Differences between moon rocks and sun rocks

Moon Rocks have become one of the most striking and absolutely essential products in cannabis dispensaries in some countries, as they are capable of multiplying THC content through various cannabis extraction procedures. Moon rocks are popularly known as “cannabis caviar,” as they can sell for as much as 60 dollars per gram in the legal market.

Recently, a new type of bud has come to light, offering superior potency and completely different properties, known as Sun Rock. The differences between Moon Rocks and Sun Rocks are significant, as the processes involved and the THC concentrations they present vary completely, in addition to being very easy to distinguish at a glance. Therefore, the sunrocks vs. moonrocks debate is quite exciting, and the differences between these cannabis extracts are explained below.

What is a Moon Rock?

Moon Rocks can reach 51.2% THC, which makes a single hit devastating, often knocking out even very experienced consumers. There is no need to use any specific variety, although it is recommended to use selected genetics that stand out for their high THC levels to ensure high-quality Moon Rocks. How are Moon Rocks made?

These Moon Rocks are simple to make, although they require certain elements that only the most professional growers or members of certain cannabis organizations can access. For Moon Rock, we will need cannabis oil, in which we must dip the bud, creating a honey-like layer around it. Subsequently, we will apply a layer of kief, which will give the bud a sandier appearance.

Factors to consider regarding Moon Rock:

The most negative point about Moon Rocks is that we cannot see the bud directly, so they are easy to counterfeit, and the buyer does not realize it until the moment they open the bud. This is as simple as taking a bud in poor condition, spraying it with any oil, and then coating it with low-quality hashish; the buyer would not notice until they opened it. Most Moon Rock sellers do not allow you to open the bud until you have purchased it, so in areas where their distribution is legal, it is only recommended to purchase them at dispensaries.

What are Sun Rocks?

SunRocks have appeared more recently, so they have been vastly improved, reaching THC levels that exceed 80%. Additionally, another factor that has been improved is their appearance; from a certain distance, they are indistinguishable from other buds, as the top layer consists of extracts from other buds, so we can only differentiate them from a close distance.

Sun Rocks: how are they obtained?

The formula for Sun Rock buds is slightly different, because to start with, all the elements used come from the same genetics, which in most cases is usually OG Kush. The first step is to select a good bud and perform a BHO extraction, carrying out all the necessary steps to obtain maximum purity and minimum contaminants in our extraction. Then you must select another bud and start spreading the previous extraction over it, so that it is well distributed, meaning it will not be visually apparent until you are relatively close.

Factors to consider for making Sun Rock:

In addition to showing great potency, the flavor of Sun Rocks is also much more intense, offering a more pleasant experience than smoking BHO directly, as we can smoke a joint calmly instead of a single devastating hit, while still achieving a cerebral effect and a particularly marked flavor.

Conclusions on Moon Rocks and Sun Rocks:

We hope this brief explanation of the main differences between Moon Rocks and Sun Rocks has been helpful, and that during your journey of cannabis discovery, you aren’t fooled or sold a pig in a poke. Best regards, and see you in the next post.
