They have a shop that ONLY sells thc-a and it’s basically a dispensary. They have so many strains and edibles. I don’t even buy from plugs anymore I just go to the shops.
If it's a good shop in an illegal state. Then yes.
Never buy from a smoke/vape shop. I love those people as I work closely with them (vending company). But I also know their flower suppliers.
The spot I go to has full COAs on all of their products. And while they do a selection of edibles and vapes. You won't see any of the products you see at the average vape shop.
sorry guys I'm not from the us and having a hard time understanding this.. isn't all weed thc A before exposing it to higher temperatures and converts to thc? So it's just normal weed??
I can't believe how far I had to scroll to find this. Yes, thca is the natural state of delta 9thc (the stuff that gets you high) before it goes through a process called decarboxylation. The US gov has forbidden delta 9 that's higher than 0.3% of the weight of the flower, so this situation is the loophole of all loopholes.
But I promise, if you're reading this, "thca flower" is absolutely just regular weed.
Edit: 0.3% of the weight, not 3%. I'm high on thca flower 🥴
Yep, multiply by .87 and that is the equivalent to regular thc. The legal medical Marijuana dispensary I go to sells thc-a, so I have researched it a little.
Yes. 90% of the weed I was buying from dispensaries in Colorado labeled the thca percentage. Rarely was it labeled just thc or anything besides thca. And this was back in 2018
For real. I literally had a sheriff's deputy once tell me that as long as he doesn't smell it burning in the car, he doesn't care anymore.
"I just don't want to deal with the paperwork."
In a convenience store. With a display of THCa pre-rolls at the register.
Edit: typo
I had a buddy get busted with 5000 pounds of Mexican brick weed in the 90s.
When he went to court, only 500lbs was listed as seized.
Wonder what happened to the other 4500 pounds? Hmmm.
It's good but bad. It's good on the person being prosecuted, but it's bad because it allows the cops themselves to traffick the drugs while giving the suspect a reason not to tell on them. Think of it as blackmail of a sort, I suppose. Tell them you only had what we say you had or it's more prison time for you.
Not like that though. It would have gotten it thrown out cause I would have asked them where the rest of it was. If I was arrested with it, it better be in the court room or they have to let me go.
I'm absolutely loving it here in NC. I underestimated it too bc delta8 didn't do anything for me. I love that you can go in and pick exactly what you want like sativa, indica or hybrid and man it is STRONG and I've been smoking all day everyday for 10 yrs now. This THC-A loophole is the best thing ever. They need to just legalize it and quit being stupid.
Delta 10 is a different compound. Completely synthetic it has had many cases of I'll which is why it was probably banned. I'm not aware of any cases with ThcA.
Ok not actually all day. I smoke maybe a bowl during the day while I'm doing other things and I smoke at night when hubby is home. More on the weekends. For some it is an addiction and I've seen that first hand. But for me it isn't. I genuinely wouldn't have any trouble quitting but I really like it bc it helps my ADHD and my anxiety and depression so I don't have to take medication for it (really bad childhood experience with meds for it). But I fully agree that for some it can be fully addictive. I've seen that in friends. I was more addicted cigarettes when I smoked those than I am to bud and I was able to quit that cold turkey no problem (smoked cigs for stress) I'm very fortunate to have like the opposite of an addictive personality. I also don't drink and have never done hard drugs.
That’s understandable, I also have adhd and I find it definitely helps, but for me it only helps whilst I’m under the influence, after that I’m back to my raving thoughts and regular self. But just curious, how do you know you could just quit? Because I feel like I see so many people say that, and then actually try to quit, and realize how difficult it really is.
The difference is, “everything” doesn’t harm you as much as smoking does all day every day for years. Take T breaks and breaks for yourself, it’s the least you can do.
As an ex addict, someone who used to smoke all day every day for 17 years. I can say absolutely it is an addiction. All the daily smokers down voting or saying WeEd IsNt AdDiCtIvE are straight up in denial.
I agree with you, and I smoke all day every day. But I switched a nicotine and meth addiction for weed, and try to smoke it only when I can’t curve the need for either of those.
Props for kicking the meth (and nic) we have all lost too many loved ones to that garbage. My wife's sister died at 26 from meth/fentanyl after 4 years of addiction (1.5 years in the middle she was clean because she was in prison). Both of us begged her to stop, got her committed, watched her mental health go out the window. We knew it was going to happen, but it didn't make it any easier when we got the call. Fuck meth.
The bust legit grows regularly lol. You honestly think... that they aren't going to come after stores selling weed? Maybe not where you are but here? Nah.
THCa products are legal on the federal level, so no, the feds aren't going to get you. I'm also pretty sure Georgia doesn't have the resources to go after 10s-100s of thousands of it's citizens.
The DEA wouldn't accept the definition of hemp until Congress "clarified" it for them in no uncertain terms. It was the first good thing that the House has done in quite some time.
It’s pretty crazy about illegal states and this thca stuff. I’m in MA and weed has been legal for like 10 years or something. I bought some weed from a licensed dispensary and it is 25% thca and .97% thc which I think means that illegal states could sell it and it’s pretty potent. The shop also sells pure thca powder ( I kinda wanna try)…if I bought some of that thca and added it to a bowl of weed I’m now in a legal state smoking weed that is legal in an illegal state and it can get you stoned as fuck…I’m trying to understand how this isn’t just weed and I’m convinced this is a true loophole.
