3 Strains for Pressing into Rosin: From Beginner to Challenging

Not all cannabis strains were created equally when it comes to solventless rosin, and at the end of the day, some just press better than others.

Back in December 2019, Major League Baseball announced that it would be removing cannabis from their banned substances list for professional players in the minor leagues. This finally brought minor league baseball into line with the major leagues, who hadn’t been policed as harshly as the smaller local town players.
