I'm thinking about collecting the kief that falls through the screen of my grinder to press and smoke for sleep but i'll have second thoughts about this if it makes the bud a lot weaker.
well if you grind up the nug, roll it in a joint and smoke up the whole thing you shouldnt notice any difference than if you were to rip it up with your fingers. and all that kief is SUCH a nice little gift to yourself and makes the grinder worth the money.