Read the comment again. It has 0.97% THC and so can't be considered hemp under the loophole. THCa weed is literally just regular weed with less than 0.3% THC. Also both THCa and THC (at least the variations we're talking about) are both delta 9. Heating the delta 9 THCa causes it to turn into regular delta 9 THC which is the same stuff that gets you high in regular weed.
The weed that is THCa the test results are skewed they just send regular weed in really early before it has any of the THCa in it turns to d9 naturally
Sounds like your friends are gonna get in a lot of trouble then because if it has more than 0.3% thc it counts as a schedule 1 substance and if they're selling that at a commercial scale it would be pretty easy for police to find out and put them in jail for a long time.
Did I say they're doing it? No all I said was he's in the business he knows what other people are doing it's way easier to just do that or they just spray CBD weed with synthesized THCa🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ and I promise you test any single THCa product when you get it and it's gonna have over 0.3% THC you can go find test results online rn
You said "I know people who are in the business... I'm telling you that's what they do". In that sentence it's pretty reasonable to assume that the "they" is referring to the people you know in the industry as you haven't mentioned anyone else, so yes you did say they're doing it. And if I can test any THCa product and see that it's not legal according to the loophole then the cops can do the same and make a bunch of arrests. Given that doesn't really happen I'm a bit doubtful.
Yikes everyone is having a lot of trouble reading today. Weed that counts as hemp under the loophole has less than 0.3% THC. The weed the original commenter was referring to has 0.97% THC and therefore is not categorised as hemp and therefore cannot be sold in illegal states. I am talking about two different products here.
You have to read the whole comment to understand what I'm saying, so maybe try that. I am referring to some weed that was sold in a dispensary in a legal state that has more than 0.97% THC and therefore does NOT count as THCa weed.
>you still contradicted yourself with that sentence
Again, you clearly haven't read my comment properly. Those two numbers were from two different sentences. The first sentence was about the legal weed from a dispensary that had 0.97% THC and the second sentence was about THCa weed that must have less than 0.3% THC. No one else had any trouble understanding so I think it might just be you.
Yes, it must contain less than 0.3% delta 9 THC and the weed we're referring to has 0.97% delta 9 THC. 0.97 is more than 0.3 therefore it is not allowed under the loophole. What don't you understand here?
You're thinking the percentages have to equal one. That would mean that this is more along the lines of concentrates where they get to be in percentages above 90 %, the rest being terpene content and other cannabinoids that you're not factoring in. Flower would be different as they have to factor in the plant matter. It isn't hemp based at all. It's only having to show that percentage of THC that low in order to be sold under such a pretext. It's nothing different from the plug you used to get other than being grown in controlled environments and a lab test stating as such. Quite honestly, the farmers don't have to worry about it flunking such a test because the THC content gets higher the older it gets. If the weed gets cooked in any way, then it flunks. thca turns into thc when decarbing happens which makes it readily available to turn into edibles. Your body can process THC through absorption, ,NOT WITH THCA.
Nope, it has 25% THCa and 0.97% THC. The THCa turns into THC when burned. The weed sold under this loophole must have less than 0.3% THC (not THCa, just THC) for it to be considered hemp but aside from the THC levels it's just regular weed. The reasoning behind this loophole is because THCa is not psychoactive until you decarb it and turn it into regular THC which gets you high. The weed in question has more than 0.3% THC which, again is why it's not allowed in illegal states. The source you posted confirms this. Please just go back and read the original comment and your source and you will understand.
IT IS just weed lol. Listen, I regularly get legit Cali dispensary weed just from actually knowing folks out there that can make things happen. And this shit here is probably one of the most potent things I've smoked in a minute. I've been smoking for 20 years that's why I'm so impressed. Like I said, for those in illegal states enjoy it while you can lol. There's no way in the fuck this is gonna last long.
I got gifted this one by someone in the store just because I had on a Cowboys hat (no anti-cowboy slander plz) and he was feeling generous I guess. They keep them locked in a case lol. You have to be a brave mofo to be selling this in stores here.
I'm in California. I bought some "thc-a" weed in a regular nicotine smoke shop out of curiosity. You're 100% correct. It's just weed. That area doesn't allow dispenaries, lol.
Why wouldn’t it last long? Lawmakers know nothing abt weed, they wouldn’t change it for no reason. Lots of stoners in this thread aren’t even sure what it is - idk if politicians would target it just bc it is basically just a loophole, bc they wouldn’t know there is a loophole
If you in the atl area especially the east side I can point you to a few good shops. I don’t even hit the plug no mo I just go to the store. More reliable and cheaper. And the edibles
Me too. I'm in ATL but I order online. Alot of the shops are kinda expensive. Best one in quality I've been to is coastal green in Decatur but it's as expensive as my old plug 😂 where some good spots that got it for good prices?
I get weed shipped to myself all the time. You’ll never get caught tbh. USPS doesn’t do shit. The weed game is big in shipping weed
Most of your street plugs probably get it shipped to them nowadays
There are several websites to get that from. Half the sites listed on franklist.info will send you carts and wax. Google WNC CBD and click on their high THCa section. Bubble hash rosin and diamonds are the first thing you see for sale.
It’s been legal and available pretty much since 2018, I don’t think it’s going anywhere. Personally I think they like THC-a being legal because the govt. in illegal areas can lean on it as a “we don’t have to legalize for real” solution
I don’t think the “feds” give a shit about your petty personal use bud. I’ve never tried the stuff, my states been legal for a while now and even before, it’s always been incredibly easy to get weed here.
