Frost
Frost
“Frost” is a slang term in cannabis terminology used to describe flowers with a dense and visible layer of trichomes. These small resin-producing glands give the surface a whitish, crystallized, or “frost”-like appearance.
The word, therefore, does not refer to cold but to the visual impression reminiscent of hoarfrost or frost on a surface.
Frost in cannabis terminology
In the cannabis world, “frost” serves as a visual quality marker. When a flower is described as “frosty,” it refers to a prominent and dense trichome layer that makes the surface bright and sparkling.
The term is often used in connection with well-known strains like “White Widow”, which has historically been associated with a particularly crystallized appearance.
It is important to emphasize that “frost” is not a strain or an independent category, but a descriptive term for appearance and structure.
