420 Culture

It’s that other time of year again. 7/10, the Robin to 4/20’s Batman, is upon us. While it may not hold the nostalgia and reputation of its more-known numerical cannabis code, the concentrate holiday has it own unique place in the culture. Celebrating cannabis “OIL” and other concentrates embraces the progress of the cannabis world, a world that thrives working in concert with science and the new legalized market. 4/20 will always be one for the ages, but 7/10 is a truly modern marijuana phenomenon.

Much like 4/20/2020, this year’s 7/10 celebrations are going to have to be observed in more personal settings, but that shouldn’t stop anyone from cozying up to cannabis’ second High Holiday.

Ways to Celebrate 7/10 at Home

Just because you’re socially distanced, doesn’t mean there’s nothing to do. Here are some fun ways to celebrate 7/10 from the safety of your home:

Order In

Delivery is still an option for both delicious food and dank dabs in many legalized cities. Get some dabs and dumplings delivered and treat yourself to a night off. No delivery? Most dispensaries are doing curbside pickup. Just make a second stop and get some takeout and you’re good to go.

Acquire a New Smoking Accessory

So you’ve been scrolling through your favorite glassblower’s IG feed for the tenth time today, eyeing a new rig. The holiday can be just the excuse you were looking for to get something special.

Also, local glass artists and head shops are feeling the COVID squeeze too, and supporting their businesses during these times can go a long way.  

Distillate Deliciousness

Add some distillate to your favorite dish for an edible 7/10 celebration. With distillate, the limits are really only your imagination, so why not take the opportunity to try a dish you’ve never considered as an edible. Infused salad dressing? Yes please. Fondue? Dip it. Buffalo wings? Sauce.

Get Fancy

Lots of cannabis businesses are offering discounts on concentrates for 7/10 that are unheard of the rest of the year. It can be a rare opportunity to sample some of the finer things in cannabis concentrates. Grab that rare rosin you’ve been holding out on and treat yourself to some connoisseur level products at mid-shelf prices.
