CBD Cannabis resin is a light to dark brown, sticky substance found on the clear/amber trichomes of a cannabis plant. Trichomes show on a female plant’s flowers at the end of its life cycle when the plant is fully matured. These trichomes produce the medical properties and sugars we all love so much. Resin is considered the most valuable part of the plant, resin carries every cannabinoid compound the plant has to offer. Products containing resin are called CBD concentrates.

How CBD resin is made varies depending on the type of resin. There are many different techniques that range from a simple application of pressure and heat to complex processes requiring expensive lab equipment.

Live resin is a concentrate, it is very high in terpenes and other cannabis material. CBD users who enjoy a strong aroma along with more potent medical properties tend to prefer resin than other types of CBD. Preserving trichomes and terpenes in live resin will help keep the original cannabis properties intact. Terpenes are what give cannabis its full-bodied aroma.
