The zipper might be tricky, though.

and use them to pollinate future female plants? Sure, you can smoke the leaves, but if you want to get high, try something else.

Pollen are living cells that, once on the female part of a flower, grow to fertilize the ovaries to eventually produce seeds. Pollen cells lack any type of protective coat like seeds have, so theyre generally going to dry out quickly.

Personally, Id rather save my lungs for the finer things in life. Even Willie doesnt smoke dry herb very often anymore.
