ABSTRACT:
A method for individualizing a trichome from an epidermis of a non-seed portion of a trichome-bearing plant is provided. The method includes the step of contacting the trichome-bearing plant with a device such that the trichome is separated from the epidermis of the trichome-bearing plant. The device can be a mill device.
