just amazing man, jaw dropping! 
if you are looking for something to do with the trich-filled fan leaves, you can always make some canna butter! i did that with my trichy fan leaves my first grow and it worked (you'll need about 10 grams to make a stick of butter, which is about 6 doses, depending on how trichy they are).

ya know there were three things i did with this plant that i never did before:
1. I lollipop'd her.
2. I used beastie bloom and ginormous half way through her life.
3. I didn't top or fim her.
I think one and two were the key components! i was looking for a "little extra" from my plants. ha! i think i found it!!!!
Here is some bud porn!

Excellent bud, Stoney.This thread is always the highlight of my thursdays. I would definitely go with the cannabutter if you're considering it. I usually just throw all my trim and a decent amount of bud into my butter. Probably way more than the recommended amount, but my baked goods are a local favorite among my friends. People always get excited when I say I'm making brownies.

Hey Stoney, even more amazing with the second set of pics!
I use the butter and water method. Here's a link to my recipe, but use twice as much trim if it's fan leaves:

Thanks homer! I'm gonna check out that link. Is it true that you shouldn't smoke before eating the butter? and does it take a couple hours to feel the effects?
Thanks man, those last two were using the micro and homer HVMV technique. they turned out pretty good!
Thanks gumball!! i just thought of a problem.... how am I gonna jar this thing? I don't have a jar that big and i don't wanna cut it up yet. I'll figure something out.looks great Stoney, those are some sugary buds fo'sho
yes, those are the more important priorities! I hope the two of you had fun!!!
I have heard of people putting the slow cooker on high for an hour then low for an hour and then repeat. i wonder why they do this? and if there is a benifit.
That does make sense to me. I'm gonna try this sometime soon, so if anybody has anymore great tips like the ones above, i would really appreciate it. and also if anyone has any good bubble bag tricks on how to mix it or dry it better please let me know.
Thanks again for all the compliments guys!!!

hey bro, i think you can probably handle a pre-butter smoke
. but yes, it's true depending on your metabolism it takes between 45 minutes and 2 hours to "start" feeling the effects of eating cannabutter, and the effects can last anywhere between 2 and 4 hours depending on the strength. it's perfect for going to a concert or a movie, eat it before you take off (it won't affect you during transportation, and then BAM!) lol.basically i use about 5-6 grams of vaporizer left over to about 2/3 stick of butter. that makes 4-5 doses for myself. my link explains it in detail, but basically you boil water, butter, and the trim (as ground up as you can have it) on low heat for at least an hour, ideally 2 hours, keep adding water little by little so that the butter doesn't burn. then let it cool for a few minutes, pass it through a cheese cloth into a tupperware, pressing it with your hands/gloves, discard the solids, and store the tupperware overnight in the fridge. the next morning, the greenish butter separates and rises from the nasty water left-over, and you just pop out the butter and serve
and i *knew* there was something special about those two last pics

Pretty simple. They say you should use 1/4oz of bud or 1oz of trim per pound of butter, but I usually use as much as I can get my hands on in the smallest concentration (I used about 2oz of trim and popcorn buds for one quarter pound stick of butter last time). One pound of butter can make a lot of treats.
First chop the bud/trim in a coffee grinder or food processor. Just one or two pulses is perfect, you need it to be broken up but not into a fine powder or anything. If you have an herb grinder I would suggest that instead. Then melt the butter down in a pot full of water. Once it's all melted and bubbly but not brown I add in all my herbs. Simmer the herbs in the butter on a low heat for as long as you can stand it. At least 4 hours is my minimum, but the longer you cook it, the more THC gets in. 24 hours will get you some really good stuff
The water will evaporate as the butter simmers, so be sure to keep adding water as the level drops or you risk burning your butter and possibly vaporizing the THC. Once you can't take it anymore, take the pot off the heat. Get a tupperware container or something similar and pour the mixture through a fine mesh strainer (I use a metal tea strainer) into the container. I smash the bud mixture with a spoon to make sure ALL of the butter gets into the container. Every drop counts.
Once you've strained all the bud out you can throw the plant matter away. Take the container with your melted butter and put it in the fridge. After a few hours the butter will have turned back into its original solid form with one key difference: it's way better now. Once the butter is solid you can use a spatula or something similar to scoop the butter out of the container. Oil and water have a different viscosity, so the butter will probably just be floating on top of the water. Just scoop it out and pour the water down the drain. Or your neighbor's lawn if he's a dick.
Presto! You have a powerful THC delivery agent that appears to be rotten food. Use it as you would butter in any other recipe. I recently used my mom's recipe for chocolate chip zucchini muffins with no small amount of success. Remember, one stick of butter (8 tablespoons) is 1/4 of a pound. I use it in everything. I made brownies, cookies, toast. I even mixed it in with a bowl of macaroni & cheese (or as the canucks call it, Kraft Dinner) one time. The taste wasn't all that great, but about an hour later I could barely remember how old I was, let alone what I ate that day.
It's really that simple. When you do eat it, give the ingredients between 30 and 90 minutes depending on your metabolism. The first mistake people (read: me) make when trying their edibles out is thinking they fucked up the recipe and eating more.