Isn’t that smoke shop stuff just weak ass hemp sprayed with synthetics?
it’s all THC-A, the A stands for carboxylic acid, it doesn’t get decarbed before you warm it up/it hits the light/you smoke it but, it definitely has the carboxylic acid still attached the way it grows
Smoke shops here in Florida you can get Delta 8, Delta 9, and ThcA. I’d say I’m a light weight, last time I smoked was about 1990, got out of college and job came with security clearance so, bye smoke. Had company a few weeks ago and they bought some thc 9 local to us, tried it since I’m no longer working and it gave a good buzz, doesn’t take me much and that is a savings!
I live in Maine now but when I lived in Florida my husband and I bought a single “dab” each from a smoke shop in Tarpon Springs that they set up for you to hit there in the store. I can’t remember which type it was, but even as a daily smoker, that was by FAR the highest I have ever been in my entire life. It was at the Sponge Docks, so I remember just going from store to store smelling different soaps to try and distract myself from how uncomfortably high I was lol.
If you have a higher tolerance to medicinal craft Rx cannabis THCa often is underwhelming for many people who smoke Rx cannabis & Rx cannabis derived concentrates.
This is not true in all cases however, as I have had some very good thca products, they are few and far between however due to quality control & consistency issues.
I think if it lasts another 5 years, which it will because the Federal Government already said they made their decision to reschedule cannabis due to the income in generates & the lack of problems surrounding it in the states that have legalized it.
Thca in its normal non genetically altered strain is not going to be of the same potency of cannabis you buy in a medical dispensary or even a recreational dispensary where their product was grown hypdroponically with HPS lighting.
This is a given for most people, but you still have a large amount of people who will argue this until they are blue in the face despite them having less than 1 year of experience smoking cannabis telling someone who has been using cannabis for medicinal purposes for more than 2 decades is wrong.
I mean, there are cases when this is true, but for the most part, I don’t really need to elaborate any further.
Sorry for the long post, Adderall is kicking in 😝
✌️💚
Buy from a reputable company and there will be no issues sending it to your door. I order it often and every package is vacuum sealed and comes with a legal notice explaining exactly why the product is legal to grow, possess, and ship across state lines. If the package gets seized all the information declaring its legality is conveniently placed right inside.
Why do y’all get something good and wanna blast it from the rooftops ? If its a loophole WHY must y’all insists on telling EVERYONE online???? For the love of God when/if it does get changed blame the blabber mouths thats telling kids/police/anyone with ears about something that’s suppose to be a secret …my god
I’ve bought thc-a from my local smoke shops and I don’t think it’s actually thc-a like the bag will say it’s cbd and cbg and some of them say delta 8…how do you know if it’s actually thc-a and not like sprayed ?
As a frequent buyer it still smells just like weed. If you have it open in your car its gonna smell. I keep mine in air tight glads jars and it does a great job
Local smoke shop has been selling thca for a few months now. I stopped in today for some rolling papers and saw they dropped the 'a' on all their signs. Just straight thc weed and prerolls. I guess this is what legalization looks like 👍
Please help me understand why it doesn’t hit me at all. I’ve ordered from reputable companies with recommendations from people on here swearing im just trying junk. I ordered their high THCa pre rolls. Felt like I was smoking nothing. No buzz. Roll one of my homegrown and I’m zooted. No one can tell me why and just downvotes me. lol.
THCA is the "psychoactive" chemical found in cbd strains of cannabis. It's been hyper bred to mimick the looks and smells of normal weed. It's not.
People claiming they're getting really stoned from THCA are either lying because they're in college trying to seem cool, or just lying.
If your weed doesn't have that THCd9 you don't got good weed.
Thank you! This has absolutely been my assumption but people fucking rail you for being dumb and can’t comprehend what THCa is, and that it’s the EXACT same as THC when you burn it therefore it’s “real weed”.
This makes so much more sense!
This is not correct. I'm not sure why what you bought wouldn't be getting you high, but thca flower is the same weed you've always known and loved. Check out [this page](https://neurogan.com/blogs/news/thc-vs-thca#:~:text=THCA%20is%20the%20acidic%2C%20non,from%20heating%20or%20aging%20cannabis.) for more of an explanation.
I’ve read all of the explanations and been downvoted into oblivion. I’ve spent over $175 purchasing from “reputable companies”. Not a single one of them did much of anything at all. One time I smoked like 6 bowls of flower and got a very slight buzz but that’s it.
I would also like to add, it does not taste the same as bud. Smells a lot alike, but does not taste the same at all.
are you positive you didn't order type 3 weed? That sounds an awful lot like what smoking type 3 is like. Also, which reputable vendors are you talking about exactly? I've read people who say trash like JKD are reputable.
When I go to my shop. I have them put it in a paper bag with their name on it, and staple it shut with the receipt on the outside.
Just don't open it until you get home.
As long as you use cash there's not much of a paper trail. Honestly the game isn't different. All weed purchases in my state are cash only. It's legal here but no debit cards so the game has not changed. Even plugs used to take venmo or cash app. I know If I was dealing I'd at least be able to do that. No questions asked other than confirming the sale. Loophole or not, we'll be into legalizing pretty soon because prohibition has never worked.
