@ElevateDsenses This works for sure, I do it once per week when I gather enough stems :).

Some of the soft smaller stems that are in big nugs are coated in crystals but they dont have a lot. I tried with a half O of stems and attempted to make tea (Soaked in heated milk for 3 hours) which gave very mild effects back when i first started smoking. So if you were to make a small amount of butter with them you might get something but it wont be much. I dont save them up anymore but if i did i would save till i had a ounce or two and make ISO hash with them.

Yeah, sometimes the stems can still contain trichromes, which are basically crystals full of thc. Stems are more commonly used for edibles/drinkables. You can make some Green Dragon with stems. Green dragon is liquour and weed. It's great.

There is a place in Montreal that uses the stem to make some kind of fiber. That's not what you were asking I know just a little info.

cuz ur supposed to pack the tube tight and with stems it would be extremely hard unless your grind em down to nearly a powder. Plus 10% yield with trim is a decent yield, the yield you would get with stems wouldn't ever come close to that, that is unless you just don't purge out ur butane:roll:. So in my opinion all ur doing is wasting butane. The Green Dragon thing is the best ideas IMHO, just remember that thc isn't activated until it reaches a certain temp, I think 212 degrees Fahrenheit, but don't quote me on that. So don't just toss stems in a bottle of alcohol and think over time the fats will absorb the thc and it will get u high; thc needs to be activated

lol you dont have to pack it, tea is gross, and butane isnt that expensive

and no do not grind them if you do decided to do this, just break them up with ur hands put in tube and blast

if you don't pack the tube tight u are leaving gaps of which the butane will just run through, therefore not making contact with all the material ur blasting, therefore not yielding as much as u shld be. Just cuz you started making BHO a month ago doesn't mean you know everything :wall:

ghetto stem kief- you can also get a pringles can, put in some marbles, cover the open end with panty hose, drill a bunch of holes in the lid, pu the lid on over the panty hose, put your stems in, and shake like a mother fucker over glass. any crystals left will be shaken off and fall to the glass. its a pain, not worth the trouble, but i guess if you were hard up for a buzz its better than nothing.
