Trailblazers: Delta 8 THC Products

Cannabis has existed for thousands of years and in many different forms. The first wild cannabis plants were low in THC and did not cause much of a buzz. As the years went by, farmers began to breed higher THC cannabis plants. In the modern day, millions of people indulge in the psychoactive high of the cannabis plant daily. For a plant with so much history, you might believe that we learned everything we could know about cannabis a long time ago. However, we are just now scratching the surface of the secrets of cannabis. One of the best examples of a thousand-year-old plant bearing new fruit is Delta 8 THC products.

Many know that the main component of cannabis is THC. THC is a cannabinoid, a naturally occurring chemical in the cannabis plant. THC is the cannabinoid responsible for the famous marijuana high. Still, it is not the only cannabinoid in marijuana and cannabis. Cannabis contains hundreds of different cannabinoids, and one of these hundreds of cannabinoids is Delta 8 THC. Delta 8 THC has a nearly identical chemical structure to THC but has different effects. Also, the legal regulations surrounding Delta 8 THC are much different than marijuana, meaning it is legal across most of the United States.Delta 8 THC products

You might have many questions about Delta 8 THC. Where did it come from? Why is it legal in the United States? Does it feel like smoking marijuana? Where can I buy Delta 8 THC? We have the answers to all of these questions and more. So sit back, relax, and prepare to be introduced to the cannabinoid rocking the cannabis world, Delta 8 THC.

A Quick History

If you have ever smoked marijuana or taken a marijuana gummy, you have tried Delta 8 THC. You may be surprised to hear this, since most people believe THC is the only important chemical in marijuana. However, there are traces of Delta 8 THC in every cannabis product. Therefore, Delta 8 THC is as old as cannabis itself. So why is Delta 8 THC suddenly so popular? The answer lies in the isolation and extraction of Delta 8 THC.

In 1941, the scientist Roger Adams discovered Delta 8 THC. The following year they tested the effects of Delta 8 THC on humans. A few years later, they completely isolated Delta 8 THC.

Overall, Delta 8 THC has been around for a while. So, why have Delta 8 THC products suddenly become so popular? A few years ago, you likely never heard of Delta 8 THC, but now you can see them lining the checkout line at gas stations. The sudden popularity of Delta 8 THC products is due to the United States’ legal regulations.

The Legal Regulations of Delta 8 THC

One of the main questions people have about Delta 8 THC products is, “how is this stuff legal?” The legality of Delta 8 THC lies in how the United States government distinguishes between hemp and cannabis.

You may have heard the terms “hemp” and “cannabis” used interchangeably, but this is somewhat misleading. “Hemp” and “cannabis” are not different plants; they both come from the Cannabis Sativa plant. The difference between “hemp” and “cannabis” is the amount of THC in the plant. In 2018, the Farm Bill legalized hemp in the United States. The bill also required that hemp have less than 0.3% THC by volume. Therefore, cannabis and cannabis products with less than 0.3% THC by volume became federally legal.

We know that THC is not the only cannabinoid in cannabis/hemp, and there is no legal regulation on the amount of Delta 8 THC in hemp. Therefore, farmers and manufacturers can now legally grow, isolate, and produce Delta 8 THC. The recent legalization of Delta 8 THC products caused the explosion of commercially available Delta 8 THC products. However, there are still some loopholes.

States only control commerce inside their borders. Therefore, states can outlaw the sale and consumption of hemp products at their behest. However, states cannot control commerce between states (aka interstate commerce). So, if you live in a state where hemp products are illegal, you can order them online from another state and have them delivered legally to your home. At Farma Barn, we legally ship Delta 8 THC products anywhere in the United States.

The Delta 8 THC High

Although the chemical structure of Delta 8 THC is very similar to THC, they have different psychoactive effects. Delta 8 THC is not a replacement for a marijuana high. Rather, it is an alternative to marijuana.

The Delta 8 THC high is much weaker than the high from THC. The general consensus is that Delta 8 is about five times weaker than THC. For “light-weights,” Delta 8 THC is a great way to enjoy a high without being too high. However, those with higher tolerances may want a few extra puffs or gummies to get a similar feeling to marijuana.

Also, the Delta 8 high is slightly different from the marijuana high. For those that know the marijuana high, you likely enjoy the euphoria, the giggles, and the munchies. These are still present in the Delta 8 high, but the high has some differences. Many people report that Delta 8 THC products energize them, whereas marijuana chills them out. For those who want to stay active or party on a high, Delta 8 THC is the ideal choice.
