Thank you. I'll let you know if I don't get scared of this based on the other posters input.

Thank you for your concern and advice. I was actually going to preamble my post with something like "you might think I'm dumb, but...". I guess I base my confidence in the PM being able to pass through the membranes from my past experience as a smoker, now a vaper, and also my vaping of "4:20" on different device. In each case the target substances (and many other foul ones in the case of smoking) do enter the bloodstream. However, you are right and the molecules in the PM tincture might be too large/wrong type compared to nicotine, THC, etc., and it is not good to take a chance by making myself a guinea pig. Having the equipment and ingredients I thought I was being ingenious LOL, but you have shined some light and I feel a bit scared now. I'll seriously consider not continuing this.

Yes, sublingual delivery would be totally effective in terms of absorption--no need for me to experiment with inhaling. However, my thinking was that instead of an all-at-once dose, inhaling over a day would keep a constant level in the bloodstream. Thanks for your other points and about skin application using coconut oil. I have been using PM tincture mixed with flaxseed oil for skin application. Do you think that is a good carrier (after a good shake)?
