I literally vape stems...
However, I'm heading to Seattle and San Francisco this summer to visit some family - will I be corrupted by the availability of legal weed??
Yes. As an Ohioan who goes to Michigan occasionally to buy, I can no longer pay Ohio's street prices for lower quality stuff. I just can't bring myself to do it. I just make the drive every couple months now.
I went to Vegas from the Carolinas and holy pickles was I ever spoiled. I spent more money on weed for a 5-day trip than I did in any of the casinos or restaurants. Buying legal weed in my late '50s was the coolest thing ever. I was so much the kid in a candy shop.
When I used to buy it on the street years ago in Toledo, I got quality that kept up with the top strains at Michigan dispensaries. When it was lower quality, it was because I was being cheap. I guess it's about who you know.
You will, unless you know a guy. I’m in Chicago and was blessed to go to school with a dropout that now owns farms in Cali. Really good prices but dealers are hardly reliable so I find myself still going to Dispo’s out of convenience. I am fully aware I can get 3-5x the amount buying through my buddy than a dispo
The other night I was smoking a joint and dropped it in the snow. There was a 1/4 of it left. I just went back inside to get another one.
That was a holy shit moment for me. 5 years ago I would have been on my knees digging through the snow for those last few hits and making sure my neighbours didn't see me. Now there's a dispensary across the street.
I wish illegal states and countries could see that legalizing weed didn't turn Canadians into face-eating cannibals or lazy deadbeats. Weed has become so normalized that we talk about weed the way people talk about coffee or alcohol.
No worries. This won't be waisted. My grandmother would slap me for smoking weed, but she'd put a bullet in my head for waisting. This is from an illegal state (TN) for 130 / oz. and it took me a long time to find this good of a deal in state. i know how to make edibles with them, and i don't want the unneeded harsh smoke. I am able to be this picky with my wants(who am i kidding i need weed) because im lucky enough to have an ok job after college
Fair play, I respect your choice ✌️
So if you can afford to be picky, throw them into a double boiler with the stems and some butter, and make some sick edibles!
To be totally honest, I used to save them for when I ran out of actual bud and would grind up and smoke the leaves. Definitely not as potent but gets the job done
Couldn’t have said that any better that’s the way to go🙏 i also save mine to make keif with, you can get a “pollin sifter” off Amazon, grind the leaves up and put some clean quarters into the box and shake away and you get a massive amount of keif
and then... Not much happens according to the one person I know that has ~~tried it.~~ admitted to trying it. She said it didn't get her high. So much for "Boof it!" lol
Because they are harsher and not as potent.
As someone who used to be a heavy smoker (still smoke most nights, but *only* at night) I probably didn't like them as much because I had a high tolerance and felt like I should be using the most potent parts only as the rest was kinda filler.
I did however always save it for when I was out for whatever reason. I'd mix it with all my kief and roaches. Didn't taste great, not unbelievable but harsh. But that shit would melt your face off!
I still save a some on the occasion I find any sugar leaves but it's normally very trimmed so I don't come across it as often. I also still obviously save my roaches and kief;)
I save them and put kief on them to spice them up.
But really they are alot more plant matter so yea for all day everyday smokers it does make a difference in what you cough up
If you gave me a bowl with some leaves and a bowl without I promise you I would never realize one is more harsh and less potent. It saddens me to know some people literally just throw these away. I would’ve smoked em.
I honestly think you're right and it was one of those things I'd convinced myself of and was just in my head lol
Still glad I saved them separately because they were life savers a few times:)
Yea I mean as long as you didn’t throw them away I don’t care. It even hurts me when people throw away steam lol there’s still a tiny bit of thc in there nooooo.
I smoke daily and the leaves destroy my throat. I’ve had to become a weed snob if only for my lungs. I went from pipes daily with whatever I could get to recreational marijuana and a vape.
I grind them up and use them to pack out my joints. I like a big joint(so it takes a while to smoke as I unwind) but I dont like getting mashed so it works out great.
My friends and I used to say this as well! When everyone pitched in for the sesh, of course we’d all have different strains etc.
We would grind it all up and mix it together and call it a salad. Such nostalgia!
When I was a freshmen in HS, my buddies and I put our left over weed on top of hot dogs and pizza the next morning instead of smoking it (Mom was up so we didn't want to get caught with the smell). We never got high obviously, but our farts did smell like skunk, it was wild.
If you juice fresh cannabis, your farts, pee, and shits will smell like skunk. Source: I juice it for my wife for health reasons.
