First Dabs ever...Free 8 Grams of Shatter. Need advice from Pros
#27043416 - 11/17/20 07:52 AM (3 years, 7 months ago) |

Just left the Pot Shop with 8 Grams of Wax/Shatter. 5 grams of electric lemon at 75% THC, 3 gram Grand Daddy Purp at 79% THC.
I had earned a 1000 points at the weed store which gave me either an ounce of flower for $10 or 8 grams of concentrate for $1. I chose the concentrate. Right choice?
For the past 6 months Ive been vaping oil carts so I couldnt bring myself to take the free flower. Gotta go buy a cheap rig now
It's SUPER cool how they do that with points. I earned that in like 2 months...my old dealer never gave me a free ounce every 2 months

I would've chosen the ounce of flower. I think dabbing is overrated, personally.

I'm curious how people will value the two.
I'm sure in some Illegal Mid-West States high grade Wax is hard to come by and expensive.

Good concentrate is worth between 70-100/g out here by philly. You can pretty much name your price. Also u donโt need a dab rig. Buy a nectar collector. Heat up with torch. Dab out of containers they came in. Simple

Cheap rig and torch suggestions I suppose. Any rookie mistakes to avoid burning myself?

Thats like lit nearly equivalent in dabs u get slightly less thc with the dabs as the equivalency is little less than eighth like 3.25 or something very close to that. Thsts how dispensaries do things its based on thc equivalency. But remember dabs are typically more expensive being more concentrated and processed. U have to grow the ounce then make the 8 grams of oil. The dabs sound fire ur gonna just be dabbing from now on when ur 8th grade stoned for the next month with ur first time with a quarter of dabz. Get a quality rig and u won't be second guessing.

Get some type cheap klein rig or something or something with nice perc. Smaller is better with dab rigs to a certain point. Torches u dont have to go to crazy cuz the all work and they also all break eventually

Also to avoid burning urself dont touch anything hot. I also recommend downloading an app called errl's dab timer its a great timer app for dabs. That and just a nice double wall full weld quartz banger and vortex cap and ull be chugging like a champ.

I'm in an illegal Midwest state they have been going for $100/eighth. Never tried dabbling, I use oil to make edibles.

By my figuring, for an oz of weed to have the same THC content as the shatter you got it would be about 22%. That ignores the extra $9 you would pay for the flower though.
Here the concentrates on the legal market are pretty new and prices for the higher THC stuff are steep.

Personally I find dabs and other extracts to be very one dimensional with the high and very short lasting, leading to a quick build up of tolerance.
Top shelf flower that is strain rotated is much more enjoyable and sustainable for the habit. Once you dab for awhile flower won't get you off.

I fuckin luv dabs you made the right choice dude. A gram of good dabs can last as long as a quarter of flower and tastes and feels better in my opinion than smoking bud.
I developed an allergy to flower somehow n dabs help me bypass that allergy which is a random thing I'm super grateful for. Significantly easier on the lungs too in my opinion as long as youre not sitting round blasting quarter gram piping hot dabs each time like some folks do.

Niiiiice 
Try not to get too cheap of a rig. You will have a better experience with a nice rig. This one cost about $45, works really nice:

It has a bucket banger piece attachment, my favorite type.
You need three things for taking nice dabs: a metal tool, a proper microtorch and the dab rig.
If u can, get a small propane torch. If not, get the biggest butane lighter you can find. The one I have pictured is a bit too small for my taste. Its a lot easier with a larger torch.
Personally, I like to smoke flower then smoke dabs at night to end the day with an extra flavor of high.

These mobius knock offs are really great too bad they've like tripled and quadrupled in price over the past few years. The other knock off motherships and sasquatch on the site are really nice quality too

I know people will disagree with me, but I believe dabs deliver a cleaner high.
