Weeds carts, also known as cannabis oil cartridges, are a convenient and discreet way to enjoy high-THC or CBD extracts. These pre-filled cartridges are designed to work with 510 thread batteries and connect via an atomizer that vaporizes the oil at the push of a button.
Depending on the manufacturer’s formula, weeds carts can contain a broad spectrum of cannabinoids and terpenes (like those found in popular strains like Pineapple Express or Blueberry OG) or have more targeted levels of specific cannabinoids, such as THC or CBD. In either case, these products are often formulated to address certain health issues and deliver a high that feels just right.
There are a few things that make weeds carts different from other vaping products. First, the cartridge itself is made from a ceramic or glass material that heats up when a battery powers it. This type of heating method is considered safer than traditional combustion methods because it doesn’t release harmful byproducts like smoke or ash. Additionally, most Weeds carts come with a built-in mouthpiece that fits snugly over the atomizer to create a protective seal.
The second difference is the product that’s loaded into the cartridge itself. Some carts are filled with full-spectrum cannabis oil or extracts that have been derived from raw flower and retain the natural terpene profile of the plant. This type of oil is called “live resin” and is a highly sought-after concentrate for its potency and flavor. The other common option is a distillate cartridge that’s been stripped down to a pure THC concentrate. Distillate is often preferred for its high THC % content and its ability to be used by itself or paired with other cannabinoids to produce an entourage effect.
Both options are great for beginners or those looking to enjoy a portable, low-odor way of enjoying cannabis. The process is simple and easy to learn, making this one of the most popular ways to enjoy cannabis for both experienced and novice consumers. Cartridges are also a lot more user-friendly than other methods, such as dabbing with a rig and nail setup, because users can simply press a button and inhale a cool mist.
As with all weed products, it’s important to consume cartridges responsibly and start out slow. Over-consuming weed oil can lead to negative side effects and an unenjoyable experience, so we recommend starting with a small draw and gradually increasing the amount you inhale until you find your ideal dose. Luckily, most cartridges provide a very clear indication of how much cannabis oil is inside them, so you’ll know when to stop. This is another reason to shop with trusted retailers that offer lab testing for all of their products.
