Decarboxylation is a crucial process for cannabis enthusiasts, especially those looking to maximize the effects and versatility of THCA-rich cannabis. But what is decarboxylation, and how do you do it effectively? Let’s break it down.
Vaping HHC Hydroxyhexahydrocannabinol or HHC, like CBD and THC, is a cannabinoid found in the hemp plant, though in very small quantities. It is most often produced synthetically from CBD, using a process called hydrogenation, which involves adding hydrogen to THC. Like THC and unlike CBD, HHC has psychoactive properties. However, being chemically distinct from THC, HHC has not been federally banned. As with other forms of vaping, users often experience faster and more intense effects when they vape HHC.
You keep hearing about HHC and other cannabinoids, read here to understand the differences between these and to find out which is best for you. HHC contains less than 0.3% THC making it compliant with the 2018 US Farm Bill and is federally legal, unlike its counterpart, Delta 9 THC.
If you know anything at all about cannabis and hemp, it’s probably that the best-known cannabinoids derived from these plants are THC and CBD. THC, of course, is best known for imparting an intoxicating high—but it has a surprisingly wide range of medicinal effects too, like easing pain and nausea among many others.
THC and HHC have nearly identical molecular structures, except the carbon double bonds in THC are replaced with hydrogen in HHC. This slight difference in chemical structure affects how the molecule interacts with your body's endocannabinoid system. HHC is psychoactive and can produce effects similar to THC, though the intensity and duration of the effects may be milder.
If you’ve ever consumed THC, the experience should feel pretty similar. Some people report that the high from HHC is more of a relaxed, mellow, cerebral experience than THC—depending on how much they consume. Others have reported a milder and mood-boosting high that’s overall more energetic feeling as opposed to a sedative and couch-locked.
Once harvested, the raw cannabis flowers are often coated or "dusted" with additional THCA crystals, augmenting the potency for those seeking a powerful therapeutic punch or an exceptionally smooth smoke that emphasizes flavor and aroma—sans the psychoactive effects.
Speaking further on the subject, Dope As Yola said, "We’re going to create some crazy s*. THCa is like diamonds in the rough. I can’t wait to see what we come up with. The possibilities are endless.” So, THC fans, brace yourself for what is to come.
THCA needs to undergo decarboxylation, a process that involves heating the plant material to convert THCA to THC, to unlock its full potential. This means that THCA-rich products like raw cannabis, tinctures, or edibles need to be decarboxylated before consumption to feel the psychoactive effects of THC.
