    Silly Newb Question ?

    OK, so I love to grow things.. in the past it's been specialized chili peppers (habs, bhuts, reapers, etc), so I thought Hey, Weed may be fun!! Definitely a process to it, and that's what drew me into it...

    Did my research here on GWE, have a pretty good set-up I think, and off we go on my first grow. One Blue Dream and two Blueberries started now.... all photos..

    I'm not really a smoker - you can count the times I've toked on one hand - so not a lot of experience there either.... All of that leads to my question.. Now that I'm about to top Marjorie (my BlueDream Baby) and start the manifold process... what do I do with the trimmings that I cut away from the plant? Toss them in the garbage? Place the leaves in a dehydrator and throw what comes out of it into a zigzag and smoke it? Not that there will be tons of trimmings, but it seems a shame to waste anything! What's normally the path for this?
    Thanks!

    Those leaves are trash. You could eat them fresh but they’re not smokable

      I defoliated yesterday, had burritos with chopped MJ leaves. You wont get much from smoking them, as for toppings cuttings clone them! Unless she is an auto, then it would be just for fun.

        Thank you... who doesn't love a good burrito?! Sounds like a "special" pasta salad may be on the menu this evening...

        Had thought about cloning, but I don't currently have the re-rooting gel/goo that you're supposed to place on the cut area... also, only have one grow tent, so thought I may have issues with timing where multiple plants are in different stages of growth when it's time to shift the originals to 12/12... Crud... now I have to talk She Who Must Not Be Named into a second grow system... heh....

          I'm in the same boat. I need a place to keep my seedlings while they start so the autos in the tent can finish up.
          I modified a large styrofoam cooler into a nursery with a heat pad and a top with a light hole and a AA powered fan. It works but that's it.
          The bride will want me to build a cabinet for another grow space as it will have to custom fit on top of the freezer due to space and she knows I can do it.
          I would prefer a 2x2x3 tent, it fits.

        I gave away over 40 clones to others, made over 60 from one trimming from one plant. I kept 1 and tossed what I could not give away, about 20. Its easy to make more than one needs, and hard to toss 'em.
        BTW I use aloe vera to clone with, cut fresh from my plant.
