In the ever-evolving landscape of cannabis culture, enthusiasts and connoisseurs are continually finding new reasons to celebrate their beloved plant. While April 20th (4/20) has long been recognized as the unofficial cannabis holiday, another significant date has gained prominence among cannabis enthusiasts—July 10th, or simply “710.” This special day, often referred to as “Oil Day” or “Dab Day,” is dedicated to celebrating cannabis concentrates, specifically those made from oils and extracts. At Flora Terra, we’re excited to embrace the spirit of 710 and invite our valued community to join us in commemorating this cannabis-infused occasion.
What is 710?
For those unfamiliar with 710, it may seem like a random assortment of numbers. However, when flipped upside down, “710” reads as “OIL” — a clever reference to the cannabis concentrates that are the highlight of this holiday. While 4/20 has historically focused on the consumption of cannabis flower, 710 shines a spotlight on the diverse world of cannabis extracts, including oils, shatters, waxes, budders, and more. This unique celebration allows cannabis enthusiasts to explore the concentrated forms of the plant, which offer potent and often flavorful experiences.
Cannabis concentrates, the stars of the 710 celebrations, are products derived from the extraction of cannabinoids and terpenes from the cannabis plant. These concentrates are created through various methods that separate the desirable compounds from the plant material, resulting in highly potent and concentrated forms of cannabis.
Consuming cannabis concentrates may seem intimidating to those who are new to the world of concentrates. However, with a few essential tools and techniques, you can enjoy the full potential of these potent products. Here are some popular methods for consuming concentrates:
- Dabbing: Dabbing is a common method for consuming concentrates that involves a specialized setup. The primary equipment needed for dabbing includes a dab rig, a nail (typically made of quartz, titanium, or ceramic), a butane torch or enail for heating the nail, a dab tool, and a carb cap. To consume a dab, heat the nail until it’s hot and then use the dab tool to place a small amount of concentrate onto the hot surface. As the concentrate vaporizes, inhale the resulting vapor through the dab rig, using the carb cap to control airflow. Dabbing offers a quick onset of effects and intense flavors.
- Vaporizing: Vaporizers, also known as vape pens or dab pens, are portable devices designed for concentrate consumption. They typically feature a heating element, a chamber for loading the concentrate, and a mouthpiece for inhalation. To use a vaporizer, pack a small amount of concentrate into the chamber, activate the device according to the manufacturer’s instructions, and inhale the vapor produced. Vaporizing concentrates offer a discreet and convenient method of consumption, with precise temperature control for a customized experience.
- Pre-filled Cartridges: Pre-filled cartridges are popular options for those seeking convenience and simplicity. These cartridges come pre-loaded with cannabis oil and are compatible with battery-powered vape pens. Simply attach the cartridge to the battery, inhale from the mouthpiece, and enjoy the smooth vapor. Pre-filled cartridges are available in a variety of strains and flavors, offering a hassle-free way to consume concentrates on the go.
Remember, responsible consumption is paramount when it comes to concentrates. Start with low doses, especially if you are new to concentrates, and gradually increase as needed. Be mindful of the potency of the concentrate you’re using, as it can vary significantly. If you’re new to concentrates, ask one of our knowledgeable budtenders for help!
