Delta 8-THC
What is Delta 8-THC?
Delta 8-THC or Delta 8-Tetrahydrocannabinol is a new, cutting edge cannabinoid (derived from Hemp) which carries psychoactive effects and euphoric feelings associated with the typical properties associated with cannabis use. Additionally, Delta 8-THC is known for its anti-nausea, anti-anxiety, appetite stimulating and stress reducing properties.
What are the effects of Delta 8-THC?
Delta 8-THC is a young cannabinoid, as a result there are no definite studies of the long-term effects of Delta 8-THC. However, while using Delta 8-THC, consumers have experience the following: Relaxed, Happy, Uplifted, Relieved and Focused.
What is Delta 9-THC?
Delta 9-THC or Delta 9-Tetrahydrocannabinol is the traditional version of THC and is the active ingredient in the Marijuana plant. This cannabinoid is responsible for the psychoactive effects experienced after consuming a marijuana product and is currently federally illegal and illegal in most states.
What is the difference in Delta 8-THC and Delta 9-THC?
The main difference in Delta 8-THC and Delta 9-THC is federal and state legality. Delta 8-THC is fully federally legal and legal 41 states, while Delta 9-THC is federally illegal and illegal in most states. Both Delta 8-THC and Delta 9-THC produce euphoric psychoactive effects on users and carry a wide variety of medical and recreational benefits.
What makes Delta 8-THC the superior form of THC?
Delta 8-THC is superior to the traditional and illegal Delta 9-THC because it carries basically every benefit and effect of Delta 9-THC but is fully federally legal and legal in 41 states in the United States.
How is Delta 8-THC legal to produce and sell in the USA?
Since products contain only Delta 8-THC made from 100% Hemp extract, companies are able to fully legally manufacture, distribute and sell to consumers in the United States. Thanks to the H.R.2 - Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018, ratified and signed into law in December 2018, Cannabis containing less than 0.3% Delta 9-THC is legally classified as Hemp and thus is legal for all intents and purposes under federal law. Let’s also not forget, THC itself isn’t federally illegal, only specifically Delta 9-THC is.
What is the difference between CBD and THC?
The difference in CBD (Cannabidiol) and THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) is that CBD doesn’t carry the psychoactive effects that THC does. CBD can be used for numerous health reasons but it will never give the consumer the psychoactive effects that Delta 8 and Delta 9 would provide. THC carries most, if not all benefits of CBD, but also introduces the “high” euphoric feeling which can be hugely beneficial for many users.
What does “Hemp Derived THC” mean?
“Hemp Derived THC” means that the THC is entirely produced from Hemp. Under the H.R.2 - Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018, which clarifies that “Hemp” is any cannabis plant containing less than 0.3% Delta 9-THC, Hemp is federally legal for all purposes under federal law. Marijuana or any cannabis plant containing more than 0.3% Delta 9-THC is not used in any “Hemp Derived THC” product.
What is Delta 8 THC Flower?
Delta 8 THC Flower refers to a specific component of the hemp plant that has been meticulously cultivated and processed to contain elevated levels of Delta 8 THC, a cannabinoid known for its psychoactive effects albeit milder than Delta 9 THC.

Delta 8 THC Flower typically contains a range of cannabinoids and terpenes found naturally in the hemp plant, contributing to what's commonly referred to as the "entourage effect."
