you can use the sweet leaf clippings to make hash,butter,oils. the waterleaf and sticks don't have much on them and can ruin the taste sometimes.
easiest way is to make butter, use a slow cooker,put about an 0z of leaf in the cooker with 2 cups of water and 4 sticks of unsalted sweet natural butter. simmer on high for an hour,reduce heat and slow cook for about 7-10 hrs. pour solution thru cheesecloth into a container and put in fridge,when butter hardens on top, poke a hole and drain water,you now have very potent butter. use to cook just like regular butter.

I've read (take it with a large grain of salt though) that leaves and stems etc can have 1-2% thc, and if so and by "buttering" them you could extarct even half, well, a pound of "wastage" might churn out some decent butter, read of a couple of people using their entire male plants that way. Caveat being that it would be best to grind everything up as fine as possible. I know I'll try it with my leftovers, what harm could it do?

put stems in a container with a coin or two and shake it up=keif-

i get rid of most of the fan leaves. they're just not worth it. they'll ruin the taste of the butter, and a TON of butane for relatively low yield.

look up pheonix tears, they make hempoil, they put the plant in a bucket and wash it with isopropal alchohol
then cook it in a rice cooker to burn off alcholol,then are left with hempoil.

lol.. something like that yes.

It's actually quite simple to make.

All you need to make ISO hash is the following:

1. Razor blade (preferably a new one or at least a sharp one)
2. ISO Alcohol (you need 91% or better to get quality oil/hash)
3. Some type of bottle that has a lid and doesn't have any leaks (I personally use an old medicine bottle)
4. Coffee filters
5. Ceramic dinner plate or a pyrex pan (I prefer to use a ceramic dinner plate because its much easier to get around the edges with the razor)

That's all you need to make it.

I've also included a simple diagram/chart (with pics) that shows how simple it is to make ISO hash/oil. Some of you may have seen it before and some of you may have never seen it before.. either way.. it makes understanding how to make ISO Hash/Oil as simple as it can be. Chart is located below. Enjoy! ...and your welcome. ;)

very nice, I think you would get more trichs if you filtered with cheesecloth,coffee filters are gonna keep alot of trichs out of your soup.
I also read that you can wash the leaf twice,but anymore then that is just a waste.
and they use a rice cooker on low to burn off the alcohol, makes it faster and rice cookers are cheap.
