Please don't post anything until I say "I'm done", thank you.
If anyone is interested in making some root tea/"coffee", I just thought I'd make a simple guide. This is my first thread so hope this is the right section.
I recommend only using organically grown cannabis roots.
OK first, dig up the main tap root and secondary roots around 6-10 inches around the stalk, depending on plant size. A small hand shovel or large knife really help with this.
Release as much dirt as you can, then bring it to sink to rinse off and scrub the rest, a small brush really helps.
Next step is to cut off all secondary roots and put them in a strainer, a sharp knife or strong pair of kitchen shears work well for this. Once your done that, its time to separate the root from the stalk. BE CAREFUL!! If you have a chop saw, use that, a bow saw, hand saw, or hack saw can work too. When you're done that it will look something like this.
Put the stalk to the side if you want to use it for anything. I like to keep it sometimes and make something with it, carve keychains and stuff. It's pretty much like fine grained wood when it's dry.
Next, chop up the tap root like this.
Like this.
And finally like this.
Now would be a good time to pull the bark off the stalk,
if you plan on using it, or you could leave it on for a more rustic look. I really think that would be cool to grow a tiny plant and use the leftover "skeleton" to make a unique ring/necklace hanger as gift. If the stalks are big enough you could even use them as scales for a nice custom knife grip. Whatever you can think of.
Once you have all your roots chopped and in the colander, give em a good rinse and leave them to dry for a bit.
Then, make sure your ovens empty, preheat it to 350, put the roots on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper like this.

All I can say is I am privileged to see this man. I will forever hold you in high esteem. You are a gentleman of the highest caliber.