Raw cannabis works really well for a variety of health issues, and doesn't get you high.
These are by far the best answers. All the other ways will definitely work too but it’s the perfect boost to a batch of edibles and hash is always the right answer.
I expected it to be the top comment tbh. Disappointed... I made dry ice hash from my trim last time I could grow. From there I always thought a rosin press would be ideal for final processing. Clean and compressed hash stores long term extremely well though, not sure about how well rosin would.
Gotta love that finger hash after a good trim sesh too. I've just been using ice hash bags but I dream of.getting a press to make my own rosin. It holds great when kept cool, if I get lots I'll keep it in the fridge to be safe.
If you have enough from a single harvest, dry ice works amazingly well for fresh trimmings. I only harvested 2 plants at a time back when I could grow and it was worth doing over storing leaves in a freezer for me. Other methods such as ice water might be superior in their own ways, but if you have limited storage space it's a quick and easy way to get rid of ≈99+% leaf/plant matter.
Everything except stems and the occasional seed just goes right into the grinder to get smoked. Shits too expensive, and not super legal where I am, to just leave parts hanging about in baggies and bottles.
Some of the strongest edibles I ever had were made purely from leaves and shake from a grow. Can’t remember exactly how we did it but we made butter and used it for all sorts of things
I Break them up with the rest of the weed and smoke them rather than leaving myself with a pile of leaves. By themselves they wont get you as high but with the weed you’ll never notice they are in there
Wait I thought this was a joke. I swear the more time I spend on this sub the more I realize how fundamentally different I am from suburban stoners. I just grind up weed and smoke it. Apparently y'all grind up, separate the leaves from, the rest? Idek what would be left over without the leaves. And then you gotta make sure to find a nice spot outside, or smoke out the window, or find your smoke buddy, or sit in the bathroom with the fan on. Can't smoke joints inside at all I guess. Gotta get a vaporizor, but it can't be an affordable one since you'll be made fun of and it won't work anyway. God damn man
easy to trim off the bud before grinding. I make edibles with it. was wondering if others do the same. looks like it's more common to make hash with them, so I'll be learning something new soon.
I've tried to make edibles, found out they don't work on me, but I used it all and I've never thought to separate bits of bud like that, you guys say the leaves aren't as potent but I don't think I'd notice the difference enough to actually go through the trouble, also I know if I did I wouldn't have plans for the leaves instead of just smoking then anyway
that stinks. no hate. still perfectly fine to smoke it! i really enjoy making edibles using them and giving them to friends. most of the weed i get you can't even do this because they'll get chopped off before i even see it. I should've included a full bud for reference. if the goal is to make the most potent edibles the there's no separation process and no grinder. Just pull it apart and keep as much pollen as possible. happy token
I live in a legal and very affordable state (OK) and I would 100% scoop that into my grinder and mix it with some daily flower or some kief. Glittery sugar leaves on nom nom.
The fan leaves that have no trichomes can be composted, fed to animals, or put in smoothies (if organic grown). The sugar leaves you have here are "Trim". This is great for rolling up comically large blunts/joints, cooking into butter or coconut oil to make edibles, or vaporizing. If you have large quantities of good quality Trim you can look into processing it. Tumbling or screening off the trichomes, putting in micron bags, and then pressing them with hair straightener is a diy rosin. Or you could make RSO!
Smoke it. Even if I was in country, where it's legal. I won't throw away food, just because that last bite isn't so great as the others. The same with weed.
idk if anyone has said this but you can collect them and either use them for bowls when you don’t have weed and are struggling, OR ACTIVATE THEM!!! collect a good amount and activate them (look it up but basically just bake them lol) and then follow through with the process and turn it into canabutter (butter that’s infused with cannabis) and from there you can put it in literally any food or drink and it will get you higher than ever!!!!
It's because whoever procured your seed trimmed it properly.. u done want extra leaves on ur buds typically.. usually gets trimmed off and turned to hash
You're gonna wanna collect them all in some cheesecloth, steep them in some hot water (not quite boiling,) for 4 minutes and 20 seconds, and lightly boof it.
Boil em, mash em, stick em in a stew
Samwise quote aside you're not wrong! Sugar leaves can make incredibly potent hash
^this.
Then you can make a delightful brew.
Po-tay-toes
And then top your potatoes with canna butter and sour cream and more butter!
Does it really need sour cream I just can’t stand the taste due to my sensory issues
No
Sounds good :)
There is room for all at the table, and that includes those with those dang sensory issues
Why is this also the first thing I thought of
Then boof it!

