Settle in space cadet; HHC is a potent, euphoria-rich cannabinoid that’s an expert at chauffeuring fun-filled Friday nights and delightful days off. You’re gonna wanna strap in for this one. (She’s pretty powerful.) Coming to you in fruit-flavored gummies, perfectly crafted prerolls, psychoactive syrups, or pocket-sized vape pens, HHC takes the posse to the Moon, the stars, or the aliens’ backyard before reeling you back to Earth like a Big Ole Tuna, safely returning you to your regularly scheduled programs.
But what is HHC exactly? How does it compete with standard, traditional THC, and how do you properly welcome this cannabinoid into your daily routine? Here, we’ll answer all these questions and more, giving you all the nebula know-how to get baked, buttered, and extra crispy with the celestial standout: HHC.
What in the World Is HHC?
In labs, they call it “Hexahydrocannabinol,” but here, we just shorten it to HHC. This unsuspecting compound is a semi-synthetic cannabinoid derived from hemp. It’s also an analog to THC, cannabis’ iconic psychoactive cannabinoid. You know THC for its party-hearty effects and mind-bending euphoria. HHC is similar but takes the mind down a different wormhole, en route to all new celestial vistas. To get there, HHC first has to go through a unique extraction process.
We start with tiny, potent li’l hemp buds. They look so cute up close. We pass these buds through a series of filtration methods, all to get our hands on its ooey-gooey extract. This extract is teeming with hemp-based cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids—all the little molecules that give cannabis its aromatics and lunar-launching effects. In this honey-hued extract, you won’t find any HHC molecules. We have to isolate THC molecules in the extract and hydrogenate them, creating sweet and psychoactive HHC. Hydrogenation is a simple process where hydrogen molecules form a double bond to the THC molecule; it’s the same process vegetable oil takes to become margarine.
Now, with this new chemical structure, does HHC feel similar to THC?
What Are HHC’s Effects?
Oh yeah, HHC still gets you baked and buttered, sunny side up. But it feels … well, it feels different. Many users say the effects HHC offers are more energetic than delta 9 or delta 8 THC. Others say HHC helps ’em sleep. Some adults report feeling more creative on HHC, while others say HHC locks them in a mindless euphoria that pairs best with Court TV. So, effects from HHC really vary from person to person. But you’ll still get baked. Oh, you’ll definitely still get baked. (And that’s what matters most, right?)
