Full Extract Cannabis Oil (FECO) is an extraction from the flowers of the cannabis plant. This infusion is known as medical cannabis oil. Interestingly, FECO requires the use of ethanol for extraction. This differentiates FECO from standard THC oil and CBD oil extractions. This unique process maintains the complex properties of the cannabis plant.
FECO is highly concentrated and highly potent. Therefore, it is commonly referred to as medical cannabis oil. FECO is the number one choice of cannabis oil for chronic illness patients. This is due to its unique healing potential.
Cannabis contains chemical compounds called cannabinoids. These specialized compounds are believed to house healing potentials. According to this article (2018), FECO may possess anti-nauseant capabilities.
Unfortunately, muscle spasticity or tightness is common in many neurological illnesses. Interestingly, THC may aid in the relaxation of muscles. THC is the psychoactive property of cannabis. This compound is highly prevalent in FECO. Thusly, FECO may assist in the management of nausea and muscle pain.
Full Extract Cannabis Oil can be taken by syringe, added to cannabis edibles, or applied topically. As FECO is highly potent, it is important to consume a very small amount to begin with. This is to understand how FECO will affect you. Of course, the amount of FECO can be adjusted in the future. Furthermore, FECO can also be added to topicals such as lotions or pain salves. Apply FECO topically for absorption through the skin and into the bloodstream.

I have been working on making FECO with mixed results, probably because of the product I’m starting with. I am doing something different, that makes sense to me, but, I have not heard anyone discuss. After extraction and straining, I put the extraction into a still, cook the alcohol off and recapture it for my next batch. What I end up with is what has me confused at the moment. I end with what I believe is FECO on the bottom of the still, but, there is a greenish/yellowish liquid in with the dark FECO material. I’m not sure what it is. It does not freeze. If you could offer some clarification, it would be appreciated.
Hi this is my first time trying to make oil I’m trying to learn how to make edibles does it matter on what kind of weed you use
Hey Jessica, it does- it depends on the results you want to feel and achieve. Relaxed, chill and on the couch? Or alert, awake and ready to take on the world?! That’s your choice! 🙂

Does this recipe call for 1 ounce of decarbed Cannabis? Or does it not matter if it was decarboxylated before starting the recipe
The recipe calls for 1 ounce dry cannabis.
According to rick simpson: During this process, the cannabis is being decarbed properly. But i guess if you want to decarb it prior. U can to.
