If you’ve ever browsed CBD flower and wondered “What’s the real difference between trim, small buds, full buds… and rocks?” — this is for you. In our latest short video, we break down the key distinctions so you can pick the right option for your budget, your preferences, and your routine.
CBD Trim (sometimes called “shake”)
Trim is the plant material left over from handling and trimming flower — often a mix of small pieces and leafy trimmings. It’s typically the most budget-friendly option and is popular for people who mainly care about value and efficiency. (In cannabis processing terms, “trim” refers to the leaves/trimmings removed during harvest.)
Best for: budget buyers, infusions, “everyday” use
Expect: less “bag appeal” than buds, but still functional and aromatic depending on the batch.
Small Buds CBD
Smalls are exactly what they sound like: compact flowers. The key point: they’re still proper buds, just smaller. On HempHash, small buds CBD are positioned as offering the same premium quality as larger counterparts, at a better price point, and suitable for tea infusions and enjoying their aromas.
Best for: best value-per-gram, people who want “real buds” without paying for size
Expect: similar experience to full buds, just smaller pieces.
Big Buds CBD
Full buds are the larger, more visually impressive flowers — the classic “premium nug” look. On the HempHash CBD Flower range, products are curated for different needs and budgets, with an emphasis on quality standards and an infused tea-drinking experience.
Best for: top presentation, giftability, the most “premium” feel
Expect: bigger nugs, more “bag appeal”.
CBD Rocks
“Rocks” are for people who want maximum CBD intensity. HempHash’s Moon Rocks are described as CBD flowers dipped in ultra-pure CBD isolate and coated in high-quality hemp flower pollen, creating a much more concentrated product.
Best for: experienced users, high-CBD seekers, something “next level”
Expect: very potent CBD profile, and a texture that can be harder to break down.
If you want the best balance of quality and value, smalls are hard to beat, since they’re still proper buds—just smaller. If you’re after the most premium look and the “classic” flower experience, full buds are the go-to choice. And if you’re an experienced user looking for the highest CBD intensity, CBD rocks offer a more concentrated, next-level option.
Whatever you choose, the best pick is the one that matches your routine and expectations—value, aesthetics, or strength.
