Vaporizers vs. Vapes: What’s the Difference?
Heard about vaping but not exactly sure what it means? You’re not alone. In this article we’ll explain the difference between vaporizers and vapes and how we’ve named our products to minimize confusion.
What’s a vaporizer?
A vaporizer is a device that is typically used to inhale plant substances, like cannabis. When it comes to vaporizing cannabis, either dried flower or some extracts can be used in the device. Known for its ease of use and portability, vaporizing cannabis is an almost-smokeless process (meaning it produces very little smoke on the exhale) and can heat up dried flower or cannabis extracts without burning it.
Cannabis vaporizers come in many different sizes and formats, designed to be used with various substances. To minimize confusion in the category and to help make shopping easier, we have purposefully and clearly named our vaporizing products with you in mind.
Here’s a list of all the different vaporizers we carry and a clear explanation of each:
1. Dried Flower Vaporizers
Often used as a replacement for smoking joints or pipes, a dried flower vaporizer can be used by simply loading it with dried flower (make sure to grind it first). The vaporizer heats the dried flower to a temperature that’s high enough to decarboxylate the THCA, changing it to the active THC form, but not high enough to burn the flower.
