veg trimmings

[tom slick]

Hey yall first grow underway and we are 4 weeks into veg, its time to top and train . I've goggled the heck out of this question but have seen no clear answers. . my question is, what do I do with the trimmings after I top?? I know that when cleaning cured buds the leaves can be collected and made into a buzz worthy product.... but what about a young plant, can these trimmings contain enough resin to make anything (cannabutter, hash, etc) I see no crystals, but the girls are getting stinky!!!

so the question remains, to toss or to save?? thoughts

your gunna mixed answers on this one but its a good question. My preference is to wait till the leaves start to show a little frost/rsin action, I will save those trimming's gallon ziplock then into the freezer.

I throw away everything I trim off in veg.

 

[mr2shim]

Veg trimmings are useless.

toss

My thoughts...
There's no thrichomes on them usually during veg and even if they are, those thrichomes are not ripe and you won't get any wanted effects off of them. I only kept the trimmings from flower on.

You get stoned off veg leaves? Probanly just feel a bit light headed and spacey for smoking all that leaf matter.

Toss them, there is nothing in the leaf to get you high/stoned.

Put them in your homemade spaghetti sauce.

been sitting here listening to frank zappa wondering how long it would take you all to start the shit .hey you no what don't bark if you ain't tried it ,some pepole that all they got and i'm one of them right now waiting on my girls to finish so don't bark if you haven't tried it

I was just saying that your probably feeling more light headed and fuzzy from all the leaf matter your smoking. If it were leaves from late flower they would be covered in trichomes and you'd get stoned. I know a lot of old school growers that prefer to smoke leaf trimmings(from flower) because of the higher cbd? Irk what reasons. But anyway woof woof

Not too proud to smoke a few leaves while waiting for something better. Done it before. In fact I fondly remember my first time smoking. It was a boring summer. It was known to us that most of the family next door smoked. My older brother convinced our buddy who lived in the home to snatch a few leaves off of an MJ plant his sister was growing in her bedroom. The plan was for him to grab some and we would all "try it" together. After a couple of days of cajoling our buddy made the heist. We dried out those leaves and made a steamroller to smoke out of. Well... it was wonderful. We all got stoned out of our minds off those leaves. Needless to say we went back the next day and pulled off some more. And the next and the day after and so on. Soon we had stripped that poor plant bare lol and we were off.
