MARKS FIRST TIME BRAND’S CULTIVATION IS AVAILABLE AS A VAPING EXPERIENCE

California, March 11th, 2019 /AxisWire/ Clean cannabis company Dr. Robb Farms is releasing its first oil cartridge under the Rove Featured Farms line. Featured Farms is Rove’s signature 100% cannabis terpene line featuring single-source oil comprising the freshest, purest strains derived from high-quality flower—the only ingredient. Dr. Robb Farms’ limited edition run features the White Widowcultivar marking the first time the brand’s highly sought after flower is available as a vaping experience.

Product development took 6 months because of the high standards of Dr. Robb Farm’s Founder and CEO Robert Flannery, Ph.D. “We knew we wanted to use a classic cultivar with a strong terpene profile to take full advantage of Rove’s proprietary extraction methodology,” explains Dr. Flannery. “We finally settled on this particular White Widowcultivar and the results have been phenomenal.”

Using Rove’s finely-tuned CO2 extraction processes, they are able to capture the pure, original terpenes from the flower cultivated by Dr. Robb Farms. Using mild heat and pressure, they then carefully extract the oil. In the final step, the original raw terpenes and pure golden oil are recombined in a cartridge specifically designed to highlight the flower’s true and complex nature for an unparalleled vaping experience.

“We believe that this collaboration with Dr. Robb Farms will be the first of many as we continue to develop a deeper relationship with their organization,” says Rove president Paul Jacobson. “Look for more collaborations to come in the future.”

About Dr. Robb Farms: Dr. Robb Farms is committed to providing quality, pesticide-free cannabis by applying sound scientific methods and good science to create clean medicine.
