How is Dab made?
Dabs or the term “dabbing” is referring to the inhalation process of cannabis that is in a concentrate form. Cannabis concentrates carry broad flavor profiles and this is one of the most attractive aspects about using this form as cannabis. Vaporizing the concentrated cannabis enhances and releases the flavors that naturally occur in cannabis plants.
How to Smoke Dabs
How To Dab Concentrates are typically “dabbed” or smoked using high heat instead of a flame or through a vaporizer or water pipe.
Carts are also a popular form of smoking concentrates, as it is easy to control your dosage and is extremely discreet, allowing you to smoke on the go.
Dabbing, on the other hand, is a more involved process where you heat a specialized glass bowl on a water pipe (known collectively as a “Dab Rig”) to extreme temperatures using a torch, and then placing the oil into the bowl where it is capped, vaporized, and then smoked through the bong.
There are portable dab rigs that do the same thing as a traditional dab rig, but the temperature can be controlled and can be used on the go.
It is recommended to start with a very small amount (maybe even less than the size of a grain of rice) until you understand the full effect concentrates will have on you.
Strain Info:
Wedding Cake is distinguished by its very large and colorful flowers. The chunky, globular nuggets adhere in a dense, indica-typical bud structure, with tightly curling leaves. The leaves themselves are an earthy green to brown. They are threaded through with orange hairs, which are actually pistils, meant to catch pollen from fertilizing male plants. A high concentration of trichomes gives this strain its high THC levels as well as an incredibly sticky texture. Wedding Cake’s buds are as aromatically striking as they are visually impressive. When properly cured, they smell vegetal: damp and mossy with just a hint of citrus. Hanging out underneath is a skunky funk that betrays the influence of grandparent strain OG Kush, while breaking up or grinding the buds gives off notes of spicy sandalwood. When combusted, Wedding Cake may be harsh, stinging smokers’ sinuses or throats with its acrid smoke. It tastes sweet and rich on the exhale, with a super subtle creamy mouthfeel that some might compare to the taste of cake.me might compare to cake.
This strain’s high starts relatively quickly, taking hold primarily in the head. Users may find their thoughts to be more fast-paced or intense, and may perceive their surroundings more acutely. In the right set and setting, this change in thinking is accompanied by feelings of giddiness or euphoria. Less than an hour into the high, Wedding Cake’s indica side kicks in. Smokers might feel increased warmth and a pleasant heaviness that spreads through the spine and limbs. Even in the midst of this sedation, though, cerebral stimulation continues, allowing users to feel uniquely “tuned in” to their surroundings. This holistic combination of mental and physical effects lends itself to complex activities like creating art, exercising, and even sex. As the high progresses, so does this strain’s body high -- after a few bowls, smokers may find themselves couchlocked.
