Frequently Asked Questions
THCa Flower refers to unprocessed, raw buds containing high percentages of THCa – otherwise known by its full name, tetrahydrocannabinolic acid.
Not a huge amount, actually. Without getting too deep into the science, THCa is simply the precursor to THC. It is a compound that converts to THC when exposed to heat. When heat is applied to THCa flowers, the THCa decarboxylates, resulting in it losing one of its carboxyl groups and converting into THC. THC has a very similar structure to anandamide, one of the cannabinoids that naturally occur in the human body, making it very easily absorbed by our systems.
That really depends on where you live. Although the FDA does not explicitly ban the production and sale of THCa flowers – which essentially makes THCa flowers legal at the federal level – certain states do ban it. This is due to the fact that THCa is the precursor to THC. At the time of writing, there are only four states within the continental United States that explicitly ban THCa flower – OR, ID, MN, and AR.
So, if you live outside these four states, buying and possessing THCa flower is legal!
High THC-a flower is simply just that, cannabis flower containing a high amount of THCa. For a flower to be classed as “high THCa”, it needs to test out at above 1% THCa.
Well for starters, in their raw, un-decarbed form they allow you to enjoy the natural benefits of cannabis.
Purchasing THCa hemp flower is convenient, easy, and safe thanks to its legal standing. You can get THCa hemp flowers delivered directly to your doorstep.
