Kief is the cannabis flower’s most potent part, containing a high concentration of cannabinoids and terpenes in its tiny, sticky crystals. Also called “dry sift” or “pollen,” kief refers to the flower’s trichomes’ resin glands. Technically, kief is the crystal formation on the tip of each of these glands.

How do I use it?

Most people who use the substance just end up sprinkling a little bit (or a lot) on top of some bud. Also known as “crowning a bowl,” it’s the most common way to use kief and will increase the potency of any weed.
