I knew exactly what pistils were i just wasnt sure what happend to them after full maturity. oh and btw that sounds retarded " hash is made from the tichomes that form on the leaves"... no shit. you still make it out of the leaves. most plants have trichs right???? so you can make hash out of it even though it wont get you high.
wrong again my friend, most plants do not grow trichomes. cannabinoids are found inside trichs and calyxes, not leaves, not pistils.

don't bother asking a question if you're going to ridicule the 1 person that gives you the correct answer. it makes you look like the retard

100% THC hash. Sorry but you just crack me up with laughter (100% THC).

Phytocannabinoids, also called natural cannabinoids, herbal cannabinoids, and classical cannabinoids, are only known to occur naturally in significant quantity in the cannabis plant, and are concentrated in a viscous resin that is produced in glandular structures known as trichomes. In addition to cannabinoids, the resin is rich in terpenes, which are largely responsible for the odour of the cannabis plant.


see, i can copy and paste too :D

Thats fine and explains nothing to do with your debate but you cant get hash or grass with 100% THC content.

bubble hash is made from brittle trichomes that fall off the leaves and spare buds in a process known as cold-water extraction. pure hash made form pure indica is nearly 100% THC. look it up buddy

just so you know, double posting is against the forum rules

At its max hash can produce a product near to 90% thc but i dont think you have the capability or knowledge to produce such a strong and potent hash and to boot i dont think you know how to make hash let alone grow a plant.

I hate to jump in on this considering how it has been going and I really do not want to take 'the other guy's side' but most plants do have trichomes. Trichomes shade and cool plants and help control moisture loss and some are natural insecticides.The difference in trichomes on cannabis plants and others is others do not have THC/cannabinoid producing trichome heads. And to get a bit more detailed not every trichome head on cannabis plants has THC producing glands.

Here is a small bit of a large piece on trichomes:

Reflective Leaves

Most shifts in leaf coloration to silver and white are attributable to the presence of nonliving plant hairs (trichomes) covering both upper and lower leaf surfaces (desert brittlebush). Trichomes are outgrowths of the outer epidermal cells. Dry nonglandular trichomes tend to be the most reflectant, especially when they are very dense. The whitish, silvery, and other metallic finishes of leaves are general produced by these trichomes (Examples: Psathyrotes ramosissima, Tidestromia oblongifolia, and Dicoria canescens; for another type, upper leaves of Elaeagnus and lower leaves).

The most thoroughly studied case is the reflectant leaf type of desert brittlebush (Encelia farinosa), a desert perennial of western North America. Investigators have demonstrated that the silvery leaves of late spring and summer are several degrees cooler than the same leaf would be if it was lacking the silvery cover of trichomes (leaf comparison). This is because the trichomes reflect infrared radiation that causes heating of objects (just as it does in a microwave oven). Having a cooler leaf on a hot summer day in the desert permits the leaf to avoid reaching the high lethal temperature and, at the same time, reduces its loss of water vapor via transpiration because leaf temperature is lowered.

Have you ever seen a hairy plant?


Plants may appear to have hair, but the technical term for plant hair is trichomes. These trichomes may resemble hair, but they’re not the same as what we mammals have.
Trichomes are not the same as our hair, but insofar as the definition of hair is that it is an outgrowth of the epidermis, then trichomes are for all practical purposes, a kind of hair. Unlike animal hair, though, trichomes are often living cells.


Trichomes can run the gamut in structure, appearance, and texture. Some trichomes are frail, some coarse; some are branched like tree limbs, others star-shaped; some are long and straight, others are short and curly.


Just as mammal hair serves various protective purposes, including insulation and camouflage, so do trichomes. Trichomes can be insulating by keeping frost away from leaf cells. They can help reduce evaporation by protecting the plant from wind and heat. In many cases, trichomes protect plants from herbivorous insects that may want to feed on them. And in some cases, if the trichomes are especially stiff or irritating, they may protect a plant from larger herbivores.
