Lets talk about Dabbing
So what exactly is dabbing you may ask? dabbing comes from the term “dab” or to lightly press against something which in the case of concentrates a torch heated surface of an oil rig , normally via an ceramic nail or titanium nail is heated and a small amount of concentrate placed on the surface where it is inhaled either directly or through a glass oil rig setup, some of these concentrates contain up to 90% Thc levels and are considered for the advanced & experienced consumers Only.
Dabbing has gained allot of popularity lately with the influx of more widely available Marijuana concentrates such as bho ( butane hash oil ) with the steady expanding recreational mary jane legalization movement spreading across the nation more and more people now have access to concentrates than ever before.
The fact is that many long time users and those looking for a more potent thc delivery prefer alternate ways to consume their product other than the traditional combusting of cigars & rolling papers which is often not as effective as other methods such as vaporization , edible goods & of course dabbing, creating a new wave of interest in marijuana wax & oil concentrates.
Most customers are very familiar with common Dry Herb lose leaf product which typically contains 15-30% thc ( marijuanas active component ) where as with Bho wax for instance you can easily reach 80% and higher thc levels which is why these kinds of products are referred to as “concentrates” due to their very high potency only a very small amount is needed to get the job done and any new or unexperienced users with low tolerance are cautioned to go very easy and slow their first dabbing experience as to not overwhelm themselves with the potent product. There are a variety of ways to consume concentrates such as micro pen vapes and E-nail sets. Another method being Glass bong oil / Dab rigs made specifically for wax and concentrate consumption , instead of a glass bowl these kinds of bongs have exposed titanium or ceramic nails with enlarged heads to place the dab once the surface is preheated with a butane torch. Once the nail is glowing hot you simply take a small dab of concentrate and drop it onto the head of the nail instantly filling the bong with a thick white thc rich vapor that you then inhale and enjoy. The majority of first time users will be higher in one hit from a dabbing setup than they have ever been before with tradtional blunts , cigars , or papers so take it SLOW!!
Another Fast growing method of consuming wax concentrates as mentioned earlier is micro pen vaporizers. Because of their small size and discreetness as well as the overall lack of small from most concentrates , many wax users like to keep them when traveling or visiting friends or family as not to have to lug a large fragile rig around and also to be less conspicuous while in public. For many users pen vaporizers are excellent for a night on the town , bars , concerts , vacations , holidays etc or any situation that they would like to enjoy their concentrates without running off to hide out of site from family or disapproving nearby onlookers.
All in all dabbing can have many excellent benefits and with the latest wave of concentrates and supporting hardware the ability to enjoy waxes and oil products are now more in reach of the everyday Mary Jane consumer so enjoy and be safe!!
