Im gonna try and make some hash oil using the 99.9% isoprophil alcohol method.
i have about 3 grams of stems from various haze plants. can i grind the stems along with the leaves, etc.?

I'm sure there are several ways to do it, but yes, the stems contain THC, and will get you pretty high if you make hash oil or cannabutter with them... when I made hash oil, i filled a ziplock with the stems (didn't grind them, but you prob could, although it will probably make it harder to strain), and then covered the stems in everclear, and let them sit overnight... at least one night, but more is better... up to 4 or 5 nights if you want... and then I dumped the now greenish brown alcohol into a sauce pan, straining out all the stems, and simmered it on a low heat, reducing the alcohol until you get to a thick oily mixture (be very careful doing this on a stove top, because the alcohol is quite flammable)... what remains is a thick sticky oily goo... this is hash oil... if you would like, you could keep reducing until your hash oil is a little more solid (like something you could roll into a ball)... this will be quite sticky, however, and kind of hard to get out of the pan... but that would be considered hash, i think....
hope this helps... have a blast, man

Rubbing alcohol is isopropyl, so yes.

So when I strain the stems out of the alcohol how high does the burner have to be on?

Can I burn the thc in any way?
