doesnt sound like youve been reading as much as you should be. i noticed about 3 different things you did wrong, that you should not have done. first off, NEVER cut off a leaf that is not dead. the plant needs them to take in the energy from the sun. secondly, no, the big fan leaves do not contain enough of THC for you to make hash out of. and lastly, NEVER microwave your pot! even if your picking a tiny bud early to see if it gets you high, the actual Micro Waves are destroying the THC and other cannabanoids, and leaving you with a harsh, terrible tasting product.:wtf::wtf:
