How Is Shatter Used? Shatter is usually smoked through what is called a “dab rig” or a modified bong. A small piece of the shatter is placed on a metal nail which is then heated up using a blow torch. The heat from the nail causes the shatter to vaporize which is then inhaled through the dab rig. The entire process takes only seconds but can have profound effects that last for hours. What Are The Effects Of Shatter? The effects of shatter can be both mental and physical. Shatter is a very potent form of cannabis with a THC content that can range anywhere from 60-80%. This high concentration of THC can produce effects that are much more intense than what is experienced with other forms of cannabis such as flower or hash. Shatter can cause an intense feeling of euphoria and relaxation. It can also cause users to experience changes in perception, mood, and cognition. Some people may also experience side effects such as paranoia, anxiety, or panic attacks. What Is the Difference Between Shatter and Wax? Shatter is a type of cannabis concentrate that gets its name from its shatter-like appearance. Unlike wax, shatter is made using a process of heating and cooling the cannabis extract to get rid of impurities, leaving behind a clear, glass-like product. While shatter may look similar to wax at first glance, there are a few key differences between the two concentrates. For starters, shatter is typically much higher in THC than wax. Shatter drugs can have up to 90% THC content, making them one of the strongest cannabis concentrates on the market. In addition to being more potent, shatter also tends to provide a more cerebral high that is perfect for treating conditions like anxiety and depression. Wax, on the other hand, is typically lower in THC and offers a more body-focused high that can be great for pain relief. Shatter also tends to be more stable than wax, meaning it is less likely to degrade or lose potency over time. However, shatter is also more fragile and can shatter easily if dropped or mishandled. What Are The Dangers Of Shatter? Shatter is incredibly potent, often containing up to 90% THC. This high concentration can be extremely dangerous, especially for first-time users or those with little tolerance. The effects of shatter can be felt almost immediately and can last for several hours. Shatter can also be quite dangerous to produce. Due to the use of flammable solvents like butane, there is a risk of explosion and fire during the extraction process. Because shatter is so potent, it can be easy to overdo it and take too much. This can lead to an uncomfortable experience or even a bad trip. Taking too much shatter can cause users to feel panicked, confused, and paranoid. They may also experience visual and auditory hallucinations. In extreme cases, people have reported feeling like they are going to die or that they are being chased by monsters. Shatter is also dangerous because it can be laced with other drugs. For example, some dealers will mix shatter with methamphetamine to create a more potent product. This can be very dangerous and can lead to serious health problems or even death.
