You may have seen the label “shake” attached to certain kinds of weed. How is shake weed different from standard weed at the dispensary, and what are the different uses for it?
“Shake,” simply put, is a word that implies leftover weed, or whatever describes the marijuana equivalent of table scraps. It’s the bits of bud that aren’t good enough for display or weren’t properly cured. For this reason, shake is incredibly inexpensive at the dispensary and can even be found for under $50 per ounce in some lucky cases. If shake is much lower quality weed — literally the bottom of the barrel — compared to the average flower on the market, what’s the use? Here are a few practical solutions for your everyday shake. 1. Edibles Bud quality is not going to be as important in edibles as it would be in a joint. This makes shake the perfect ingredient to throw into some brownies or a batch of cannabis-infused cooking oil. Shake is already ground up finer than standard buds, which makes the preparation process significantly easier. One detail to be aware of, however, is that shake often comes from a medley of strains, making the THC content both unknown and impossible to measure. 2. Blunt stuffer If you’re looking for a little extra stuffing to round out an under-packed blunt, shake is the best option. Padding a high-quality blunt with a few table scraps will give it both a nicer shape and extra punch. The good news is that filling in the gaps with shake probably won’t change the quality of your smoke. 3. Tinctures or extracts Similar to edibles, shake is a great, budget-friendly ingredient for tinctures or extracts. It allows you to save the maximum potential of your top-shelf weed for smoking while allowing you to consume marijuana in other forms. To boost the potency of your tincture, you can also throw in a pinch of kief. 4. A more functional high Many smokers have testified that smoking shake gives them a slightly lighter buzz than normal. This is perfect for smoking more joints in one session or getting high without losing total functionality. Of course, the quality won’t be the same, but it still serves a useful purpose. 5. Gravity bong Gravity bongs, while great for large parties or groups, are terrible for capturing the full essence and flavors of a great strain of weed. If you want to get super high without wasting your best weed, toss some shake in the gravity bong for the same amount of fun.
