The highest grade of marijuana. This term originated in the southern United States, possibly Florida. Synonyms include
Kine Bud in New York slang,
Nug," or
Nuggets, (referring to the tendency of marijuana with a high THC level to be sticky, which causes it to clump together into
Nuggets) and
Skunk Bud or
Skunk Weed (due to the potent odor).
Some experts estimate that there may be as many as 1,000 different breeds of marijuana that could be classified as
Krippy, although some of the better known ones include
White Widow,
Northern Lights,
New York White,
Acapulco Gold,
Jamaican Red,
Indica, and
Amsterdam.
Lower quality grades of marijuana, in descending order, would include
Shwuggets (something between
Shwag and
Nuggets )
Commercial or mid-grade weed,
Shwag (often dryer and containing more stalks and seeds than
Krippy or
Kine) and, at the bottom of the chart,
Dirt Weed or
Headache Medicine.
