Top 5 Medical Marijuana Available for Consumption
The following is the list of five types of medical marijuana or cannabis products explained in brief.
Cannabis concentrates
Concentration in mixtures will always denote the higher proportions of certain constituents. The same goes true for cannabis concentrates also as the concentration of major constituents like CBD, THC, and terpenes will be high. Since these elements alone are responsible for the psychoactive and other biological effects, the concept of concentrates is to deliver only what is needed to the consumers. You will not find anything unnecessary in these concentrates. If you are highly focused on getting the most out of cannabis products, you can go for concentrates. Live resin is an example of cannabis concentrates. Usually, concentrates will be coupled with some other cannabis products as they will increase the effect of the latter also. For instance, you can find people sprinkling concentrates on a bud of any strain to increase the effects. You can either do so or consume it separately. If you are consuming separately, vaping will help.

Cannabis shake
Cannabis shake is not a specific category of Marijuana products but is a form in which some dispensaries sell the leftovers of their products.

So, the leftovers will always be sold at a reduced price. If they are from quality flower buds, your purchase will be worth it. Else, you will be wasting your money as shakes cannot be returned due to low quality.
