Terps defitinitely are a liquid consistency, ....
Besides anecdotal evidence, do you have any technical date to support this claim?
All the "boiling" point data I've seen is comparable to that of the cannabinoids. Definitely higher than the boiling point of water at stp..
Limonene, a terpene common in many marijuana strains is a liquid at room temperature. It can be bought online and some oil-makers (not me) add it to their extracts to add flavor. I'm sure there are several others sesquiterpenes and monoterpenes that are liquid at room temperature.

The mono terpenes and sesquiterpenes are smaller molecules than the di-terpene cannabinoids, and can add to the liquidity of the puddle. Some are alcohols, ethers, aldehydes, ketones, esters, etc, with high vapor pressure, that readily sublimate away far below their boiling points.
Why would you think that they are not miscible? They are just lighter molecules that boil off at a lower temperature. Also I believe sublimating refers to a solid going straight to gas like dry ice. If they are liquid already then they boil not sublimate.Hmm, the fact they are sublimating implies that they aren't entirely miscible in the solvent. But they're np --- such as the solvent.
this terminology is a joke. "live" resin, pshaw...
I was under the impression that these live plant runs.. were not trimmed lol.. I think that's a waste of time honestly.
Balsam is a solution of plant-specific resins in plant-specific solvents (essential oils). (wiki)
It is strange that I have never met the use of this term to cannabis.
