Trimmings and Stems

Can I use my dried out orange trimmings to make canna butter> also what can i do with all these stems, i tried stem vodka and stem teas but want to try something else any ideas

Well, let me see..........If you have both kinds of leaves mixed, TRIM leaves adn FAN leaves, you;'d do better to make OIL. All you will need is some 100 or 90 proof isophyl alcohol.
Are they already dried? They need to be dried.

And you will need a PERMANENT COFFEE FILTER........ABOUT $3 AT WALMART.
HASH OIL is not really hash oil. It is the oil of the leaves. They just call it HASH OIL.

Very simply, keep your FAN or SHADE leaves. The leaves that do not have visible trichomes on them. Put them in open shoe boxes or card board boxes, in the dark, in a dark room, or under the bed. Let them dry for 7 days, stir them daily, to make sure they are dry and do not mold.
You fill half a blender full of the crumbled dried leaves.
You add half a bottle of alcohol, the highest strenght you can find.
BLEND them up. Add some move leaves and alcohol and blend them some more.
Get a NON-DISPOSABLE coffee filter, it is micro-fine, and strain them, keeping the liquid. That liquid is alcohol and oil, half assed mixed. Then you evaporate the alcohol out, takes a week, maybe 2 weeks, depending on how much alcohol you used. But be patient and let the alcohol evaporate, leaving a very sticky, THICK oil. It is almost like TAR. VERY GUMMY!

You sill need a small sealable bottle to store it in,.

It is MESSY, use a stainless steal bowl.

What youa re doing is mixing alcohol and oil, and then separateing it later.
Just like oil and vinegar salad dressing, they mix, but then they separate.
You sue evaporation to separate them, that is why you use alcohol. WATER will not work!
Get the proper pipe, I like a glass bowl, and put one half drop ont he end of a needle or pin, hold the flame under the bowl until the oil smokes and then hit it! Make sure you are near the sofa or a chair!




To make that hash oil, you got to have a metal fine mesh filter. A permanent non-disposable coffee filter works great. $3.00 at Walmart!

VERY IMPORTANT; IF you make the OIL, you have to let it evaporate for a week or two weeks. IF you smoke the alcohol, it will really mess your lungs up.

appreciate the help roseman!

Hey Roseman good post! And i have the same question about the stems

I cut my stem into 2" pieces, and put them in rubbing alcohol. Leave 'em sit for a week. Then, I will use it on sore muscles, my wife will give me a short back rub with the alcohol mixture and it goes numb for a while. Works great. I have a herniated disc in my neck, and the muscles are always sore. I tend to tighten up the muscles in response to any bumps or bounces, by the end of the day I can barely turn my head. It never fails to relive............

so get some strong rubbing alch, get dried leaves, blend them, and strain out the alch/oil into a container to store in? let evap for 2 weeks and then use it?

that sound out right?
