Trichomes on leaves?

Hi, I am new at this and blond besides so I don't what I'm doing so here's my question.

I understand you are supposed to trim the buds and cut the leaves off, but I can see trichomes on my leaves. Do I have to throw those away? Or can I, you know, smoke them?

I don't really want to keep butter in my fridge, because of family issues.

Is it bad to smoke leaves? (I feel like I am asking the stupidest question in the world sorry)

Isn't making butter kind of stinky?

you can smoke them if you want ,but why when you can make hash so easily?
You can make hash with ice? I thought you had to use butane or alcohol or something, and heat it up in a still, and hope it didn't explode! I didn't know you could just use ice and evaporate it!

That is so awesome!!

Okay, I will try it. Thank you. :)

You can just roll them into joints, or dry them and screen out the trichomes and make hash powder (Kief) and then extract the resin from the leaves with alcohol etc. You don't have to heat the stuff it just evaporates of after faster.

i said compared to making butter...not everyone has the materials to make ice water hash also so that usually takes some kind of money..unless u kno a way to make hash for free with out buying any material then im all ears and eyes...

to make hash just put the plant material in an old cotton laundry bag or make a screen out of a shirt,then put all that in a bucket and then add ice and water ,mix it all real good then filter everything out(easily done if your using a cotton laundry bag)

then your left with green looking water lol.
let that water sit for a few hours up to a day and then siphon out the liquid and the hash is on the bottom.

good luck

you dont need a bubble bag or anything fancy ,i think a pillow case would do the job.

Use a shower curtain that you can see tiny holes when you hold it up to the light. Put that over a trash can with clean trash bag and put about 80% ice and 20% water then all the leaves you have from trimming. Mix that around with one of those hand-held mixer for about 10 mins then remove the curtain with the ice water and take a look at the bottom of the trash can on the trash bag and you have some wet hash. Dry that out and smoke it on your bud!
