Whereas hash is the extracted resin glands of the cannabis plant, hash oil is the same thing suspended in oil. Additionally, hash oil can be hash with the consistency of oil. Both uses are common, though, if someone just says “oil” (not
“hash oil”), they’re likely referring to hash with an oil-like consistency.Hash is short for hashish, which is derived from cannabis plants and can be used for consumption or medication. Production involves the removal of the plant’s trichomes by sieving or filtering. Once the cannabinoid-laden powder has been collected, it is typically pressed and ready to be used. Hash ranges in potency, but is generally stronger than straight flowers since everything but the active part of the plant has been removed. A similar concentrated product can also be produced chemically using a solvent; however, this product is commonly referred to as hash oil or “honey oil.”
