Cannabis Extracts
Category: Extraction & Processing · Level: Intermediate
Cannabis extracts are concentrated forms of cannabis that contain high levels of cannabinoids and terpenes.
Cannabis extracts are products derived from cannabis plants that have been processed to concentrate the active compounds, primarily cannabinoids and terpenes. These extracts can come in various forms such as oils, waxes, shatter, and distillates, and are used for both medical and recreational purposes. Extracting cannabis typically involves solvents or non-solvent methods to isolate desired compounds, leading to products that can contain higher levels of THC or CBD than raw flower. Cannabis extracts offer versatility in consumption methods, including vaporization, edibles, and topical applications, making them popular among consumers seeking potent effects or specific therapeutic benefits.
