What happened

Matt Martinez, Chief Product Officer at Heavy Hitters, commented on the variety of terms used in the cannabis vape industry, such as distillate, live resin, and rosin. Martinez stated that the industry often overemphasizes the extraction method itself. He argued that quality is determined by the starting cannabis, how it was processed and formulated, and the hardware used, rather than the extraction type.
