July 10th, known as “Oil Day” or “Dab Day” in the cannabis community, is a day to celebrate and enjoy cannabis concentrates. Much like 4/20, 7/10 is a significant date for cannabis enthusiasts, particularly those who appreciate the potency and purity of concentrates like oils, dabs, and other extracts. At 7Engines Cannabis Dispensary, we’re excited to celebrate this special day with our customers. Let’s explore what makes 7/10 so special and take a trip (pun intended!) into the world of cannabis concentrates.
What is 7/10 Oil Day?
The Origin of 7/10 Oil Day
7/10 Oil Day, celebrated on July 10th, is a relatively new addition to the cannabis calendar. However, it has quickly gained popularity among enthusiasts. The date was chosen because when 710 is flipped upside down, it spells “OIL,” which perfectly aligns with the celebration of cannabis oils and concentrates. Unlike 4/20, which has a long and somewhat mysterious history, 7/10’s origins are clear and directly tied to the products it celebrates.
High Potency and Purity
Cannabis oils and concentrates are celebrated on 7/10 because of their high potency and purity. These products are created through processes that extract the essential compounds from the cannabis plant, primarily THC and CBD, leaving behind impurities and plant matter. As a result, this is a product that is much more potent than traditional cannabis flower. For many users, this means a more intense and effective experience, often requiring smaller amounts to achieve the desired effects.

Additionally, cannabis oils can be added to food or beverages, making it easy to incorporate them into your daily routine.

Wax
- Texture and Application: Wax is a popular concentrate known for its crumbly, honeycomb-like texture. This texture makes it easy to handle and measure, especially for dabbing. Moreover, the process of making wax involves whipping the extracted oil during the purging process, which incorporates air and creates its distinct consistency.
- High Potency: Wax is celebrated for its high potency, often containing a higher concentration of THC than many other concentrates. As a result, it is an excellent choice for experienced users seeking a strong and immediate effect. Due to its potency, it’s advisable to start with a small amount and gradually increase as needed.
Shatter
- Appearance and Handling: Shatter is easily recognizable by its glass-like, translucent appearance. This concentrateis known for its brittle consistency, which makes it easy to break into small pieces for precise dosing. The clarity and consistency of the shatter are indicators of its purity and quality.

This process preserves the plant’s natural terpenes, resulting in a concentrate that offers a robust flavor and aroma profile. The preservation of aspect of terpenes sets live resin apart from other concentrates, which may lose some of these compounds during drying and curing.
- Full-Spectrum Experience: Live resinprovides a full-spectrum cannabis experience, meaning it contains a broader range of cannabinoids and terpenes compared to other concentrates. This can enhance the entourage effect, where the various compounds work together to produce a more balanced and effective result.
