What is Shake?
Shake is the leftover small pieces of cannabis flowers that are accumulated over time and are commonly found at the bottom of storage containers. It is made up of loose, broken leaves and stems, and small nugs that have fallen off the buds. Shake is typically lower in potency than whole buds and is considered a less desirable form of cannabis due to its often inconsistent potency.
However, despite its lower potency, shake can still be used for a variety of purposes. Some people use it to make edibles, as it contains enough THC to get you high. Others add it to joints or pipes to bulk up the amount of cannabis they have, or to make their stash last longer. Some people use shake for making concentrates such as kief or rosin, or for making infused oils and tinctures. In general, shake is a versatile form of cannabis that can be used in a variety of ways, making it an economical choice for those who are looking for a more affordable option.
Strain Background
Black Tuna was created by 5 Star Organic in order to provide patients with a powerful hit of THC that is beneficial for chronic pain relief. It is a British Columbian stain made by crossing Lamb’s Bread and Herojuana and is extremely popular in Canada not only for the strong narcotic effect it provides but also for its quirky marketing tactics as this was sold in sealed tuna cans. Flowers of this marijuana strain are compact, covered in trichomes and carry a strong smell. The color of Black Tuna is rich sage green with shades of darker green and also hints of purple. However, this strain does not smell like fish. In fact, the name originates from Black Tuna Gang that was well-known for the smuggling of Colombian marijuana in the 1970s in the United States. With a THC level of 22-28 percent, it is a potent strain and may be a bit too much for a beginner or moderate users. Black Tuna carries a spicy and intoxicating flavor with a slightly putrid and spicy smell. The effects of Black Tuna are experiencing a euphoric feel along with feeling happy and aroused. It aids with insomnia, pain, inflammation, spasticity, nausea, headache and cramps.
