What is RSO oil?

No oil is cannabis generated oil known for having high concentrations of the psychoactive compound found in marijuana, tetrahydrocannabinol, popularly known as THC. The combination is very potent, and its concentration is believed to have a lot of ability to treat many ailments.

This special oil was introduced in the cannabis market by popular Canadian cannabis activist Rick Simpson, and that is why the oil is known as RSO or Rick Simpson oil in full. 

This particular saw the light of the day when rick Simpson was diagnosed with skin cancer. He developed the rick Simpson oil after having treated other forms of ailments successfully. He tried treating his cancer with cannabis oil, and he claimed that the cancerous spots disappeared within a few days of application. 

After its success, many vapers wanted to know how they could turn this oil that is highly potent with high THC levels into consumable products vaporized. Luckily, you can make your oil by reducing your cannabis in oil. It is 99% isopropyl alcohol.

To get the best combination for RSO, you need to use highly potent cannabis strains such as Indica. To produce your own RSO for vaping, you need to understand that using toxic solvents like hexane and butane is not safe for you.

Using RSO oils means that you need a vape pen with satisfactory coils to vaporize high viscosity oils. This is because RSO is very thick, comparable to molasses, and normal vape pens cannot handle it. You can also thin the RSO oil using organic vegetable glycerin.

How to make your THC vape cart with Rick Simpson Oil (RSO)

Requirements

• RSO container
• Wax liquidizer
• Vape cartridge
• Small bottle with needle nose
• CBD liquid with natural terpenes

When selecting cartridges for your vape liquid, you need to get cartridges that can vaporize thick oils with Pyrex glass material and fitted with ceramic coils. This process does not work well with cheap cartridges because they are bur quick. Get yourself good batteries as well to avoid self-ignition and explosion problems.

To make the liquid, use approximately 2ml of wax liquidizer from 1 gram of wax. Mix it up in a shot glass or anything similar. Proceed to use a double boiler for heating purposes, and microwaves work perfectly too.

Continue mixing up as you heat more until the oil starts separating.

When done, let it cool down for some time using a little nozzle bottle and inject some into the cartridge. Fit your cartridge by screwing it on your battery, and you are good to go.

How to select the best RSO vape oil cartridge

Before buying a cannabis oil cartridge, you need to be well aware of what you are looking for in vaping. While these oil cartridges have various uses, you need to understand what will work better for you.

There is no right or wrong answer when it comes to finding the best vape oil cartridge. The selection of these cartridges depends on your personal preference.

We will be taking you through the steps of selecting the best oil cartridge.        

Oil cartridge threading and size

The term threading used to describe the connection thread for a particular vape cartridge and the batteries. The 510 threading is generally 5mm long and has ten screws threads.

The primary consideration with a threaded cartridge is whether it fits the vape pen. Most 510 cartridges will fit specific devices and may not easily fit other vape pens. It is therefore essential to confirm what kind of vape pen will match your cartridge.

Oil cartridge resistance and power limits

Resistance is measured on battery voltage. This is the amount created by the coil when using an amount higher than what is the recommended resistance. Using a higher resistance value, you will get less vapor; therefore, getting a device with lower resistance will give you thicker vapor and substantial hits.

Even the RSO cartridges do not come with the same power ranges. Therefore they cannot take the same amount of power. Due to this, you cannot select a vape pen that does not give sufficient power.

Ceramic cartridge vs wick cartridges

When purchasing cartridges, you will realize that there are different types of cartridges. A specific kind of cartridge will determine whether it is better for thicker or thinner oils.

The two common types of cartridges available are ceramic and wick. Getting ceramic cartridges is better for RSO because of its high viscosity. The wick cartridges will work better with the thinner oils you have processed.

Choosing the best vape pens to use for RSO

Box mod vapes

This type of vape pen is similar to the variable voltage battery. It is perfect for using RSO because it is extreme and can burn higher viscosity oils. You get a wide range of temperatures, but you need to be careful not to burn your cartridges.

EVOD vape pens

This pen is close to perfect when it comes to burning oils. It is a recommended pen because they all come with 510 threading which is acceptable for oil cartridges.
