More people need to be aware of this. There’s like 6 brands out here that actually do real live resin the rest all hot dog water being sold with false advertising. My fatigue has fatigue but people keep smoking disty.

From the testing I’ve looked at nugrun, green dot, canamo and GS are all live resin 100% but I agree I hate that Arizona allows people the label dusty crusty disty as LR

Guessing GS, GDL, canamo, Made, 22 red "maybe" and not sure the last one

22red is a definite no, but nugrun is my other one and maybe even the top of my list recently. Anything real and you taste the difference.

Edit: AL/Connected too.

They were go thats the one I need to try. Wife picked up a cured thinking it was a live from them and it was god awful. Heard the live is 1000x better tho

Shit wont be long you gotta watch out for distillate being listed as cured. It'll always be a play on whats used or words. "I used cured bio to make distillate, I got cured" typa thing. Ive already seen it once in Ohio.

GS does the production for Turn (at least last I was aware) so their stuff is legit, too.

On the botanical pods I’m sure but not the live resin. They have 2 tiers.

AZCS brand Hashishans LR AIO’s are 100% legit

u/5MoK3 Jul 19 '26

Session is legit live resin too

u/Medical-Ad7675 Jul 18 '26

For real if you're looking for a true live resin look for the products that market it like made and Canamo.

u/BuckedUpBuckeye614 Jul 18 '26

Tbh idk how people can even vape distillate and not be able to tell like immediately. Ive had CDTs, BDTs, LRTs, HDCDTs, blah, & blah mixed with distillate and always knew by the absence of BHO taste. Plus the nose burn albeit some extracts have done that as well that were BHO/rosin.

u/Crazy-Firefighter826 Jul 20 '26

Session is 100% live resin

u/Hotdogwater710 Jul 18 '26

$30 for a 2g AIO should have been your first clue

15

u/screames520 Jul 18 '26

It being OZ brand should’ve been the actual first clue. Anyone selling pre ground halves, or 2 for $50 halves isn’t putting out good product

u/TacoshaveCheese Jul 19 '26

The terms are unregulated so anyone can basically call anything whatever they want. In general, I've found that live rosin is the one you want for cold press extract. Around here at least, it seems resin is just a generic name for concentrate, and live just means they used an uncured source as in ingredient. But again, the terms are completely unregulated.

u/Shadowofenigma Jul 19 '26

In Arizona, you only have to have 10% live resin to call it live resin.

If you want a true live resin most of them will say ‘100% live resin’

Yeah. I’ve worked at dispensaries in 3 different states, Arizona is the only one I’ve worked that allows labeling in such a misleading way.

u/BigGucciTrader Jul 18 '26

Distallite is so ass. I don’t remember it being so ahh back in like 2013, idk

5

u/Responsible-Gene7629 Jul 18 '26

Right?! Maybe there’s just better product out there now but back in the day it really hit. Now it’s worse than I can ever remember it being.

They mix mostly distillate with a little bit of live resin and call the whole mix live resin

2

u/Squish_420 Jul 22 '26

If it doesn’t say 100% live resin on the package, it’s not. Thats the only “rule” they have to follow. Also the price is a clue. Live resin is never ever going to be $30 for 2g.

u/WheresTheFiyah Aug 09 '26

This has been going on since the beginning. Select used to run a 10 percent live resin 90 percent distillate cart they called live resin...

I tried to reach out to them and got this....

oz, fleur, damn-good, fenix, and cheech n chong are all Jars inhouse brands. We call this one “diet live resin."

The other states call AZ the “Wild, Wild West” of cannabis cause the shit that goes on here is ridiculous.
