Who Makes Agri-Kind
Agri-Kind is a Pennsylvania-based marijuana company under our parent brand, Verano. Verano’s mission is to provide compassionate care to all marijuana patients. As such, Verano owns twelve cultivating facilities across the United States where a multitude of strains are grown by expert handlers. At Verano brands, we understand that there is not just one way to experience medical marijuana; the marijuana experience should meet patients where they are and consider the unique experiences of a multitude of patients nationwide.
Verano brands strive to create innovative new products that can benefit several different types of patients and takes the mission to the next level by making access to these products easy and reliable.
Verano and Agri-Kind products can be life-changing, and with the expansion of critical marijuana education, more and more patients are aware of the numerous benefits using medicinal marijuana brands like Agri-Kind can bring them.
Agri-Kind Marijuana Products
Not everyone enjoys using marijuana in the same way, that’s why Agri-Kind takes such care to ensure marijuana is available in many different forms to satisfy the needs of every kind of patient. What’s more, Agri-Kind patients receive only the cleanest products made from 100% marijuana extract and zero aftermarket or botanically derived terpenes.
Flower
Bud or flower is the part of the marijuana plant that is dried in order to vaporize, as Pennsylvania state law does not allow for smoking of marijuana. Flower is the most common way to use marijuana, which can be added to a dry herb vaporizer to heat the marijuana flower until the beneficial compounds are released in vapor form to be inhaled. The effects of vaping flower are the most immediate, as the cannabinoids in marijuana vapor can quickly reach the bloodstream via the lungs. Typically, these effects can last as long as two to three hours, but it is very dependent on the individual.
Concentrates
To create safe and high-quality concentrates, Agri-Kind extracts the most beneficial elements of the marijuana plant. These elements include cannabinoid and terpene compounds, which cause the medicinal effects as well as the unique taste and aroma of marijuana. These extracts are created using the highest quality hydrocarbon extraction services and crafted into different concentrates. As each concentrate has a different consistency, Agri-Kind produces numerous types of wax, sugar sauce, shatter, and live resin to suit all patient preferences.
What Is Agri-Kind Sauce?
By carefully selecting the best genetic strains, Agri-Kind produces a very rich, terpene-heavy cannabinoid crystal that we label sauce. This process tends to take much longer than the process of creating other concentrates such as shatter or wax because the terpenes must separate from the cannabinoids. This sauce is very sticky and has a liquid consistency similar to jam. Since it is high in terpenes, Agri-Kind sauce is known for its very potent and flavorful taste. There are numerous ways to use Agri-Kind sauce, including inhaling the vapor, ingesting it, or buying it in a cartridge.
Rick Simpson Oil (RSO)
RSO is a consumable extract that is often dispensed through a syringe into an empty pill capsule, onto a piece of food, under the tongue, or applied topically onto the skin. With its extremely high THC content, RSO can be used by patients who have a strong tolerance to THC and need something more potent to gain the same effects. RSO is often made from indica-heavy plants, giving it more sedative/full body relaxation qualities, though it is also produced in hybrid and sativa strains. The inventor of this oil, Rick Simpson, believes to have cured his skin cancer with the oil.
Vape Carts
Cartridges are sold for the purpose of vaping the marijuana oil. Most often made from glass, individual cartridges are filled with either 1 gram or ½ gram of marijuana oil. To vaporize and inhale the oil, you will need a vape pen that fits your cartridge of choice. From there, simply charge, press the on button, and the atomizer will heat the oil, converting it into vapor for inhalation. To create state of the art vapes, Agri-Kind crafts each cartridge to contain a beneficial marijuana strain that carries precisely the benefits you’re seeking. Containing no carrying agents or fillers, the oil in all Agri-Kind vape cartridges is safe, extracted 100% from the marijuana plant, and rigorously tested by third parties.
Tinctures
Tinctures allow you to place the oil right under your tongue and, because of their ease of use, are the most common way to digest marijuana oil. When taken sublingually, the cannabinoids and terpenes can travel directly into the bloodstream without first needing to travel through the digestive system, though you can swallow tinctures directly for a slower onset of effects that feel similar to that of an edible. Agri-Kind tinctures come in a variety of strengths and can be either CBD dominant or THC dominant depending on your desired results.
