Learning the history of moon rock weed and how they are made is not only interesting to know, but is fundamental knowledge in cannabis culture. Moon rocks weed is a creative way to elevate your smoking experience.
What is a Weed Moon Rock?
Moon rock weed is a form of cannabis that combines three different forms of potent THC. A form of cannabis hash oil, kief, and flower creates an insanely potent and flavorful nug to smoke. The high from moon rocks weed is certainly not something to underestimate. Unless you are a casually regular cannabis consumer, moon rocks will undoubtedly have you feeling out of this world, in another dimension.
Many cannabis experts will reference moon rocks and cannabis caviar as the same, although there is a distinction between the two. Cannabis caviar is similar to moon rock weed, except these nugs are dipped in cannabis oil, compared to moon rocks that are covered in kief.
The history of weed moon rocks stems from the long relationship between cannabis culture and hip-hop. Early 1990’s rapper Kurupt partnered with hip-hop artist Dr. Zodiak to create the mixtape project Dr. Zodiak’s Moonrock, which eventually launched a whole branded moon rocks line of products. Since then, many brands and dispensaries have experimented with their own moon rocks creations although all require the same ingredients to be made.

How To Make Moon Rock Weed
- Grab about one or two nugs of your flower, the denser the better.
- Grab your cannabis concentrate. If it is super thick and tough, heat up a small bit until the concentrate is more liquidy. Be careful not to heat too much and burn your cannabis!
- Using your liquid dropper, completely cover your bud in the liquid cannabis concentration. Use tongs to hold the cannabis nug and cover every side.
- Using your tongs, grab the bud and roll it in the kief until the entire nug is dusted in shiny green goodness.
- Let your cannabis concoction dry. Depending on their density, some nugs will dry quicker than others. As long as it’s completely dried, you’re ready to enjoy your moon rocks.
