Worms? i have never had anything like that myself, and i am not too sure of a solution, i mean the worms are already in there and have already used your buds as their toilet, i personally would not smoke it, but if it's all you got you gotta do what you gotta do.

Maybe aphid larvae, they are green. The plant must have been infested. I personally would through that away. Ew. :mrgreen::peace:

Try making some IsoHash with it, since you use rubbing alchohol it would kill any nasty germs/bugs.

Get some 70% isopropyl alchohol at wal-mart or where ever

Get a mason jar and put your bud in it(after you have ground it up), pour just enough alchohol to cover it, shake it hard as you can for 30 seconds (No more no less) then let it sit for 30 seconds(Again, no more no less).

I say no more no less because if you let it sit too long it absorbes too much chlorophyll making your hash harsh and green, no less because it won't get as much of the THC.

Now strain the bud out and pour your alchohol/thc mix onto a smooth ceramic plate and set it infront of a fan, wait until ALL the alchohol has evaporated and use a razor to scrape it up, load some of this stuff ontop of a bowl for a nice kick.

You can either throw away the left over bud or do a second wash with it, it won't be as strong as the first wash and you won't get as much, but this is the best way to get a good ammount of decent hash from a little bit of bud.

water cure or make hash
would water cure make those critters die or not come oout anymore..cause it would be a shame not to smoke it..
and do you know the best way to water cure..i've hear just pretty much stick it in water and change it everyday..
any bettr method

water cure should kill and float the little bodies out. heard same on approach
i think imma do that tonight...or right now..
do you think that since i air dried them 3 days, and then water cure them for approx 7..any bad effects..maybe only water cure them 4??
what do you think

go 7 days or till you see no more worms, whichever is longer
ok..so is did a second manicure..and well i killed a bunch of those bastards..
i will now put them on a cooler filled wiht 4 times the water with enought ice...and i will be switching the water every day..for about 7 seven dyas..
ok..so when i finish water curing how will i dry them..i've read that it works with a hairdryer..or could i go back with air drying for about 3 days..i've read it should be smokable after 3 days??
correct me if im wrong

no ice no ice and no ice - yes, i;m baked - ice will make the trichomes brittle and more likely to fall off. ice is used when you make hash

Boy I'm glad you're not wasting all that...
Sitting here without weed and seeing someone talk about throwing all that away just cause some bugs were in it just about made me want to cry.
