What Does THCA Do To The Brain?

Tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA) has quickly become a big deal on the hemp market, and it’s easy to see why.  THCA is a raw precursor cannabinoid, meaning that it’s the cannabinoid that’s found in raw cannabis, prior to the plant being heated.  When THCA is heated, through a deliberate process known as decarboxylation, it turns into delta 9 THC.

Tetrahydrocannabinolic acid has its own distinctive potential benefits, which are totally worthwhile, but it won’t get you high.  When THCA is decarboxylated, and turns into delta 9 THC, it gains the ability to bind to cannabinoid receptors in the body to offer different potential benefits, and of course, it becomes psychoactive, as we all know.

Now, THCA may confuse some people, since some products will get you high (vapes, flower, dabs) and some will not (gummies, tinctures, capsules, etc.).  Basically, any product that must be heated, like flower and vapes, mean that you’re actually getting post-decarboxylated THCA, aka delta 9 THC.  Products that are not heated to be used, like gummies, tinctures, and so on, mean that you’re getting THCA rather than delta 9.

How Can Someone Maximize Their THCA Experience?

If you’re new to tetrahydrocannabinolic acid, or even if you’re an experienced enthusiast, you may not know how to really maximize your experience with THCA.  So, here are some easy steps on how to make the most of this exciting addition to the hemp market.

Step #1: Decide What Kind of THCA Experience You Want 

Initially, ask yourself what you want out of THCA, more so than with any other cannabinoid.  Again, it’s because of the fact that there are two ways to experience THCA, one being the raw cannabinoid precursor, and the other being delta 9 THC, which comes with entirely different properties.  Deciding which of the two experiences you desire will determine the product type you should buy, how you should take it, how much you should consume, and so on.

Step #2: Select the Delivery Method/Product Type 

This is a crucial step, because the delivery method or product type you select will influence now only your experience, but also if it’s even worth it or not.

• THCA Vapes: These include vape carts and disposables, will actually provide you with delta 9, since these products undergo a heating process when vaporized.  They’re more discreet than smoking flower, and typically more travel-friendly as well.  Vaping this kind of product will give you fast-acting, potent, and short-lived effects, with a high that usually kicks in within about 5-15 minutes, lasting for up to roughly 3 hours.
• THCA Flower: Raw hemp flower infused with THCA distillate in the same concentration as exists in cannabis strains, is a lot like, well, smoking weed.  That’s a big part of its appeal, and flower is typically a bit more potent than vapes, because of the higher density of smoke vs. vapor.  Of course, flower can also be vaporized, or baked with if you feel like making some delta 9 edibles. 
• THCA Dabs: Basally, these are concentrates, which’re extremely potent products meant for dabbing – done through a high-temp vaporizer system.  THCA dabs are easily going to get you the most high out of any product type, and they tend to come in a nice strain selection just like vapes and flower.
• THCA Tinctures: Tinctures do not decarboxylated through a heating system.  So, no matter how much you take, you won’t get high.  But, you will be giving your body a wide array of valuable effects that can last for up to 6 hours.
• THCA Edibles: Similar to tinctures, edibles aren’t providing any psychoactive effects, but instead, the valuable properties of pure tetrahydrocannabinolic acid.  THCA edibles like gummies, candies, or even baked goods, can produce effects that last for up to 8 hours.  Still, keep in mind, it can take up to a couple hours for THCA to really start working in the system.

Step #3: Choose Your Strain 

If you’re looking at a product type that comes in a number of strains, like flower, vapes, or dabs, you’ll want to make a point to choose the best strain for your particular needs, as each one can offer a different type of high.  Besides the fact that some strains are increasingly potent than others, which matters since you’re actually getting delta 9, there are 3 categories of strains to take into consideration: 

• Indica Strains: More mellowing and produce a stronger, sometimes couchlock-inducing body high.
• Sativa Strains: More uplifting and can make you feel sociable, creative or energized.
• Hybrid Strains: Simply a mix between the two, however, there are strains that can be classified as either:

• Balanced Hybrids (50/50)
• Slightly Indicia Leaning
• Slightly Sativa Leaning
• Indica-Dominant
• Sativa Dominant

Step #4: Dose Wisely 

Yes, consider the amount you’re going to take, whether you’re going with THCA or delta 9 THC depending on the product type.  Especially, if you’re opting for the psychoactive route with a THCA product that turns the cannabinoid into delta 9, as you never know how a new cannabinoid will affect you.  We encourage you then, to go with that said recommended dosage on the package’s label. 

Usually takes beginners into account, or even split that THCA dosage in half if you know you have a generally low cannabinoid tolerance.  You can always take a higher dose the next time, as you build your tolerance gradually over a period of time.

Step #5: Be Responsible 

If you’re going to be taking a THCA product like vapes, flower, or dabs, then be responsible.  Delta 9 THC can cause impairment, and this can make activities like driving dangerous.  Of course, you can also get into a lot of trouble with the law for driving while intoxicated, even if what you consumed was legal – take alcohol, for example. 

Even in terms of your own safety, the potential for mild impairment caused by delta 9 can mean feeling lightheaded, unsteady, or unable to maintain the best motor skills, so don’t do anything dangerous while under its influence, such as chopping something with a sharp knife, operating heavy machinery, etc.

Is it Okay to Experiment with Your THCA Routine?

Discovering a new cannabinoid that totally satisfies your needs is very exciting.  But, just because you found a THCA hemp product you like doesn’t mean you need to stop there.  The world of hemp is all about exploring what’s out there, and even opening yourself up to new experiences.  

• Try pairing THCA with another hemp-based product, in order to see how the synergistic relationship between these cannabinoids, makes your experience even more enjoyable.  
• Consider trying a different delivery method or product type.
• Test different in order to experiment with all kinds of unique ways to feel the effects of THCA in action.

Overall,  Tetrahydrocannabinolic acid is perhaps the most versatile cannabinoid out there, in that depending on the product you go with, you can either enjoy a variety of potential therapeutic properties, or a classic delta 9 THC high complete with euphoria and full-body relaxation.  Again, we really urge you to decide ahead of time, what it is that you want out THCA, and then processed forward to choose your product type, dosage, etc. accordingly.
