Tincture of cannabis

Tincture of cannabis, sometimes known as green dragon, is an alcoholic cannabis concentrate. The solubility of THC in ethanol is greater than 1 g/mL.

History
Cannabis tincture appeared in the United States Pharmacopoeia until 1942 (Australia 1977, UK 1970s). The pharmacological target for cannabis, the endocannabinoid system, has been researched since its discovery in the 1980s. == Preparation ==
Preparation
The tincture is typically made by soaking the dried flowers of the female hemp plant (marijuana) in ethanol. The tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and other cannabinoids dissolve into the alcohol. Some preparations also extract some of the water-based plant products such as chlorophyll, resulting in a dark green or brown liquid. Baking or drying the cannabis to decarboxylate prior to the alcohol bath increases the amount of THC in the resulting preparation. == Methods of use ==
