True of False: Flowers that are classified into Sativa, Indica, Hybrid are processed into edibles that carry the same euphoric properties (ie. Energizing, or couch-lock)
Truth is - it depends on who ya ask!! There are a ton of scientific studies that insist sativa, indica, and hybrid strains have no bearing on how the edible will make you feel!
However, loads of patients will attest to the opposite! What matters most is that they are seeing medicinal benefit regardless of what/how it is classified :)
_____ is a crude oil traditionally used as a topical to treat melanoma. You may also see it consumed orally, usually with food, which provides a plethora of medicinal benefits. Ohio, however, has notoriously classified this oil as a concentrate for vaporization despite it's well known origin story.

What is the difference between Live concentrate/vape extractions and Cured concentrate/vape extractions?
Live extractions - Take place while the plant is still living. The full matured cannabis plant is harvested and then instantly frozen to sub-zero temps. Locking in all of the water, terpenes, and natural compounds found within the plant during it's peak life cycle.
Cured extractions - Take place after the plant has been harvested and hung for "drying" purposes and then introduced to the extraction process. Much like aging grapes for fine wine :)
________ are the aromatic compounds that determine the scent of many flowers and herbs. They bestow cannabis with its distinctive odor and contribute to its flavor
What are Terpenes?
This is a table top vaporizer known for it's sleek design, proficient concentrate vaporization capabilities, and it's "teepee" like shape. This device will never over heat your THC beyond the perfect activation temperature
