Mohawk Medicine Guide
Cannabis has formal label language and street language.
Both show up around the same menu.
Mohawk Medicine can use normal adult Weed language without pretending slang is science.
The useful move is to translate the slang into a real characteristic.
Weed is common informal language for cannabis.
People often use it when they mean flower, though the word can also be used more broadly.
Bud and flower usually refer to dried cannabis flower.
Nug or nugs is slang for individual pieces of flower.
Fire means someone considers the cannabis very good.
That is an opinion.
The useful follow-up is:
What makes it fire to you?
Dank is older cannabis slang usually used positively for strong-smelling or desirable Weed.
Like fire, it is subjective.
Gas usually describes a fuel-like, diesel-like or sharp pungent aroma.
It is an aroma word.

Loud means the smell is pronounced.
The exact scent can still be gassy, fruity, skunky, floral or earthy.
Terpy suggests a noticeable aroma or flavour profile associated with terpenes.
It does not identify exact terpene content unless that information is actually provided.
