How to Make Weed Wax
Disclaimer: Making weed wax can be dangerous due to the flammable solvents involved.
- Preparing the cannabis: Start by grinding your cannabis flower into small pieces.
- Extraction: Place the ground cannabis in an extraction tube and cover the open end with a coffee filter. Add butane to the other end to extract the cannabinoids and terpenes.
- Evaporation: Collect the resulting liquid in a glass dish and allow the butane to evaporate. This step is crucial, as inhaling butane can harm your health.
- Purging: Use a vacuum chamber to remove any remaining butane. This step ensures a purer and safer final product.
- Scraping: Once the wax is stable, use a dabber tool to collect the wax from the glass dish.

How to Smoke Weed Wax
Weed wax is commonly consumed through a method called “dabbing”. You’ll need a dab rig similar to a bong but designed specifically for concentrates.
- Heat the nail: Use a torch to heat the dab rig’s nail until it’s red-hot.
- Cool the nail: Allow the nail to cool for about 30 seconds.
- Apply the wax: Use a dabber tool to apply a small amount of weed wax to the hot nail.
- Inhale the vapor: As the wax vaporizes, inhale the vapor through the mouthpiece of the dab rig.
Alternatively, you can use vaporizers designed for concentrates or sprinkle a small amount of wax on top of cannabis flower in a pipe or joint.
How Long Does Weed Wax Last?
The effects of weed wax typically set in quickly, often within a few seconds to a minute, and can last several hours. The duration of the high depends on factors such as individual tolerance, the amount consumed, and the product’s potency.
How Long Does Weed Wax Stay in Your System?
The length of time weed wax stays in your system depends on factors like frequency of use, metabolism, and body fat. THC from weed wax can be detected in blood for up to 48 hours, in urine for up to 30 days, and in hair follicles for up to 90 days. However, these timeframes can vary based on individual circumstances.
