What is a “Vaporizer”?
A vaporizer is a device that heats cannabis or hemp buds and/or concentrates to 315-440°F (157-227°C), which causes the cannabinoids stored in the plant’s trichomes to evaporate into a gas without combusting any plant material. It’s a healthy alternative to smoking cannabis.
Vaporizer (noun):
- Pronounced: /ˈvāpəˌrīzər/
- A device that converts liquid to vapor, usual for the purpose of inhalation.
- Heating cannabis wax, oil, or concentrate to just under combustion resulting in a vapor.
Usage Examples
