I'm not too sure what forum this belongs in...but it seems to be a growroom set up question. What do you guys do with all the leaves, branches, etc. after you harvest?
I know throwing them away is a bad idea.
I'm thinking of making a compost heap in my backyard or possibly making some stealth runs to my local park to toss that stuff out.
Any suggestions?
Well, I use the trimmings to make a little hash.
But any growth before harvest is usually composted, anything after is chopped up, frozen, and sifted -- like the video in the link below.

good trimmings i make hash with, fan leaves and stems i burn in my bak yard
Make em all into cuttings and grow a 10km² forest somewhere outside?
Heck, I smoke everything but the stems :)
I take it all and am planning on making a big batch of oil. :D
(a big batch being half a capful - a capful)
Well, there's a large dumpster used by our whole building, so I don't worry about small amounts buried in heaps of trash. However, you could start a worm farm and feed it to them - then use the worm castings to feed your new plants :D
Just make some hash...sometimes u get good polen hash out of a couple grams trimmings....and if by any chance u run out of pot u have ur hash just waittin..
When you throw them out, have a DEDICATED trash can/bag JUST for trimmings... ie: HIGHLY ILLEGAL STUFF.
A 8-inch diameter leaf, only came from one place... and cops know it did NOT come from a dime bag.
So anyways, when your trash bag is full, or you're done with it... get in your car... and go throw it out somewhere.... away from your home.
Carefull with places that have cameras... if somebody finds the bag, they could "backtrack" the video tape until the see who dropped it there (problem if you're in a car).
That's what I do... :)
I just read where a guy in my town got busted when the garbage man found child porn in his trash..and that's ok because he deserved it BUT if they found that in his trash, then I would be scared to put any thing related to weed in it..
you must remember in the U.S. when its on the curb its public property. Odds are your finger prints are all over it. :pimp:
I would wait till the trash truck was about a block away from the house.
One time I dumped some thunderfuck in the bags, the truck makes a round trip on my block, As it went by WOW what a smell. 3 bags of kickass leafs if the truck would have caught fire, it would have floated most of the time cause it was so high. :dance: :dance: :dance:
Extreem caution must be used when getting rid of that much leaf. One baggie does not produce 3 bags packed tight, of leafs:thumbsup: .
Remember most pot growers are busted by stupid mistakes, I was :confused: :confused: . Now its medical and in Calif. you can have all you prescribed by a Dr. :dance:
A cool trick with some saved leafs , grind them up and place all around the house. Just enough for the dog to find it, after about a hour of false alarms by the dog they give up.
Use a fine paint brush to :thumbsup: dust it in corners of desk/s, strorage, or any place that does not get disturbed. :thumbsup:
The reason Cops like pot bust its simple and easy, do not get dumb, dumber, watch your self in every aspect of growing. :stoned:
Note with hydro do not put on your plants, magic things happen ,,,huge flowers, fruit , go extreem. 4-5 in. lemons, 3-4 in. plums, 6 in. roses, 7 ft glads.
I'm not sure what the hell oldsanclem just said, so perhaps I can muddle through and reiterate his key points:
When gathering your trimmings, place them in a bag that contains nothing other than your trimmings.
When trash day comes, put your bag of trimmings in the trash can right before the trash man gets there. This eliminates the possibility of the cops doing a "trash pull", which they can do without a warrant.
If you cannot do this, then here are a few more options:
-Compost it
-take a handful of the stems and break them into small pieces. Then, go to a public trash can which is not covered by surveillance camers and dump it in there. Don't use the same trash can twice in between trash pickups.
-Put them in a blender and make a *very* fine powder out of them and flush them down the toilet. Make sure they are chopped very fine unless your plumber is "cool".
-Eat them (ewww)
-Smoke them (again, ewww!)
Good luck!
My friends took there's and put them into a couple rubbermaid's and then threw them into a lake. A river Im guessing would be fine too aslong as no one sees you throw them in.
Trivium - Wouldn't it make more sense to throw the trimmings instead of the rubbermaids into the river? I watched this special on tupperware where they put oreos into it and sent it down a river - weeks later they got them miles and miles away and the oreos were as fresh as could be.
I'd rather let nature decompose my skeletons in my closet. :D
Garbage disposal of leaves in the sink. Everything else bag and never leave it on your property.
garbage disposal works good if you dont have one use the blender ideaQuote:

not to mention spending money on rubbermaids
LOL, I could see them taking the "preserved" evidence in the rubbermaid to your front door.
At least if you grind up leaves and trash them in the river, within a mile or so it would be impossible to identify anything.
I think throwing trash into any river (especially rubber) is a bad idea. Its pretty simple. Keep the one bag and toss it into any dumpster that is not urs even another person...if the cops find it then they shouldnt get busted cause they dont grow and that pisses off innocents that will bitch and maybe give us more chance to get it legalized.....two birds with one stone
Baha baha, black sheep,three bags full (nursery story)
40 gal. bags x 3 x 4qarts = 480 blenders, full of trimmings , now how many flushes would that be.
Up/down a river with finger prints, two crimes for the price of one.

Get high and order pizza, go to quicke mart, tell your girlfriend.
interpet this please
Just smoke the freaking leaves in your pipe, flush or throw away the stems. Flush your ashes. End of story.
BE PARANOID. It could save your butt.
Stuff that is not worthy of making hash is just trash. If you do your own yard work toss it out with that by the time they dump the truck it's mixed with half the city so no way it can come back to you.
If you don't then toss it out in a dumpster somewhere on a drive by.
A compost heap is fine but still evidence until it's broken down all the way and in some cases can give off some odor.
You can
Bag em and throw them in a dumpster that isnt near your location
OR
I usually dry them out till they crumble up and then flush them
I store them in paper bags and burn them when I burn brush twice a year. Into the burn bags go trimmings, root balls, males, diseased plants, and used peat pellets.
Used dirt with roots removed goes into the vegetable garden.
WTF is up with your avatar, hazardous T? Seriously man.
hell im glad you made this thread, im usaully pretty catsious but just threw 2 males away the other day, double bagged but was worried about that, figured by the time they got em, in the double bag wit no air or light the plant should be crusty and it didnt smell... ill know what to do with the scraps or any other males, take em out to a farm and let em burn baby burn!:dance:
before i found bubble bags i saved up the trim, roots and branches and took em out on a campout to be burned in the fire. awesome sight too seeing a little valley fill with bluish smoke 1st thing in the morning...not to mention the aroma! you just have to be very careful hauling it (just having it too!) as the law makes no distinction between trim and bud.
