What to do with the trimmings

[GoingGreenVirginia]

My first legal grow should start next week, tracking says on Tuesday of next week.

Before that though a question for the grow hive mind.

Is there any use for trimmings from plant grooming during veg and flower stages pre harvest?

 

[go go kid]

dont use the words hive mind, its got roots in a chemistry website for making hard drugs n shit
not realy, pre harvest for the most part wont have too much of anything of worth in it/on it. when the glands start forming is a differant matter, then its worth saving for smoking/making dry sift for hash or edibles

compost them

ice buble hash cleans the trimmings greatm I have a 3 bag system... But I think there are ones with even small micron bags... 6 bag? can be done with ice, water, container, and a coffee filter though to be honest... and an electric egg beater.

I throw mine into the woods. During mid flower the leaves start to get sticky, but I'm not defoliating that deep into the game.

No the trim during veg and early flower is worthless outside of clones.

That's easy my property is mostly a dense oak forest.

Might try to turn to them into art with epoxy resin, maybe a tabletop. Wouldn't mind persevering a leaf from every strain I grow.

You haven't even started your grow and your already getting antsy about cutting off the leaves? Don't cut any. Let the plants grow. You don't have to cut off the leaves. It might make the plants look cool but it's not required and actually hinders growth. Defoliation does not improve yield.

Sun leaves are trash or compost, but all the little sugar leaves are great for making kief or bubble hash. Just throw it in the freezer fresh, and when you have enough, make a run.

I use all the trimmings to make FPJ. What I save for dry ice hash gets tossed in the FPJ bucket once it's been processed. That then gets used as fertilizer for my soil grown plants.

Roll it up in baggy and drop in random places, play grounds, school yards, park benches.