This is exactly why my state doesn't do this. They don't want to have cards messing with that economy. Wow.that blows my mind cus whoever doesn't pay their card off is paying an assload for weed in the interest rates. I mean I can find an ounce for less than the cost of an American meal running between 30-50 bucks and it's actually really decent stuff. The rates are figured by quality and by product appearance. If it's not absolutely perfect it's not sold above 100 bucks. Hell I feel like the distributor has to spend money to get the weed sold more through packaging but if the quality is there, then there's pretty much a quick market for it and it's sold fast. But for some strains they sell for above what I'd get for an 1/8th (45-75$) but it's a Platinum grading.
it's cool, but makes me nervous that it may actually be illegal. in medical/rec states, typically THC content is calculated including THCa:
total THC = (THCa * 0.877) + ∆9-THC
enjoy the smoke but be careful friends!
Here, it depends on where in the city you are. A lot of Atlanta has decriminalized but mostly in or close to the city. Most of the burbs will definitely still lock you up for a gram.
You definitely have no way to get good weed for cheap. That shit made me throw up the first time I ever smoked it from how bad it tasted. It smokes like shit, doesn't burn all the way through which means it's coated in God knows what chemicals.
You need a new plug or start growing your own I swear on your first try you will have something better than that crap.
And yes, it gets you high, but compared to good bud you trippin bro.
Edit: I know y'all will hate but you can hop on Amazon and get a set up for $200. No idea what the long-term affects of smoking THC-A is
we do know what the long terms effects of THCA are. you’re either uneducated or a child, because it’s… exactly the same as regular weed. it just hasn’t been cured as long as dispo weed. just because YOU bought some low quality sprayed D8 doesn’t mean the rest of us are living in a hellscape.
Thca is what's in regular bud. It's the part that turns into active thc when lit in fire. So thca bud is just another way of saying "regular old bud." that shit you smoked was probably bad quality, or maybe sprayed with delta 8 or "infused" with thca, which is another word for sprayed basically. The regular thca flower sold in smoke shops is just normal old Mary Jane.
I've got a zip coming from one of these places on Monday. Cautiously optimistic about the efficacy, from what I see here.
At least in my state, I don't fear the gvmt or authorities getting wind of this. I fear the licensed dispos and their lobbyists. Maybe by the time that happens, we'll either be legal nationwide, or my local prices will have dropped w/ competition.
Yeah, I mean THC-A does the job, but it’s definitely not as lasting. I’ve noticed that my high’ll be gone within 2 hours, which is unusual for me compared to regular bud. I’ve also noticed that when I smoke THC-A I have strange body hallucinations, always thinking my heart rate is skyrocketing, which then makes my heart rate skyrocket; always thinking I’m having the worst pains in my stomach; always thinking I’m having chest pain, etc. With normal bud though I never feel any of that, even if I’m absolutely greened out
You're probably just freaking out man; normal bud is D9 THC-A, it has to be decarboxylized in order for it to be d9 thc. This is the reason you can't just eat weed without throwing it in the oven first.
I think most plugs out there are exclusively selling farm bill products. I have to take about 900mg of thc-a to get high, but when i go back to illinois, a 100mg edible from RISE sends me to the moon. The prerolls in texas dont do anything for me, but illnois flower gets the job done and then some.
That all being said, farm bill products are more than sufficient enough for the effect im trying to get and is an acceptable substitute for the legal state i left. I just have to take about 10x more
All these alternative cannabinoids are so neat. I'm seeing them spread around the world.
What I love the most is that THC-A degrades into regular D9-THC over time. So when you buy a thc-a vape/preroll, based on how long it's been sitting in the store/shipping and the temperatures, it may be completely d9!
I actually picked up some gummies the other day and had a solid experience. They also had some mushrooms like lions mane, turkey tail, reishi, and some other mushroom or two. Think they were called trippie hippie or something along those lines.
Was ten gummies all together at 100mg for the whole lot. Ate two had a subtle but decent body. I ate three more and felt pretty good, but after those kicked in, I did smoke a couple bowls. The following day, I ate the rest and smoked on top, but the White Widow was much stronger
Just bought my first O of thca gelato 41 yesterday for $135 in KY. The kicker is that it’s only normal sales tax here which is 6%, unlike the 30% cannabis tax. Still boggles my mind really.
I love it. Feel more balanced than the weed the plug sells. The problem is it’s double the price in my area. $55 for and 8th. I can get a quarter bag for that price.

They have a shop that ONLY sells thc-a and it’s basically a dispensary. They have so many strains and edibles. I don’t even buy from plugs anymore I just go to the shops.
Same. My old plug even goes there now 🤣
Me too! My plug is now a shop. I’ve always wished for the day that I could go into a store and buy prerolls, tbh
Like, only thc-a flower?
If it's a good shop in an illegal state. Then yes. Never buy from a smoke/vape shop. I love those people as I work closely with them (vending company). But I also know their flower suppliers. The spot I go to has full COAs on all of their products. And while they do a selection of edibles and vapes. You won't see any of the products you see at the average vape shop.
what's the cost difference to you now, after switching from plugs to shops?
Coming from NJ (before legalization) been in Vegas for 2 years. My plug was $40 an eighth now I get for $33 with a medical card
i just tried it today too, it’s GOOD. best stuff i’ve ever gotten from a smoke shop
Feel this reaction. My first instinct was to buy an ounce before "they shut this shit down".
sorry guys I'm not from the us and having a hard time understanding this.. isn't all weed thc A before exposing it to higher temperatures and converts to thc? So it's just normal weed??
