Both live rosin and live resin can be enjoyed using vaporizers or rigs. They are suitable for smoking, vaping, or dabbing.
Vaping Live Rosin and Resin
Pre-filled vaporizers or handheld vaporizers with disposable cartridges are perfect for a discreet and straightforward consumption method. These devices accommodate various concentrates, including live resin and rosin. Portable vaporizers or e-rigs can also be used.
Live rosin and resin are available in various forms:
– Diamonds and Sauce: A mix of crystalline THCa in a terpene-rich liquid.
– Batter/Badder: A concentrate resembling cake frosting or cookie dough.
– Diamonds: Isolated THC crystals found in live resin.
– Sugar: Resin with a granulated sugar appearance.
Determining Dosage
Both live resin and rosin are potent. Start with a small amount and wait for the effects before consuming more. For vaping, begin with the lowest heat setting and increase as needed.
Using Dab Rigs
At GreenDoor, we understand that our customers are always looking for new and exciting ways to experience cannabis. Enter the world of concentrates, often called “dabs,” which offer a potent and distinct way to enjoy cannabis’s benefits. Here’s a beginner-friendly guide to understanding what dabs are, how to use them, and the tools required.
What is a Dab Rig?
A dab rig is a specialized device, often made of glass, designed specifically for consuming cannabis concentrates. They vary in style, from simple dab straws to advanced electronic rigs, and typically consist of a main body (the rig) and a heating component (the nail).
Essential Vocabulary:
Dab Rig: The device used for consuming cannabis concentrates.
Nail: The part of the rig that is heated, made of materials like quartz or titanium.
Electronic Nail: Offers precise temperature control without the need for a torch.
Dabber: A tool for safely placing the concentrate on the heated nail.
Carb Cap: Covers the nail during vaporization, enhancing the process.
Torch: Used to heat traditional nails to the required temperature.
How to Use a Dab Rig:
Secure the Nail: Ensure it’s firmly attached to the rig.
Heat the Nail: Use a torch to evenly heat it up.
Let it Cool: Wait for the nail to cool down to the desired temperature.
Apply the Dab: Use the dabber to place the concentrate on the nail.
Inhale and Enjoy: Cover with a carb cap, inhale slowly, and savor the experience.
Clean Up: Use a Q-tip to clean the nail after use.
Dab Rigs vs. Traditional Methods
Dabbing with concentrates offers a more potent experience than traditional flower. Concentrates can be much higher in THC, requiring only a tiny amount for profound effects. Dab rigs, especially electronic ones, also offer a smoke-free experience, focusing on vaporization.
The Benefits of Dabbing
Potency: Dabs are concentrated, offering a more intense experience.
Flavor: Experience the full terpene profile with a cleaner taste.
Efficiency: A small amount goes a long way.
Safety First: Precautions with Dabs
Start Small: Dabs are potent. Begin with a tiny amount.
Heat Safety: Be cautious with the torch and hot nail.
Stay Hydrated: Keep water nearby and take breaks as needed.
Know Your Limits: Listen to your body and consume responsibly.
