Cannabinoid-rich rosins are one of the more intriguing recent trends. They are among the leading aromatic cannabis extracts on the market, taking advantage of the potent effects of cannabis-derived terpenes. Discover what rosin is, how to smoke rosin, and why it’s the cannabis industry’s future.
WHAT IS ROSIN? HOW DO YOU SMOKE ROSIN?
Rosin is concentrated cannabis concentrate able to achieve THC concentrations of up to 80% and up. Phil ‘Soilgrown’ Salazar, a cannabis connoisseur, made it famous after using it in his 2015 video series. However, according to some sources, this process of extraction dates back to the 1990s and early 2000s.
Because it does not use solvents during extraction, rosin is often considered purer than other cannabis concentrates. In contrast to BHO extractions such as shatter, Rosin will not have any trace PPM of solvents as none were used in extraction.
Rosin is made by heating and pressing trichomes washed from plant material, such as 90U hash, rather than using solvents like butane or CO2 to extract it. Terpenes and cannabinoids are well-balanced in the whole-plant extract produced by this method. Both potent and delectable, courtesy of its high terpene concentration!
HOW DO YOU USE ROSIN?
Rosin is a versatile concentrate that can be used in several ways. The following are the five most frequent methods for preparing and using it!
DABBING IT
When you dab concentrates, it highlights terpenes, allowing you to appreciate the variety of fragrances and flavors present in each strain.
VAPING IT
You may load your rosin into your vaporizer and vape if it’s intended to work with cannabis concentrates. Make sure your vaporizer is safe for use with extracts before smoking it. Using a dry plant vape to vape rosin can result in gluey and irreversible harm!
ROLLING IT
You can also crush rosin and wrap it into joints or blunts, which may seem counterintuitive given its sticky nature. To avoid a sticky mess, remember to dehydrate it first. Alternatively, you can heat it and spread it across your rolling paper using an applicator tool. The extra adhesion may make rolling easier for you!
ADDING IT TO YOUR BONG OR BOWL
You can also sprinkle rosin on top of your bowl to give it a little extra flavor and kick. When heated, you’ll find that it turns into a shiny oil that coats your bud and melts into your bowl. It’s best to be cautious with Rosin and keep it low and slow. The potency of your joint or bowl will skyrocket if you add a concentrate to it.
BAKING INTO EDIBLES
Finally, you can use rosin to bake with to make cannabis edibles. This will add a more hash like flavor to your edibles and could also increase the terpenes found within them. Also because the edibles are being infused with rosin, which is solventless, the edibles will be solventless as well!