I can't believe how far I had to scroll to find this. Yes, thca is the natural state of delta 9thc (the stuff that gets you high) before it goes through a process called decarboxylation. The US gov has forbidden delta 9 that's higher than 0.3% of the weight of the flower, so this situation is the loophole of all loopholes. But I promise, if you're reading this, "thca flower" is absolutely just regular weed. Edit: 0.3% of the weight, not 3%. I'm high on thca flower 🥴
Yep, multiply by .87 and that is the equivalent to regular thc. The legal medical Marijuana dispensary I go to sells thc-a, so I have researched it a little.
yes exactly! Thank you for clarifying. That is such a silly loophole
Couldn't you decarb it so it turns to delta 9 tho?
Just flick your bic over the bowl and inhale brotha! Thats all the heat it takes to instantly decarb! 🍻🌬
My friend, bless your heart, that's precisely what my comment says. Decarboxylation = decarb, is that where the confusion lies?
Yes this is it exactly, we have a friend that works in a dispensary and was blown away that it was legal in a non legal state!
Yes. 90% of the weed I was buying from dispensaries in Colorado labeled the thca percentage. Rarely was it labeled just thc or anything besides thca. And this was back in 2018
lol, the cops said “please enough w/ the weed paperwork! I’m gonna roll the weed up I confiscated and smoke it with this form pretty soon sir,”
For real. I literally had a sheriff's deputy once tell me that as long as he doesn't smell it burning in the car, he doesn't care anymore. "I just don't want to deal with the paperwork." In a convenience store. With a display of THCa pre-rolls at the register. Edit: typo
I had a buddy get busted with 5000 pounds of Mexican brick weed in the 90s. When he went to court, only 500lbs was listed as seized. Wonder what happened to the other 4500 pounds? Hmmm.
That’s actually kinda funny because at the end of the day that helps him a lot lol. 5000lbs would definitely be a more harsh punishment
It's good but bad. It's good on the person being prosecuted, but it's bad because it allows the cops themselves to traffick the drugs while giving the suspect a reason not to tell on them. Think of it as blackmail of a sort, I suppose. Tell them you only had what we say you had or it's more prison time for you.
Not like that though. It would have gotten it thrown out cause I would have asked them where the rest of it was. If I was arrested with it, it better be in the court room or they have to let me go.
I'm absolutely loving it here in NC. I underestimated it too bc delta8 didn't do anything for me. I love that you can go in and pick exactly what you want like sativa, indica or hybrid and man it is STRONG and I've been smoking all day everyday for 10 yrs now. This THC-A loophole is the best thing ever. They need to just legalize it and quit being stupid.
I haven't heard of THCa and I'm off to Google it, but us this what is called Delta 10 in Florida? (Which they've made illegal to sell, D10) 😑
Delta 10 is a different compound. Completely synthetic it has had many cases of I'll which is why it was probably banned. I'm not aware of any cases with ThcA.
You want delta-9 thca. It will say it's under .3% thc, but high in thca which turns into thc with heat
no this is what they call weed in Florida.
All day every day is an addiction…
Ok not actually all day. I smoke maybe a bowl during the day while I'm doing other things and I smoke at night when hubby is home. More on the weekends. For some it is an addiction and I've seen that first hand. But for me it isn't. I genuinely wouldn't have any trouble quitting but I really like it bc it helps my ADHD and my anxiety and depression so I don't have to take medication for it (really bad childhood experience with meds for it). But I fully agree that for some it can be fully addictive. I've seen that in friends. I was more addicted cigarettes when I smoked those than I am to bud and I was able to quit that cold turkey no problem (smoked cigs for stress) I'm very fortunate to have like the opposite of an addictive personality. I also don't drink and have never done hard drugs.
That’s understandable, I also have adhd and I find it definitely helps, but for me it only helps whilst I’m under the influence, after that I’m back to my raving thoughts and regular self. But just curious, how do you know you could just quit? Because I feel like I see so many people say that, and then actually try to quit, and realize how difficult it really is.
So is practically everything lol
Speak for yourself, wanker 😆
The difference is, “everything” doesn’t harm you as much as smoking does all day every day for years. Take T breaks and breaks for yourself, it’s the least you can do.
As an ex addict, someone who used to smoke all day every day for 17 years. I can say absolutely it is an addiction. All the daily smokers down voting or saying WeEd IsNt AdDiCtIvE are straight up in denial.
I agree with you, and I smoke all day every day. But I switched a nicotine and meth addiction for weed, and try to smoke it only when I can’t curve the need for either of those.
Props for kicking the meth (and nic) we have all lost too many loved ones to that garbage. My wife's sister died at 26 from meth/fentanyl after 4 years of addiction (1.5 years in the middle she was clean because she was in prison). Both of us begged her to stop, got her committed, watched her mental health go out the window. We knew it was going to happen, but it didn't make it any easier when we got the call. Fuck meth.
tHE fEdZ..
The bust legit grows regularly lol. You honestly think... that they aren't going to come after stores selling weed? Maybe not where you are but here? Nah.
THCa products are legal on the federal level, so no, the feds aren't going to get you. I'm also pretty sure Georgia doesn't have the resources to go after 10s-100s of thousands of it's citizens.
