So, i find it very bennificial to save all 3 of these things. And I do. They come in great hand at times. So when im dry, like now. except my small amouint of hash, i can smoke that dirty ass resin. For the stems, i grind them up in the grinder and collect the crystals from them. and i actualyl get quite a bit. Helps contribute to my crystal collection which will be made into some hash and smoked soon. Do alot of people save up little collections.
i made some hash today with a bunch of stems and shake.... im about to sample it!!! damn this hash is good!
yeah dude there is no reason not to save the stems, leaves or crumbs for later. it's always worth the effort to try and either smoke them or (ideally) make some iso-hash with them. if it can save me an extra few bucks in the end, the why not?? i always break apart my bud inside the baggie so that any small chunks that fall off are collected in the bag. after a few bowls, i've got enough shake for another small bowl. if i wasn't so conservative with my weed, then i wouldn't have that extra smoke!
so how do you guys make hash out of stems? i have a bunch...just figured i might as well save em for something. last time we made stem tea, it tasted kinda interesting but i'm not too sure if it did anything else.
well ive just been starting to save stems and i had about 12 grams saved up and then i tryed it out with the butane honey oil extraction. it works pretty good and i got more then i thought that i was going to get. i just got a piece of pvc pipe and did it that way and it was pretty easy. i just did a tester to see how well it would work with some like half empty cans of butane. i have to say from not very good stems i just mixed it with the couple bowls of bud that i had and i got BAKED. me and my friend that i i did it with (i did it at his house) were both surprised how high we got off such a small amount of oil. im definatly going to be trying this again as soon as i get more stems to try it with. once i get more fresh stems im going to mix it in with the old stems i used once because i didnt run much butane through them. i just ground them up in my grinder it was alot easier then you would imagine.
ISO hash is easy.... get 2 mason jars any size. ~put your stems in one mason jar. ~on the other mason jar rubber band some cheese cloth or a coffee filter over the top. In the jar with the stems ~pour in some 91%(70 or higher%) isopropyl alcohol. ~just enough so the stems are drenched, not floating. ~shake the jar for 10-20 seconds. Pour the mixture into the filter on the other jar. ~take the filter off ~notice that there is only light yellow alcohol in the jar Pour the alcohol into a pyrex(glass) baking dish. ~let the alcohol air evaporate ~or blow it with a hair dryer in a well ventilated area. ~notice that there is only a yellowish film on the bottom of the baking dish. no alcohol left Scrape the film off with a razor blade thats is. if you use a hair dryer you can go from stem to hash in <15 minuets
omg...i wish i knew how to do that like 6 months ago...i had about 17g's of some zona stems...woulda been alot better than the stem tea i made...DAMN!
Mix your shit weed and left overs in with good weed when you're rolling joints for other people who don't know any better. Whenever people come over that I don't like, I always have them smoke my vape ash or something like that. Never give them the goo.
Oh man, thats cruel! I've never tasted anything worse than vape leftovers. I guess if you don't like them though...
I go to a lot of parties where there's someone's gf or whatever that "sorta smokes". No sense in giving her good shit if she's just going to cough it up and lose it through the night.
