How to dry trimmed leaves? HELP!

Wisegrow · May 15, 2009

Hey guys im harvesting my first two clones tommarow and wanted to make some brownies with the trimmings. How long would it take for the trimmings to dry out or can I blend them and just start cooking it in butter? Any advice will be well appreciated. THanks

I think you'll get less "green" in your butter if you dry it first but if it's going into something strongly flavored like brownies it shouldn't matter.
I like buttering my popcorn with weak canna butter.

Well im straining the plant matter from the butter a strainer after I double boiler it, you think it matters if the leaves are dry or can I just cut the laves up nicley (or even blend it)...the tricomes are the key ingredient so it wouldnt seem like you would need to grind the leaves into a fine dry powder? I dunno any more insight on this?

you're right just chuck 'em in a crock pot fill with water and add a pound of butter and simmer a few hours.

But do they need to be dried first?
And how do you dry the leaves? Will they dry in a jar, or do they need to be spread out?
