hash or weed

Salutations everyone,

...there seem's to be some serious misconception of the difference between hashish and the flowers.

perhaps, someone could write up some definitions?

Here's a simple basic one: as far as i'm concerned, with hashish it didn't feel healthy (even safety-wise questionable) while i find dried flowers much safer potentially, especially if one could see his buds grow. I'd never want to smoke alledged "hashish" acquired from a stranger ever again, in any case!

On another hand, the smell of hashish is magic, but i still find dry flower vaporisation has quite some advantages of its own. It comes from an ex-smoker who could barely be satisfied by cannabis herb at the time (unless weed happened to be all that was available, since smoked joints were irritating)...

To me hashish was like a lightbulb to a moth while dry cannabis flowers feel slightly different, IMO. I guess i learned to appreciate the later spectrum of nuances, which doesn't mean i'd mind sampling some hashish which is "bio", who knows!... YouTube once illustrated a most impressive Dry Ice method and that was a memorable sight: visual poetry! Yet, the spectacle of a glistening bud is no less grandiose. One just needs to appreciate those different moments for himself, when/if suitable and/or possible: i find there's a significant distance between hashish smoking and dry cannabis flower vaporisation, but that's me.

Sorry if this doesn't shead light on the "misconceptions" of others, i can only comment best while writing a testimony from my own perspective. I'd say the future appears to be in concentrated oils for medicinal users and dry flowers for the recreative ones, if that's what this is about. High-CBD strains in healing applications, lots of THC for its unique properties...

=D

I'm a non smoker and just wandered what are the best ways to consume weed or hash other than to smoke it ? Sorry for slightly off topic.
 
Salutations OpiumOfTheWorld,

Sorry for slightly off topic.

Off-topic? It was tempting for me to point out there seems to be a cannabic trend presently gaining in popularity which doesn't involve hashish or dried cannabis, but yet i didn't and now i wonder if i should have...

=D
 
Salutations Tripnotyzm,

Weed. Hash is an effort.

Actually i was thinking about "dabbing", something about "flash vaporisation" if i'm not mistaking. Those who've got a tendency to go faint under the influence of a smoked joint should seriously consider flipping the page to another subject, hummm... I like Health Stones but i *HATE* torch lighters!

=D
 
I thought hashish was just the pollen of the plants that they sift through a bunch of sifters (w/e the word is) until its really condensed.

Like I saw this thing on Nat Geo you can take the pollen and smoke that straight before they press it into hash that would be my ideal substance.

and then this Moroccan guy with a bandana just beat the shit out of this like drum looking object to make all the pollen fall through the sifters

here's the vid

It's confusing because some of the slang names for separated trichomes not pressed together i.e. kief are pollen or similar words. But no, hash is not male cannabis pollen, it is the trichomes from the leaves and flowers of the female plant (and rarely the male) separated with water or dry sifted and then compressed until it bonds together to form a solid mass that becomes pliable with heat.
 
hand rolled is the best imo.

My view on bubble hash, oil, and flowers is this.

Say you have two empty cylinders of the same height, but one is twice as fat as the other. The fat one would represent flowers, and the skinny one bubble/errl. When you smoke, the cylinders fill up, represnting your high.
Basically you get just as high, if not "higher" on bubble hash and oil, but it isn't nearly as full and robust as good flowers are. I love me some buds :D



See, and here I thought the analogy showed that you get a more intense high from a smaller amount of hash oil than you would flowers. (Shit, man, it doesn't feel right for me to call weed "flowers"...)
 
Can you smoke weed neat ? I'm trying to find ways to take weed without tobacco as I quit a few years ago :-)

Yeah. Either roll a joint without tobacco (it still burns everyone in the UK just bullshits for some reason), or get a glass pipe or a bong. Sorted.
 
Salutations Farmacista,

...hash for the taste... ...weed... ...for the high..

No hashish smoking anymore, i vaporize dry cannabis flowers instead. Yet i'm aware that those doing "dabs" are likely to find this particular title too restrictive anyway (perhaps another thread with a wider scope should be launched actually)!

=D
 
They both are very nice. I've had excellent hash in countries where hash is decriminalized for personal use and there's high quality hash but the bud/herb was just kinda meh or like we'd call mid-grade.
 
concentrates are pricey to make but who cares im not even in a medical state and im using all my flower to make wax and shatter.
survey says hashhhhhhhh
