THC Content in fan leaves of flowering female plants?

Can anyone tell me if there's higher THC in the fan leaves near the buds (just started flowering) or higher THC in the stems that lead to the leaves? The stems are rough and smell really strong, whereas the leaves don't really smell as much, I don't think, but I have a cold. Oh, another thing, I'm really desperate to get something out of this, so could I smoke non-dried leaves / stems and get anything out of it, or no?

And please, refrain from saying stuff like "a fat blunt of dirt weed will get you higher than stems/leaves" because I already know that! I don't have any bud at the moment, not even mexican brick weed!

That being said, feel free to flame me, but please help me answer the question.

Ill sometimes put some leaves in a paper bag for a few days then smoke them in a test tube. Otherwise in a pipe or whatever the smoke is much too harsh (chlorophyll and whatever). The high I get is weak and doesnt last very long but its something plus these are leaves from a plant that is not fully matured. I do this with the stems too. There are ways to make hash with leaves and stems but it may be too much effort.

Anything that has THC on it will get you high. Leaves, stems, premature buds. You have to dry it out though. Just cut a bud off now,quik dry it, and smoke it. Probably not the best advise to give you, but it works if your desperate.

from what i understand of how the plant works; thc is only produced in the trichome heads (the crystals)....so therefore, if the fan leaf in question has some trichs, then yes you can get high off of it; if not, then you are just smoking for the hell of it.

Sweet leaf is great the little leaves on the buds as for the rest stems, fan leaves, trim, ect. Make butter or bubble hash.

The male leaves are even better. I've got 3 male plants 22", 29" & 31"ers in the flower room now. As soon as I finish my dryer box I will dry them then next week they'll be hash.

My female trim leaves are just as johnnyquest said.

i took sum water leafs of my girls cut em up in a bowl took all the leaf stems and shit out (cuz those are what give u headaches so bad ) and rolled em into balls dried them out in front of a fan and smoked a couple bowls and got pretty damn high lol , but my girls are a month into flowering so the thc levels might be higher (oh and just cause theirs trichomes doesnt always mean thc the thc develops as the plant flowers )

My plant is about 1 month into flowering. Aside from the budding part, do fan leaves or stems have more THC in them? The leaves just smell like leaves... but the stems are rough and i can grind my fingers against them and there's like slightly powdery stuff that comes off

the leaves have more thc at this point. I put my trimming from 5 plants in an open container at the bottom of the grow cab. then threw out the week i smoke the dry but just a little moist ones. it keeps with a small hourish mild stone. The good trims from the male plant are very high in thc giving you the :joint: "I think i'll just watch this tv show because the remote is out of reach" :joint: type buzz.

the stems really don't have much thc thier is sum but its not enough to be worth smoking all the other chemicals in the stems, think of stems as pipes that bring the materials the plant leafs need and the buds need to develop so baisically if u smoke the stems ur smokin all those nutes u put into ur soil

There are simple ways to make basic hash. Don't smoke the leaves its not worth it. Grind the leaves and stems up in a blender then put into a jar add rubbing alcohol the higher the % the better. shake 1 minute. poor through a coffee filter onto a pyrex dish. put a fan over that dish to remove the alcohol. Use a card to scrap the hash into a ball. BANG done. and no your all wrong it doesnt matter what kind of Alcohol because it evaporates away. That is hash making on the simplest scale. your wellcome
