What up roll it up, I just harvested and i've got quite a few stems sitting around. All my bud is going straight to my lungs and the sugar leaves have got butter written all over them. I have heard about stem tea but it doesn't make sense unless you add butter or oil for the thc and cannaboids to attach to. What I'm thinking is a tincture with everclear but I have a few concerns

1. Would using stems only make the tincture potent enough or should I add some sugar leaves?

2. Should I cut the stems into 1/2 in pieces or grind them up in a blender?

the water, after boiling, is hot enough to release what you need into the water, just like tea. just use the stems. now i'm not saying only use like 2 stems...in my experience, even with extremely resinous bud/leaves and being really potent, you still need quite a good amount of stems.

my suggestion is to grind up the stems, or at least cut them into very small pieces...go get yourself a metal "teabag" to add your own tea and start from there. if it's not strong enough just keep the water hot enough to continually add the metal teabag/ball over and over with fresh stems into the same batch of water.
