Dabbing is a method of consuming cannabis concentrates that involves heating a small amount of the concentrate on a hot surface, then inhaling the resulting vapor.
At Lifted Meds, we offer a variety of cannabis concentrates for dabbing, available at both our Kalispell and Missoula locations. Whether you're an experienced dabber or just exploring concentrates for the first time, it's important to understand what you're using.
There are several types of cannabis concentrates that can be used for dabbing, including THC-a diamonds, live resin, dry shatter, and rosin.
-
THC-a diamonds: These are crystalline formations that contain extremely high levels of THC, often reaching 99% purity. They are made by isolating and purifying the cannabinoid THC-a, then allowing it to crystallize. The resulting crystals can be quite large and resemble diamonds or other precious stones.

-
Live resin: This is a type of concentrate that is made from fresh cannabis plants that have been frozen immediately after harvesting. Because the plant is frozen, the terpenes and other volatile compounds are preserved, resulting in a product with a strong flavor and aroma.
-
Dry shatter: This is a type of concentrate that is made by extracting the cannabinoids and terpenes from dried cannabis flowers. The resulting product is a brittle, translucent sheet that can be broken into smaller pieces or "shattered."
-
Rosin: This is a type of concentrate that is made by ice water extraction, heat and pressure from whole plant fresh frozen flowers. The heat and pressure cause the cannabinoids and terpenes to separate from the hash material and collect on a surface, where they can be scraped up and collected. Rosin is a solventless product, making it a popular choice for those who prefer solventless concentrate. Want a deeper look? Here's what solventless mean in cannabis.
Dabs are extremely potent, and the effects can be much stronger than traditional cannabis flower or edibles. If you're new to dabbing. it's best to start small and go slow. Make sure your equipment is properly set up and always purchase from a licensed dispensary like Lifted Meds Kalispell or Lifted Meds Missoula to ensure you're getting safe, tested products.
