How Do You Infuse a Pre-Roll? 🤔💨

- Kitchen
- Lab
There are lots of ways to infuse pre-rolls, depending on what you’re after—flavor, potency, or ease of production. Here’s a quick breakdown: 🔹 Hand-Rolled Wax/Hash – The classic DIY method. You roll wax or hash directly onto the joint. It gives great flavor and a strong entourage effect, but it takes some effort—and it tends to run when smoked. 🔹 Isolate + Flower – This is the go-to for mass production. You just mix THC isolate with ground flower and roll it up. It’s high in THC, but not much flavor or entourage effect unless terpenes are added. Super efficient,…
What the Heck Is Decarboxylation? (And Why It Matters)
- Dispensaries
- Kitchen
- Lab
Decarboxylation is a key process that changes the texture and effects of cannabis extracts. During this stage, thick, sticky wax—similar to tar—turns into a smoother, oilier substance. It’s still sticky, but much more fluid and easier to work with. This transformation is essential to make the extract usable for vaping, eating, or applying topically. What’s happening on a chemical level is the conversion of THC-A (a non-psychoactive compound) into THCΔ9—the compound that creates the “high.” Heat triggers this conversion, unlocking the psychoactive potential of the cannabis. In the photo, you can see us removing the wax from the baking sheets…
Indica, Hybrid, Sativa: What’s the Difference?
- Dispensaries
- Indoor Grow
- Outdoor Grow
Most people think of the classifications of indica, sativa, and hybrid cannabis as a description of the high that they each give. Usually, cannabis enjoyers expect an “energetic high” from a sativa, a “lazy high” from an indica strain, and somewhere in-between for a hybrid. This expectation is a bit misguided, and can lead to some disappointed consumers when purchasing a sativa (for example) and being surprised with an incredibly sedative and lethargic effect. In reality these classifications are focused on the physical growth traits and geographic origins of the two different varieties, (Cannabis Sativa and Cannabis Indica) and not…
Terpenes Matter: The Real Reason Live Resin Reigns Supreme
- Dispensaries
- Lab
What makes live resin better than cured resin or regular wax? Short answer: It’s all about the terpenes. Terpenes are what give cannabis its smell and flavor. They’re like the essential oils of the plant—and they play a big role in how it tastes, smells, and even how it feels when you use it. Here’s the difference: Cured resin and wax come from cannabis buds that have been dried and cured. That drying process causes some of the terpenes to break down or disappear. Live resin, on the other hand, is made from buds that are frozen right after harvest—before…

Clone Wars: What’s New in Cloning
- Indoor Grow
- Outdoor Grow
There are many ways to take clones from a cannabis plant, and new methods are popping up constantly. One of the most tried and true methods of cloning is to use individual clone domes to sustain the high humidity environment needed for rooting. While clone domes do the job pretty well, it can be extremely time consuming to maintain all of these separate domes in a commercial facility. To address the common issues of clone domes, Athena recently developed their VPDomes. “Achieving the optimal VPD for plants allows them to properly transpire, uptake nutrients, uptake CO2, and prevent stress….
