In the late 1960's and early 70's all pot that came into this country was leaf, seed and flowers. If you bought by the brick you would have to clean up your product, higher grade for like $20.00 for a lid. Vietnam introduced some tripping weed ever so strong that once back home the rest was junk. I can grow what ever I want yet I still prefer to add some leaf to the joint so it burns equal and, pace it along without getting too ripped:)

You could use them to make canibutter but your best bet is to save em and make hash from them. Look on youtube on how to make hash, plenty of good tutorials on there.

Im guessing you dont really have enough to make cannibutter and dont want to wait over night after you labored many hours to prepare it. Smoke it, I smoked my tops when they were vegging and after half of a joint i was really stoned and listening to the sounds of nature as i was feeling the high.

it depends alot on the type of marijuana..

pure sativas, as far as i can see, have totally smokable leaves. with even a pleasant taste, you just need more bowls to get high,though the high is not as intense as the flowers.

even the fanleaves are smokable.


in other types of mj, well, as far as i can see, indica leaves are totally unsmokable unless its the sugarcoated leaves and even those will be harsh. fanleaves might give ya a headache. smaller leaves without sugar, might get ya high, but are Really harsh tasting (unless months old cured..and even then, not that good)

might be mostly because of the higher content of chlorophyll (green)

hybrids containing more sativa are usually more smokable, though i havent found one yet with fanleaves that were smokable.

now when i say, smokable, i mean they get ya high, though to less extent than buds (sometimes much less)

but the only way you can know if they are smokable, is by smoking them ;)

(you never know, might have 5 strains and all unsmokable leaves except one of them)

Back in the seventies that's all we smoked there were no autoflowering strais that would bloom and finish outdoors. Got us plenty high.

"The US Rocks !....... ummm except for the South"


I wonder if he would have said that about the South if in the 70's he had to smoke leaves from immature cannabis plants like you had to do, while I, a Johnny Reb, a Southerner, smoked mature buds, even from long flowering strains?

It must be a real bitch living somewhere that only has two seasons, Winter and July.

..actually many times ive smoked leaves (times i couldnt grow enough for whatever reason)

and sometimes, its enough to take the "edge" off and sometimes ive found my self surprisingly pleasantly stoned after only a few tokes.

indica leaves do fuck up your throat and lungs more though.. (but only longterm)

its fucking fantastic having a real tropical or near to it sun, but i kinda object to only having the state´s of "hot" and "hotter" (sweaty and pouring)

lol

funny also, that people are still fighting over 200 year old shit..

When it comes to outside growing, it works for me, though just for the 'living' part I would not mind a change of pace after so many years.

yeah, i could do with some more sun around these parts and id be more tired of the cold if id spent a few more mornings scraping ice off my cars windows :)

but its just easier to breathe in colder more arid air.

would love the growing down there though.. (sorta thinking of moving to vietnam, the wife sometimes yearns for it too)

Anything with trichs on it should get you at least a little high. I was referring to the big fan leaves.

:peace:
you can smoke any leaf without observable trichs of certain strains and they can be really potent.
those plants are useful in case u want to avoid the smell the flowering plant makes. u can keep the plant in the vegetation phase all the time and have only leaves to smoke..

You can put a plastic bag over your head and breath in and out real fast to get the same buzz.

Anything with trichomes can be smoked. I used to buy trim from my mate when he harvested. I'd kief it. Then hot press it in the pollen compress.
