Purple Martian

A prefilled container of cannabis oil, most often sold in .5g, 1g, and 2g volumes, with a built-in heating element and mouthpiece. It attaches to a rechargeable battery that is sold separately. Most use the universal "510" screw thread, so one battery works with cartridges from many makers.

The battery heats the cartridge's heating element, turning the oil into an aerosolized vapor that you inhale. The oil inside a cartridge varies: distillate with added terpenes, live resin, live rosin, etc. The menu/product listing and lab report should state which type of extract the cartridge contains.

Distillate with terpenes added from plants other than cannabis, blended for flavor. Botanical terpenes are taken from plants other than cannabis, such as myrcene from hops or mango, limonene from citrus peel, linalool from lavender, and pinene from pine. They are blended to recreate the aroma and flavor of a cannabis strain.

On a menu, "Indica" signals the effects the seller expects: relaxing, sedating, felt more in the body, suited to evening. That expectation is tradition, not a measured property of the product.
