What Our Buddies Ask
What is THCA?
THCA (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid) is the natural, non-intoxicating compound found abundantly in raw hemp plants. It's essentially the "parent" compound that, when exposed to heat, converts to THC. This natural cannabinoid offers its own unique properties while remaining non-psychoactive in its raw state.
Yes, hemp-derived THCA products containing less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC are federally compliant under the 2018 Farm Bill. All Relief Buddies products meet these federal standards. However, since state and local regulations can vary, we always recommend checking your specific local laws if you're concerned about compliance in your area.
Yes, it will get you "high" when THCA is transformed into THC through heat—whether from smoking, vaping, or cooking. It does produce the same psychoactive effects, but has an average of less than .2% Delta-9 THC than marijuana does to be compliant with the 2018 Farm Bill to be less than .3% Delta-9 THC. This transformation process, called decarboxylation, changes the molecular structure and activates the compound's psychoactive properties.
THCA (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid) is the natural, non-intoxicating compound found in fresh hemp plants, while THC is its activated, psychoactive form. Think of THCA as the "precursor" that only converts to THC when exposed to heat. This is why raw cannabis doesn't produce intoxicating effects, but smoking or heating it does—the heat triggers that crucial conversion from THCA to THC.
No, these are different compounds with distinct properties. Delta-9 THC is the well-known psychoactive component that produces the cannabis "high" while THCA is its non-intoxicating, acidic precursor found naturally in the plant. While they're chemically related—THCA converts to Delta-9 THC when heated—they have fundamentally different effects on the body. THCA only becomes psychoactive after being transformed through heat.
When you smoke THCA-rich hemp flower, you're essentially converting that THCA into THC during the heating process, which will produce psychoactive effects. While legal THCA products meet federal compliance standards, it's essential to understand this conversion occurs during smoking. As with any hemp product, we recommend using it responsibly, starting with small amounts and being mindful of your tolerance and response.
