A Fuller, Rawer, More Zen Dab Experience

Low-heat-pressed trichomes from ice water hash, created using a custom-made press, Legion of Bloom’s “Raw-Zen” is a bit more elevated than most rosins out there. I can certainly taste—and feel—the difference. This concentrate completely curbed my craving to smoke flower, which I admit I normally begin to desire after dabbing. It’s mustard, golden brown, thin, bendable and perfectly round. Placed up to the light for inspection, it is clear and particle-free.

In this column, one of the metrics that we use to judge product quality is “discretion.” That attention to avoiding attention is often an important concern for medical cannabis users, even those with a valid prescription. No matter your legal status, the less involvement cops and the courts have in your business the better.

It’s Legion of Bloom’s Time in the Sun

The Northern California collective of sun-worshipping cannabis experts Legion of Bloom are collecting legions of extremely loyal fans. When you get to know them, it’s easy to see why. The first clue you’re dealing with a different kind of collective? They’re conscious cultivators and firm believers in whole plant medicine. “Our genetics are properly selected and cared for, while each step of the cultivation process is fine-tuned to be as eco-friendly and environmentally savvy as possible,” said Legion, who speak as a network or collective community, not as individuals. (That would be the second clue.)

THINKING ABOUT GETTING A VAPE PEN? QUALITY MATTERS!

Now – I’m not saying these dose pens are the end-all for cannabis vapes. There are some less expensive cartridge companies out there who are really doing the thing. For basic indica/sativa/hybrid varieties, go with W Vapes, or the PAX Era Pods from Bloom Farms. If you are looking for strain specific medicine then Legion of Bloom, Jetty Extracts or FlavRX cartridges should definitely be your go-to.

Review: Fruit Slab’s Mango Fruit Leather

When I first opened the stay fresh packaging, it was difficult not to compare the appearance of these delectable little pools of congealed mango to dabs. In fact, I recently heard a story of a friend of a friend attempting to dab his fruit slabs. I can only imagine the gooey mess left behind from that adventure.Infused with a hybrid extract from Medical Cannabis Cup winners, Legion of Bloom, Fruit Slabs come in two natural flavors, OG Mango and Mango Maui Wowie. Both have a mango base, but the Maui Wowie includes rice-sized pieces of coconut that give the flavor a little twist.
