How Are THCA Diamonds Made?

THCA diamonds are created by separating THCA from other cannabinoids in the cannabis plant and concentrating it into a highly pure form. The concentrate then crystallizes into the diamonds that give this product its name. This process has many methods, depending on whether it’s done commercially or at home.

Here’s an overview of a THCA diamond extraction method using solvents:

Extraction

Fresh, frozen THCA flower is mixed with a solvent (usually butane or propane) to extract the cannabinoids and terpenes.

Filtration

The resulting solution is filtered to remove plant material and impurities.

Solvent Removal

Most of the solvent is evaporated, leaving behind a concentrated cannabis extract.

Crystallization

The distillate is placed in a sealed container for several weeks, known as “diamond mining.” During this time, THCA begins to form crystals that resemble diamonds.

Separation

Once crystals have formed, the container is opened, and the crystal THCA is separated from the leftover liquid (called “sauce,” which contains terpenes and other cannabinoids).

Purging

Any remaining solvent is removed from the crystals, typically using a special vacuum oven.

Refinement

The THCA crystals may undergo additional crystallization cycles to yield some of the purest forms of THCA.

Testing and Packaging

Finally, the product is tested for potency and purity before being packaged for sale. This step ensures that only the highest quality THCA diamonds reach consumers.

Will THCA Diamonds Get Me High?

Yes! THCA diamonds will get you high! While THCa itself is non-psychoactive, when heated, it decarboxylates and turns into psychoactive delta-9 THC. So whether you’re dabbing, vaping, or sprinkling THCA diamonds onto a bowl or joint, you’re in for a wild ride.

In fact, due to their high THC levels after decarboxylation (70% to 90%, sometimes up to 99%), THCA diamonds are known for being one of the most potent and longest-lasting highs in the cannabis world.

This is why THCA diamonds are highly sought after by cannabis enthusiasts with high tolerance and a sense of adventure. But even if you are an experienced consumer, you should approach THCA diamonds with caution and start with small amounts until you know your tolerance.

How To Smoke THCA Diamonds?

You can enjoy THCA diamonds in many ways. Still, smoking is often preferred by many as it is the easiest way to activate the psychoactive effects. Let’s look at a few ways you can smoke THCA diamonds.

Dab Rig / Dabbing

Dabbing is one of the most popular ways to smoke THCA diamonds. It involves heating a nail—usually made of quartz, titanium, or ceramic—with a torch. Then, you place a small amount of concentrate on the hot surface to vaporize it.

Dabbing delivers an instant and intense high that hits hard and fast. It’s perfect for experienced users who want a strong and quick experience.

How to Dab THCA Diamonds

• Heat the Nail: Use a torch to heat the nail until it’s red hot.
• Cool Down: Let it cool for about 30-45 seconds.
• Add Diamonds: Use a dab tool to place a small amount of diamonds on the nail.
• Inhale: Slowly inhale through the mouthpiece of the dab rig as the diamonds vaporize.
• Cover with Carb Cap: Cover the nail with a carb cap after inhaling to trap heat and enhance vaporization.
  

Vaporizing

Another way to enjoy THCa diamonds is to vaporize them with a concentrate vaporizer or e-rig. These devices heat the diamonds just enough to release the good stuff without combusting, giving you smooth, flavorful vapor.

Vaporizing diamonds gives you a more gradual, longer-lasting experience than dabbing but is still super potent. Great for those looking for a more measured high.

It’s generally considered a healthier option since you’re not inhaling harmful combustion byproducts.

How to Vaporize THCA Diamonds

• Load the Chamber: Place small diamonds into your vaporizer chamber.
• Set the Temperature: Adjust the temperature, typically between 315-450°F.
• Heat Up: Wait for the device to reach the desired temperature.
• Inhale: Take slow, gentle breaths when you see vapor forming.
• Enjoy: Savor the smooth and flavorful hits!
  

Add To Blunts And Joints

If you like the old-school smoking experience, sprinkling a small amount of diamond dust onto some flower before rolling it up into a blunt or joint will supercharge its potency.

This way, you can enjoy the flavors and effects of your favorite strains but take them to new heights.

How to Smoke THCA Diamonds with Blunts and Joints

• Grind Your Flower: Start by grinding your cannabis flower.
• Add THCA Diamonds: Sprinkle a small amount of crushed THCA diamonds over the ground flower.
• Mix It Up: Gently mix to distribute the diamonds evenly.
• Roll It: Roll your joint or blunt as you usually would.
• Light and Enjoy: Light it up and take a puff!
• Feel the Boost: Experience the extra potency and enjoy the enhanced effects!
  

Bong

Another option is to load a small dab of diamonds into a water pipe or bong bowl and light it up. You can also use them as a topper for your favorite strain. The water filtration cools and filters the smoke, giving you a smoother hit than a dry pipe.

Using THCA diamonds with a bong is suitable for group sessions, as you can stretch a small amount of diamonds over multiple hits.

How to Smoke THCA Diamonds with a Bong

• Fill the Bong: Start by adding water to the bong.
• Pack the Bowl (Optional): If you want, pack the bowl with some flower.
• Add Diamonds: Place a small amount of THCA diamonds on the flower.
• Light and Inhale: Light the bowl and inhale slowly.
• Enjoy the Smoothness: The water will filter the smoke, giving you a smoother hit.
  

Glass Pipe

If you’re looking for a quick and easy way to enjoy THCa diamonds, a glass pipe is perfect! These pipes are discreet, portable, and don’t need any extra accessories, making them super convenient.

How to Smoke THCa Diamonds with a Glass Pipe:

• Load the Bowl: Start by placing a small amount of THCA diamonds in the bowl of your glass pipe.
• Heat It: Use a torch lighter to heat the diamonds until they vaporize gently.
• Inhale: Take a slow, steady inhale as the diamonds become vapor.
• Hold and Exhale: Hold the vapor in briefly, then exhale smoothly.
• Enjoy Responsibly: Repeat as desired, but remember to take it easy—those diamonds pack a powerful punch!
  

THCA Diamond vs. THC Diamonds

Many cannabis enthusiasts often confuse THCA diamonds with THC diamonds, assuming they are the same thing. However, they are two distinct concentrates.

So, what’s the difference?

• THCA Diamonds:
• It is made up of almost pure tetrahydrocannabinol acid (THCA), which is the non-psychoactive precursor to THC.
• These diamonds are the unprocessed form of the cannabinoid and require heat activation to convert into psychoactive delta-9 THC, which produces a high.
• THC Diamonds:
• It is derived from the additional processing of THCA diamonds.
• Through decarboxylation, the THCA in these diamonds has already been converted into delta-9 THC. This means they can produce a high immediately upon ingestion without extra heat.

THCA diamonds are often considered more potent because they contain a higher overall cannabinoid content before decarboxylation. However, when heated, both options will get you high, as you will be inhaling THC either way.
