I Grow Super Clean Cannabis
and, so far, there doesn't happen to be an extraction process which fully preserves the terpene profile from flowers.
Once You've Had Truly Awesomely Clean Cannabis
you'll always be looking to pack a bowl of flowers, right after multiple dabs. There truly isn't anything like it.
That Being Said, I Understand the Extract Fad
because the majority of the cannabis being grown is just disgusting quality. People hand me the best, of the best of the best they can find/grow and it's nothing like the quality I can produce.
Growers have handed me clones of strains they're familiar with and when I hand them flowers from it, they don't even recognize it as what they're also growing. Substantially higher quality in terpene and cannabinoid expression, with extremely low contamination levels.
The smoke is soft, cool in temperature, packed with aroma and flavor and doesn't have any more than a tiny hint of "burnt plant" flavor to it. A lot of people are unable to detect that low of a taste level. grin It tastes like smoking very clean hash. ;)
Yes, when the generally available cannabis quality goes up you're going to see a reduction in dabbing/vaping extracts. :)
Talk about breaking it down! Thank you so much for your input! Cheers and Happy Tokes!
My Pleasure
the sooner everyone is aware, the better the quality will be overall. :)