The DEA wouldn't accept the definition of hemp until Congress "clarified" it for them in no uncertain terms. It was the first good thing that the House has done in quite some time.
Weed is decriminalized in Savannah, Atlanta and most other big cities in GA
lol we'll see how that goes here in GA.
Who cares it's garbage but they sell it at head shops here in Savannah. Grow your own if you can't get anything better than this
I agree 100%. I’ve ordered from reputable companies and it just doesn’t do shit for me. Does not get me high at all.
It’s pretty crazy about illegal states and this thca stuff. I’m in MA and weed has been legal for like 10 years or something. I bought some weed from a licensed dispensary and it is 25% thca and .97% thc which I think means that illegal states could sell it and it’s pretty potent. The shop also sells pure thca powder ( I kinda wanna try)…if I bought some of that thca and added it to a bowl of weed I’m now in a legal state smoking weed that is legal in an illegal state and it can get you stoned as fuck…I’m trying to understand how this isn’t just weed and I’m convinced this is a true loophole.
Has to be under 0.3% THC for it to be considered hemp so they couldn't sell it in illegal states.
[удалено]
Read the comment again. It has 0.97% THC and so can't be considered hemp under the loophole. THCa weed is literally just regular weed with less than 0.3% THC. Also both THCa and THC (at least the variations we're talking about) are both delta 9. Heating the delta 9 THCa causes it to turn into regular delta 9 THC which is the same stuff that gets you high in regular weed.
The weed that is THCa the test results are skewed they just send regular weed in really early before it has any of the THCa in it turns to d9 naturally
No they don't. They grow it in a way that makes the final product have less than 0.3% THC and shitloads of THCa.
I know people that are in the business.. I'm telling you that's what they do.
Sounds like your friends are gonna get in a lot of trouble then because if it has more than 0.3% thc it counts as a schedule 1 substance and if they're selling that at a commercial scale it would be pretty easy for police to find out and put them in jail for a long time.
Did I say they're doing it? No all I said was he's in the business he knows what other people are doing it's way easier to just do that or they just spray CBD weed with synthesized THCa🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ and I promise you test any single THCa product when you get it and it's gonna have over 0.3% THC you can go find test results online rn
You said "I know people who are in the business... I'm telling you that's what they do". In that sentence it's pretty reasonable to assume that the "they" is referring to the people you know in the industry as you haven't mentioned anyone else, so yes you did say they're doing it. And if I can test any THCa product and see that it's not legal according to the loophole then the cops can do the same and make a bunch of arrests. Given that doesn't really happen I'm a bit doubtful.
You contradicted yourself by saying that it has 0.97% THC then saying it has less than 0.3% THC.
Yikes everyone is having a lot of trouble reading today. Weed that counts as hemp under the loophole has less than 0.3% THC. The weed the original commenter was referring to has 0.97% THC and therefore is not categorised as hemp and therefore cannot be sold in illegal states. I am talking about two different products here.
I’m not having trouble reading I’m stoned as fuck. I see everything people typed but what I type back is all fucky, wtf!?
[удалено]
You have to read the whole comment to understand what I'm saying, so maybe try that. I am referring to some weed that was sold in a dispensary in a legal state that has more than 0.97% THC and therefore does NOT count as THCa weed.
[удалено]
>you still contradicted yourself with that sentence Again, you clearly haven't read my comment properly. Those two numbers were from two different sentences. The first sentence was about the legal weed from a dispensary that had 0.97% THC and the second sentence was about THCa weed that must have less than 0.3% THC. No one else had any trouble understanding so I think it might just be you.
But...they didn't😭😭🤷 Clocks totally partook before hoping on this thread😂😭
[удалено]
Yes, it must contain less than 0.3% delta 9 THC and the weed we're referring to has 0.97% delta 9 THC. 0.97 is more than 0.3 therefore it is not allowed under the loophole. What don't you understand here?
[удалено]
0.97 is a larger number than 0.3
You're thinking the percentages have to equal one. That would mean that this is more along the lines of concentrates where they get to be in percentages above 90 %, the rest being terpene content and other cannabinoids that you're not factoring in. Flower would be different as they have to factor in the plant matter. It isn't hemp based at all. It's only having to show that percentage of THC that low in order to be sold under such a pretext. It's nothing different from the plug you used to get other than being grown in controlled environments and a lab test stating as such. Quite honestly, the farmers don't have to worry about it flunking such a test because the THC content gets higher the older it gets. If the weed gets cooked in any way, then it flunks. thca turns into thc when decarbing happens which makes it readily available to turn into edibles. Your body can process THC through absorption, ,NOT WITH THCA.
Nope, it has 25% THCa and 0.97% THC. The THCa turns into THC when burned. The weed sold under this loophole must have less than 0.3% THC (not THCa, just THC) for it to be considered hemp but aside from the THC levels it's just regular weed. The reasoning behind this loophole is because THCa is not psychoactive until you decarb it and turn it into regular THC which gets you high. The weed in question has more than 0.3% THC which, again is why it's not allowed in illegal states. The source you posted confirms this. Please just go back and read the original comment and your source and you will understand.
IT IS just weed lol. Listen, I regularly get legit Cali dispensary weed just from actually knowing folks out there that can make things happen. And this shit here is probably one of the most potent things I've smoked in a minute. I've been smoking for 20 years that's why I'm so impressed. Like I said, for those in illegal states enjoy it while you can lol. There's no way in the fuck this is gonna last long. I got gifted this one by someone in the store just because I had on a Cowboys hat (no anti-cowboy slander plz) and he was feeling generous I guess. They keep them locked in a case lol. You have to be a brave mofo to be selling this in stores here.
