the concentrates issue
40
SOLVENTLESS Solventless extraction methods are as old as the tradition of Cannabis consumption itself. The first form of Cannabis concentrate, charas, was hash that was removed from one’s hands after harvesting the plant. Today’s techniques are far more sophisticated, but still utilize very basic principles to create flavorful and potent Cannabis extracts. The two most popular styles of solventless concentrates are the old school bubble hash, which is primarily used as a bowl topper, and hash rosin, which has skyrocketed in popularity over the last year.

I was very happy to see some hash rosin making its way back onto the Maryland medical market. Opening the jar unleashed a nice, wet-looking golden rosin, with a strong blend of piney, citrusy and fuel-like terpenes. The exhale had the distinctly clean taste that good hash rosin is known for, with the terps coming through just as strong as they smelled.@NATURESHERITAGECANNABISCO

For classic hash, the options in Maryland are few and far. Vireo is one of the only companies producing this product, and I was lucky enough to try Hurlock hash, Gelat. OG hash, and Gorilla Cookies hash. My favorite was the Gelat. OG, which was over 5% terpenes. Topping off a few bong packs with this hash put me in an extremely mellow mood – and relieved my back pain. @1937CANNABIS
Kief can be a great first step for people looking to move closer to extracts from smoking flower. This gram was presented in a nice puck, and I stuck my dabber in and dug into this blend of sandy goodness. The smell and flavor were woody, earthy and piney. When I’m looking for a nice little pick-me-up that is a little stronger than flower, I reach for the kief. @NATURESHERITAGECANNABISCO
This hash was great for topping bowls, sprinkling into joints, and enjoying full hash rips. The flavor is like an elevated flower smoking experience, getting some of the best parts of the plant in a puff. The smell can be described as a peppery mix with lemon and diesel fuel notes. My anxiety was nowhere to be found when smoking on this bubble. @NATURESHERITAGECANNABISCO

FECO stands for Full Extract Cannabis Oil. One of the greatest benefits of medicating with FECO is receiving the full spectrum of cannabinoids from the Cannabis plant. While other extracts may leave out the wide range of cannabinoids, the medical benefits for some are unparalleled with these whole plant products.

G WAGON RSO By Verano
DARK CHOCOLATE DISCOS
For the most painful of nights, I turn to RSO for relief. I like to empty about half of a turmeric capsule and fill it up with about .1 grams of RSO. About one hour after ingesting the capsule, I felt my pain start to melt away as I melted into the couch. I also noticed a strong uptick in my appetite in the following hours. @VERANOBRANDS
Discos from Evermore have been a long-standing favorite of Maryland’s patient community. I was very excited to see them bringing back the chocolate Discos for both their flavor and potency. I only needed one piece to feel significant effects and found them most useful before bed for pain relief and a restful night’s sleep. @EVERMORE_BRANDS

MANGO MOUNTAIN CBD RSO

When dealing with serious anxiety, CBD RSO seems to be one of the only things that can make it go away. During an extremely anxious day I consumed .2 grams of this oil, and within two hours was feeling like I could finally take a breath of fresh air. Kudos to gLeaf for bringing such an important product to market. @GLEAFMD

One of my first and favorite companies to purchase RSO from is Nature’s Heritage. The thickness of Nature’s Heritage RSO stands out above some other companies, which is a good sign when purchasing this product. After taking about a tenth of a gram, I felt little to no pain and was in a perfect state to fall asleep easily. @ NATURESHERITAGECANNABISCO
