Flower (or bud) is the part of a marijuana plant that contains all of the cannabinoids. Most commonly, it is ground up and smoked. Only female plants produce flowers in the ‘bloom’ stage, which usually takes 6 to 8 weeks.
Trichomes
Trichomes are the crystals visible on flowering tops. They are a rich source of THC and are an indicator of how potent the cannabis will be. Trichomes can change their color and size depending on the strain and stage of their growing cycle. They are used to indicate when a plant is fully mature and ready for harvest.
Terpenes
Terpenes are organic aromas found in the oils of flowering plants such as cannabis. These oils have their own benefits and makeup that have an increased effect when ingested. When cannabinoids and terpenes work together they create an ‘entourage’ effect that enhances the medicinal properties of the cannabis plant.
Cola
A ‘cola’ is a botanical term that describes the bud or flowering area of the female plant. Female plants have different physical structures than male plants, which do not produce flower. A cluster of blossoming buds is referred to as a cola.
Cannabinoids
The two major cannabinoids are THC and CBD. There are many more cannabinoids such as CBC, CBG, and CBN. THC and CBD affect users by interacting with specific receptors located at different parts of the nervous system. The main cannabinoid receptors are CB1 and CB2.
sativa
Sativas are reported to increase energy and appetite while also elevating the consumer’s mood and focus. It is generally recommended for daytime use.
indica
Indicas are reported to promote relaxation as well as reduce anxiety and promote sleep.
hybrid
Hybrid strains are produced when cultivators crossbreed different indica and sativa strains to maintain the desired traits and breed out the undesired to meet specific needs.
What sets rosin apart from solvent-based products is the fact that it's a solventless process. This is highly attractive to health-conscious cannabis consumers.
Hash rosin from our dispensary is made from carefully selected, high-quality cannabis flowers, giving it its unique flavor and aroma. Our rosins are extracted using a low-temperature, high-pressure process to ensure the best possible flavor and potency. It is also free of any solvents, making it a safe and natural cannabis concentrate. Enjoy a superior smoking experience with our hash rosin!
The first step in the production of resin from cannabis plants is to find the right plants to extract from.
This involves finding seeds and cones from plants that are known to produce a high level of resin and plant them, ensuring that the live resin that is extracted is of the highest quality possible. resin is found on the trichomes of a cannabis plant. It is a sticky and brown substance that requires a relatively complex procedure to remove, although the effort in doing so is certainly worth it due to the overall quality of the resin substance.
Bubble hash creates strong psychoactive effects because of their potency.
Bubble hash is a solventless extract that uses no additional chemical inputs. It got its name from the tiny bubbles that form when it’s heated. As the cold temperatures used during extraction preserve most of the terpenes, bubble hash is one of the most aromatic and flavourful extracts you can make.
Thick, whipped, & frosty appearance.
Badder is a type of cannabis concentrate, named for the texture and resemblance it has to cake batter. It generally has a softer and more malleable texture that can range in from saturated, to a damp wax like crumble depending on the variables during the extraction process.
The extraction process is implemented by way of either butane, water, or alcohol acting as a solvent in which the cannabis is soaked, then in order to extract the terpenes and cannabinoids from the plant the use of CO2 is administered to separate the chemical from the plant resulting in a highly concentrated form. Once complete you are left with the waxy cannabis concentrate known as badder.
Distillate is created through a process which removes all impurities through a multi-step purification process that essential oil and fragrance companies use to create tinctures and perfumes.
Distillate is a popular type of cannabis concentrate due to its potency and versatility. It is often used as a base for cannabis edibles and vape cartridges, as it has been stripped of all lipids, fats, and plant material to leave behind a pure form of the desired cannabinoid. This means that distillate is one of the purest forms of concentrates available, as all other terpenes, flavonoids, and cannabinoids are removed during the extraction process.
Wax is a highly potent cannabis concentrate, with THC levels that can easily reach 90% or higher.
Wax is a highly potent extraction of cannabinoids such as THC and CBD, along with flavorful compounds like terpenes and flavonoids. It is a dense, shelf-stable substance that is typically consumed by vaporizing or dabbing. Wax can be an effective alternative for individuals who are dealing with chronic symptoms or conditions that do not respond well to traditional cannabis flower. However, due to its potency, it's important to approach wax with caution and start with a small amount to see how it affects you before consuming more.
THCA diamonds are one of the purest THC-dominant cannabis concentrates on the market, containing up to 99.9% THC when heated.
THCA diamonds deliver ample amounts of THCA into the body, which can aid in treating inflammatory body conditions, including arthritis, seizures, fibromyalgia, neuropathic pain, and lupus. The effects of THCA on inflammatory conditions have been well-documented.
THCA diamonds are typically vaporized or “dabbed,” either in combination with flower, within a concentrate, or for those with very high tolerance, on their own.
Cannabis salves are topical applications made from cannabis-infused oils and beeswax.
Topicals work by activating cannabinoid receptors in the skin. When applied to the skin, cannabinoids like THC and CBD can interact with the endocannabinoid system, which is responsible for regulating a variety of physiological processes, including pain perception, inflammation, and immune function. By activating cannabinoid receptors in the skin, topicals can potentially provide pain relief, enhance healing, and reduce inflammation in the affected area.
CBD is an essential component of medical marijuana, it is derived directly from the hemp plant, a cousin of marijuana, or manufactured in a laboratory.
CBD has been the subject of numerous studies and research, with some of the strongest scientific evidence pointing to its effectiveness in treating certain childhood epilepsy syndromes that do not typically respond to antiseizure medications. CBD has been shown to reduce the number of seizures and, in some cases, stop them altogether. Epidiolex, a cannabis-derived medicine that contains CBD, has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of these conditions.
In addition to its potential in treating epilepsy, animal studies and research in humans suggest that CBD may also be effective in reducing anxiety, improving insomnia, and helping to control chronic pain. While further human studies are needed to fully substantiate these claims, there is promising evidence that CBD may be a useful tool in managing a variety of health issues. Additionally, some research in humans and animal models of addiction suggest that CBD may help to lower cravings for tobacco, heroin, alcohol, cannabis, opiates, and stimulants.
Edibles are a food item that contains decarboxylated cannabinoids from cannabis extract as an active ingredient.
Edibles can be either homemade or produced commercially, and they are a popular way to consume cannabis. Unlike smoking, which delivers cannabinoids to the bloodstream rapidly and wears off within a few hours, edibles can take several hours to digest and their effects may last for several hours after consumption. This is because the cannabinoids are metabolized by the liver before entering the bloodstream, which can result in a slower onset and longer-lasting effects. The potency and timing of the effects of an edible can be influenced by a variety of factors, including the type and amount of cannabis used, the food or drink used to make the edible, and the individual's metabolism. It's important to start with a low dose and wait to see how the effects develop before consuming more, as the effects of edibles can be more intense and long-lasting than other methods of consumption.
