What is 7/10 day? What It Means, Why It Matters, and How to Choose the Right Cannabis Concentrate
Every year on July 10 (7/10), cannabis enthusiasts celebrate 710 Day—a holiday dedicated to cannabis concentrates.
If you're wondering where the name comes from, it's actually pretty clever: turn 710 upside down and it spells "OIL," a nod to the cannabis oils and extracts that inspired the holiday.
While 4/20 celebrates cannabis as a whole, 710 shines a spotlight on concentrates like live resin, live rosin, hash, wax, and premium vape cartridges. Whether you're already a fan or just curious about trying concentrates for the first time, 710 is the perfect opportunity to learn what makes these products unique.
What Are Cannabis Concentrates?
Cannabis concentrates are products that contain a higher concentration of cannabinoids and terpenes than traditional flower. By separating the most desirable compounds from the cannabis plant, concentrates deliver a more potent and flavorful experience in a much smaller amount.
Some of the most popular concentrate products include:
Live Resin – Extracted from freshly frozen cannabis to preserve the plant's natural terpene profile, resulting in bold flavor and strain-specific effects.
Live Rosin – A solventless concentrate made using only heat and pressure. Many consumers appreciate live rosin for its purity and rich terpene expression.
Try Live Rosin from Molecular Farms! Or taste Alt Sol’s newest Rosin Gummies.
Wax, Badder & Budder – Soft, whipped concentrates with smooth consistency that are commonly enjoyed through dab rigs or compatible vaporizers.
Diamonds & Sauce – High-potency THCA crystals paired with terpene-rich sauce for both potency and flavor.
Hash – One of the oldest forms of cannabis concentrate, produced by collecting and compressing the plant's resin glands.
Vape Cartridges – Many premium vape cartridges use live resin, live rosin, or other cannabis extracts, offering a convenient way to enjoy concentrates without specialized equipment.

Live Resin vs. Live Rosin: What's the Difference?
One of the most common questions we hear is the difference between live resin and live rosin.
Both begin with freshly harvested cannabis that is frozen immediately after harvest to preserve cannabinoids and terpenes. The difference lies in how the concentrate is produced.
Live Resin uses a carefully controlled extraction process that creates a highly flavorful concentrate while preserving much of the plant's natural terpene profile.
Live Rosin is made without chemical solvents. Instead, hash is pressed using only heat and pressure to extract the resin, making it a favorite among consumers seeking a solventless option.
Neither is objectively "better"—they simply offer different experiences. The best choice depends on your personal preferences for flavor, consistency, and desired effects.
Are Concentrates Stronger Than Flower?
Generally, yes.
While cannabis flower often contains between 15% and 30% THC, concentrates frequently contain much higher cannabinoid levels. That doesn't necessarily mean they're the right choice for everyone. Check out our concentrates!
For newer consumers, we always recommend starting with a small amount and allowing time to understand how the product affects you. Experienced consumers may appreciate concentrates for their potency, flavor, and efficiency, while others may prefer the familiarity of traditional flower.
Do Vape Cartridges Count as Concentrates?
Absolutely.
Because vape cartridges contain cannabis oil or extract, they are considered concentrates. Depending on the product, they may contain distillate, live resin, live rosin, or other extract types.
If you've enjoyed a vape cartridge before, you've already experienced one of the most popular forms of cannabis concentrates.
Why 710 Matters
Beyond the discounts and celebrations, 710 highlights how far cannabis innovation has come. Modern extraction techniques allow consumers to experience cannabis in new ways, with products that preserve the unique aromas, flavors, and cannabinoid profiles of each cultivar.
