Questions about trimming for butter

I have four plants currently drying. When I trim them, I would like to try my hand at making butter. With that said, I have a couple questions:

2 of my plants will be ready to trim this weekend and 2 will be ready next weekend and I want to combine the trimming from all of them, what can I store my trim in until they are all trimmed?

I left the fan leaves on during drying to have it dry slow, do I include the fan leaves in my trim?

We use fan leaves to go in smoothies. Leaves have all sorts of useful stuff in them. They have helped my wife’s arthritis.
All the other stuff, we freeze till ready to use it.
Good luck! :+1:t2::v::sunglasses:

How you feel about that when using heavy salts? Been wondering about this swing y’all talk about. Someone around here put into there salad too😉

Yeah that’s what I was figuring. I’ll just keep composting and having it return to me that way😍

I assume regardless of which method I use to make the butter I need to decarb the flower first?

Definitely

You can decarb the oil afterward but usually easier to decarb before infusing. Remember; sugar leaves have about 1/5 of the THC flower does so dose accordingly.
