Stems Only

[aubud]

So, I have been saving up my stems for a while now and keeping them in the freezer and I have amassed a bit of a collection. I've got 13.2 grams of stems gathered during the last couple of months and I was wondering what would you guys do with it?

I was originally going to make a "green dragon" with one of those 1.75L bottles of Grey Goose, but I'm feeling a bit restless and want to use them for something! So what it really boils down to is should I try to make edibles or a hash oil/tincure?

Anyone have experience using only stems? I'm not sure if I even have enough to do anything because I know THC content is vastly lower on the stems then it is in the actual flowering part of the plant.

Thanks guys!

So right now im thinking if i make edibles its going to be this recipe for lemon bars off the Martha Stewart website :
Ingredients

2 lemons, washed and dried
2 cups plus 3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 1/4 sticks cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 cups all-purpose flour
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
Confectioners' sugar, for sifting
Directions

Slice lemons as thinly as possible; remove seeds. Toss slices with 2 cups sugar; transfer mixture to a flat resealable plastic container. Place in the refrigerator overnight.

Place butter, salt, remaining 3/4 cup sugar, and flour in the bowl of a food processor. Process until mixture is crumbly and starts to hold together.

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Line a 12-by-17-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Press dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the pan, making sure there are no holes. There should be at least 1/2-inch crust of dough going up the sides of the pan. Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 15 minutes

Place lemon-sugar mixture and eggs in the bowl of a food processor. Process until lemon rinds are in 1/4- to 1/2-inch pieces, 30 to 40 seconds. Pour mixture over cookie crust. Bake until set, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool on a wire rack. Trim 1/2 inch around edges of pan. Cut into about sixty 1 1/4-by-2-inch pieces. Sift confectioners' sugar over cookies.


I'm probably going to add about 3-4g of buds to my 13g of stems for a total of 16-17g material. Think thats enough??

I use about a quarter or half ounce in buds, for oil, i perfer cana oil to butter imho. (for things like cookies, and brownies i find it comes out more moist, because youre using real butter.)
Try it out depening on the type of weed you have ect.
