710: The Oil Enthusiast’s 4/20 - Celebrate the Day of Concentrates!
Welcome, fellow enthusiasts! If you’ve ever looked at the cannabis calendar and thought, “Why isn’t there a day just for concentrates?” you’re in for a treat. 7/10, often lovingly referred to as “the 4/20 for oil,” is that special day. Let’s dive into the history, significance, and ways to celebrate this high-flying holiday.
What is 7/10?
July 10th, or 7/10, is the day dedicated to celebrating marijuana oils and concentrates. But why 7/10, you ask? Well, flip “710” upside down and you’ll see it spells “OIL.” Clever, right? Just like 4/20 became synonymous with all things cannabis, 7/10 has emerged as the official day to appreciate the potent, flavorful world of concentrates.
A Brief History of 7/10
The exact origins of 7/10 are a bit hazy (pun intended), but its rise in popularity parallels the growing interest in concentrates over the last decade. As dabbing and other methods of consuming concentrates became more mainstream, enthusiasts sought a day to celebrate these high-THC products. And thus, 7/10 was born.
While 4/20 has roots going back to the 1970s with a group of high school students known as “The Waldos,” 7/10 is a more modern creation, gaining traction in the early 2010s. It started as a grassroots movement among concentrate enthusiasts and quickly spread through social media, dispensary promotions, and cannabis events.
Why Celebrate 7/10?
Concentrates offer a unique and intense cannabis experience. From shatter and wax to live resin and distillate, the variety is immense, and the potency is unmatched. Here’s why we think 7/10 deserves a spot on your cannabis celebration calendar:
1. Potency: Concentrates can have THC levels upwards of 80-90%, providing a powerful experience for seasoned consumers.
2. Flavor: The extraction process often preserves terpenes, giving concentrates a rich and robust flavor profile.
3. Versatility: Whether you prefer dabbing, vaping, or infusing your edibles, there’s a concentrate for every method of consumption.
How to Celebrate 7/10

1. Dab it Up: Break out your dab rig and enjoy some of your favorite concentrates. Experiment with different strains and types to find your perfect match.
2. Try Something New: If you’re new to concentrates, today’s the perfect day to give them a try. Start with a low dose and take it slow – these products are potent!
3. Host a Concentrate Tasting: Invite friends over for a concentrate tasting party. Share different types of oils, waxes, and resins and compare notes on flavor and effects.
