When I'm sitting at my main stoning station I have a few jars to put my stash, abv, and stems in. First off, I de-stem my weed before I grind it up. After grinding, I will take out nearly all of the remaining stems that until then would probably be unnoticed. They are usually smaller size. I just sit at a surface and do it, with regs it could take me up to an hour to not even fully de-stem. I used to do this with fingers a lot until I started to use the wooden skewer that came with my vaporbros. I just lick the pointy side, and whatever stem I touch with it with a slight bit of pressure will stick, making de-stemming after grinding that much easier. After you collect all these stems and put them in jars, of course you can make hash / edibles out of them. Just shake up the jar, though, and then dump the stems out on a folded piece of paper. Shake them and tap the paper, letting the smaller pieces (actually weed) fall to the bottom. Then, use the lid of the stem bottle (medicine pill jar/bottle) to sift the stems away from the actual weed, which, with enough stems is anywhere from a half of a nick, to a dimes worth of weed. (.1 to .5 grams about) Sifting through and fully de-stemming your weed is therapeutic, relaxing, and worth it.
i know exactly what u mean and i love getting keif from my stems after that too to top off a sweet bowl
Like you I have a similar method, I have a large jar of my main stash for the month, a smaller mason jar for the weeks stash, a medicine jar for the daily broken up medicine, A mason jar for my stems/leafy/shake bits which I remove as I prepare my bud, I also have a mason jar for my ABV, I usually am picky when it comes to trim jobs so any little leafy bits or stems poking out of a bud I will just pull off and stick in the jar, same goes with any shake or loose little bud pieces, all goes in the shake jar. When it's full I make QWISO hash out of it, really good stuff. Same with all of the already vaped bud, it goes to QWISO hash once I fill the jar. Waste nothing! I also do agree on the point that it is therapeutic at times, I really like cleaning up buds and making them look nice.
