Does anyone that just grows a small few autos do anything with the trimmings? Is it worth keeping for anything? I've just been manicured buds a lnd binning the rest.

Definitely! I like to make cannabutter with them. And then use that to make cookies. Those things make me fall asleep like a baby

Does the green taste go away over time?

Yes. We put it in a baggy (for short term) or jar (for longer term storage), it tends to go through a 'hay smell' period, and it can easily over dry. If you have Boveda packs, they help. But it will cure if stored well.
It's not oregano

I'm another 2 auto plants at a time grower, and I keep the trimmings. Anything other than a solid nug gets cut into small bits and goes in the trim jars, even the stems. My wife vapes, so I keep the old 'used' vape as well.
When I have half a kilner jar full of vaped weed I fill it with water and leave it overnight. Put a mesh or sieve over the jar opening and drain the water out - it is shitty smelling and brown. Refill the jar with water and repeat until the water is clear. That way you have got rid of the bad taste and brown colour and still get the good stuff that vaping left behind.
Put the now better smelling vaped stuff in a pan along with all the dried trimmings and make canna butter (I use coconut oil not butter) then get baking cookies, brownies, fudge, whatever you want. Get high as fuck with something most people bin. Result.
(*edit - I decarb the dried trimmings before making the cannabutter, the already vaped stuff doesn’t need decarbing)

I myself grow 2 autos at the time. And if I have worth amount of trim I make cannabutter. If there is little trim left I just smoke it with buds.

Thanks for the advice everyone. I was definitely being a bit hasty throwing it away lol.
