THCa Flower

What is THCa Flower?

THCa flower is bud that’s been grown to have super high levels of THCa. A lot of THCa flower, like everything we carry here at Bay Smokes, has less than 0.3% regular THC — so it’s technically hemp and technically legal under the 2018 Farm Bill. That’s great news for those of us who don’t live in legal states or who just want even more options when it comes to weed!

THCa is a cannabinoid that’s found naturally in hemp and marijuana plants. THCa turns into Delta-9 THC when you add heat. This process is also known as decarboxylation. You probably already know all about decarbing flower — it’s what you do when you smoke, vaporize, or make edibles. Just smoking THCa flowe will give you the same effects as your regular delta 9 cannabis

That’s also why eating raw flower won’t get you high, but smoking it or baking it into brownies will give you the psychoactive effects. Raw flower is super high in THCa. 

Bay Smokes THCa flower is all-natural, 100% organically grown, and contains no additives. It’s just pure hemp flower that’s been grown, harvested, and packaged with care. 

THCA flower is just like regular cannabis flower you buy at the dispensary, but it’s sold under a THCA hemp license. THCA flower when burned converts into Delta 9 THC and gives you your favorite delta 9 high. Our THCA flower is high percentages of THCA so you will use even less cannabis flower than you usually do as well! You can legally buy THCA online and have it shipped to your house. All of our THCA flower is fully organic, 100% natural, and lab tested. We have over 20 strains to choose from of indica, sativa, and hybrid THCa flower. Shop Our THCA Products Today!

Will THCa Flower Get Me High?

We know you’ve been waiting for this one — yes, THCa flower will get you high! It has less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC, but a lot of THCa. THCa turns into D9 when you smoke it, use it in a vaporizer, or use it to make edibles. 

Is THCa Flower As Strong As Regular Weed?

THCa flower could be a little stronger or a little weaker than “regular” weed, depending on the THC levels in the flower you’re used to. That being said, THCa flower is powerful stuff and generally speaking, it’s pretty much chemically identical to conventional cannabis. Make sure to take it low and slow the first time you try THCa until you know what to expect. If you are new to cannabis, we suggest one of our less strong cannabis products such as CBD flower.

What Does THCa Flower Feel Like?

Because THCa turns into regular Delta-9 THC when it gets heated up, smoking THCa feels just like smoking D9.  Most people report feelings of euphoria and relaxation from Delta-9 THC, with a ton of other potential health and wellness benefits too. You can expect the same kinds of feelings from THCa flower, since it turns into “regular” THC when it’s heated up. 

How Strong is THCa Flower?

THCa is basically as strong as Delta-9 THC. It’s a super powerful cannabinoid, so take it low and slow when you first try it. THCa converts to delta-9 THC at about an 87% rate. So 10% of THCa would equal 8.7% of Delta9. Cheers!

How Do I Use THCa Flower?

You can use THCa cannabis flower just like you use any kind of bud. Grind it up, pack it into a bowl or bong, roll a blunt or a joint, or use it to make homemade edibles. You can also use it in a vaporizer, bubbler, or whatever your favorite way to smoke is. 

You can even mix and match THCa flower with other Bay Smokes products to customize your smoking experience. Try mixing it with some CBD flower or Delta 8 flower, depending on what you’re looking for. You can even add some THCa diamonds on top to really kick things up a notch. 

 If you’ve haven’t been living under a rock, you’ll definitely know that Hemp-derived THCa has taken the world by storm. Thanks to its euphoric and blissful properties, weed enthusiasts have found innovative ways to enjoy this delightful loophole!  

As with any new cannabinoid product, it’s normal to be curious about what could be so special about THCa Flower. Most users have been raving about this product for both its recreational and medical benefits. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll be listing down everything you need to know about taking this small but powerful treat! 

What Is THCa Flower?

THCa flower is flower that’s been specially bred to have high levels of THCa. 

If THCa flower has less than 0.3% Delta 9 THC by dry weight, it’s federally legal under the 2018 Farm Bill. Good news — Bay Smokes THCa flower has less than 0.3% Delta 9 THC.

If you’re unfamiliar with the term Delta 9, you might be more acquainted with the more mainstream term that is THC, short for tetrahydrocannabinol. Delta 9 THC is one of the major psychoactive compounds that cannabis plants organically produce. Simply put, this compound is responsible for creating the feeling of being “high”. 

THCa Flower is natural flower, unlike delta 8 flower, THCa flower produces THCa naturally and does not require additional infusion.

THCa Flower vs. Regular Weed

What even is the difference between THCa and Delta 9 or regular weed? Scientifically, there is no difference. The product is basically identical. Legally, THCa hemp flower is grown with hemp genetics and by a grower with a hemp license. 

