Keep in mind, different strains have different aromas. Some smell citrusy, like Super Lemon Haze. Others have a more pungent skunky smell like Super Skunk, and some even smell more like gasoline, like Sour Diesel. What they all have in common is that they all smell very strong.
Cannabis comes pre-packaged, and it can be hard to smell anything through those glass jars. However, if you smell anything — especially through its packaging, that is a good indicator of dank bud. Why does dank weed tend to stink up anything in its vicinity without being smoked?
This is because of all of the terpenes contained in the buds. Terpenes are the neat little chemical compounds that make up the wonderful cannabis plant. Terpenes are the aromatic oils secreted by the glands of the cannabis plant. Terpenes occur naturally in many common plants and fruits.
You smell them in basil and mangoes, which help to give them their distinctive flavors and aromas. Terpenes do the same for the cannabis plant. Humans can detect terpenes, and many affect us.
What makes lemons smell citrusy? That would be the terpene limonene. It also gives strains like Super Lemon Haze their fresh citrus aroma. That same terpene also works great at relieving stress, fighting depression, and keeping back anxiety. Other terpenes can provide similar effects. Strains containing myrcene tend to have a more musky, earthy taste and aroma, with just a kick of spice. When people refer to that dank weed taste, they are often referring to strains that contain myrcene.
Okay, got that? Science lesson over. A lot of newbies think that all dank weed should be a bright neon green or a vibrant purple while avoiding the yellows. This is actually not the case. While it is true that most of the dankest strains are neon green, quality strains can also be golden or orange in color.
What you really need to be on the lookout for are the trichomes. Do you remember the first time you smoked really dank weed? If you paid attention to the appearance of the buds before smoking them, you might have noticed that they looked like they had been dipped in sugar, as though the weed itself was wearing bling. The trichomes are very important because they contain the most THC tetrahydrocannabinol , which is what gets you high. They usually appear on both the leaves and the buds of the plant.
Trichomes are the most potent and, therefore, the most valuable part of the cannabis plant. They are what is used to make extracts like dabs and dank vape cartridges.
Trichomes are so valuable that you can separate them from your bud and add them to less dank bud as needed. This catcher is located beneath the area for catching the ground-up weed. As you chop up your herb, tiny crystals are sifted through a separate screen. Trichomes are also an important defense mechanism for the cannabis plant. The little crystals are not actually crystals at all, but mushroom-shaped protrusions that cover the surface of the leaves and buds.
They taste terrible to predators like insects and animals, making them all the more likely to leave the flowers alone, allowing them to grow in peace. They also protect from environmental dangers like strong winds and rains. In other words, a plant that has plenty of trichomes is not just more likely to survive, but also more likely to delight some lucky human.
First of all, dank bud will not have discoloring or spots that look lighter than others. Did that iridescent acid green suddenly become more of a mottled greenish-yellow? Probably should steer clear. Sometimes lighter colors can indicate that the weed you are looking at is stale, but not always, as this could also be a characteristic of the strain. There are many colors in the cannabis rainbow.
That covers the trichomes and color portion of the visual dank weed definition, but you should also consider the size of the buds. Typically, bigger is better. The larger buds most likely came from the colas or the biggest buds on the plant.

Having too wet of weed can spell trouble, it basically means your weed may be moldy. Most marijuana companies have quality controls that will weed out pun sort of intended moldy weed; however, some states are not as strict as others. Correct usage : If you need an example you should not attempt to use dank in this manner. Ok, strap in. If dank as an adjective to describe a specific beer flavor or a general property of marijuana is pretty straightforward and easily grasped, then dank memes are quite the opposite.
The simplest way to explain them is as internet in-jokes that do one or both of two things: 1. Dank memes, Dad. Dank memes are sort of like the ironic t-shirts of internet culture. But not nearly so benign. The concept surely began as chat-room slang somewhere, likely 4chan, but it seems to have gained traction on Reddit. Is that thing your aunt posted on Facebook featuring a Minion complaining about work in some way a dank meme?
Yes, probably. Are there also a lot of horrifyingly dark and racist Minions memes that were self-consciously created to be a dank meme? Yes, for certain.
By calling something a dank meme are you making fun of someone who would describe something awesome as being dank? Are you also making fun of someone who would genuinely enjoy said meme? Yes, probably, as well. Now, dispensaries and pot shops are spreading across the nation and soon the choices will be dank, danker and holy dankness Batman!
Already, if you live in a legal state, you have lofty wants when it comes to weed because you can. And that in itself is straight dank.
