Humboldt waxes...

I just tried humboldt wax (sour OG) for the first time and it tastes hella funny. Am I doing it wrong? I got a wax vapepen. I put in like 0.1-0.2g -- am I suppose to fill the cartridge all the way up?

Here are the pictures:

Note: this is not a review, it's just my first time "dabbing.." I find the flavor very repulsive: diesel/buttery, and it barely gets me high.

What kind of pen do you have?

The geographical source of the stuff doesn't matter, people make it wrong everywhere even in the reputed Emerald Triangle. Unfortunately there's no way to be absolutely sure of the quality/composition of your wax without running lab tests. However as a general rule, don't smoke it if it tastes unpleasant. It's never supposed to taste unpleasant. Check your coil, tear out the fiberglass if yours has some inside it. Is there any particulate matter in the wax? Odd coloration, green or dark brown/black perhaps?

that wax looks fine. i mean its not top shelf but there is nothing 'wrong' with it. if you paid less than 35 a g id say u got what u paid for

if you want to blast off with concentrates, you really need a rig....And especially not some shitty ass 'dab' pen, such as the one you have. You know the difference between vaping flower and taking a fat bong rip? Similar in this situation, too.

Lots of hate on dab pens in this thread. I agree that the one you have looks pretty shitty, but if you don't want to get a rig there are some pretty phenomenal pens on the market. Check out the yocan evolve or evolve plus: super flavorful rips, huge battery capacity with pass through functionality, doesn't get hot, really good airflow, the list goes on. Check out /r/waxpens or /r/portabledabs for a taste

Stick to an actual rig.

I don't know what exactly your rig is, but if it has a silica wick, I think that's likely what's causing the bad taste. I can run some quality oil that just tastes like a dream through my Hercules SR-74x, but if I try it on a silica wick, it will have some weird chemical taste.

IMO, if you don't want to spend big bucks on a quality vape pen, you are better off getting an enail or some sort of glass rig.

Try pulsating the battery or buy yourself a rig.

You might be slightly overheating it which can definitely lead it to taste bad. Low temp dabs always got that dank ass piney weed taste
