im only talkin about the leafs with trics in em...and they have buds on plants just not fully mature. im moving and the buds wont finish out on about 4 plants....those are the ones in question about using
In short, yes, you can do that. The plant has THC almost everywhere, though don't bother looking for it in roots. It's just a question of levels.
Butter isn't the greatest way to extract THC though, so the inefficiency as an extractor and the lower THC quantities in immature leaves/stems might make it difficult to get potent butter (though I have never had trouble with it myself). You might try a butane extraction or something similar. At least then you'd know what you got out of it
once you have oil, mixing it into butter and baking is easy.
When I harvest I save all the trimmings and stems, basically everything but the roots. I take all that, add in whatever males I pulled from that crop, dry it (I do this in an oven
), pulverize it (I use a mortar and pestle, but a blender works as well for everything but thick stems), and make oil. You can smoke the oil many different ways, or you can easily turn it into hash, edibles, or whatever. It's really versatile.

Be patient, grasshopper.
You need to wait for the bud if you want to get the high. While you might get a little buzz, that's not what you're looking for when you eat edibles.
Take some time to wait for the bud and you'll love the body high that you get.

whether you're in a time restraint or not, we answered the question you asked. you wont get nearly as high, if high at all from using the leaves and stems from a plant that has yet to finish budding it needs time to do its thing.

you could use the buds off an unfinished plant
but you wont get the full thc effect from it
just like cutting it down to early to harvest and smoke
you dont really get shit from it !!!
