What is THCa?

All weed in the world is THCa! THCa is the name of the inactive chemical on cured cannabis. It is the reason one cannot just eat a nug and get high, but must use a lighter! It is also federally legal! Visit us to learn more, and for a directory!

• THCa is NOT synthetic
• THCa is NOT grown differently
• THCa is NOT harvested differently
• THCa is NOT cured differently

• “THCa Flower” is what you have always smoked.
• THCa is the inactive form found on the plant before smoking. Therefore, this applies to concentrates too.
  • This is why you have never been able to just eat a raw nug and get high. Heat is needed to convert the THCa to D9THC.
  • Once you use a lighter or prepare in a stove, it activates to Delta‑9. Anyone who has made edibles is familiar with this.
  • This is WHY it is legal! The law cares about the psychoactive form!
• We only specify the “a” now to separate it from the active form, Delta‑9, which is federally illegal.
• FEDERALLY LEGAL as having <0.3% Delta‑9 THC is now a “Hemp Product”.

Thus, High THCa means High Delta‑9.

• Federally Legal means you can get it shipped to your house between states legally.
• Price shop from vendors who live in states with less taxes. Meaning you pay less for better quality
• Now that it is a country‑wide competitive scene, quality matters more to capture/keep clientele.
• Illegal smoke shops can turn legal. (See below)
• Illegal grow ops can turn legal. (See below)
• Both of the above, selling a “hemp product” rather than “recreational cannabis” makes them even _more legal than a dispensary, which is still capable of being federally seized!_
• Farms/Vendors can sell across the states, especially to cities.

Yes, it sounds too good to be true. Aren’t loopholes beautiful? The caveat is: Rarely, some strains produce more than 0.3% Delta‑9 THC—say, 0.4–0.8%. Those would not be considered legal by these standards. These strains are rare, however.
