Weed Concentrates
Shatter. Wax. Live resin and rosin. Sap. Cannabis concentrates are refined extracts made from cannabis plant material that, as the name implies, deliver a concentrated amount of THC. The terpene profile of each of our concentrates provides unique flavor, aroma and effect. While we do carry some third-party products, most of the concentrates you’ll find on our shelves have been processed by our partners such as CSC, Nomad and Green Dot. As the saying goes: If you want something done right, then grow it yourself. So we have our very own flower processed by some of the top brands in the industry to guarantee our customers get the very best product.
Award-winning options
With the help of our processing partners, we’re fortunate to grow and produce award-winning concentrates in the Colorado cannabis industry. We’ve won awards with the THC Classic Showdown multiple years running for our live resin, wax and shatter. And with Nomad’s help and Option’s flower, we took home the first place trophy for flash frozen live resin in 2021.
For people unfamiliar with concentrates, deciding which type to try may seem like a daunting task. By creating crystals and sauce from flash-frozen product during processing, live resin is one of the higher-end concentrates available in the industry. The process preserves the terpenes and packs a flavorful punch every time. Wax and shatter are two other popular varieties, processed using a solvent. The key difference between wax and shatter is that wax has been whipped to create a soft, buttery consistency whereas shatter is a thin sheet that “shatters” into smaller pieces to use for dabbing.
Avid dabbers may prefer a high-quality solventless concentrate. We also carry a limited variety of third-party processed live rosin and bubble hash from The Flower Collective for the concentrate connoisseur. Bubble hash is a great concentrate to smoke when using limited cannabis accessories because it can be rolled into a pre-roll alongside flower or used as a bowl-topper to enhance THC.
POTENTIAL RISKS OF WEED CONCENTRATES
While weed concentrates provide intense effects due to their high levels of THC, it’s important to be aware of the potential risks associated with their use. These include:
Increased Potency
Cannabis concentrates contain significantly higher levels of THC compared to traditional flower. This increased potency can lead to a much stronger and faster onset of effects, which may be overwhelming for inexperienced users or those with low tolerance. It’s crucial to start with a small amount and gradually increase to find your comfort level.
Enhanced Side Effects
The higher THC concentration in weed concentrates can amplify common side effects of cannabis use, such as anxiety, paranoia, dizziness, and impaired coordination. Users may also experience a more pronounced impact on cognitive functions, affecting memory, attention, and judgment.
Risk of Overconsumption
Due to their potency, it is easier to overconsume cannabis concentrates, leading to intense and uncomfortable experiences. Symptoms of overconsumption can include severe anxiety, nausea, vomiting, and in rare cases, hallucinations or panic attacks. Always use concentrates in moderation and be mindful of dosage.
Tolerance and Dependency
Regular use of high-potency concentrates can lead to an increased tolerance, meaning more product is needed to achieve the same effects. This can potentially lead to dependency and withdrawal symptoms such as irritability, insomnia, and cravings when trying to reduce use.
Respiratory Issues
Although many users prefer dabbing concentrates for a cleaner experience compared to smoking flower, inhaling any form of smoke or vapor can still impact respiratory health over time. Consider using alternative methods, such as edibles or tinctures, if you have concerns about lung health.
