As medical marijuana becomes more and more accepted across the United States as states begin their MMJ programs it spurs new markets to be established and created. Recently, rosin presses have become the new “it” item for all serious MMJ users to have. They are a wonderful way to extract the most potent and valuable parts of your cannabis flowers and take the process of dab creation from hours to minutes.
