Ive tried washing the leaves in alchohol to extract...yumyum.But can the same thing be done with the stem?,ie mulch it and soak in alchohol?Any harmfull stuff i should know about would be much appreciated.
In some circles soaking stems in vodka or other drinkable alcohol is known as green dragon. And one can allow this concoction to evap to a thick tincure also.
just get a pint jar (or however big of a jar you need depending on how many stems you have), fill it to the brim with stems, and get some everclear, fill it to the top and close it. let it sit for a month or two and shake it every once in a while... or atleast thats how i've seen it done.
The trick is finding ever clear, California doesn't allow it's sale, unless one has access to a military BX.
