Dried and cured female cannabis flower (buds), sold intact and not ground. The flower is where the plant's resin glands are most concentrated. After harvest, the flowers are dried, trimmed of excess leaves, and cured under controlled humidity to stabilize moisture and preserve terpenes.

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.
