Certainly you must have heard of 4/20, but have you heard about 7/10? April 20th, aka 4/20, is a day that has gained tremendous popularity even outside the cannabis world. On this day, <a href="https://weedzly.com/library/what-is-420">cannabis lovers come out in droves to celebrate weed</a> and its culture.
But in recent years, another cannabis holiday has been established, and is quickly becoming the world's second-biggest weed-based holiday. July 10th, abbreviated as 7/10, is 4/20s little cousin. This new holiday has also been nicknamed Oil Day or Dab Day.&nbsp;

<h3 id="0">7/10: Oil Day</h3>
July 10th or 710 is a stoners holiday, created in celebration of cannabis oil. On this day, stoners express their support for cannabis oil by consuming dabs and concentrates to the full extent of their desires. Now, if you rotate 710 upsides down, it spells OIL- (go on, rotate your screen, no one's watching- I promise).
Cannabis Oil is used in the production of concentrates like hash, wax, shatter, crumble, budder, amber, and honeycomb.&nbsp; On this day, celebrations take place at exactly 7:10 am or 7:10 pm.
Though this holiday is still relatively new as celebrations are reported to have only started in 2012, you may find some dispensaries and stores giving their customers discounts in honor of the occasion.

<h3 id="1">How Did 7/10 Begin?</h3>
Even though 710 or 'The Dabs Day' has been around for nearly a decade now, its actual origin is still a bit unclear. Research shows that its first appearance in the Urban Dictionary was in 2011, with the first reported 710 celebration in 2012.
Still, no one has proved or officially claimed ownership of the term 710 in relation to cannabis oil. However, all credit currently goes to a rapper called TaskRok. During an interview, TaskRok claimed to have come up with the term in a chat room with his industry peers.
In the chat, the group was fussing about the need for a specific time to use dabs. According to reports, TaskRok suggested 710 since it reads 'OIL' when flipped upside down, and the name came to be. TaskRok, however, does not claim ownership of 710 and he says, "it belongs to the community now."
Today, 710&nbsp; has gained popularity with both the press and consumers. It will even become more popular as people continue accepting cannabis and the stigma around dabbing airs out.

<h3 id="2">What Must You Have To Celebrate 7/10?</h3>
Previously, partakers in 7/10 needed to carry around a considerable amount of tools. To take dabs, smokers had to hook up their dab rigs and fire up their e nails. But nowadays, the <a href="https://weedzly.com/library/different-ways-of-vaping">dabbing technology</a> has evolved and become much more convenient. You only need a vape pen or a <a href="https://weedzly.com/library/different-ways-of-vaping">portable wax vaporizer</a> to enjoy your concentrate of choice.
Check out <a href="https://weedzly.com/deals">dispensaries that are giving discounts</a> on hash, wax, shatter, budder, and more. When 10th July comes, remember to consume your favorite concentrate at 7:10 am/pm.
