Take a pinch off

Hey everyone. Don't really know if this goes under harvesting but I was wondering when is it okay to pull a small bud off your plant to smoke. I'm good with just letting it go but sometimes I run low and my mind wanders to my baby. Hit to tear it up but if I have to, will it get me high? The pistils are still white-milky but I can see the crystals on the leaves. Was just wondering. :neutral:

You can.. I did the same actually. Just finished smoking it this weekend! It took a couple days to dry out enough to bust.. it got me a little high but it just tastes/smells like plant matter.

but it did the job I guess lol

It works, for sure... and obviously it would be better when fully matured. But it's hard not to try her out early and I don't believe that you harm the plant by doing it.

If you take a bud down low close to the stem you're likely allowing the plant to direct more energy toward the bigger and main buds, which is something many people try to do.

So chop one off, don't worry. Bake it at 100-150 in the oven and you'll be smokin' in no time.

Thanks. Sorry for all the typos in that first post. Like I said, I'm still holding off on doing it and would love to not touch it until harvest, it had just been on my mind and I wanted to find out. I had a smaller plant that I harvested a few weeks ago but I never took anything off it before the harvest. Did put it in the oven and roll a skimpy blunt and get blowed as hell. Hehe, can't wait for this one, she's bigger.

Buying that end of flower cycle bag if you're going to need it should be part of your grow plan.

Your happy girl, working hard to finish the fruit, all of a sudden WACK!
Just a limb, no worries, keep doing what your doing. LoL
Seriously, buy a bag, leave the plant alone. Kill her with one fell swoop, don't torture her.

ive dont it to my plants several times. last nite i was so desperate for a smoke, i rolled a joint with a small bud id just picked off, so it was still wet, it burnt fine and got me pretty blazed.

leaves also work great, most people say that you cant smoke them, but i can get blazed from them if you roll a thick j.

For sure... anyone who tells you leaves don't get you high is wrong. Out of desperation I smoked down 2 full male plants waiting for this harvest.

3 nasty full bowls later :eyesmoke:..... it sucks but it works

i smoke everyday and i smoke leaves all the time when im desperate .... lol it IS sick, but it DOES get you high. not blazed but it quenches the thirst :mrgreen: ....people talk about this headache all the time but i never experienced it .....i usually only smoke like one leave .... but i imagine if you just sit around all day and smoke leaves you probably will get a headache

I'm not sure which thc covered leaves you refer to.
If you're talking about the trim leaves used to make hash, hash oil, butter, ect.
or if you're a lazy stoner, the ones you vaporize?
What sets leaf resin apart from bud resin?
