Ordering dabs online in Canada is this easy!
But before getting started though, we thought it would be great to be mindful of the following tips we’ve prepared for you.
These tips can help protect you from bogus manufacturers offering substandard products.
Included in this article, too, are the commonly asked questions on dabs, where to find the best dabs, and what the best dabs are in Canada.
Things To Consider In Buying Dabs Online
The great thing about the internet is the vast selection. You’ll find a wide variety of dabs online from our store — including different brands and varying potencies.
While it’s tempting to buy the first product you see, as a consumer, you have to know how to choose your dabs wisely, especially when buying online.
Below are the factors to consider when buying dabs online and offline.
The Appearance
Dabs are a type of cannabis concentrate where the cannabinoids are usually extracted using butane. The solvent is then removed through the process of evaporation, leaving behind a sticky oil.
The consistency differs though, depending on the solvent and extraction process used (butane, alcohol, carbon dioxide, heat and pressure, etc.)
If it’s in liquid form, the appearance is usually that of a thick, viscous, sticky oil with a colour that ranges from a dark golden honey to a deep amber.
If it’s in solid form, it can resemble an amber glass (shatter), brown sugar (crumble), sticky, amber crystals (wax), among others.
When choosing dabs based on their appearance, stay away from dabs that contain greenish and blackish hues. This could mean leftover plant materials and/or the presence of contaminants.
The Texture
Again, the texture varies depending on the type of solvent and process used to extract the cannabinoids.
The texture can range anywhere from a sticky oil to coarse and crumbly. It can also be malleable like dough or fragile and easily shatter upon touch. It can be hard and slick like glass or soft and flexible like gel.
Keep in mind that you’ll get different textures of dabs and that’s ok.
Flavours and Aromas
Terpenes give the different cannabis strains their unique flavour and aroma.
So, when choosing dabs, choose one based on the strain used since that’ll give you the expected dab flavour profile.
Strains with sweet and fruity aroma and flavour include Blue Cake, Sunset Sherbert, and Wedding Cake, while strains with lemony and citrusy notes include Super Lemon Haze, Purple Lemon Haze, and Mendo Breath.
The Potency
Dabs are more potent and much stronger than flowers. They’re even stronger than edibles.
According to some laboratory reports, dabs typically contain 80% to 90% of THC, definitely more powerful than flowers that contain the highest THC levels of 25% to 30%. So, when buying dabs, be sure to check the THC potency of the product.
If you’re new to dabbing, you should start with a very small amount at first and then wait about an hour to assess your reaction.
It’s always better to start with a lower dose than suffer the side effects of taking too much THC at once.
The Manufacturer
Always buy dabs made by trusted brands.
At Kootenay Botanicals, we go through a rigorous process to ensure the manufacturers are producing a quality, safe and potent product.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dabbing
Here are a few questions on dabbing that many inexperienced dabbers ask us.
Knowing them can help you avoid unpleasant side effects and, at the same time, choose a good product.
Which Extracts Can Be Dabbed?
Different solvents and extraction methods create different types of dabs or cannabis extracts. The most common dabs include shatter, wax, sugar wax, rosin, live resin, crumble, budder, taffy, crystalline, distillate, and THC diamonds.
You can use any of these dabs or cannabis extracts on your dab rig and enjoy their potent effects.
What you can’t use on your dab rig though are oils, tinctures, or any alcohol-based cannabis extracts. They quickly evaporate on the heated dab nail, leaving behind sooty, burnt oil.
How Does Dabbing Work?
You’d need a dab rig to fully enjoy dabs.
A dab rig is usually made up of three parts. You have the glass piece and the nail, and you also have to have a torch lighter.
You first have to heat the nail using the torch lighter until the nail glows red. Once it starts glowing red, remove the lighter and let the nail cool for about 30 seconds.
You’ll know you have the right temperature when you cup your hand about an inch above the heated nail. The heat will radiate warmly off the nail, but it should not be too hot.
When the temperature’s perfect, add a small amount of dab on the heated nail using a dabber and cover it with the carb cap. Inhale the vapors and enjoy the effects.
Again, dabs are potent.
If you’re new to this type of cannabis concentrate, always start with a low dose and go slowly as possible. You don’t want to ruin the experience by taking too much too soon.
Dabbing vs Smoking — What’s The Difference?
Dabbing is definitely not the same as smoking.
In smoking, you place the ground weed in a joint and roll it evenly to produce an even burn. You then light up the joint and inhale the smoke created by both weed and paper.
Dabbing, on the other hand, makes use of a dab rig where dabs are heated on the nail. The vapor it creates is then inhaled through the mouthpiece.
Which is safer?
According to experts, dabbing is safer than smoking since you’d only be inhaling the vapor and not the smoke caused by the combustion of weed and paper.
