I do not mean to hijack OP please excuse me. What is the consensus on using the previously treated plant material for making cannabis butter? I say this only because of the fact of many people consuming it for holistic? medicine.

Can't say for sure but I doubt you would want to use the sprayed material for making extracts or butter the toxins may end up in your final product.

There isn't to my understanding. They sell much higher level amounts, much higher then what we use on Cannabis, for human medical consumption. My first attempt had drastically failed because I over looked an important factor to measure it's strength. I later learned what level is to be used. The one plant I originally experimented with had instantly shriveled up and died several days later.

True but you only live once, and if you were brave enough to look up how butter is made from such as the oil used, it would scare the hell out of you to hear what real goes into oil. It sure made me freak out. I don,t believe CS for Cannabis levels can do any more harm then drinking water from a public water fountain.

Plus, look at all the shiny sticky good stuff on the leaves. Why through that away....not me I,ll cook it all...........

Cut a small circle out of black construction paper, cut a slit, put on branch below bud. It will show if any pollen is falling.

Man, that's freaking brilliant.........! Thank you very much. going to do this right now. Was going to wash my dog, but she's going to have to wait.
I have already put a piece of light colored pink cardboard around the main stem of the plant, but of course makes much better sense to do what you said. Live and learn. Thanks again.
The concern that I have is that the sacks don't look like they are that swollen like the others in the past that I played with. Plus some of these on this one plant, seen to have opened or more like twisted up......weird.....?.......

No problem.

You then can take a small paint brush, like for water colors, to collect the pollen and paint it on the buds.

Paint brush idea I got from this site and works like a charm.
