I notice that most people (when they load bowls) rip the stems off and usually just throw it or eat it. I usually just load bowls with the stems. Does is really matter?
The stem might give ya a bit of a headache. Thats what I noticed at least. I just save my stems and eventually will make some hash oil with them.
I take them out because theres really not enough of anything in them to get you high in the amounts they are smoked in and in my opinion they taste like ass. i prefer to just taste some nice bud and leave out the burning wood.
Most people don't like to smoke stems if they have a larger quantity of bud. Stems are nice though if you are dry. Most of the people I know smoke with stems in. I don't mind smoking stems, but I get pissed if I end up smoking a seed because somebody was too high to pick it out.
Every part of the plant contains at least some traces of THC except for the seed. Stems can give you headaches, but they can also give you a bit of a buzz. It all depends on how desperate you are.
smoking seeds gives you headaches, not stems, or at least never for me. if your loading a bowl it doesnt matter if theirs stems but if your rolling then they can rip your paper
