The amount of trichomes on the sugar leaves is related to strain. Some strains don't produce a lot of trichomes even on buds, while others produce so many they spill onto all of the nearby leaves. There is a lot less potency in leaves compared to bud (which is full of THC and other cannabinoids all the way through).That means you need to smoke far more leaves than buds to get the same effects.
