While even our most experienced consumers have extensive knowledge of marijuana products, we are often asked a common question: what are marijuana moonrocks?
At times referred to as the “cannabis caviar,” marijuana moon rocks are highly potent weed nugs. Most marijuana connoisseurs agree unconditionally that smoking moon rocks –one of the most potent cannabinoid and terpene-rich products – will give you a very unique high.
Below, we’ll go over everything you should know about these unique products, including how to smoke moonrocks, what they are made of, and what side effects they carry
What Are Moonrocks Made Of?
Moon rocks are small nuggets of marijuana flower covered in a marijuana concentrate and coiled in terpene-rich kief. Due to the combination of pure bud with THC-rich concentrate, it produces a high that is often considered second to none.
Initially, they were created with a strain of marijuana called Girl Scout Cookies, better known as GSC – an Indica dominant (60%) hybrid. However, more recently, producers have found that they can use any weed strain; all they have to do is merge it with concentrate and kief.
These “rocks” of THC were popularized in the US by a rapper named Ricardo Emmanuel Brown, famously known by the stage name Kurupt — the erstwhile VP of Death Row Records. With his associate Dr. Zodiak, Kurupt trademarked these moonrocks, tagging them as the most potent buds in town.
Moonrocks Weed Effects
The impact of moonrocks vary based on THC levels and the user’s tolerance, among other factors. Even though you may feel some impact upon your first sniff, usually, it takes approximately 30 minutes for the full effects to occur. Based on how much you’ve smoked moonrocks, the high can last a few hours, or a full day. Here are some of the moonrock weed effects that you may experience:
Dry eyes
Cottonmouth
Dehydration
Munchies
Increased heartbeat
Anxiety
Paranoia
Headaches
Dizziness
Nausea
Sleepiness
Impaired memory
Coughing
If you want to avoid these side effects, you should start slow and determine your ideal dosage through trial and error. Eat something before smoking, and ensure that you’re well-hydrated before, during, and after your high.
How Strong Are Moon Rocks?
Though the efficacy of every moonrock batch varies, the consensus is that they have over 50% Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). In comparison, most flowers tend to have only 20%.
Hitting them produces a high terpene-rich, pleasant penchant of kief, which can compel you to look for the nearest seat. What about “the high?” It starts in your head first and then spreads throughout your body, all the way to the toes. Therefore, they’re recommended only for advanced marijuana consumers.
So, how can you smoke moon rocks?
- Roll A Joint
The simplest technique to smoke your cannabis-filled rocks is by rolling a joint. Use your regular marijuana as the foundation for the joint and place small pieces of moon rocks in between.
Make sure to cut the rocks with a cutting knife, rather than crumbling them in a crusher.
- Use Glassware
If you’re using a pipe or a bong to smoke moon rocks, make sure you cut it correctly because it’s not the typical flower you consume every day. It’s greasy and thick and needs to be torn apart.
Once it’s ready, inhale evenly and slowly, and ensure to wait a while between each hit.
