Cannabis wax, a type of concentrate, is a potent product enjoyed by many seasoned users. Using wax can seem intimidating at first, but with the right approach, it’s a straightforward and rewarding experience.
1. Understanding Wax: Wax is a cannabis concentrate known for its sticky, wax-like texture. It’s high in THC, making it more potent than traditional flower. This potency requires mindful consumption, especially for beginners.
2. Tools Needed:
Dab Rig: A water pipe designed for concentrates.
Dabber Tool: A small, metal tool for handling wax.
Torch: To heat the nail on the dab rig.
E-Nails or Vape Pens: For a more convenient, user-friendly experience.
3. The Process:
Dabbing: Heat the nail with a torch until it’s red hot. Let it cool for about 20-30 seconds to prevent burning. Use the dabber to place a small amount of wax on the nail while inhaling through the rig.
Vaporizing: Vape pens compatible with wax offer a portable and easy option. Simply load a small amount of wax into the chamber and inhale after activation.
4. Dosage and Safety: Start with a small dab, about the size of a grain of rice. Since wax is highly potent, it’s best to pace yourself. Stay hydrated and in a comfortable setting.
Wax can deliver intense effects, from euphoria to deep relaxation. Always store it in a cool, dark place to preserve its potency and quality.
