Hi, My plants has been stressed with a little too much heat for a long time. However, they seem to do fine! My plant has been on 12/12 for 4 weeks. It does have alot of those pistils but it doesnt have that frost just yet. It will most likely come later this week. However, i shined a light on my plant right after the HPS went out, and oh my gosh. My fan leaves were sooo shiny. It looked as if they were really soaked in water. However, its not water, and im desperate for a smoke. Is it possibly to get high off micro curing one or two fanleaves? theyre very oily. I have so many small leaves under them and they just cover them. So i figured out it might be a win-win to cut one or two off. Im not talking about all leaves fingers, just one or two from one leaf. Get me? I got a big night and i have so much writing to do. Were talking about pretty easy writing! I just want to get a little bit high :) If this works i am going to microcure the leaves really fast! ;)

You can try if you want, but I doubt you'll get high from it, can understand your impatience but as I"'m sure you've heard it before, patients is the name of the game.

Well, the HPS went out and i had to use a flashlight when i was watering her. GOD DAMN, i just saw them fan leaves, they were so oily. I thought to myself, is that some of that good oil? Well, thanks for you reply. I might cut one or two fingers off a bit later. Btw, when microcuring my bud (in the microwave) wont there be any hotspots? when i warm food, they hotspots always form and my food gets really hot in certain places. Btw, is is better then to use a Bong or to rollitup? I just feel that my plant míght be sad at me. Honestly, i dont care about a week extra longer flower if i cut a few leaves off.. but does it hurt for the plant? does it feel the pain and so?

Microwaving your weed to fast dry it is not a good idea, it will taste bad and it will also destroy whatever resin is on the leaf, if there's any, I doubt it would harm the plant in any way, as long as you don't over do it.
 
If i was you bro, I would just wait, your so close to harvest why risk doing anything that could potentially hurt the plant all so you can maybe get a little buzz. Just grab an old bowl or pipe and scrape some rez haha. that will give you little kick.

Yes they feel the pain. All living things do. Every time you cut off a leaf a puppy dies. You can smoke the fan leaves, actually all of the plant. Some parts are better than others though. I've never tried smoking the roots but maybe you could brew a tea or something.

if I where in you shoes (been there a "few" times :D) I would just find a low Bud site, one that don't have a chance to grow in to much anyway do to lack of strong light and cut it (lollipop) won't ruin your yield, if anything it help the top Bud`s develop as the plant don't need to use/wast energy on lower Bud sites that don't receive any strong light anyway (don't cut too many tho)

30 minuts at 120c in the owen or over night at the radiator/on a lamp shad will quick dry it, will taste harsh and green but a bong head or two always make me pretty high even if it taste like **** and make me able to wait until the plants are ready for harvest

Hi guys, to answer yall. My plant has been curling its leaves up, i have tried to fix it and it has worked in moderation. However, i took 2 leaves that had alot of resin on them and that was almost completely curled up (worst ones). Out of the 5 fingers i cut 2 off veru carefully and they are now right over my radiator. I think im going to try to bong them up. I got a small bong so i will get about 10 hits from these leaves. Wouldnt it be possible to grind they leaves and smoke with tobacco? Theyre a little dry already but.. wouldnt that be possible?

Hey dude, wait.. thats so slick. Do you mean all of the fingers aswell as the branch? on a low budsite? I got a few more plants going, not this mature though. Haha, what i mean is. I can cut this one up a bit if i want, because my future is filled with weed anyways. However, thanks alot! Im just wondering, how big is a lollipop :P?

I usually mix mine with tobacco, about half and half, toast the tobacco first, a minute in the micro owen or in some tin foil over a light for a minute or so until it don't smell of nicotine

if your leaf`s are curling up you should address it, post some pictures, can be many things, high temperatures, wrong PH, to much nutrients aso




when is the earliest in flowering when you can do this? ^

I would say after week 3-4 depending on fast it is, but the earlier the more of a uplifting high and less of a stone effect you will get so to speak, but near the end like a week or two before harvest there is`t a big different (week 6-7)

Thanks! Just amazing! haha, still, how big is a lollipop`? When mixed with tobacco i wouldnt have to dry it.. right? I did post pictures but from what ive learned.. i have too high temperatures. this probably caused more THC to form in the fanleaves as they were protecting against the strong light. My plant has all that white hairs everywhere but it hasnt formed anything one would ever chop off in terms of bud. Then i read on a page that the Fanleaves contain alot of THC in this particular stage, thats why i believe it might work. Btw, the leaves are all oily as i said but... it is THC and stuff right? no other no-high oil is produced?

yes, many growers that use artificial light and/or use a scrog or SoG grow method do this right before or in early flowering, calling it lollipoping (look it up) idea is to remove all lower grow (maybe 1/3) that won't receive any strong light anyway and therefor won't give you other then small flimsy buds that is`t worth much (tho at this point they might ;)) it make the plant use all its energy at its top Bud`s them who are close to the light and have a chance to develop in to something

if I did plan on using this technic I would do it with in the stretch (first 2-3 weeks of 12/12) or just before 12/12 and make clones out of em, but you can still do it later in to flowering now that it is some early smoke your after, just don't over do it, a branch or two of the lowest shady once can easily be cut of near the main steam with out any real effect on the plant

I'm at about 2 weeks flower, this is prob too early for that? ^^
Dude, im no expert but many people claim it takes about 2 weeks before it shows its sex, especially for young plants as they tend to want to grow up first. Then they will start with alot of hairs, followed by frost and then you cut it. The thing is, if your leaves are all oily then it might work.

ALL ABOARD THE SMOKE TRAIN!!!! Man, you might just have saved my day. If your on later, i'll let you know if im high ;) Didnt know you could do this. Btw, i have no use for clones. 1. Its an unknown strain [most likely skunk] 2. I will only be growing outdoors after this grow (AF grow) So therefore, no regular strains or any weed at all will be kept indoors. Im simply getting ready for the summer. Got 3 girls though alltogether now so i dont need clones. would love to keep a mother in the future but thats not now. Graci !!! and oh, let me add one last thing. There is actually proof that by just rubbing the fanleaves and the plant with your hands you cant get high. They did it on a documentary, i think it was Greenhouseseeds strainhunters in Jamaica. They showed the GHS guys how they rubbed the plants, then they scrape off the resin and smoke it. It hit them sooo hard. However, this is not pure resin so cant compare. Anyways, thanks
