But don’t let caryophyllene’s lack of notoriety and difficult pronu ..read more

What did take us a while to get the hang of was learning how to clean a dab rig correctly. Dab rigs, like bongs, can get notoriously dirty after just a few smokes. The cannabis resin that builds up inside the glass is a tarry mess and can be extremely difficult to remove if left too long. We’ve even heard stories of dabbers using harsh chemicals like carburetor cleaner to get the resin out (don’t do that). These caustic substances can ..read more
