Since the dawn of time, cannabis has been used for the medical benefits. People from all over the world have been using it to treat various diseases and conditions. Throughout the history, cannabis has been used for recreational purposes and for spiritual reasons as well.
In ancient times, cannabis was mostly used for industrial purposes. The first forms of cannabis were ropes and fabrics which were grown from cannabis plants and used for clothing and other industrial purposes. But fast forwarding to today, we have a lot of uses for cannabis and one of them is “hash” also known as hashish or hash.
Hash is a type of cannabis product which can be easily obtained from the cannabis plant by means of various drying, pressing and rubbing techniques. Although the end result of hashish is not something that can be smoked, it offers a lot of benefits to those who use it. You can consume hashish in various ways such as by eating or by vaporizing it. Vaporizing is a better option if you want to enjoy the effects of hashish because you will avoid burning it which can lead to combustion and smoke inhalation.
The first question that comes to mind when someone mentions hashish is how does it look like? Hash is usually pressed into different shapes such as cubes or blocks, but their appearance can vary depending on the type of cannabis plant material used for creating hash, the pressing technique and the drying process. On average, hashish contains 20-30 percent of cannabinoids such as THC and CBD along with other beneficial compounds such as terpenes.
In order to produce hashish, you can use various processes including dry-sifting (finely grinding cannabis plant material with a fine mesh screen), dry-rubbing (finely grinding smoke dried cannabis plant material with hands or teeth) or wet-sifting (grinding wet cannabis plant material with water). All these processes are aimed at removing valuable resin glands from the rest of the cannabis plant material which is basically resinous trichomes that contain cannabinoids. Resin glands are dried and pressed into an edible form which we commonly know as hashish.
You can use hashish in various ways. It can be eaten straight out of a baggie or you can sprinkle it on your food just like salt or some seasoning. Edible hashish is not psychoactive because it does not undergo combustion when you ingest it due to their size which doesn’t allow for any kind of chemical breakdowns in your stomach so they pass through your digestive track without being absorbed by your body. But if you consume large amounts of edible hashish, you may become intoxicated because they will pass through your digestive track unchanged while still full of psychoactive cannabinoids such as THC and CBD.
If you want to get high from consuming hashish, you will either have to vaporize it or smoke it. The effects of smoking or vaping hashish will last longer than regular cannabis because its size prevents quick absorption through your digestive system while also preventing quick break down after ingestion due to water in your stomach and enzymes in your stomach juices. After smoking or vaping hashish, it will take some time for cannabinoids to get absorbed through your lungs or enter into your bloodstream. This delay makes effects from smoking or vaping hashish last longer than with regular cannabis consumption methods.
