Diamonds 101: A Beginner's Guide

  Diamonds , also known as THCA diamonds or THCA crystalline, are a type of cannabis concentrate that has gained popularity in recent years. These crystal-like shards are made by extracting the THCA compound from the cannabis plant, then purifying and crystallizing it into a high-THC concentrate.