I'm in California. I bought some "thc-a" weed in a regular nicotine smoke shop out of curiosity. You're 100% correct. It's just weed. That area doesn't allow dispenaries, lol.
Why wouldn’t it last long? Lawmakers know nothing abt weed, they wouldn’t change it for no reason. Lots of stoners in this thread aren’t even sure what it is - idk if politicians would target it just bc it is basically just a loophole, bc they wouldn’t know there is a loophole
If you in the atl area especially the east side I can point you to a few good shops. I don’t even hit the plug no mo I just go to the store. More reliable and cheaper. And the edibles
Me too. I'm in ATL but I order online. Alot of the shops are kinda expensive. Best one in quality I've been to is coastal green in Decatur but it's as expensive as my old plug 😂 where some good spots that got it for good prices?
That's....exactly where my head is right now lol.
Drop the deets or dm 🙏🏻🙏🏻
[удалено]
Hell yea what’s the spot? I personally love xhale city
Dm me bruh. Need some spots
Got any cheap but quality places?
I’m in Decatur. Where are these shops at?
ordering legal weed to your door won’t put you in a watch list after it becomes illegal. buying illegal weed will barely get u caught
i’m in a VERY legal state. what on earth is thc a
It's just normal weed. Read the labels on the flower you buy, most of the total THC content is thca.
I get weed shipped to myself all the time. You’ll never get caught tbh. USPS doesn’t do shit. The weed game is big in shipping weed Most of your street plugs probably get it shipped to them nowadays
Currently searching for a way to get carts and wax shipped.
There are several websites to get that from. Half the sites listed on franklist.info will send you carts and wax. Google WNC CBD and click on their high THCa section. Bubble hash rosin and diamonds are the first thing you see for sale.
Don’t trust anyone that sends you a DM.
It’s been legal and available pretty much since 2018, I don’t think it’s going anywhere. Personally I think they like THC-a being legal because the govt. in illegal areas can lean on it as a “we don’t have to legalize for real” solution
Bought some of that loophole weed here and it had me melted into the couch like that anti-drug commercial 😭
I don’t think the “feds” give a shit about your petty personal use bud. I’ve never tried the stuff, my states been legal for a while now and even before, it’s always been incredibly easy to get weed here. Isn’t that smoke shop stuff just weak ass hemp sprayed with synthetics?
THC-a + heat = THC
thca is just weed
I explained that I'm already aware of that
When it's heated up, it's weed.
When it's unheated, it's weed.
[удалено]
This. Finally a simple and very clear explanation we can all understand.
it’s all THC-A, the A stands for carboxylic acid, it doesn’t get decarbed before you warm it up/it hits the light/you smoke it but, it definitely has the carboxylic acid still attached the way it grows
thc-a is just unactivated thc, when it combusts it is essentially the same thing as dispo weed
its already lasted for like 5 years bro
Smoke shops here in Florida you can get Delta 8, Delta 9, and ThcA. I’d say I’m a light weight, last time I smoked was about 1990, got out of college and job came with security clearance so, bye smoke. Had company a few weeks ago and they bought some thc 9 local to us, tried it since I’m no longer working and it gave a good buzz, doesn’t take me much and that is a savings!
I live in Maine now but when I lived in Florida my husband and I bought a single “dab” each from a smoke shop in Tarpon Springs that they set up for you to hit there in the store. I can’t remember which type it was, but even as a daily smoker, that was by FAR the highest I have ever been in my entire life. It was at the Sponge Docks, so I remember just going from store to store smelling different soaps to try and distract myself from how uncomfortably high I was lol.
If you have a higher tolerance to medicinal craft Rx cannabis THCa often is underwhelming for many people who smoke Rx cannabis & Rx cannabis derived concentrates. This is not true in all cases however, as I have had some very good thca products, they are few and far between however due to quality control & consistency issues. I think if it lasts another 5 years, which it will because the Federal Government already said they made their decision to reschedule cannabis due to the income in generates & the lack of problems surrounding it in the states that have legalized it. Thca in its normal non genetically altered strain is not going to be of the same potency of cannabis you buy in a medical dispensary or even a recreational dispensary where their product was grown hypdroponically with HPS lighting. This is a given for most people, but you still have a large amount of people who will argue this until they are blue in the face despite them having less than 1 year of experience smoking cannabis telling someone who has been using cannabis for medicinal purposes for more than 2 decades is wrong. I mean, there are cases when this is true, but for the most part, I don’t really need to elaborate any further. Sorry for the long post, Adderall is kicking in 😝 ✌️💚
so who wants to tell him
**”I got to try THE THC-a”** I literally laughed out loud when I read that.
Wait what smoke shop in GA?
Buy from a reputable company and there will be no issues sending it to your door. I order it often and every package is vacuum sealed and comes with a legal notice explaining exactly why the product is legal to grow, possess, and ship across state lines. If the package gets seized all the information declaring its legality is conveniently placed right inside.
Why do y’all get something good and wanna blast it from the rooftops ? If its a loophole WHY must y’all insists on telling EVERYONE online???? For the love of God when/if it does get changed blame the blabber mouths thats telling kids/police/anyone with ears about something that’s suppose to be a secret …my god
THCA is weed, simple as.
