As 7/10 Day, or "Oil Day," gains popularity within the cannabis community, it’s an excellent opportunity to dive deep into the world of cannabis concentrates. Celebrated on July 10th, this day focuses on the unique and potent forms of cannabis, such as oils, shatter, wax, and other extracts. Here, we explore the various types of concentrates, the benefits of shopping at our reputable dispensary, and the pros and cons of solventless concentrates versus live or cured products.

Cannabis concentrates come in various forms, each with distinct characteristics and methods of production. Here are some of the most popular types:

1. Shatter: Known for its glass-like texture, shatter is created through a process that involves extracting cannabinoids and terpenes from the cannabis plant using solvents like butane. The result is a translucent, brittle concentrate that breaks easily, hence the name.
2. Wax: With a consistency similar to honey or wax, this concentrate is made using a process similar to shatter but results in a more opaque and pliable product. Wax can vary in texture from soft and gooey to more firm and crumbly, often referred to as budder or crumble.
3. Live Resin: This concentrate is made from fresh cannabis plants that are frozen immediately after harvest. The preservation of terpenes through this process results in a flavorful and aromatic product. Live resin is known for its high terpene content, making it a favorite among those seeking a robust flavor profile.
4. Rosin: Unlike other concentrates that require solvents, rosin is made using heat and pressure to extract the cannabinoids and terpenes. This solventless method produces a clean and potent concentrate that retains much of the original plant’s flavor and aroma.

Pros and Cons of Solventless Concentrates vs. Live or Cured Products

Solventless Concentrates:

• Pros:
• Purity: Solventless concentrates like rosin are made without chemical solvents, resulting in a cleaner product with no risk of residual solvents.
• Flavor: The natural extraction process preserves the full spectrum of terpenes and cannabinoids, providing a rich and flavorful experience.
• Safety: The lack of chemical solvents makes these concentrates safer to produce and consume.
• Cons:
• Yield: Solventless extraction methods often yield less product compared to solvent-based methods, which can make them more expensive.
• Consistency: The texture and potency of solventless concentrates can vary, making them less predictable than solvent-based products (ACS Lab) (HelloMD)

Live or Cured Products:

• Pros:
• Potency: Solvent-based concentrates like live resin and BHO often have higher THC levels, providing a more intense experience.
• Variety: These methods can produce a wide range of textures and consistencies, catering to different consumer preferences.
• Efficiency: Solvent-based methods can extract more cannabinoids and terpenes, making the process more efficient and the products potentially more potent.
• Cons:
• Residual Solvents: If not properly purged, these products can contain residual solvents, which can be harmful if consumed.
• Flavor Degradation: The use of high heat and solvents can sometimes degrade the terpenes, resulting in a less flavorful product.

By understanding the different types of cannabis concentrates and their respective benefits and drawbacks, you can make an informed decision on the best product for your needs. As 7/10 Day approaches, it’s the perfect time to explore and celebrate the diverse world of cannabis concentrates.
