What are mids? (Why does everyone in the cannabis industry love to make fun of them?)

For many who are new to the cannabis industry, you may have heard the word “mid” a number of times when trying to buy weed. Now I know we all want to pretend we’re familiar with every lingua in the cannabis industry, but it’s okay if you’re not. All you need is the right information and you’re good to go. So if you’ve been wondering, “What are mids?” then look no further. In this article, you’ll learn everything you need to know about mids, as well as the pros and cons.

Cannabis Quality Spectrum

Before we delve into mids, you need to understand what is known as the cannabis quality spectrum. This is simply the classification of cannabis based on its quality, and many cannaseurs have been known to use the classification that Mitten recognizes. Under this classification, cannabis flowers are classified into 4; Regs, Mittens, Beasts and Headies. This classification ranks the quality of the weed from least to best. This means regs are the worst quality and headies are the best.

Another explanation for the quality spectrum of cannabis is the tripartite marijuana flowers. This is beneficial because the three categories are low quality, medium quality, and high quality. The high quality cannabis can be further divided into low-high quality and high-high quality cannabis. However, since we are focusing on mids, further explanations will refer to both classifications for ease of understanding.

What are mids?

From the previous explanation, we already know where the midpoints lie in the four categories of marijuana flower grading. In terms of the three classes, Mid can be seen as the midpoint between low-quality and high-quality cannabis. This classification has spawned various names for this class of marijuana flowers over the years. These include Middle, Middle Shelf, The Thirties, Middies and B+. All of these names point to the same thing, but what identifies Mitten is the flower variables. These include appearance, taste, cannabinoid content, effects and price.

Looks

You can easily identify mids by their appearance, as many US cannabis easily fall into this category. The buds are usually separate and contain few seeds and stems. It is also possible that the buds contain no seeds at all. The mids have very few trichomes and are very light with colored pistils and orange hairs.

taste

Mids have a normal flavor depending on the characteristics of the strain. They’re not as harsh as regs, but they’re not without their damaging effects. Mitten will likely make you cough and hack repeatedly.

cannabinoid content

You guessed right in thinking mids have higher cannabinoid content than regs. This means that they tend to have better relaxing and medicinal effects compared to regs. That’s about it though, as beasts and headies have better cannabinoid levels than mids.

Price

The cost of midrange drivers has now become more regulated as there are legal markets in various states. However, prices vary depending on the existing conditions in different states. However, mids are cheaper compared to beasts and headies.

Pros and cons of moderately good weed

Price

One of the good things about Mitten that many have liked is that it is very cheap. This means you don’t necessarily have to break the bank when it comes to sourcing your weed. That’s probably why it’s still a fan favorite of many, especially in such a time of elevated inflation.

colour

As mentioned earlier, the mids are properly equipped with colored punches and orange hairs. This makes them very attractive and pleasing to the eye, which then encourages purchase. While the mids aren’t nearly as bright as Headies, they’re also as dull as Regs.

High

The type of high felt from smoking medium quality weed depends on the smoking experience. Seasoned smokers love mids because they will easily achieve their desired high. Others with a lesser level of experience range from a feeling of blast to high before experiencing the desired high.

Disadvantages

Looks

While the color of the mids gives it a big advantage over regs, its looks are still a big issue. Most of the bud still appears brown and green despite the orange hairs and many are squashed. Mids can also contain seeds, which have unpleasant pungent effects on the smoking experience. If not sourced properly, some mids are notoriously moldy. While all plant matter may not be engulfed by fungus, breaking apart may show signs of fungus. If you see signs of mold in your cannabis, it is best not to consume it for health reasons.

Comparison with other grass qualities

The regs are on the lower end of the scale, so you have some degree of knowledge of what to expect. They are usually packed in bricks with the stems and seeds visible. They are usually brown in color and have a tart taste that causes a sore throat. They give a smooth high and promote sleep, although upset stomach and breathing problems are common side effects.

Beasts are very attractive with their orange and purple hair, trichome crystals and lack of stalks. Depending on the strain, she has a smooth and delicious flavor that enhances the smoking experience. Beaters give a good high, depending on the THC concentration of the strain. They’re more expensive than midranges, however, so get ready to spend the bucks.

Headies are what you call premium material. She has no stems or seeds and is completely covered in orange, purple, and green hairs and trichome crystals. It has a perfect taste without a hint of heat and a high concentration of cannabinoids. That makes it quite expensive, but you’ll get your money’s worth.

bottom line

Mids aren’t the perfect class of cannabis flower, but they do have their advantages. Depending on what you have and what you want, you can settle into the best category that applies to you, but mids are pretty decent.
