“We believe rosin will be the new favorite concentrate for medical and adult-use cannabis consumers because of its increased potency and taste. We also notice that many growers have been venturing into producing flower rosin, as it’s a relatively easy product to produce on a large scale. Therefore, we believe the flower rosin market will be developing a lot in the near future,” says Ryan Douglas of Rosin Unity. On top of growing their own cultivars for rosin production, the company provides a platform for rosineers worldwide to log, share, learn and educate themselves in the field of rosin tech. “Our mission is simple: to help rosineers extract the highest possible yields from their cannabis. Heat, time, pressure, and a variety of other variables all contribute to how your rosin tech experience will be. Through data, we take the guesswork out.”

Helping the developing market
When comparing cannabis products, Ryan explains that flower rosin is a great option for beginning producers. “If you would choose to make hash rosin or live rosin, for example, you need to make hash first. This means another solventless extraction that you need to perform, where you lose time and yield. Flower rosin is an easy starting material to make solventless THCA and solventless diamonds, for which we’ve noticed a lot of interest.”

Yet, when they were getting different results when pressing different cultivars, the founders saw a need for software that helps producers track data. “That’s how Rosin Unity was born. As the rosin market continues to develop, we saw a need for such a platform. Our logging features will help producers determine their products’ best yield variables. Our community hubs will help them safely share and connect with other registered rosineers around the world in both public and private chat rooms. Our education and entertainment hubs will keep everyone up to date and informed on new practices and products in the rosin industry.”
Collecting data
To help them collect their own data on their flower before they press it, Rosin Unity decided to purchase the GemmaCert device. “Back in 2017, we started breeding for rosin production. The GemmaCert has helped us dial in our genetics and cultivars, as it helps us to pick and stabilize our cultivars based on the results. Being able to test for THC, CBD, CBG, and water activity has been a game changer for our data. It has made it a lot easier to predict our results before we press it. Lately, my favorite feature has been the ability to test the solventless extracts as well, which is, of course, a great help for our company. Overall, the amount of money we save on testing and the convenience it has provided us has made the GemmaCert well worth it for us.”
