Getting a hit from the burning of 52 plants must by better than going down to the local happy pizza shop.

Nah, a bunch of steam and smoke from some immature plants which haven't budded yet is not really going to do anything much at all.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

52 plants is nothing if you have not sexed them and only want females..
He could of been stuck pulling 50-60%.
This nonsense of getting high from burning immature plants never dried and cured just shows a naivety in cultivation.
Meanwhile yaba ice, ketamine and fentanyl fill the streets..
Poor bastard....

Picked three weeks ago - not touching it for another three.
It takes that long for some of the cannabiloids to become active - and needs curing for taste.
Will peak 2-3 months after harvest.
