Instead of throwing away the stalk in the buds I smoke, I save them in a :baggy: and make Skunk Stalk Tea.

Ingredients

2 to 3 grams of skunk weed stalks (from inside the buds). I only do this with weed that I know has been grown "cleanly."

Method

1. Pour boiling water into the cup you intend to drink the tea from (this means you have just the right amount of water to make your drink and don't waste any).
2. Put your skunk stalks in a small pan.
3. Pour the boiling water over the stalks and simmer for 3-5 mins while stirring and agitating the stalks with a spoon (The water should get a very subtle green tinge to it).
4. Bring the water to the boil.
5. Put a tea bag in your cup and using a tea strainer to remove the stalks, pour the boiled water into the cup.
6. Make your tea as normal.

I make this all the time, especially if I feel a cold coming on, as it seems to really help. It isn't amazingly strong, but it works and tastes really pleasant imo.