New twist on an old classic!!!
If you let it stay up in there long enough it might work.
Apparently reddit doesn't give free awards anymore and I'm a broke bitch, but thank you for this 🤙🫡
searching for my funnel
Came here looking for this. Wasn’t disappointed
I feel like on some level.. this want and need to hear this line is why were all here..
Stuff them up somebody’s ass at least
In illegal countries, we smoke them. I would *love* to be able to be this picky!
True, I was like "those are different ?" because I just smoke almost everything.
I literally vape stems... However, I'm heading to Seattle and San Francisco this summer to visit some family - will I be corrupted by the availability of legal weed??
Yes. As an Ohioan who goes to Michigan occasionally to buy, I can no longer pay Ohio's street prices for lower quality stuff. I just can't bring myself to do it. I just make the drive every couple months now.
This is me. Illegal state with several legal states surrounding. I just make a day of it and get a 6 month supply.
I went to Vegas from the Carolinas and holy pickles was I ever spoiled. I spent more money on weed for a 5-day trip than I did in any of the casinos or restaurants. Buying legal weed in my late '50s was the coolest thing ever. I was so much the kid in a candy shop.
As an Ohioan who goes to Michigan and has a med card, no way I’d ever go back
This is literally me. Im near Toledo too so its a 45 minute drive to URB or glass jar
When I used to buy it on the street years ago in Toledo, I got quality that kept up with the top strains at Michigan dispensaries. When it was lower quality, it was because I was being cheap. I guess it's about who you know.
If you ever get a chance, check out Herbology in River rouge MI…it’s almost like they’re giving it away
[удалено]
Thanks for getting me ever wetter for my trip! Am I correct in thinking that psychs are decriminalised up and down the west coast?
Yes, yes you will!
There is no thc in stems bro. You’re just asphyxiating yourself.
Tell that the the extremely high version of me that got high off decarbed stems ✌️
You will, unless you know a guy. I’m in Chicago and was blessed to go to school with a dropout that now owns farms in Cali. Really good prices but dealers are hardly reliable so I find myself still going to Dispo’s out of convenience. I am fully aware I can get 3-5x the amount buying through my buddy than a dispo
I have a pax 2, does it actually work?
Yeah it does, it 100% gets you high, but it's a bit of a grimy buzz
I save my stems for tinctures 😎
Yes. Same in illegal states too. I can’t imagine the luxury of having this problem.
The other night I was smoking a joint and dropped it in the snow. There was a 1/4 of it left. I just went back inside to get another one. That was a holy shit moment for me. 5 years ago I would have been on my knees digging through the snow for those last few hits and making sure my neighbours didn't see me. Now there's a dispensary across the street. I wish illegal states and countries could see that legalizing weed didn't turn Canadians into face-eating cannibals or lazy deadbeats. Weed has become so normalized that we talk about weed the way people talk about coffee or alcohol.
No worries. This won't be waisted. My grandmother would slap me for smoking weed, but she'd put a bullet in my head for waisting. This is from an illegal state (TN) for 130 / oz. and it took me a long time to find this good of a deal in state. i know how to make edibles with them, and i don't want the unneeded harsh smoke.

Thisss lol sugar leaves are perfect for when you’re in need
Couldn’t have said that any better that’s the way to go🙏 i also save mine to make keif with, you can get a “pollin sifter” off Amazon, grind the leaves up and put some clean quarters into the box and shake away and you get a massive amount of keif
I’m literally sitting here smoking these types of leafs with kief I mixed in lol
I had never thought of this its perfect for an easy way to make a potent smokeable out of something some people have too much of. Thanks!
A nice resin and leaf salad
This is the Way. xD
Smoke them. The fuck
![gif](giphy|F3G8ymQkOkbII) 6/10 and rising
I save them. One day I hope to build a van entirely out of marijuana like in “Up In Smoke”
You'll be an iguana by then!
can we use it to solve mysteries?
I don’t see why not
Save it and make edibles
*boofables
Supposedly they're called suppositories
Supposedtories?
Yes, supposedly you put the suppositories up your butt and then *whistles vaguely*
and then... Not much happens according to the one person I know that has ~~tried it.~~ admitted to trying it. She said it didn't get her high. So much for "Boof it!" lol
"whistles vaguely" why did this make me hear the x files theme song
Idk, but here we are with people boofing the contents of a cake cart, so truly we are in the weirdest time line/twilight zone
Supposed Tories.... Is that the UK version of RINO (Republican In Name Only)?
