Concentrates are cannabis products produced with a solvent to isolate active compounds or are manually concentrated using sieves or pressure. Concentrates have high potencies when compared with flower products and require specialized equipment to consume directly. Concentrates are best enjoyed through vaporization and usually have an immediate onset. On average the effects of concentrates last 1-3 hours with the typical peak experience occurring within 30 minutes.
Wax is a potent expression of cannabis extract which is made using a solvent and then purging that solvent, which leaves a waxy concentration of cannabinoids, terpenes and other cannabis compounds. Wax is typically used with specialty equipment in a process known as dabbing. Examples of wax include crumble, sauces, budder, badder and sugar.
