THCA flower is a fantastic legal alternative to weed, being totally compliant with the law while ultimately offering the same concentrations of delta 9 THC that you’ll find in your favorite strains. THCA flower is just raw hemp flower buds that are infused with a purified THCA distillate, with THCA being the raw form of delta 9. Once the flower is heated, as it must be before use, the THCA converts into delta 9 to offer the cannabinoid’s legendary high and potential benefits.
The most traditional way to enjoy THCA flower is to smoke it, but the market for cannabis products has evolved a lot over the years, and enthusiasts have more options than ever before when it comes to how they want to use this product. Let’s take a look at all of them, so you can decide which method is best for you.

Smoking THCA Flower
The first and most popular option is smoking THCA flower. Smoking the flower offers a fast-acting high that lasts for a couple of hours, and it’s the most potent method of consuming THCA flower because of how bioavailable it is. There are a few ways to smoke flower, and a few different kinds of smokable THCA flower products that you can buy, so let’s break down each one.
Loose Buds
First, we have loose buds, which is the most common form for any cannabis THCA flower product. The buds usually come in a bag or jar, and most people prefer to grind them up before smoking them for even burning.
There are a couple of ways to smoke loose buds. One is by rolling them into papers, like joint papers or a blunt wrap. You can also put them inside of a pipe to smoke them, or smoke them out of a bong, which is a much larger device that produces a lot of smoke per hit. Because of that, bong hits (“bong rips”) are gonna offer a super-potent high THCA, so go easy.
THCA Pre-Rolls
You can also buy pre-rolls, which do the work for you. Pre-rolls consist of ground up THCA flower rolled into paper – usually hemp leaf – so that you can just open up the package and light it up to enjoy. Pre-rolls usually contain at least a full gram of flower.
THCA Joints
THCA flower joints are technically pre-rolls too, except they’re smaller in size, and more of a single-serving type of product as opposed to the larger pre-rolls that can last through multiple smoking sessions. Joints are usually made with traditional joint paper as opposed to hemp leaf.
THCA Moonrocks
THCA Moonrocks are loose THCA flower buds that are rolled in kief – the powdery residue that falls off of the trichomes that coat the flower. Kief is super potent in cannabinoids and terpenes, being the concentrated trichome powder that it is, and so moonrocks basically offer a boost in potency. They can be smoked like regular flower, or even found in a pre-roll form.
Vaping THCA Flower
More and more people are choosing to vape their THCA flower, thanks to the advanced vaping technology that’s everywhere these days. Vaping THCA flower is a lot like smoking it – after all, it’s the same delivery method – but the effects may be just a bit less potent because of the high water content of vapor, compared to smoke.
Vaping flower is also more discreet, since vapor dissipates more quickly, while being easier on the respiratory tract, to reduce coughing. There are two categories of vaporizers with which you can enjoy your THCA flower.
Category #1: Portable Vaporizers
Portable vaporizers refer to handheld vaporizers that you can take with you anywhere. They involve a battery component and a chamber into which the flower is placed. Then, through a process of either conduction or convection, the THCA flower is heated to vaporize its compounds. You can find all kinds of models out there, ranging in size, customizable output, and more.
Category #2: Desktop Vaporizers
Desktop vaporizers are larger devices that sit on a surface. They aren’t easily transported around either. Desktop vaporizers are sort like bongs, in that they produce huge hits of vapor as opposed to portable designs. Once again then, you’d want to go easier when operating one of these types of devices.
Dabbing THCA Flower
Dabbing is quite similar to vaping, as it also decarboxylates THCA into vital THC at a moderate low heat setting. Crystalline is the THCA form most likely to be used for dabbing. In general, dabbing THCA supplies identical effects as those of dabbing traditional THC. The 400°F+ temperatures used to dab cannabis concentrate are plenty sufficient to accomplish this conversion.
Making THCA Flower Edibles
You can also use THCA flower to make homemade edibles, as many people do. This is a bit more involved, but totally worth it if you like the idea of a high that lasts for up to 8 hours, with profound body and cerebral effects. THCA flower edibles can take up to 2 hours to really kick in, so don’t be surprised if you need to wait a bit before you feel high.
Making edibles from THCA flower is a process that you’ll want to really execute properly for success. The general steps are as follows.
- Decarboxylate the THCA flower in the oven at a low temperature, to convert the THCA in the flower into delta 9 THC.
- Infuse the flower into butter (or a plant-based alternative) by simmering the decarboxylated flower buds in the butter at a low heat for a couple of hours.
- Strain the butter so that the bits of flower aren’t in there. Discard the flower bits.
- Find a recipe for edibles, and just follow it carefully. Edibles recipes will take into account dosing to ensure that each serving of the recipe contains the ideal amount of delta 9 THC, so you don’t get too high, but still get the effects that you want.
