First of all I am going to teach you all how to make a quick cannabis baked good. This is called a fire cracker, it consists of a cracker some type of fat based oil(peanut butter in this case), and some good old weed. =)
If you don't know what a firecracker is, it is basically .5 grams of weed super charged into an edible form that will get you high for 5-7 hours. This is a very very very good way to conserve your weed.
Even if you don't want to make it just try activating you inactive THA into THC, because your weed can grow in potency and save you money. =)
BTW I got this recipe from CptnGarden at the Shroomery.com forums.

How to Activate your inactive THC
-----------------------------------------------
First of all, bake your pot on a sheet of tin foil at 250-260deg until when you pinch a nug it breaks apart into dust (usualy 10-15 mins for somewhat fresh stuff)
This is the process of converting 80-90% of whatever inactive alkaloids are left into thc and thcv
sometimes it can double or even triple the potency of your bud if you try smoking it after this process... it will bake out most of the smell and flavor though, so if your picky about that and dont care more for the medical sedation, then maybe its not for you. i can make an ounce last much longer this way though.
How to make Firecrackers
----------------------------------
Get:
Box of graham crackers
A jar of high-fat creamy peanut butter(Organic not jiff)
Chocolate chips
Toothpick
Break the cracker in half so u have two equaly sized squares, and swab em both with peanut butter so theres at least 1/2cm to a full cm of peanut swabbed on one side of each cracker. You should be able to just pinch and roll a nug in your finger and have it turn into coffee-grinder style dust if you used the above method of increasing potency. Sprinkle 0.25 on each cracker half and use the toothpick to mix it in with the peanut butter... Add as many chocolate chips to one side as u think u will enjoy, and press em together, wrap em tightly in tin foil, and bake on the top or top middle rack at 320deg for 20 minutes.
one shouldnt worry about the peanut butter being runny once it heats, and the tinfoil makes sure theres no mess and that it doesnt burn the outside but lets it heat to the right temperatures. when the peanut butter gets hot it will turn solid like clay, it doesnt get runny.
Graham crackers are best for this cause they add to the flavor, i used to just add saltines and it wasnt that good. now i add graham crackers and a few chocolate chips, the thc and peanut oil usualy get soaked into the cracker, making the whole thing one solid biscuit of yum.
anyways, make a few of these and use that preparation i first spoke of, it will make a whole world of difference to your potency both edible and smoked.
the documented research behind pre-baking
---------------------------------------------------------------------
"In many instances, it is possible that cooking will increase the potency of marijuana.
In freshly harvested hemp much, and sometimes all, of its THC is present in the form of
tetrahydrocannabinolic acid. The percentage depends upon such factors as time of harvest and the climate in which
the plant itself was grown. Unripe grass or grass grown in northern climates is likely to contain more THC acid than THC.
The acid is not psychoactive, but upon drying much of it converts to active THC
by a natural process known as decarboxylation.
Most of the remaining acid will convert to THC during a period of two years.
Unfortunately, much of this THC will oxidize in this much time.
If the decarboxylation could take place in an oxygen-free environment,
oxidation would not simultaneously occur. The application of heat
can further decarboxylate uncoverted THC acids in the dried product."
and
"If the material containing the THC acids is heated to about 212ºF (boiling temperature of water)
for 75 minutes in a nitrogen of carbon dioxide atmosphere (one free of oxygen),
all of these acids will convert to THC. Traditional cannabis recipes often call for sauteing of the ganja in oil or butter before using.
The oil protects the product from oxygen, while the heat activates the THC.
This activation also occurs in the extraction of hash oil from weed and in any
hash manufacturing procedures where heating or boiling is involved."
