What is Dab / Dabbing?

Dabbing is the practice of vaporizing a small amount of cannabis concentrate on a heated surface and inhaling the resulting vapor.

A "dab" is a single dose of concentrate—such as wax, shatter, live resin, or rosin—flash-vaporized on a hot nail or in an electronic rig and inhaled. Because concentrates are far more potent than flower, dabbing delivers a strong, fast-acting effect. It is favored by experienced consumers and is closely associated with the 710 holiday.
