How to Decarboxylate Cannabis Flower

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 240° F.

Step 2

Using a digital scale, weigh the cannabis flower to your desired weight. For example: 0.25, 0.5, or 1.0 ounces.

Step 3

Gently break up the cannabis flower buds, removing any seeds and stems as necessary.

Step 4

Add the flower to a mason jar or oven-safe baking dish with a lid, making sure the flower is in an even layer (you do not want clumps or mounds). If you don’t have a lid, the tin foil will work.

Step 5

Place the container in the oven and bake for 40 minutes for THC-dominant flower or 90 minutes for CBD-dominant flower. You are looking for a light golden brown color and fragrant aroma when it is done.

Step 6

Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely with the lid on.

Step 7

Your decarbed flower is now ready for immediate use. Be sure to store in an airtight container in a cool, dark place.