As for similarities, both of these naturally-occurring cannabinoids are extremely helpful in getting you high. THCa flower can be technically classified as hemp, since it contains less than 0.3% THC. That means it’s federally legal under the 2018 Farm Bill. THCa flower is bred to have super high levels of THCa and still maintain federal compliance. 

Regular weed also has high levels of THCa, up to 20 or 30% in top-shelf strains. This kind of flower is only legal in some states. Weed is usually bred to have high levels of THCa and other cannabinoids, but “regular weed” is THCa Flower, since THCa turns into THC when you heat it. 

THCa flower is grown by farmers with a Hemp License, and regular weed or marijuana is grown by someone with a recreational or medical cannabis cultivation license. 

So when it’s on the plant or in your grinder, there is technically a little bit of a difference between THCa flower and regular weed. Once you heat it up to smoke it, vape it, or cook with it, though, there’s no difference between the two. We bet you’ll know what we mean as soon as you take that first puff from a THCa joint!

What are The Effects of THCa? 

Wondering what this miracle of nature feels like? As with many substances, it depends on a number of factors. For now, we can compare the sensations based on the dosage you’re taking. Relatively low doses such as 5-10 mg is known to produce anxiolytic effects, which is simply another word for anxiety-reducing sensations. You can expect to feel chilled out and calm with a sharper focus. If you’re curious about THC but still want to get things done during the day, then go for a lower dose that’ll allow you to still be relatively high-functioning. 

Is THCa Flower Natural?

Yes! THCa flower is all-natural. A lot of other kinds of legal cannabis flower have been infused with extracts. These extracts can be totally safe and still give you great-tasting bud (and an awesome high), but some people prefer it all natural. THCa flower is a great option if you’re looking for legal weed without any additives. As a bonus, all Bay Smokes THCa flower is organically-grown right here in the U.S. 

How Much THCa Should I Take?

This is a great question. THCa is basically just as strong as regular weed and might even be a little stronger, depending on what you’re used to smoking. 

When you first try THCa, it’s a good idea to take it low and slow. Start off with a couple of puffs from a joint, a small bong rip, or half of an infused edible. Once that has kicked in, you’ll know what your tolerance is like and you’ll be able to expertly dose yourself to get exactly as stoned as you want to. 

What Determines THCa Tolerance?

Your tolerance for THCa flower can depend on a lot of things. 

The most obvious factor is going to be how much weed you smoke! If you consume cannabis regularly, your tolerance is going to be higher. Remember that your tolerance for different cannabinoids might not carry over to other ones, though, so make sure to take it slow when you’re trying a new blend. 

Your tolerance for THCa can also depend on your size and body fat percentage. Cannabinoids are lipophilic, which means they stick to fat, not water. That means that weed might stay in your system for longer if you have a higher body fat percentage. 

There are a ton of other factors that go into your tolerance for THCa and other cannabinoids, but the last one we’ll talk about is how much you’ve eaten. Smoking or taking an edible on an empty stomach might give you a more intense experience (and amplify the munchies). Smoking or eating after a meal might feel totally different.

How Does THCa Work?

Whether you smoke weed or not, your body has what’s known as an endocannabinoid system. Your body makes some cannabinoids, called endocannabinoids. You can get other cannabinoids from plants (you know which one we’re talking about). Cannabinoids that come from plants are technically called phytocannabinoids, but a lot of people just call them cannabinoids. 

Your endocannabinoid system is partially made up of cannabinoid receptors. There are two known types of cannabinoid receptors, called CB1 and CB2. Things get a little complicated here, but basically, CB1 receptors are more responsible for “head highs” and CB2 receptors are more responsible for “body highs.” 

When you ingest cannabinoids, they stick to your cannabinoid receptors. THCa is good at sticking to your CB1 receptor especially, so it results in that “stoned” feeling that we all know and love. Other cannabinoids stick to different receptors in different ways, too.  

What to Look for When Buying THCa Flower

It’s super important to make sure that you’re buying high-quality cannabinoid products, especially when it comes to flower. 

The first thing you’ll want to look at is the quality of the flower itself. THCa flower should look just like regular weed. It should be anywhere from light to dark green — and sometimes a little bit purple. Some flower has little orange hairs on it (fun fact for your next smoke sesh: those are called pistils and they’re how weed plants get pollinated). High-quality bud sometimes has what looks like white frost on it, too. That “frosty” look is thanks to the trichomes, which have most of the cannabinoids and terpenes in them. 

You also need to make sure that the shop you’re buying THCa flower from has lab tests and COAs listed online. These will give you an overview of the cannabinoids in the flower and will tell you all about the safety of the flower, too — like whether it’s been tested for pesticides, mold, or fungus. 

Is THCa Flower Legal?

Yes! Since it contains less than 0.3% THC by dry weight, THCa flower is federally legal under the 2018 Farm Bill.

Some states have since gone back and specifically made THCa or other cannabinoids illegal, though, so you’ll have to check your local laws to make sure that you can legally smoke THCa flower.
