Ready to figure out what type of concentrate belongs in your cart? Let’s start with the basics.
What Are THC Concentrates?
THC concentrates are exactly what they sound like: cannabis products with the active compounds extracted and concentrated. Flower typically runs 15–30% THC. Concentrates? They can hit 60–90%+. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, concentrates include any cannabis product where THC has been extracted from the plant material, resulting in a much higher potency than traditional flower.
There are several types of THC concentrates you’ll encounter on the shelf. Each has a different texture, extraction method, and experience profile. Knowing the differences helps you shop smarter.
Common Types of THC Concentrates
- Wax — soft, opaque, and easy to handle; great for beginners to dabbing
- Shatter — hard, glass-like, and translucent; known for high purity
- Live Resin — extracted from fresh-frozen flower; preserves the terpene profile better than most
- Rosin — solventless extraction using heat and pressure; popular with the health-conscious crowd
- Distillate — ultra-refined oil; very high THC, minimal flavor unless terpenes are added
- Badder / Budder — creamy texture; easy to work with and flavorful
The type you choose affects everything: how you use it, how it tastes, and how fast it takes effect. Now let’s look at the brands that do it best.
Grow West Concentrates at Blair Wellness
Grow West is a Maryland-based cannabis brand with a reputation for consistency and craft. Their concentrates are made from high-quality flower using extraction processes designed to preserve terpene integrity. That means more flavor, and a more complete experience.
Terpene preservation matters more than most people realize. The entourage effect, the way cannabinoids and terpenes work together, means that a flavorful, full-spectrum concentrate often delivers a more layered experience than a stripped-down distillate. Grow West leans into that.
At Blair Wellness, we stock several Grow West concentrate formats. Popular options include their live resin and wax products, which balance potency with a rich terpene presence. If you want something that actually tastes like the strain it came from, Grow West is a strong starting point.

SunMed Concentrates: Sun-Grown Quality
SunMed built their name on outdoor, sun-grown cannabis. Their philosophy centers on sustainable farming practices and clean extraction. Research on cannabis terpenes suggests that sun-grown plants often develop more complex terpene profiles due to natural UV exposure which translates directly into concentrate flavor and effect.
SunMed concentrates at Blair Wellness tend to carry distinct strain-forward flavor profiles. Their live resins and badders are particularly popular with customers who prefer a more natural, less processed experience. The flavor comes through clean, and the effects feel full.
SunMed also provides detailed product information, which makes it easy for our team to answer your questions. Transparency matters ,you should know what you’re putting in your body.
| 💡 Expert Insight: Why Sun-Grown Concentrates Hit Different
Most indoor cannabis gets optimized for yield and appearance. Sun-grown cannabis grows under full-spectrum natural light, which forces the plant to produce more robust terpene and cannabinoid profiles as a natural stress response. When you extract from sun-grown flower, you’re starting with a biochemically richer plant. That’s why SunMed concentrates often taste more complex than equivalently priced indoor-derived products ,it’s not marketing, it’s plant biology. |
Rythm Concentrates: Precision and Potency
Rythm is a well-known multi-state operator with a focus on consistency and lab-verified quality. If you’ve ever bought a cannabis product and wondered if the label matched what was actually inside, Rythm’s commitment to third-party testing addresses that concern directly.
Their concentrates are known for high THC percentages and reliable batch-to-batch consistency. That predictability is valuable, especially for experienced consumers who have dialed in their preferred experience and don’t want surprises.
According to FDA guidance on cannabis testing, third-party testing is one of the key markers consumers should look for when evaluating cannabis product safety. Rythm checks that box consistently.
Blair Wellness carries Rythm concentrates across several formats. Their distillates and live resins are consistently strong sellers at our location.