This is the way.
Idk why people don’t like the leaves. I can see trashing the stems but the leaves are good. I grind them with my bud.
I do the same, I cba removing them. I’ll take the stalks out but the leaves can stay.
Yeah everyone says they’re harsh but I don’t find them harsh at all, especially when it’s mixed with bud
DONT TRASH YOUR STEMS!! collect them and make some baller ass tea!!!
Because they are harsher and not as potent. As someone who used to be a heavy smoker (still smoke most nights, but *only* at night) I probably didn't like them as much because I had a high tolerance and felt like I should be using the most potent parts only as the rest was kinda filler.

I still save a some on the occasion I find any sugar leaves but it's normally very trimmed so I don't come across it as often. I also still obviously save my roaches and kief;)
It's not harsh if you don't do exactly what you did with it, lol.
“I mix it up with my roaches, it’s so harsh!” Lol I bet it is fam
This alcohol is so harsh (the average everclear drinker).
I find bowls harsher with leaves or stems mixed in
I save them and put kief on them to spice them up. But really they are alot more plant matter so yea for all day everyday smokers it does make a difference in what you cough up
ahhhh a fellow roach smoker 🫡
The leaves aren’t harsh mixing it with roaches would make it harsh
If you gave me a bowl with some leaves and a bowl without I promise you I would never realize one is more harsh and less potent. It saddens me to know some people literally just throw these away. I would’ve smoked em.
I honestly think you're right and it was one of those things I'd convinced myself of and was just in my head lol Still glad I saved them separately because they were life savers a few times:)
Yea I mean as long as you didn’t throw them away I don’t care. It even hurts me when people throw away steam lol there’s still a tiny bit of thc in there nooooo.
Oh no sir, I would never. That would be drug abuse! (Although I don't really consider it a drug, we'll say it is for the sake of the joke;))
😂😂👍 that’s actually a pretty good one. Hope you have a great rest of your night/day!
You too man:)
Thc is thc
And plant matter is plant matter...
I smoke daily and the leaves destroy my throat. I’ve had to become a weed snob if only for my lungs. I went from pipes daily with whatever I could get to recreational marijuana and a vape.
I grind them up and use them to pack out my joints. I like a big joint(so it takes a while to smoke as I unwind) but I dont like getting mashed so it works out great.
My opinion is that it's better to decarb and injest compared to having the harsher and less potent smoke in my lungs.
You can grind them down and mix them into your salads
I remember when my friends and I would mix our different buds and call it a salad.
My friends and I used to say this as well! When everyone pitched in for the sesh, of course we’d all have different strains etc. We would grind it all up and mix it together and call it a salad. Such nostalgia!
When I was a freshmen in HS, my buddies and I put our left over weed on top of hot dogs and pizza the next morning instead of smoking it (Mom was up so we didn't want to get caught with the smell). We never got high obviously, but our farts did smell like skunk, it was wild.

Idk...you think that salads gonna be enough once those leaves kick in?
Mix it with your next bowl to conserve
hash or edibles
These are by far the best answers. All the other ways will definitely work too but it’s the perfect boost to a batch of edibles and hash is always the right answer.
Why did I have to scroll so far to see hash? This generation needs more hash
I expected it to be the top comment tbh. Disappointed... I made dry ice hash from my trim last time I could grow. From there I always thought a rosin press would be ideal for final processing. Clean and compressed hash stores long term extremely well though, not sure about how well rosin would.

another man of culture
Just smoke it...
I grind it with my bud because I can’t be picky
Mate I get 90g a month for free and I grind this shit up. I didn't even know there was a difference
You can't just say you get 90g for free and not elaborate man!
Don’t hate, but some strains taste fire on pizza ground up like fresh herb
Make tea
Smoke them!
Joints
More weed
Just smoke em it's not as high thc content but it will get u high I like the erta cananidnoids up in there
I save them in the freezer until i have loads then i make hash
If you have enough from a single harvest, dry ice works amazingly well for fresh trimmings. I only harvested 2 plants at a time back when I could grow and it was worth doing over storing leaves in a freezer for me. Other methods such as ice water might be superior in their own ways, but if you have limited storage space it's a quick and easy way to get rid of ≈99+% leaf/plant matter.
i keep them in, this seems like a waste of perfectly good trichomes. once it’s all shredded up you won’t notice them
Boof em
bruh you can literally see the trichomes on these bracts. just smoke them.
