MARIJUANA CONCENTRATES 101: WEED HASH CANADA

 

An Introduction to Hash

Hashish is one of the oldest cannabis concentrates known to man. It is made when trichomes / crystals / kief are removed from the buds and pressed together to make bricks of hash. It produces the same effects as regular cannabis flower, but in a more intense way having anywhere from 30-60% THC, making it 2 to 3 times as potent as the buds it was derived from. Even though this might seem like a lot, other cannabis concentrates tend to be more potent.  For this reason, hash is a great choice for those who want to dip their toes in the cannabis concentrate community.  

 

Effects of Hashish: 

• Benefits of Hash: The effects of smoking hash is very similar to that of smoking regular marijuna buds. If the hash was made from indica dominant strains, the effects are typically relaxation, euphoria, sedation and more body typed sensations. Sativa dominant strains typically lead to stimulating feelings of happiness in a more cerebral typed high. Hybrid strains that were used to make hash provide a nice balance of those aforementioned effects.  
• Medical Uses of Hash: Since it has been around for awhile, hash has been used by medical cannabis patients for decades. It is generally easy to make, and easy to get ahold of, making it a popular way to take THC medication.  The most common uses of hash are to treat symptoms of anxiety, depression and stress. Pain relief, hunger, insomnia and inflammation are other uses. 
• Negative Effects of Hash: Cottonmouth and dry/red eyes are very typical side effects of smoking hash. However, these are not very serious and oftentimes go unnoticed.  It is possible to experience episodes of dizziness, nausea and headaches if taken in excess. Therefore it is important you use hash responsibly and know your limit. 

 

Different Types of Hash

Hashish has been around the cannabis industry in Canada for a long time now, and during this time there have been many different types of hash that have been created.  Some of the most common include: Bubble Hash, Dry Ice Hash, Dry Sift Hash, Lebanese Hash, Royal Afghani Hash, and Rub. Each of these types of hash are made using different processes, but all results in the wonderful substance we know as hash. 

 

Best Ways to Take Hash

The most common way to take hash is by mixing a little bit with some marijuana flowers and smoking it in a joint. Other ways include smoking it in a bong or pipe or vaporizer. But one thing for sure is the best way to take hash is to take hash responsibly and in appropriate doses.  

 

Alternatives to Hash

 Although hash is very potent, it is not the most potent cannabis concentrate on the market.  Stronger products include budder, shatter, live resin, distillate, and oils.  Edibles are also an option for those who don’t want to smoke. 

If it is something less potent that is what you are looking for, then normal cannabis flower is the choice. There are thousands of different cannabis strains in Canada and they are all waiting for you to try each and every one!
