Handcore OG Shatter

OVERVIEW

Born in California to some mysterious breeders, the Hardcore OG is an indica dominant hybrid (80% indica/20% sativa) strain created as a cross between the hugely popular Big Bud X DJ Short Blueberry strains. With a delicious flavor reminiscent of its Blueberry parentage and an insanely high average THC level between 24-28%, Hardcore OG tastes as good as it feels to smoke! The Hardcore OG high is not for the faint of heart – it comes quick, with a euphoric cerebral stimulation that leaves your mind completely pain free with a slight sense of blissful energy that doesn’t cause anxiety or stress

USES OF STRAIN

Medical users who are plagued by constant pain view Hardcore OG as a godsend as it numbs them from head to toe. Equally as effective for mental concerns, stress, anxiety, depression, and bipolar are all within its wheelhouse, allowing users to finally stop the incessant circle of negative thoughts running through their minds. Those who have a hard time falling asleep or staying that way will love what this strain has to offer.

What Are Cannabis Extracts

Cannabis extracts are created by passing a solvent, such as butane, hexane, isopropyl, or CO2, through cured or fresh cannabis material that has been thoroughly ground. This produces a thick, usually gold or amber-colored cannabis oil full of the plant’s active chemical compounds.

Next, the solvent is purged from the shatter oil using heat and vacuum. The resulting cannabis concentrate is then processed into one of a number of potential forms, including wax, crumble, honeycomb, sap, budder, live resin, and of course, shatter.

How to Use Shatter

Like other marijuana extracts, shatter is usually vaporized or “dabbed” by consumers from a vape pen or specially equipped water pipe called a dab rig. With a potency ranging between 50-90 percent cannabinoids by weight, marijuana extracts like shatter are a fast, efficient, smoke-free way to consume cannabis.

To use shatter in a vape pen, you’ll want to be sure you have one that is specifically designed to be used with marijuana extracts like wax or shatter. These vapes have an atomizer (the vape’s heating element) that will rapidly heat, bringing your shatter to its vaporization point.

To vape shatter, you’ll add your shatter to your vape’s heating chamber, as you would similar marijuana extracts. As the atomizer heats your shatter, it will quickly melt and turn to vapor, which you will then inhale from the vape’s mouthpiece.

Dabbing is the more traditional way to use marijuana shatter. When dabbing, pieces of shatter are applied or “dabbed” onto a hot surface like a hot titanium or ceramic nail or quartz bucket. The shatter will rapidly vaporize upon contact with the hot surface. As you dab your shatter onto the hot surface, you will inhale the vapor through the dab rig’s water chamber and into your lungs.
