🧪 THCa & Cannabinoid Questions
What is THCa?
- A: Delta-9 Tetrahydrocannabinolic Acid (THCa) is a naturally occurring compound (phytocannabinoid) found in the raw cannabis plant.
- Non-Psychoactive (Raw): Raw THCa is non-intoxicating.
Conversion to THC: When THCa is exposed to heat (like smoking or vaping), it undergoes a process called decarboxylation, which converts it into the well-known psychoactive compound, Delta-9 THC. This conversion is what delivers the effects traditionally associated with cannabis.
Will THCa products get me high?
- Yes, when consumed via methods that involve heat (like smoking or vaping),the THCa converts to THC, which is the primary psychoactive compound in cannabis and is responsible for producing the euphoric sensation.
- Herban Hemp's Commitment: Herban Hemp only sells products that comply with
the 2018 Farm Bill's specification of containing less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC on a dry
weight basis before heating.
Is THCa legal?
The federal legality of THCa in the USA depends on its source and final THC content:
- Federally Legal: THCa derived from hemp that contains less than 0.3% Delta-
- THC on a dry weight basis is federally legal under the 2018 Farm Bill.
o State Laws Govern: Despite federal legality, some states have specific
regulations that restrict or prohibit THCa products. It is essential to check your
local and state laws, as they are subject to change.
Are Hemp and Marijuana the same plant?
Botanically, both "hemp" and "marijuana" are classified as Cannabis sativa. The
distinction is purely legal, based on the Delta-9 THC content:
- Hemp: Cannabis containing no more than 0.3% Delta-9 THC on a dry weight
basis (legal under the 2018 Farm Bill). - Marijuana: Cannabis containing more than 0.3% Delta-9 THC (federally
illegal and regulated by state laws).
What are Cannabinoids?
Cannabinoids are a diverse group of chemical compounds inherent to the Cannabis
sativa plant. They interact with receptors throughout the body and brain (the
Endocannabinoid System or ECS).
Three Primary Classes:
- Phytocannabinoids: Derived from the plant (e.g.,THC, CBD, THCa)
- Endocannabinoids: Produced naturally within the human body (e.g.,
Anandamide) - Synthetic Cannabinoids: Artificially manufactured compounds.
What is THCa Hash?
THCa Hash (or Rosin) is a concentrate extracted from the trichomes (resinous
glands) of the cannabis plant.
Processing: It is extracted using heat and pressure without the use of solvents or
chemicals. The result is a pure, butter-like concentrate rich in THCa.
How do I verify the THC content of your products?
We partner with an independent third-party lab to test all our hemp products,
ensuring they are Farm Bill compliant (under 0.3% Delta-9 THC).
Lab Reports (COAs): You can review the Certificate of Analysis (COA) on our Lab
Reports page or on the individual product pages. When reviewing a COA, look at
the Mass % column to see the detected levels of Delta-9 THC.
