Here's what you gotta do man, take those stems and either A.chop them up with a sharp knife, or B. use a coffe grinder. then boil some water, you can put the stem mulch in a tea bag or one of those wire ball things thats like a re-usable tea strainer, or just dump it all in the water(one cups usually good)then let it sit for 20 minutes, drink. relax.
