These are beautiful plants. I recently came upon an interesting article about the potential benefits of the leaves, which are usually discarded.
Scientists have uncovered a surprising new layer of complexity in Cannabis, identifying dozens of previously unknown compounds—including the first-ever evidence of rare molecules called flavoalkaloids in its leaves. These compounds, prized for their potential health benefits, were hidden among a rich mix of plant chemicals that vary dramatically even between just a few strains.

Thank you, @topcomment and @friendlymoose!
I heard something about that, heart benefits if I am not mistaken. I do not throw them away. I add them to my tea and always have (well since I got these plants.)
That's a great idea, and the science behind it is beginning to support it.
