This is my first year growing. ILGM Bruce Banner auto flowers plus 3 photoperiod clones that I bought at our local dispensary. I am late in terms of trimming off excess leaves in the photoperiod plants, which I grew outdoors. I just completed trimming and now have a bucket full of leaves. I hate to throw them out. Is there any practical use for them?
TIA

If plants are not in flower you can use leaves in a number of ways. They’re edible and go well in salads. I’ve also seen them breaded and fried. Once in flower there will be some THC present. Sugar leaves taken off at harvest can be ‘cooked’ in coconut oil and used in cooking.

I second this!
We use leaves chopped up in salad all the time!

Thank you for your kind help. I am a newbie. 
I am curious as to why you would add to salad or bread the leaves. Do you like the taste? Does it give you a buzz?
Tia.

The leaves have a lot of added vitamins believe it or not.
