SAVE YOUR STEMS!

[kingkobra40]

i've discovered a new procedure that has very good results.... i know it sounds just completely crazy but try it for your self.

forget shaking those stems for keif.... the keif also comes with 'sawdust' making it pretty harsh.... and there are still minute ammounts of thc left in the stems themselves....

last night i discovered you can extract honey oil from STEMS (assuming these stems came from mid-grade and above)

the method is the same for an ISO-BUTANE extraction but you need a tube-base no narrower then an inch, and atleast 6 inches long, as you have go to use alot of stems (it took me months to save up for this procedure, but the other alternative is ditching them, you can turn your waste into something VIABLE)

it's a well known fact stems contain thc, the problem is it contains very little..... look it up if you dno't believe me...


you need to grind the stems with a food processor until they are very fine.... as fine as you can get them, and then add as if you were adding bud to the base-tube, also pack this harder then you would fresh bud. use a hammer and the handle side of a screwdriver if you must.... i'm sure you can handle the rest

remember this is an ISO-BUTANE extraction.... do the rest of your own homework, but you only got about 20% to do.

and yes, the honey oil works just as well as the oil you'd get from the bud off those stems (hence, mid-grade or higher....)

Pics. Thanks

did you not read? it took me months to save up enough to actually do it with(dunno about you, but my bud doesn't have alot of stems in it)... if you wanna wait a couple more, sure i'll provide pics....

i only get a couple of ozs ever month

[anbesol]

Yes I Can Read.

I wanted to see the outcome if you had any left. Or how its done, you dont actually have to use it. Im interested. I Grow my own (mad stems haha) or get good buds,

[kingkobra40]

oh no i don't have any left :D it was far too good to stop smoking it.... LMAO

and it's the exact same as a honey oil extraction of normal bud, you can make your own or buy one (honey-bee extractor is the only name-brand i know of)

the key is getting the stems as close to powder as possible *doesn't matter how long you do it at one point they'll just ceases getting smaller, at that point it's fine* and then you pack it extremely tight into whatever extractor... it takes a bit longer for the butane to soak into the woody material of stems, then it does the flakey-leafy substance of bud, but it will do it just fine... from that point you do the procedure as normal

Erowid Cannabis Vault : Hash Honey Oil Technique (http://www.erowid.org/plants/cannabis/cannabis_info13.shtml)

that would suffice perfectly, but, i would give it just a signle drain hole on the end side (so a single hole on both sides) and follow the procedure as normally, then, after that, replace the drain side with 5 more equally spaced drain holes around the circumfrence, and run it again.

btw i apologize for my rudeness, i'm kinda high and couldn't have known you were curious how it all worked.

i must also note, huge hits seem to retain a harshness from the stems, but it's not there.. it's hard to describe... honey oil alone makes you cough your ass off.... you notice the honey oil cough more then anything tho.

my suggestion is to hit it lightly in a pipe... it is extra-potent stuff here...

You can also make bubble hash with the stems. Not on the scale of bubble made with buds and leaves but still will get you f'ed up.

Stem cannabutter... mm hmm.
There are many uses for stems. Save enough, and you can build yourself a tiny log cabin.

its cool bro, just make it up to me by posting a pic of this stuff the next time you make it ;-) take care!

will do.

[kingkobra40]

will do.

check back in an hour or two... i've got some enough stems to do a smaller scale test, in theory it should produce enough result for you to see...

but i really do reccomend doing this with ALOT of stems if you hope to get any significant...

Is it safe to grind stems down in a coffee grinder then use them to cook cannabutter? Is it unsafe to eat raw groundup stems (just incase i dont strain the fine powder with a cheesecloth). Thanks for the help!

i woulnd't reccomend it, but not for saftey reasons... i just don't think i'd enjoy eating ground up stems in a butter or whatever recipe... lol

but yes it's safe...

pics as promised...

uh.. you usually strain the butter... so no plant matter comes through

[kingkobra40]

the 'plant matter' is the stems ground up, i was showing how fine they need to be (the finer the better, but that will suffice just fine)

yeah I was thinking your stems would be thicker from the main kola... I can't b bothered to save little stems... my cleaning lady just cleans everything and throws the lil stems out

omg i'm an idiot.. lol you were talking to him.... (on the plant matter part)

i just scraped together some other stems i've been saving... the first time i did it, i did it with much larger stems... same results (if not better)

hmmmm...
butane? seems to hard for me
