When you’re ready to take your cannabis journey to the next level, concentrates are the way to go. Concentrates are highly potent cannabis extracts. They come in various forms, like diamonds, distillate oils, kief, live resin, live rosin, and shatter. These are typically for more experienced users due to their high potency.
Concentrates offer a pure and potent cannabis experience, often highlighting the unique terpene profiles of different strains. They can be consumed using specialized devices like dab rigs or added to flower for an extra kick.
The frosty or crystalline appearance of the cannabis flower come from small resin glands, called trichomes. Trichomes have a long stalk and bulbous head. The trichome head is the primary "factory" where the plant’s cannabinoids and terpenes are produced and stored. The lab team at Garden Remedies isolates these compounds within the tiny resin heads from the rest of the organic plant material. By stripping away the inactive plant matter and keeping only the contents of the trichome heads, we create a refined product that captures the pure, concentrated essence of the strain.
At Garden Remedies, we offer cannabis concentrates at our dispensaries in Newton, Marlborough, and Melrose, serving customers across Greater Boston, MetroWest, and the North Shore.
Cannabis concentrates are refined cannabis products that contain higher levels of THC or CBD compared to flower. Through a variety of processes, we can refine a concentrate to target a single cannabinoid or enhance a full spectrum experience. Common types include:
Because of their potency, concentrates are often chosen by experienced consumers.
Compared to other cannabis products:
Concentrates provide a more concentrated experience, which is why many customers use them in smaller doses.

Cannabis concentrates can be divided into two major groups: Solvent-Based Concentrates and Solventless Concentrates. Solvents are another substance, such as butane
Some concentrates are made using solvents like butane, propane, ethanol, or CO₂ to extract cannabinoids and terpenes.
A translucent, glass-like extract that breaks easily when handled. It’s prized for its purity and potency, delivering a clean, powerful high when dabbed or vaporized.
These concentrates have a soft, whipped texture ranging from creamy (budder) to dry and crumbly (crumble). They’re popular for their ease of use and strong, flavorful vapor.
A thick, refined liquid form of cannabis extract that’s highly versatile. Distillates are often used in vape cartridges, edibles, and tinctures due to their purity and near-flavorless potency.
Made from freshly frozen cannabis plants to preserve terpene content, resulting in rich aroma and flavor. It offers a robust, “fresh flower” experience and is often dabbed for maximum effect.
A mix of THCA crystals suspended in terpene-rich oil, known for its vibrant flavor and balanced potency. It delivers both intense aroma and strong psychoactive effects.
Pure THCA (or CBD) crystals that resemble coarse sugar or diamonds. These are the most potent concentrates available, often vaporized alone or mixed with terp sauce for enhanced flavor.
Named after its creator, this cannabis oil is high in THC. RSO is made using the whole cannabis plant (full-spectrum), retaining cannabinoids, terpenes, and more.
Solventless concentrates use mechanical or heat-based methods instead of chemical solvents. Cold water may be used to collect trichomes, but no other ingredients are used!
Produced by agitating cannabis in cold water to separate and collect trichome heads. To create “live” bubble hash for live rosin, freshly cut cannabis plants are immediately frozen to lock in the chemical state of the live trichome head. It offers a natural, full-spectrum experience and can be smoked, vaped, or pressed into rosin.
Created by applying heat and pressure to "live” bubble hash, squeezing out potent resin without solvents. It’s clean, flavorful, and favored by purists for its chemical-free extraction.
Kief is composed of loose trichome heads sifted from dried cannabis through fine screens. Kief is ypically used to boost potency in joints or bowls.
These "old-school" concentrates are the original forms of aged, solventless resin. Bubble hash is hand-worked using heat and physical pressure. This process creates a protective outer layer that allows the hash to age gracefully, deepening its aroma and mellowing the flavor over time.
