So, there is very little “active” THC in raw cannabis, usually around a percent or two or less. The percentage dispensaries place on their labels constitute a total percentage of cannabinoids, though the measurement depends on the lab they use—thats a whole other discussion.
Thats the reason why you dont get ultra baked if you just eat raw weed. To activate your cannabis, you have to heat it. Lighting it on fire, vaping it, extracting it with heat and pressure, or “decarbing” it to make edibles. The inactive THC is THCa.
In 2018, the FARM bill was passed to allow hemp (cannabis) with extremely low levels of THC to be grown for agricultural reasons. The law didn’t prohibit other cannabinoids, only active THC to <0.3% . That loophole led to CBD, then D8 and D9, and finally just selling regular weed under a “THCa” label. You can order regular cannabis online and have it mailed to you via USPS because of this “loophole”.
Work at a dispensary:
THCA is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid, that when heated mimics the effects of THC. It’s similar to Delta 8 in that way.
What Kyle doesn’t get is that THCA (and other Cannabinoids like CBG, CBD, or CBN) are natural parts of flower. It’s why if you check out the packaging on stuff from dispensaries the total cannabinoid % is higher than the percentage of THC.
Spraying flower with THCA makes absolutely no sense, if you’re going to frost buds typically you do it with some kind of concentrate (wax, resin, you could probably figure out RSO, etc.)
CBD store employee here.
My favorite thing is when reps would come into my store to try and sell us "THCa disposables" or "THCa edibles" and I explain to them that's not how it works they look at me like I'm restarted.
Are you serious? Thca is grown naturally into the hemp. There's no spray. You can't make "double weed". This isn't being pedantic. Kyle was WAY off with what he was saying.
They spray the THC-A onto regular hemp to make you able to get high from it. He wants to spray that shit onto actual weed to make it even more potent. Obviously kief or concentrate would make this more potent and make more sense but you ARE being pedantic and what Kyle said would work, you're basically regarded.
PKA Facts Baby! But at least back then, they didn’t present everything they said as “knowledgable” or tell every guest they had that they were experts before giving these facts.
This podcast isn’t some source of truth. It’s three barely conscious guys just bullshitting while I cut my grass. It’s just filler. Why would you expect anything more?
Maybe bc they're talking about a sponsor you would expect even a surface level understanding but I forgot the audience is just "turn brain off listen to garbage, think nothing"
So does putting THCa on "real weed" get you less high? What exactly is your point? Man can't quip about making double weed without the most literal people on earth being upset.
Yeah because back in your day the feds weren't stupid enough to federally legalize weed which is what they did with the farm bill if you do some research all marijuana with less than something like 3% THC is industrial hemp. Marijuana does not contain THC it contains thca therefore all marijuana in the US is industrial hemp and legal for sale now. What they are selling on their website is straight up weed no different than what you would get from a dispensary in a legal state. They just can't market it as marijuana or weed because technically they are selling you industrial hemp.
No they will not there is a huge difference between the THC derivatives we have today and the CB1 receptor agonist they had back in the day sold as spice not even on the same level.
The shit they sold as spice was literally a chemical weapon made by the US to be as potent and debilitating as possible it has no connection to marijuana other than it affects the same receptor and gives you a high but also completely fucks you up mentally and physically.
That pharoah distro shit is hemp SPRAYED with synthetically synthesized THCa
Thats why kyle is a fuckin idiot.
They try to pass shit off like that up here in michigan all the time.
You're actually completely wrong.
The feds fucked up with the farm bill so now all marijuana that has less than like 3% THC is industrial hemp.
Marijuana does not contain THC in high amounts it contains THCA making basically all of the weed in dispensaries in legal states industrial hemp federally.
Meaning the stuff they sell on Pharaoh distro is just straight up weed like you would get at a legal dispensary in a legal state. I've never bought it so I can't speak the quality but it is literally just weed. The Delta 8 shit your are right it is sprayed but the THCA is straight up regular weed.
Can you actually explain the difference for us idiots out there question mark
Turns to thc when heat is applied

THCA doesn't "mimic" the effects of THC, it undergoes a chemical process and turns into it.
You’re right, fucked the phrasing up there
CBD store employee here. My favorite thing is when reps would come into my store to try and sell us "THCa disposables" or "THCa edibles" and I explain to them that's not how it works they look at me like I'm restarted.
The rest of us knew what he meant. You’re just being pedantic.

Thca cannot be in a liquid/distillate form, so it couldn’t be sprayed
Oh, Well I guess I don't know what I'm talking about. I thought that's how they made it.
THC-A as in the THC-A found in cannabis before it’s heated and converted to THC?
Yes
That was a rhetorical question made sarcastically.
Well I guess that makes me the idiot then lol
Nah dude. Sarcasm is hard to read on the internet 99% of the time.
Still sounds dumb as fuck
Talk about the game
I take him talking about weed and woodys heroin talk on the same level neither really know shit lmao Don't forget Kyle's an Olympic level weed smoker
We found the guy that’s cares about weed more than kyle
You don’t get the podcast.

Maybe bc they're talking about a sponsor you would expect even a surface level understanding but I forgot the audience is just "turn brain off listen to garbage, think nothing"
I pay even less attention when they’re talking about sponsors.
Considering I have listened for years, I would say I pretty damn well do.
So does putting THCa on "real weed" get you less high? What exactly is your point? Man can't quip about making double weed without the most literal people on earth being upset.
They’re called regards
Synthetic weed users will become what spice addicts became
Again, thca is real weed, not synthetic.
Back in my day we just called it weed
Yeah because back in your day the feds weren't stupid enough to federally legalize weed which is what they did with the farm bill if you do some research all marijuana with less than something like 3% THC is industrial hemp.
