What is THCA?THCA, or Tetrahydrocannabinolic Acid, is a naturally occurring compound found in the cannabis plant. It is the precursor to delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), which is the psychoactive component responsible for the "high" associated with cannabis use. THCA itself is non-intoxicating and has a different set of potential therapeutic properties.
-
Why use THCA?THCA is a naturally occurring cannabinoid that, when exposed to specific conditions like heat (as in smoking), light, or the passage of time, undergoes decarboxylation, transforming into delta-9 THC, known for its intoxicating properties. While both Delta-8 and Delta-9 THC can induce a euphoric sensation, some individuals find Delta-8 to be less intense and less intoxicating. The effects of THCA's decarboxylation have been likened to the traditional high associated with smoking marijuana in states where recreational marijuana is legal.
-
Will smoking THCA flower make you high?Although THCA is a natural & federally legal compound, it can get you high. Under the federal farm bill, all hemp products must contain 0.3% or less Delta-9 THC of dry weight.
-
How can this be legal?Great question! Yes. You can rest assured that all our products are crafted from federally legal hemp. In accordance with the guidelines set by the 2018 Farm Bill, the production of hemp-derived THCA in any concentration is perfectly legal, as long as the Delta-9 THC content remains below the 0.3% threshold by dry weight. This legal framework ensures that you can enjoy our high-quality products with confidence, knowing they meet all federal regulations and standards.
-
Where are your hemp derivative products grown?We cultivate our hemp naturally, without the use of GMOs or pesticides, in the states of Tennessee and Oregon. Every Twin Buds product undergoes third-party lab testing and complies with U.S. legal standards. Our unwavering mission is to consistently offer the highest quality organic hemp products within the entire industry.

How should I store my THCA so that it does not become a "hot load"?At Twin Buds, we prioritize rigorous testing to ensure the complete legal compliance of our hemp flower. In simpler terms, we exclusively deal in hemp products that adhere to the law. It's vital to grasp that THCA hemp flower can transition into illegal marijuana if the THCA within it decarboxylates, causing the delta-9 THC concentration to exceed the 0.3% limit. This conversion can occur naturally over time and is accelerated when exposed to heat and light. We strongly advise storing THCA hemp flower in a cool, dark, and dry environment to minimize unintentional conversion of THCA to delta-9 THC through the decarboxylation process. Your adherence to these storage recommendations is key to maintaining legal compliance.

What is a COA?A Certificate of Analysis (COA) is a crucial tool for confirming the legality and quality of hemp products. Here's how you can determine the legality of hemp through the review of a COA: Delta-9 THC Content: The COA provides detailed information about the concentration of delta-9 THC in the hemp product. Hemp is legal in the United States if it contains no more than 0.3% delta-9 THC by dry weight. Ensure that the COA confirms that the THC content complies with this legal limit. Cannabinoid Profile: The COA also outlines the concentrations of other cannabinoids present in the product, such as CBD and CBG. This information is essential to verify that the product's cannabinoid content aligns with its intended use and legal status. Contaminant Testing: The COA should include results for contaminants like heavy metals, pesticides, and solvents. Legally compliant hemp products should not exceed the permissible limits for these impurities, as established by federal and state regulations. Source and Batch Information: The COA typically includes details about the product's origin, extraction method, and batch or lot number. By reviewing this information, you can confirm the product's source, its adherence to legal guidelines, and trace it back to its specific production cycle. By carefully examining the COA and ensuring it aligns with legal standards, you can confidently verify the legality of a hemp product and make informed choices when purchasing or using such products.
-
Do all your products come with lab testing?Absolutely! You can access the Certificates of Analysis (COAs) for all our products by visiting our COA page, conveniently located under the "Learn More" home tab. This provides transparent and easily accessible information about the quality and compliance of our offerings.
-
Will I pass a drug test?Our products may result in a positive THC test. If you may be subject to a marijuana drug test...think twice!
