so you get more bang per mg used.
