different extraction methods that offer a variety of products for consumers. Among these methods, BHO (Butane Hash Oil), DHO (Dimethyl Ether Hash Oil) and PHO (Propane Hash Oil) are some of the most popular techniques. Each of these methods <strong>uses a different solvent to extract the desired compounds<\/strong> from the cannabis plant, and these differences in extraction result in different characteristics in the final product.
