What is shatter?

Shatter is a translucent, brittle concentrate made by extracting cannabis resin with a solvent and purging it carefully. It snaps like glass at room temperature, which gives it its name, and it is typically consumed by dabbing or vaporizing.

It is much more potent than flower: begin with a very small amount. Keep it in an airtight container away from heat so it does not soften.
