Back in the days a friend of mine’s did that and you really don’t taste anything but the heat 😂 to be honest if your looking to taste it . Might as well do it right . After your plant develop so more you can cut off a lower nug let dry for about 7-14 days put it in a jar to cure until you smell your nugs the. Enjoy 👌🏾 Happy smoking 💨 my friend ✌️🏾
