Shake, quite simply, consists of small pieces of the cannabis flower that have broken off the full flower bud. Shake can be found at the bottom of cannabis dispensary jars filled with flower buds or the bag that holds your purchased bud. Shake is a completely normal by-product of handling and moving marijuana flower.

For cannabis enthusiasts that don’t want to use their premium flower for edibles, shake is a great alternative. Whether it’s shake of a particular strain or a variety of strains, it can be collected, turned into cannabutter or cannaoil, and baked into a variety of different recipes.
