Pot Luck – Diamonds (1g) Glazed

THC Diamonds look a lot like the diamonds you’re already familiar with, hence the name. They are THC crystals made when live resin is extracted from cannabis using a cold-extraction method and pressure. However, the diamonds that form aren’t THC yet, they’re pure THCa crystals, and they check in at 97-99% THCa. The other 1-3% of a THC diamond is terpenes and other cannabinoids, making these diamonds the most potent and pure extract product on the market. Each one varies in size from a grain of sand up to several-gram rocks.

THCa is an inactive cannabinoid. At a fundamental level, THCa is a non-psychoactive form of THC that needs to be heated up in order to transform into the stuff that gets you high. That’s why diamonds are typically smoked in a dab rig or vaporizer. Joints and bongs don’t burn hot enough to make this transformation.

Diamonds are sold in a few different ways though, which is why “THC diamonds” is considered more of an umbrella term. They form in a few different ways and vary in potency based on how they’re extracted and processed afterwards. Some diamonds are sold in a saucy, high-terpene extract typically labeled as “diamonds” or “diamond sauce” while others are sold as diamonds alone with no sauce, called “THCa Diamonds”. Sometimes they’re even labelled as pure THC, but they’re still inactive THCa that needs to be subjected to heat to get you high. Regardless of how they’re labelled and sold in the dispensary, all diamonds are crystals made of pure THCa.

How Potent are THC Diamonds?

As we’ve stated, THC diamonds are the most potent cannabis concentrates out there testing in just under 100% THCa. Most people use diamonds to help manage treatment-resistant medical conditions, though they’ve become insanely popular in recreational markets for their powerful effects that make for a pleasant, flavorful, and heady high. THC diamond wax is so potent that the high can linger for hours at a time, which is a lot longer than the experience from flower alone or even other lesser concentrates like shatter or wax.

How to dab crumble and other cannabis concentrates?

Dabbing is by far the most popular way to consume concentrates and extracts. Because concentrates are more potent than flower, dabbing is known for producing a much stronger range of effects. Additionally, because dabbing uses high temperatures to vaporize cannabis rather than burning it, the flavors and aromas you get from this method tend to be much cleaner and more robust.

How to store Diamonds?

Bottom line: Store Diamonds in a cool, dark place in an airtight container.
