i love some good brownies :D
I think I'll use about 2 sticks of butter, mix with water (helps to keep the trimmings from burning since they'll be a lot compared to the amount of butter... less butter=more potent) add trimmings, simmer for a few hours, filter out the plant matter then let sit over night and pour out the liquid... from there the possibilities are endless!

I did the same thing a few years back with 7-14 g's of regs and a small scoop of kief and make rice krispies treats. 1-2 was a good chill high, any more and you started to get dysfunctionally-high

on a side note, the chopped male plant smells DELICIOUS. nice sweet aroma... can't wait to smell the buds that come from the female(s) :D

Welcome to RIU and glad to have you along scarletnole. p.s. that's my favorite wilfred quote :P

edit: bittersweet day... bitter because i found out i have another male... sweet because that means i can double my batch of butter (it was the big boy that was male... go figure) and I also have some much needed room in teh cab with just one plant in there... this also means i can start a, wait for it, 12/12 from seed grow ^_^ with the 2 other bagseeds i have.

Quick question for anyone who knows (+rep.... ;)) should i use just the leaves of the male plants or the leaves and stems? I read somewhere the leaves have much more thc and that in order to get anything out of the stems you have to chop them up real fine and well... my stems are pretty thick haha. Also, do i need to wait for it dry up a bit?

I dont think i could give you any anyway troutie haha. I'd probably have to "spread" it around.

edit just checked, it's true... i need to spread it.

And while I wait for them to dry before I begin baking, i'll post pics of the big boy on the chopping block-

The final shot of life:

The dreaded balls:

And then there was a stump:

A shot of the branching:

And a stem comparison (that's the bottom of a BIC lighter):

And the sweet part of this... more room for the GIRL! Gonna drop in a new fixture in the center and use the old ones as side lighting :D (2 bulbs on each side, and 4 above)

I just realized i can put fans blowing up at the plant now... god I love having extra space. Gonna get another 40 or 55 w soft white bulb soon, just took out 2 daylight bulbs as they werent really close to the plant at all and just (IMO) were causing heat. Ima spoil this bitch now that she's my only child!

The stems aren't worth the effort to try and extract thc from, very little thc and you'll just get more plant matter to mess with. i was planning to make cannabutter with my trimmings :) great minds... etc... I've never eaten it thou so it should be an interesting experiment. let me know how your butter turns out. My wife has never eaten it either i've been trying to convince her to eat or vape since its better for you but she's an old school smoker. still has a cigarette or 3 a day too but its her thing. Growing is mine! :)

Hell yeah man she's gonna love that space, looks like Your gonna have to do some serious lst as to not run out of (vertical) space though. I'm sure you were planning on that anyways haha. Good luck hope everything continues to go well for you!!

Definitely plan on it, have 4-5 branches tied to the sides, adjusting them daily. My lights can still be raised a few more inches and I did a lil rearranging so they are more surrounding, less on top now. Need to drill a hole in the center to drop a fixture right on top.

Also, I ended up just chopping up everything, throwing it in a blender with a few cups of water then let it all simmer for a few hours. It's starting to solidify now but I'm not gonna actually "bake" anything until tomorrow. The way my method works it's just more work filtering out all the extra plant matter... any extra bit of thc is a plus, just gotta do a lil more work. overall i used a pound of butter so i can make a few different recipes, just in time for danksgiving.
