ROVE | Garlic Gelato | Live Rosin | .5G Reload POD

ROVE Garlic Gelato Live Rosin .5G Reload Pod: Indica Pod, Hell's Kitchen Dispensary, Manhattan Not every strain name sounds like dessert. Garlic Gelato leans savory on purpose, and the ROVE Garlic Gelato Live Rosin .5G Reload Pod pairs that name with a solventless extract in ROVE's swappable pod format. Cannadreams carries it at our licensed adult-use cannabis dispensary, 862 9th Ave on the corner of West 56th Street, in Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan. Two things in one pod This product combines two ideas that ROVE usually sells separately. The first is live rosin, a solventless extract. The second is the Reload pod, which clicks into a ROVE pod battery and gets swapped out when it runs dry. Most of ROVE's Reload pods we carry are one gram live resin style pods. This one is a half gram of live rosin, so it is smaller and made a different way. Live rosin, plainly Rosin is pressed, not chemically extracted. Retail listings for ROVE's rosin products describe the process as starting with fresh frozen plants, washing the resin glands off with ice and water to make hash, then pressing that hash with heat and pressure. No hydrocarbon or alcohol solvent is involved, which is why it gets the solventless label. It is slower and yields less per plant than solvent extraction, and that is the main reason rosin pods come in half gram sizes. About Garlic Gelato Garlic Gelato is listed as an indica on our menu. Its lineage is not widely published, and different breeders have used similar names, so we are not going to pick a family tree and present it as fact. The name signals the savory, garlic-leaning style that has become its own corner of the menu in recent years. Batch notes vary. Read the box for the batch details and state label. What hardware you need Retail listings describe ROVE Reload pods as compatible only with ROVE pod batteries. A threaded 510 battery will not hold this pod, so the Rove 510 Battery we sell is the wrong match here. Press the pod into the battery until it sits flush, take a short test draw, and if nothing happens, charge the battery and wipe the contacts with a dry swab before trying again. A half gram, used well Rosin can be thicker than other vape oils, especially in a cold apartment. If the first draw feels tight, hold the pod and battery in your hand for a minute to bring it up to room temperature. Keep pulls short and steady. Start with one draw, then wait a few minutes before deciding on another, because vapor can take a little while to register. A half gram used this way lasts longer than the size suggests. Comparing it to the other ROVE pods If you own a ROVE pod battery, you can rotate between this pod and the one gram Reload pods we stock, such as Birthday Cake and Apricot Haze. The difference is the extract and the size: those are full gram pods, while Garlic Gelato is a half gram of rosin. If you want rosin but do not own a pod battery, the ROVE Minibar live rosin all-in-ones, Citrus Sap and Super Boof, need no extra hardware. Rosin and temperature Rosin is the extract most sensitive to heat. Leave this pod on a sunny sill in July or next to the radiator in a steam-heated walk-up, and it can thin out and seep. Keep it upright, at room temperature, ideally in a drawer in an interior room. Cold storage is not necessary and can bring condensation when it warms up again. Keep it away from children and pets.
