jus put em in a cardboard box underneath where your plants are drying and shake the box once a day so they can dry evenly. Trimmings are easy to dry. i just let mine sit untill the wife wants to make some butter and she takes em for her. what are your plans with yours?

yeah that what i was thinkn,I was going to make some ice hash out of it,i made it before with a afghan kush autoflower,there was only enough for a joint from it because there was barley any leafs but it was just more of a test to see how it would turn out,so hash
would you only use the sugar leafs for the cana butter or what??

yea just the frosty stuff if there is a trich on there we want it lol. we jus use an oz per lb of unsalted butter and 3/4 cups of water and put it in the crockpot for about 4 hrs. then you just strain the leaves and leave the liquid and put it in the fridge till it gets hard

yeah yeah nice one,I think il try that when i take the rest of the girls down,But I always wondered when cooking with cana butter wouldn't the TCH just evaporative or what ever when the eatable is being cooked??

no not on a low heat think of the thc like vegetable oil it is fat soluble it get absorbed by the butter rather than released like if it was water soluble. i mean if you get it hot enough u can boil it out but when your making butter your just trying to just melt the butter so it can start blending with the thc so you have an even blend for the whole amount of butter you make.

after a certain temperature, yes. But like GreenGrower states if you keep it at a lower temperature then the THC just sticks to the fat in the butter, nothing a little bit of low-temp cooking can't help out
