Three related products that are often grouped together but are not identical. Shake is the small pieces of flower that break off buds during handling and packaging. Trim is the small leaves and fragments cut away from buds during trimming. It carries fewer resin glands than flower and is usually lower in potency. Ground flower is whole flower milled to an even consistency, ready to roll or pack.

All three usually cost less than whole flower, and all are common in pre-rolls and pre-packed containers. The greater exposed surface means they dry out and lose terpenes faster than whole buds. Potency depends on what is actually in the package, which the COA reports.

A plant bred from both indica-type and sativa-type parents. Menus use "Hybrid" for effects described as in between or mixed. The label is often narrowed to indica-dominant hybrid, sativa-dominant hybrid, or balanced ("50/50"). Any percentages given are the breeder's estimate from the plant's family tree, not a measured one.

After decades of crossbreeding, nearly all modern commercial strains are hybrids in the genetic sense, regardless of the label they carry. The label says more about how a product is positioned than about the plant. A listed lineage (the cross) is more specific, but a strain name doesn't guarantee chemistry either.
