I always like trimming some of the orange hairs off my buds. I think it makes them look way nicer. not all of them but some. like a hippy girl compared to a playboy girl. any one else do this or do you all just leave them. cause when i buy my bud from a dispensary it looks like they must do that cause every strain i grow is real hairy?

I hope you smoke those hairs!

The 'hairy-ness' is dependent on strain and grow conditions. But I think when the dispensaries get their weed, a lot of the hair will fall off and end up in the bottom of the bag. Instead of cutting them, take your harvest and put it into a large mesh strainer, shake your buds in there with a large piece of paper or something below to catch the hairs and trichomes, and roll it up! It'll be an experience you won't soon forget :stoned::stoned::stoned:

(BTW - I don't really recommend this as it will obviously lower the potency of your bud :wtf:)

thanks for the reply. I do keep the hairs and the trim and use it for bubble hash. (or will I just got the bags yesterday :))
I kind of thought that some of the hairs fall off by the time its sold at the dispensary. When i look at them with a scope I do see a lot of trichomes. I would never cut all of them off just some. I guess I will start leaving them and letting it happen naturally.
thanks again.
