    Plant Waste Disposal

    I am wondering how you all deal with clippings and plant waste. I do trimming and defoliation and end up with a significant amount of plant waste. I typically save up some cardboard boxes and yard waste and burn it all together but I always fear the smell being pumped out. How do you all dispose of the plant material?

      If they are healthy, I feed them to my earthworms, if questionable, I usually burn. Not to worried about smell, since my fires usually contain much stronger smells. I do live in a legal state though. Well sealed trash bag is probably the safest.
      The young healthy leaves are great for juicing, and possibly do more from a medical perspective then bud or extracts, as far as CBD goes, also a superfood.
      There is a limit on how much I can make myself eat before I start feeling like Chong ,parked on the sidewalk though.....

        Chop them down while still fresh. Let dry and store for a rainy day. Lots of cannabinoids in those leafs. I regularly vape fan leaves with great results

          What ever I don't use for making hash. Goes in the composter.

            You know, the best use of leftovers I ever experienced, was a year or two ago, for my birthday. My dad gave me a pipe he made out of the base of a stalk, big AK plant.
            The thing filled your hand, definitely a party bowl! Bet a main lined plant would work great for that.....

                  For indoor grows at home I chop them up with garden shears and bury in the vegetable garden. If its an outdoor guerrilla grown plant I move it a couple hundred yards from grow spot, chop it up with a hoe, and work it into the leaf litter. I live in a Gestapo state and need to be pretty careful though.

                    I use the waste to make bubble hash. Stems and roots get thrown onto the garden.

                      I save all of the trimmings and small stems and make DIH out of them, bake it and cap it! Wonderful, "waste not, want not!"
                      Oh, The leftover leftovers, I spread in the back yard to decompose (return to the Mother earth, so to speak)
