Canna Haus Farms / Field guide 02
Consistency names describe physical form. This guide explains the common terms and the limits of what appearance can tell you.
Explore the four formsConsistency describes the form in the jar—not a different strain, potency level, or universal ranking of quality.
For the distinction between hash and rosin, start with Understanding Hash. Understanding hash
Selected, dried trichome heads offered without pressing. Fine and granular when cold; it can soften quickly as it warms. Clean-melting selections are prized for how little residue they leave behind.
Rosin presented soon after the press, before an intentional cure. It may appear clear, glossy, or glass-like when cold, then become tackier or opaque as its texture evolves.
Pressed rosin held in a sealed jar under controlled conditions until it develops a more opaque, creamy, workable texture. Some batches are soft and wet; others are firmer.
A carefully finished rosin with a glossy, soft or sauce-like body. Small crystals can form within a more fluid portion, creating a texture that resembles its namesake.
These are visual guides, not guarantees. Texture varies naturally by cultivar, batch, temperature, and time. Not every harvest is offered in every form.
Return the lid tightly and avoid heat, sunlight, and repeated temperature swings. Melt and fresh press are especially sensitive to warmth; refrigerate for short-term keeping and freeze for longer storage.
When taking a jar out of cold storage, let it come toward room temperature while still sealed. This helps prevent condensation from reaching the resin.
Color, firmness, and surface texture can shift between runs and after time out of cold storage. Look to the cultivar, harvest, and lab results for the fuller story.
