If you’re new to the world of cannabis then the term “710 day” maybe something new to you. Well, you’re not alone. While April 20th might be considered a world-wide weed holiday, July 10th is for a special type of consumer.
Let us walk you through 7/10, what makes it different that 4/20, why people celebrate it and more.
Is 7/10 just 4/20 With More Steps?
Trying to find the true origin of 7/10 day is going to be harder that finding a bitcoin. There is no real consensus as to how the day came about. Also called Oil Day (710 upside down), the day is dedicated to those who dab.
Dabs are concentrated doses of cannabis that are made by extracting THC and other cannabinoids using a solvent like butane or carbon dioxide, resulting in sticky oils.
Also called wax or shatter, THC concentrate can give you an intense high. A rather new way to consume, how the concept of 7/10 day is still up in the air.
Theleafonline did some major legwork in trying to connect the dots as to who came up with the concept. Even after all their digging, the came up with more questions than answers.
Regardless of knowing who came up with the concept, 7/10 has been celebrated since it’s birth by smokers hitting a dab rig and the unique way to consume is slowly growing in popularity.
How To Consume Concentrate
Unlike flowers, THC concentrate has to be used in a dab rig. A small glob of concentrate is flash vaporized using a blow-torch to create a quicker, more intense hit for the smoker.
Dabs are not for the rookie smoker. Sometime, it’s not good for veteran smokers.
Not everyone can get their hands on concentrate, so the experience isn’t as popular as other forms of cannabis consumption.
But if you get the chance to hit a dab on 7/10, inhale and brace yourself.
