What Is Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)?

Buried deep inside the cannabis plant, past all the sticky buds and aromatic flowers, lives a host of molecules that deliver a suite of unique, fun-fueling effects. This, ladies and germs, is where we’ll find what’s gonna get you baked, sunny-side up. Everyone, let’s welcome the cannabinoids. There are over a hundred of these little fellas, each one offering their own unique effects on your mind and body. Some promote calming, good vibes, others drag out the yawns, gettin’ you nice and tired, and only one gets you absolutely, positively, unequivocally lit—sunny-side up.

Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the cannabinoid for electric vibes, good times, and red eyes. It’s the little molecule that packs a super-power punch of velvety euphoria, and it comes in a suite of gummies, vapes, syrups, and loud, proud prerolls. 

What ’bout Delta-9 THC?

Now, pause a moment. Isn’t THC just another name for delta-9 THC? Well, that depends on who you ask. Many in the cannabis market use it interchangeably; they say it’s the exact same thing. Well, newsflash: It ain’t. Delta 9 THC is a form of THC, a little molecule that branches out under the umbrella of THC. “THC” comes in many forms—all of which deliver their own list of unique effects. Delta 9 THC is the primary psychoactive compound found in cannabis, the most notorious psychoactive cannabinoid. 

D9 vs. D8

And that, my fellow canna-cosmonauts, leads us to our next stop along this journey: other forms of THC. Yes, of course, delta-9 THC is the most popular, most prevalent cannabinoid of the bunch, but it ain’t the only one—and it certainly ain’t the only psychoactive one. There are a myriad of other complementary psychoactive THC molecules nestled under the THC umbrella, and the most iconic may certainly be delta 8 THC. 

Delta 8 THC exists in most (if not all) cannabis strains. So, if you’ve cheefed the ganja before or dabbled with cannabis edibles, you’ve no doubt felt the faint effects of delta 8 THC. Often, these little delta 8 cerebral sprinkles are vastly outshined by the super-star sibling, delta-9 THC. But on its own, delta 8 THC delivers some pretty trippy, pretty fantastic effects—ones that many say are slightly more muted than delta-9 THC. So, if the euphoria of delta-9 THC is a tad too wham-bam-thank-you-ma’am, delta 8 THC products are prolly perfect for ya’!

Even More Alternative Cannabinoids

Now, delta 8 THC isn’t alone. Believe it or not, this lesser-known, hemp-based bad boi is among a group of alternative cannabinoids. Each of these rising stars gets you properly lit, casting your mind into a unique shade of euphoria. Take HHC, for instance. This cannabinoid is a chemical off-shoot of THC. If we were to view this cannabinoid in a microscope, it’d look awfully similar to delta-9 THC. But with one small change. HHC is a hydrogenated form of THC, toting a double hydrogen bond along for the ride. This small change brings a world of difference, often propelling you into a stronger, more energetic, psychoactive ride. 

Or THC-P, another fan-favorite cannabinoid. While the jury is still out on it (prolly getting baked in the jury room), initial thoughts say THC-P is 33 times more potent than standard delta-9 THC. And, we already know what you’re thinking. Yes, we’ve found a ton of creative ways to use THC-P in our gummies and vapes. 

D9’s Party-Hearty Effects

Now, with all that cannabis science crammed into your pretty little head, it’s time to talk about what everyone wants to know: effects. Does delta-9 THC get you baked, buttered, and extra crispy? Well, yeah, of course it does! Like every other THC molecule, delta-9 THC delivers unique psychoactive effects that stretch from your mind to your body and wrap you in a deep purple cloud of bliss. 

But, as with any psychoactive substance, effects are gonna vary from person to person. You may feel lit, your friend may feel elevated, and the random townie you befriended last night may feel peppered with passion. So, dive into this wormhole with an open mind.

D9 vs. Magic Mushrooms

Did you notice that we mentioned other psychoactive substances up there? Do you have an idea what we were hinting at? Oh baby, yes, we were mentioning magic mushrooms and their iconic body-buzzing effects. Our magic mushroom products mirror the effects of classic shrooms by using a proprietary blend of legal mushroom extracts. These puppies aren’t as head-heavy as delta-9 THC. Instead, they deliver a mild cerebral buzz that quickly unfolds into a deep body tingle that’s sure to bring the giggles. You can enjoy these goodies in gummies, vapes, syrups, and chocolate bars 

How to Enjoy Use D9

Alright, now we know it’s been a lot of ra-ra up until this point; now, you just wanna get started! So, how does one get to know delta-9 THC on, like, a more personal level? Well, let’s see.
