For the last few years I have vaped live rosin carts exclusively, every day. I buy good (but not elite) carts from a dispensary -- usually Ideal brand from a local place called Goldflower. I'm in Florida, so there are full lab reports with each batch. I always vape my carts through water, and usually large, multi-chamber bongs with ice and ash catchers. Total overkill. I use a YocanPro and vape at 2.0 volts (at least for the first half of the cart), but I sometimes take long draws, leaving the heat on and pulling until my battery times out at 15 seconds. I have three Yocans and three open carts at any time, so if I want to take multiple hits, I don't hit a still-hot cart. I'm worried about smell, so 100% of the time I exhale into a SmokeTrap+. Between vape carts, water, and exhaling into a carbon filter, my room is practically smell free.
Recently I've been thinking about how different cannabinoids vaporize at different temperatures and wondering if my cart usage is limiting my highs. Should I add a dry herb vape for home use, like the Volcano Hybrid? What I really want to find out is whether my highs will feel different. Even though live rosin is single strain and nicely extracts the various cannabinoids, I doubt vaporizing a live rosin cart at 2.0 volts for 15 seconds gives the same ratios of cannabinoids as filling a bag from a Volcano, even when the strain is exactly the same. Maybe the effects are different. By the way, I sometimes swallow an eye dropper full of full spectrum CBD at night to enhance the vape with additional cannabinoids.
I understand a Volcano will take a lot more effort to control the smell. I'm willing to do that if there's a real chance I'll enjoy the highs more, or have more types or highs to choose from. Is there? Or am I likely to feel the same? I am not unhappy with my current setup, but I am curious.
For what it's worth, I don't give a hoot about "taste." Massive percolation removes most of that anyway, which I prefer. I don't believe terps contribute to the high, and sometimes they irritate my throat even with my massive percolation. Also, I'd rather not add "cost" into the discussion; I already have all the information I need about costs. My interest is in whether my high will feel different vaping dry herb compared to live rosin carts. How different? I'd appreciate hearing especially from people who have extensive experience with both live rosin carts and vaping dry herb.
