Hashish

hashishpronounced /hæˈʃiːʃ/ or /ˈhæʃiːʃ/, from Arabic: حشيش ḥashīsh, lit.


Grass, from hashisha to become dry; also hash is a preparation of cannabis composed of the compressed stalked resin glands called trichomes, collected from the cannabis plant.


It contains the same active ingredients but in higher concentrations than other parts of the plant such as the buds or the leaves. Hashish is often a paste-like substance with varying hardness and pliability. Its color is most commonly light to dark brown, but can vary toward green, yellow, black, or red.


Psychoactive effects are the same as those of other cannabis preparations. It is sometimes believed that the effects are different, but those perceptions usually stem from the increased potency of hashish, as well as variations between regionally different Cannabis specimens that are typically processed into hashish.


Hashish is heated in a screened miniature smoking pipe (one-hitter, kiseru, midwakh, sebsi etc.), hookah, bong bubbler, vaporizer, hot knife, smoked in joints mixed with cannabis buds, tobacco or other aromatic herbs, or cooked in foods.
