Yo man, I lost my YoCan. I’m so sad. But I had… won a contest, ’cause I was the best, at taking big rips, pouring smoke in my chest.
Lifetime lighters. Lifetime lighters. Never will I go again without an igniter. I smoked a whole mound, pulled a stoney all-nighter. My weed’s a calm crowd, and the flame’s my inciter.
Yo man, I smoked a whole gram – of Space Rocks. Got with the space program. Never aghast that I’m unable to blast – my mind into space. I have much butane gas.
Lifetime lighters. Lifetime lighters. Never will I go again without an igniter. My weed was once green, now it’s ashy and whiter. If joints start to run, then you must roll them tighter.
To my knowledge, Riviera Creek from Youngstown is the only legal cannabis company in Ohio that is producing moon rocks and space rocks. This is probably due to the cost of the materials that go into making these high-THC products.
I once had a rep from Klutch tell me the reason they don’t produce moon rocks is because of the cost of the materials needed to make the product versus the return they would receive. I imagine this is largely the reason most other companies refrain from producing moon and space rocks.
According to Riviera Creek’s website, their moon rocks are cannabis flower coated in solventless live rosin and solventless bubble ice hash. I always thought moon rocks were flower coated in bubble hash and kief, but Riviera Creek’s formula is a bit different, and I honestly prefer it.
I have tried Riviera Creek’s moon rocks in the past. They were among the best-tasting and most medically-effective moon rocks I’ve tried. Their price was the only thing that held me back from enjoying them more often.
Riviera Creek’s space rocks seem to be a bit harder to find than their moon rocks. Many people swear that the space rocks are stronger than the moon rocks, which is possible. Space rocks are cannabis flower coated in solventless live rosin and THCA crystals. Riviera Creek’s moon rocks are the exact same thing except for the fact they have ice hash instead of THCA crystals.
While both moon rocks and space rocks contain flower, these products essentially behave like an extract. You put them on top of your bowl and bubble them into the flower, or mix them into your joint. You can also smoke them by themselves in a pipe with a glass screen.
I would avoid dabbing moon and space rocks or putting them in a concentrate or flower vaporizer, as this might cause issues with residue. Dabbing them can stain your nail because of the flower material contained within. Putting them in a concentrate vaporizer can clog up the chamber, once again due to the raw plant material mixed in with the hash. Putting them in a flower vaporizer might clog the chamber due to the gooey extract content.
On the packaging for Riviera Creek Space Rocks there is no info about the strains or phenotypes of the flower, rosin or THCA crystals. In regards to phenotype, I consider this product a hybrid. It came packaged in a standard Riviera Creek green Mylar bag. The hash was housed in a small glass jar with a black plastic lid that had a removable space rocks sticker.
It didn’t smell too awfully strong but it did have a weedy scent. I didn’t get a chance to weigh it before consumption but it looked to weigh about a gram. I had used a little bit of the space rocks before taking the pictures for this article, so what you see here isn’t the entire gram.
If space rocks are subjected to heat or humidity, the THCA diamonds might absorb into the rosin and become invisible. This will not affect the potency of the space rocks.
In the past I’ve had some people tell me their batches of space rocks looked gross and slimy but I purchased a nice-looking ball. Here are two photos of the same space rock under different lighting conditions for comparison.
This stuff was gooey and sticky. I was able to work with it using my fingers but I needed to hit them with an alcohol wipe afterwards. To handle the space rocks you can also use bamboo, wood, or titanium toothpicks or dab tools. The space rocks came with a small plastic spoon that I assume is for handling the hash, but I think it is better served as an ice cream-tasting spoon.
My bowls burned a lot slower and tasted humongously hashy when laced with the space rocks. I’d just plop a drop atop a packed bowl, melt it down with some hemp wick and be off to the races. When smoking bowls souped-up with space rocks I could feel increased medical effects compared to just flower alone.
While I like them both, if I had to choose between space or moon rocks, I’d go with space rocks. I liked they way they melted atop the bowl. I do love the combo of bubble hash and rosin with the moon rocks, but the space rocks just seemed so incredibly hashy. It seemed like they barely contained any flower.
I gave the space rocks from Riviera Creek a 7 for taste, 4 for harshness, 8 for strength, 6 for smell strength and 60 minutes for length of medical effects.
