CBD Rosin is different from CBD Live Resin and CBD BHO Wax in that it can be produced safely at home with easy-to-use tools and equipment. C02 and BHO extraction processes involve dangerous solvents that when mishandled can cause serious explosions and fires. These processes require skilled professionals and should never be attempted at home. Because CBD Rosin does not require any solvents to make, there are no serious safety concerns or special skill sets required.
With zero hydrocarbon solvents being used to produce rosin, the only hydrocarbons present in CBD Rosin will be the natural hydrocarbon compounds that exist in hemp trichomes, carbon and hydrogen. A more genuine flavor encapsulating the full essence of the hemp starting material is to be expected when consuming CBD Rosin. This is due to the solventless extraction method that avoids contact with compounds that degrade and alter flavor in solvent based extracts.
CBD Rosin contains terpenes, and the cannabinoids present in the trichomes of the pressed hemp plant material. Trichomes are resin glands of the hemp plant, these are the mushroom-shaped structures that act as a defense mechanism in nature, protecting the plant from external threats. Fragrant terpene oils repel these threats and aid the plant in surviving the duration of the flowering cycle. Within these resin glands, the hemp plant produces CBD, THC, CBG, CBC, CBN, along with other active cannabinoids. These compounds have come to be known as significantly beneficial for many different ailments by society in general and the medical community.
Apart from CBD (cannabidiol) and THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), CBG, CBC, CBT, and CBN are also thought to be quite beneficial in their own unique ways. These ‘minor’ cannabinoids are steadily growing in popularity. Many of the CBD Rosin concentrates offered at Sauce Warehouse are high in the minor cannabinoid CBC. Studies have shown CBC (cannabichromene) and CBG (cannabigerol) to have antifungal and antimicrobial effects. Sauce Warehouse also carries many CBG concentrates such as CBG Wax & CBG Crumble. At saucewarehouse.com, all our product pages feature certificates of analysis which contain cannabinoid potency percentages for all cannabinoids that are present in each product.
Just like the full spectrum of cannabinoids present in CBD Hemp Flower, terpenes are also secreted from trichomes. Many terpenes have also been studied and found to possess antifungal properties. The now infamous entourage effect created by using multiple cannabinoids together, has also been found to grow stronger when terpenes are included in the mix. Using Full Spectrum CBD Rosin is a great way to experience this amplified entourage effect produced by using cannabinoids and terpenes together.
