MARIJUANA FLOWERS

Common forms of flower

Loose flower

In addition, loose flower is what it sounds like — just buds on their own, not rolled or processed. Purchased in a dispensary, loose flower might come in a jar or sealed bag labeled by strain and weight. Once harvested from the cannabis plant, dried, and cured, flower must still be ground, usually in a cannabis grinder, to make it easier to handle and consume. Once ground, it can be rolled into a joint, packed in a bong bowl, or decarbed and used in homemade edibles.

Flower quality

Private reserve

It often carries with it the connotation that the dispensary is responsible for its cultivation and harvest. Be aware that private reserve is also a brand of cannabis and a strain so be sure you and the budtender are on the same page when you ask for it.

Top-shelf

Furthermore, the term top-shelf weed describes high-quality cannabis that’s not quite as good as private reserve. Interchangeable terms that describe medical marijuana of this tier include piff, fire, chronic, loud, and artisanal. Also, growing top-quality cannabis requires attentive care and meticulous harvesting, which is why bud in this category fetches higher prices. Growers focus on quality over quantity when it comes to producing top-shelf cannabis. Buds should be dark to bright green with shoots of purple or orange. If you look closely, top-shelf bud also boasts oodles of intact trichomes. Oftentimes, fire cannabis feels sticky to the touch, like cotton candy. But your nose should be your primary guide so sniff for a rich, pungent aroma.

Bottom-shelf

To conclude, the term bottom-shelf describes particularly low-quality herb. Lastly, modern-day dispensaries organize their cannabis by quality, saving this term for their cheapest, lowest-quality stuff. Bottom-shelf cannabis is old, contains seeds and stems, and tastes harsh when combusted. Often, bottom-shelf cannabis is brown in color and lacks a robust scent or visible trichomes.
