Hey all, so I will be harvesting my first crop soon and I don't want to sacrifice any of the bud for butter but I do want to try and make some. So my question is, can I use all of the plants trimmings (stalks, leaves...everything) for the cannabutter? Or should I only use leaves that have trichromes on them? I have a 60x-100x microscrope so I would be able to figure out where the trichromes are at, I just want to know what exactly I can use.

Also, how much trimmings should I use per 1 1/4 stick of butter? I've heard ~2 oz but just let me know either way.

Thanks for all the help guys, I want to cure my plants properly and don't think they will all make the 4/20 deadline, but the leaves can dry and be made within a few days so I'm loving this idea haha

Adding everything cant hurt, i once bad some great brownies out of stems and seeds. About 1oz per lb of butter(4 sticks)

seeds have no thc stems,trimmings and bud are the best to use dont use fan leaves they will just dirty up the butter..

Yeah i never said that they did, just said i got really high of stems and seeds. Sometimes you need to try thing instead of just going by what you hear.

i guess im talking to a wall
