And, no worries for the 'rents, the site explains how “the cannabis plant” can be used in many different ways: By smoking “joints, pipes or blunts,” drinking or eating “teas, sodas or baked goods,” vaping and dabbing.
All honest info parents might want to know, of course. But then it gets to the slang terms, which are by far the best.
For starters:
pot
bud
wax
And then we get:
errl
purp
keef
dope
herb
And it just keeps going:
joint
rosin
spliff
trees
boom
weed
ganja
skunk
And going…
reefer
doobie
shatter
budder
gangster
honeycomb

dank or dank krippy
The Canadian government knows all about that “dank krippy.”
Incredible.
