According to people I know, shake is the crumbs at the bottom of the bag of buds and trim is the leaves off the bud. This woman gives me a giant tub of some part of the plant and says it is shake. It is very well cured, no mildew or mold smell, but no kind of weed smell at all. I say this is not shake, do you mean trim maybe? She says, no this is not trim, it is shake. I say i don't know what to do with this because I was expecting the stuff at the bottom of a bud bag when you said shake. She says you take it and freeze it then soak it in pure grain alcohol and ice and make oil, butter, all kinds of stuff... So I'm thinking wax? But I've read a lot and think it may be sugar leaves/fan leaves and stems but ultimately it smells like grass, not a hint of weed so her insisting it was not trim and that it is shake has me confused because I'm not a grower, don't know grower terminology and don't know what this is exactly in my own terminology besides trash it may be? Sifted the whole bucket, no buds at all... what is it and how can I best concentrate any potency if there is any? I think from the feedback I got so far it is not fresh, weak first trim so I'm may be completely up the creek with no paddle but I'm not a quitter lol...but clearly I'm inexperienced so break it down if you know a method please... and thank you...
