Burning them in a fire pit under some wood palets would work pretty good. That's what I plan on doing. Either that or ditching them in the woods.

during the winter we burn trim and stems....

put a piece of hardwood like hickory or something when you burn a few plants at once

other way would to get yourself a lil chipper and put the stuff into the compost or in the trash after chipping them a few times. works best if the stuff was in the freezer for a day;)

You don't have to worry about the smell if you burn them in a firepit? I got a giant firepit in my backyard for burning all the greenary that I'm always trimming from the landscape... Its actually loaded again and ready for another burn... I was thinking of that myself, I was just thinking about the smell of burning weed plants? Do they not smell unless they are way into their flowering stage? They arent very big at the moment, maybe 2' tall

Closest neighbors are around 100 yards away (I have 2 neighbors total, one to each side).

it is a question of heat really, if you have enough combustibles in between you can burn a body without much smell, same goes with weed. and if it is dry it will burn even better and with less smell. just see that this fire gets damn hot, so lots of wood and air and you are fine.

WHAT! just cut them up and flush down the toilet. LOL simple
I was gona say the same thing, however he mentioned some of the plants were ~2ft tall...that'll take a long time to chop up and flush, it would be rather unwise to do so. Cuz if you clog it, and can't get it unclogged who do you have to call?...the plumber

"Uh...sir no no those aren't marijuana plants...my shit just looks like it"

basically this is a option but you have to watch that those peaces are damn small (below an inch) and you flush in small doses only (never more then a hand full). i know a former grower who got busted because is sink tub was plugged by plant material and cops got called in by the hydro crew. so it is not that risk free as you can see;)

right, you would have to run it thru the chipper a gazillion times to get it small enough...:roll:

Flushing wont work for me. I'm on a septic, gotta be very carefull with what I put down there, or its a 2k bill to get it unplugged (and bring someone out!)...

Good to know on the fire... It's normally packed with pine needles and they burn VERY hot, so I should be good there!!

Thanks much for the info!

Is this a joke. LOL You guys need to stop smoking. You're loosing your minds. If you cut up a plant in tiny pieces i don't see why you wont be able to flush down the toilet. WHAT THE HELL LOL.
