I got the sample I wanted and didn't have to pluck any buds. I just pulled off 4 little sugar leaves around the bottom of the plant, my fingers after touching them were sticky like tar or glue and smelled very strong of citrus.
I took the 4 small leaves, which is only enough for 2 tokes in a 1 hitter pipe.
I put them in the oven on the lowest setting on a baking tray for less then 10 mins at less then 200 degrees. They were nice and dry very fast. I loaded half up and took a toke, I waited a few minutes and felt very mild effects, so I loaded up the rest and now I am fully baked after not smoking for over a week... Im blazed off the sugar leaf.
Wow...