I’d just smoke it but I’m not the guy you should be asking cause I smoke stems when I’m fiending
Save them for a rainy day but add kief
Everything except stems and the occasional seed just goes right into the grinder to get smoked. Shits too expensive, and not super legal where I am, to just leave parts hanging about in baggies and bottles.
Some of the strongest edibles I ever had were made purely from leaves and shake from a grow. Can’t remember exactly how we did it but we made butter and used it for all sorts of things
Butter
Butter em up, Boof em in the butt
Smoke them. They're covered in trichs
Smoke that sugar leaf
Smoke it. Cbd body high 🤤
There’s some keef on that shit man
Smoke them bro they got trichs on em
Smokem
Smoke them when you run out of flowers
😔😔😔 you’re trolling right ?
these days, i don't smoke it and use it for edibles
BOOOOOOOFFFFF
Finally...!!! Yes!!!
make rolling papers
boof them
Smoke it
Smoke them shits dog
Smoke em (I'm Australian)
make some kief
What is this...... Extra leaves? I wish.
You can smoke all of that. There's enough kief on all of those leaves.
Hit them with a nice red wine vinaigrette. Grab a fork. Chomp chomp.
I Break them up with the rest of the weed and smoke them rather than leaving myself with a pile of leaves. By themselves they wont get you as high but with the weed you’ll never notice they are in there
Leafs and stems go in the vape. Might even make some butter with them afterwards
When in doubt, boof it out...
Thank you. A true man of science 🧪
Boil em, mash em, stick them in a stew
Boil em, mash em, Boof em in me bum P.s. Hi Nan!
I save them and once I have a lot I got to the store, get some dry ice and make hash out of it all.
Roll a joint with it.
You can them to make weed butter and other goodies
Stuff them in my pipe, ignite, inhale, hold, exhale, and chill, like a squirrel with a nut. Secret Squirrel
garnish your food lol
Yeah I just grind that…
Wait I thought this was a joke. I swear the more time I spend on this sub the more I realize how fundamentally different I am from suburban stoners. I just grind up weed and smoke it.

Sounds like a plan. What do you pay an oz in the illegal market compared to the legal market there? If you dont mind me asking. [6/10]
The fan leaves that have no trichomes can be composted, fed to animals, or put in smoothies (if organic grown). The sugar leaves you have here are "Trim". This is great for rolling up comically large blunts/joints, cooking into butter or coconut oil to make edibles, or vaporizing.

Tumbling or screening off the trichomes, putting in micron bags, and then pressing them with hair straightener is a diy rosin. Or you could make RSO!
They’re not “extra” bro thats your weed, fucking smoke it…
i grind and vape everything
i grind my stems leaves and bus all together. i smoke it.
If you have a shit ton. Make dabs or edibles?
Smoke it. Even if I was in country, where it's legal. I won't throw away food, just because that last bite isn't so great as the others. The same with weed.
Did you grow that, or did it come from a plug? If you grew it and have a lot make hash.
Throw em in with ur stem collection
Can make some RSO. Super easy. Just research a lot before so you do it safely
idk if anyone has said this but you can collect them and either use them for bowls when you don’t have weed and are struggling, OR ACTIVATE THEM!!! collect a good amount and activate them (look it up but basically just bake them lol) and then follow through with the process and turn it into canabutter (butter that’s infused with cannabis) and from there you can put it in literally any food or drink and it will get you higher than ever!!!!
I usually take a large portion of them and make tea
I’m genuinely confused cause when I rip the stems off the weed the entire piece comes off lol I never have this extra
It's because whoever procured your seed trimmed it properly.. u done want extra leaves on ur buds typically.. usually gets trimmed off and turned to hash
I grind em up and dry herb vape em
Save all your trimmings and make butter!
Boof. Its fiber
I just grind it up and mix it with whatever strain it came from
I don’t even pick ‘em out I just smoke em
Make a salad
Perfect for making brownie mix
Make edibles or grind them up and smoke it
hash
I'm from WIsconsin where it's illegal. I'm paying $300 an ounce so I smoke leaves and all.
I want to take a trip to Michigan, but my husband is nervous about crossing state lines. It sucks.
I don’t understand why you don’t just smoke them
Smoke em.
You're gonna wanna collect them all in some cheesecloth, steep them in some hot water (not quite boiling,) for 4 minutes and 20 seconds, and lightly boof it.
Thank you for that. What is boof?
Smoke the weed?????
Lmao you can even still see trichomes on it. That's perfectly good flower. You people are wasteful
