Dab

aka dabs · wax

A dab is a single dose of cannabis concentrate vaporized on a heated nail or banger. Dabs are extremely potent (60-99% cannabinoids) and produce an immediate intense effect. Dabbing requires specialized hardware (rig, nail, torch or e-nail). Hemp THCA dabs are typically diamonds, rosin, or live resin.

Example: I took one dab of THCA diamonds and was good for hours.

Etymology: Slang from 'a dab' meaning a small amount, since concentrates are dosed in tiny portions.
