Popcorn buds!?

hey guys n gals I'm about 5 weeks in to flower and I've noticed there were many premature popcorn buds showing up so I decided to go ahead and pluck those off, and I was wondering if there was anything I could do with these I already flushed the plant so they should be pure! I was thinking maybe making a citrus mix shake with them or heating it while wrapped in aluminum and wet newspaper at 350 in the oven to activate the trichs...
anyone know if the will work or have any other ideas on what to do with them before I throw em in the oven for a shake??

Nah baking them at 350 wrapped in wet newspaper sounds like it will be good for a laugh. Do that.
so it is a good idea to take some of the smaller underdeveloped buds off during flower right?
so that it will focus more energy at the top where the most light is producing the fattest buds..
I'm going to be 20 in 7 days! ahaha remember that movie "the ring"

If you're wanting to quick dry some popcorn buds this is how I did it and it smoked ok...you'll probably think it tastes like garbage though if you're not used to schwag like I am.

You'll need: Tupperware w/ lid, paper towels, bud.

Chop your bud up into smaller chunks and wrap them in a lightly moistened paper towel. Now place another dry towel in the bottom of your tupper ware and add your buds wrapped in the towel. Keep one corner of the tupper ware open and then pop your buds into the microwave, yes, the microwave, for about 30-45 seconds at 30-40% microwave power. (If you don't know how to do this, enter the microwave time and press the button called "Power Level" on your microwave and then select 3 for 30% power.)

Allow the buds to sit for a minute then make sure your paper towels aren't too wet or too dry, and repeat. This helps quick release the moisture from the buds and will bring it to a smoke-able state in about ten to fifteen minutes. It'll taste like grass/hay but when I did it I still got high. It was a pretty decent high too.

Edit: I don't endorse this method, please cure your buds or use them for hash or the like. You're just ripping yourself off by quick drying them.

If there are a few and you think you could get about 3 gram of bho from them then order the lets vape.eu concentrate bungle and make some e liquid sometimes buds picked early taste very nice ,i pref jack herer picked early for my own smoke but i never normally pick any thing till after week nine,Tip for future get them of the plant just before you flower get the bottoms bare,But every person that has tried our version of jack herer picked at week 8 say the taste is far sweeter,more fruity,than at week 9 but at nine its fire,and the buds are perfectly cooked.

I would advice any one to get there concentrate bungle,it last for ages,good few grows,or two if you use buds to make the bho not just trim,the liquids last a good few days even to the hard core smokers will find it last a while,and more important its dynamite and the taste is nice,it gets more towards hash,taste after a a while.I would defo get one for future use.you get 5 tops that just fit onto any 10 mm batterie,everything you need to make it right

thank you for the very useful information kind sir I will definitely have to do that method with the rest of the buds since I'm moving at the end of the month and they'll probably be small but hope they smoke and smell like the bubblegum but hasn't flowered in 44 days like top 44, looks like sativa dominant... could be because I'm using CFL's and UV blue rays lmao but hope yalls grows turn out better... this is the "hashish" I made looks like spinach to me lol I might just eat it for some fresh cannabinoids ahahah I threw it back in for 10more minutes and compressed it a lil who knows might end up smokable... got some clonies outside should be ready October! hope no one gets my stash!

I thought you said you had popcorn buds?

What am I looking at in these pictures exactly? You said hash but it looks like you clumped together a bunch of stems and leaves and baked it into a cannabis turd.

I did mention they were premature popcorn buds I do believe, and I pulled the smaller ones that weren't getting sufficient lighting so the top colas could swell a bit more... basically like mainlining its energy to the top!

If you pick off the popcorn, at least do a dry & cure otherwise your just wasting weed. Smoking quick dried weed is literally the fucking worst thing ever. Actually i just seen the popcorn harvest lmao, thats not gonna do a damn thing.

Not saying tour wrong but say ur growing inside hydro sog shouldn't you get rid of the tiny side branches so your canopy get the most light and the stuff at the bottom is just wasting energy?
