Hashish produced in countries like Nepal, Afghanistan, India, Pakistan, and areas that surround the Himalayas has traditionally been produced primarily by rubbing live marijuana flowers with hands or other implements. The aim is to get the soft and sticky resins to stick to a surface that can be taken somewhere to be processed. It is usually dark brown to black on the surface with a lighter colored interior. It can be adulterated with almost any type of oil including coconut and palm oils. Middle East hashish from countries like Morocco, Turkey, and Lebanon is produced using the sieving process. The hashish is usually harder and drier than rubbed hashish. It can vary in color from yellow to red to brown. If you break a piece open, you should see the very small granules of resin that make up hashish made by sieving. It can be adulterated with a variety of things like henna, tarmac, and can even include sand and tar extracts. You can usually tell rubbed and sieved hashish apart by the color and how pliable it is. Rubbed has a black or dark brown exterior and is more pliable when fresh. It also has a strong smell. Sieved hashish is golden yellow to red or light brown in color. It is drier (less pliable) than rubbed and the smell is subtle (less strong). Depending on where you live, you may have limited access to hashish. In most parts of North America, rubbed hashish imported from areas that surround the Himalayas is more commonly available. Smaller amounts of sieved Middle East hashish are occasionally sold. If you have the option of choosing, rubbed hashish is almost always superior to sieved. However, good sieved hashish should be chosen over low quality rubbed hash. Hashish can be mixed with other chemicals (usually oils) to increase its weight, but this decreases potency. Dealers do this to increase their profit.

Re: Lingo around the way..
Well, I just call it Hash or Bubble. It goes for an average of $35 gram around here.
Never understood why so low of price either with all the work involved. But when I explain to people the process, they look at me like I'm nuts. But when they try it, then everyone wants some. I started making it for my own benefit, but it seems like more and more people want me to run their trim for them. Sometimes it seems my hobby of making hash, has turned into a job. LOL