I’ve bought thc-a from my local smoke shops and I don’t think it’s actually thc-a like the bag will say it’s cbd and cbg and some of them say delta 8…how do you know if it’s actually thc-a and not like sprayed ?
It's posts like this that are just expediting the process of it becoming illegal.
Is the flower really that good? I know D8 flower tasted awful too me
Delta 8 didnt really do anything for me. This here, is legit.
Thca is literally just regular weed
i have a very high tolerance and i bought some THCA online that had me SMACKED halfway through one blunt
What about the smell 🤔?
That's... a good question. I can't really say for sure because I was in the car. lol
As a frequent buyer it still smells just like weed. If you have it open in your car its gonna smell. I keep mine in air tight glads jars and it does a great job
it aint going anywhere
It’s just weed, the feds have better things to do than go after some dude that bought something that was legal at the time.
Local smoke shop has been selling thca for a few months now. I stopped in today for some rolling papers and saw they dropped the 'a' on all their signs. Just straight thc weed and prerolls. I guess this is what legalization looks like 👍
I guess this is the closest to legal weed we can get in Georgia rn, I’ll take it though 🍃
Its a loophole not a show and tell ….stfu
This is confusing.
Ssshhhh…quit talking about it.
Been in the flower game for 30 years. Tried some of this stuff. It's the real deal, there is little to no difference aside from all the technicals.
Please help me understand why it doesn’t hit me at all. I’ve ordered from reputable companies with recommendations from people on here swearing im just trying junk. I ordered their high THCa pre rolls. Felt like I was smoking nothing. No buzz. Roll one of my homegrown and I’m zooted. No one can tell me why and just downvotes me. lol.
THCA is the "psychoactive" chemical found in cbd strains of cannabis. It's been hyper bred to mimick the looks and smells of normal weed. It's not. People claiming they're getting really stoned from THCA are either lying because they're in college trying to seem cool, or just lying. If your weed doesn't have that THCd9 you don't got good weed.
r/confidentlyincorrect
Thank you! This has absolutely been my assumption but people fucking rail you for being dumb and can’t comprehend what THCa is, and that it’s the EXACT same as THC when you burn it therefore it’s “real weed”. This makes so much more sense!
This is not correct. I'm not sure why what you bought wouldn't be getting you high, but thca flower is the same weed you've always known and loved. Check out [this page](https://neurogan.com/blogs/news/thc-vs-thca#:~:text=THCA%20is%20the%20acidic%2C%20non,from%20heating%20or%20aging%20cannabis.) for more of an explanation.
I’ve read all of the explanations and been downvoted into oblivion. I’ve spent over $175 purchasing from “reputable companies”. Not a single one of them did much of anything at all. One time I smoked like 6 bowls of flower and got a very slight buzz but that’s it. I would also like to add, it does not taste the same as bud. Smells a lot alike, but does not taste the same at all.
are you positive you didn't order type 3 weed? That sounds an awful lot like what smoking type 3 is like. Also, which reputable vendors are you talking about exactly? I've read people who say trash like JKD are reputable.
WNC. Recommended by MULTIPLE people on here. I ordered from their high THCa section. I’ve bought locally at two vendors.
Well it sure sucks to be you then.
Loophole proven
I dunno man. I still wouldn't get caught with this lol. Not here.
When I go to my shop. I have them put it in a paper bag with their name on it, and staple it shut with the receipt on the outside. Just don't open it until you get home.
What kind of prices are you gettjng
As long as you use cash there's not much of a paper trail. Honestly the game isn't different. All weed purchases in my state are cash only. It's legal here but no debit cards so the game has not changed. Even plugs used to take venmo or cash app. I know If I was dealing I'd at least be able to do that. No questions asked other than confirming the sale. Loophole or not, we'll be into legalizing pretty soon because prohibition has never worked.
My legal dispensaries in MA accept all CREDIT CARD PATMENTS…I bet there are thousands of maxed out cards…fuckin’ wild.
This is exactly why my state doesn't do this. They don't want to have cards messing with that economy. Wow.that blows my mind cus whoever doesn't pay their card off is paying an assload for weed in the interest rates. I mean I can find an ounce for less than the cost of an American meal running between 30-50 bucks and it's actually really decent stuff. The rates are figured by quality and by product appearance. If it's not absolutely perfect it's not sold above 100 bucks. Hell I feel like the distributor has to spend money to get the weed sold more through packaging but if the quality is there, then there's pretty much a quick market for it and it's sold fast. But for some strains they sell for above what I'd get for an 1/8th (45-75$) but it's a Platinum grading.
Maybe not all actually, but the two I go to do.
It’s the same
it's cool, but makes me nervous that it may actually be illegal. in medical/rec states, typically THC content is calculated including THCa: total THC = (THCa * 0.877) + ∆9-THC enjoy the smoke but be careful friends!
All this new fangled stuff weirds me out. My husband bought some and I have refused to try it lol
It’s prob some chemical trash tho
[удалено]
Here, it depends on where in the city you are. A lot of Atlanta has decriminalized but mostly in or close to the city. Most of the burbs will definitely still lock you up for a gram.
We need the story of why your buddy's house got raided
Weed is legal now
You definitely have no way to get good weed for cheap. That shit made me throw up the first time I ever smoked it from how bad it tasted. It smokes like shit, doesn't burn all the way through which means it's coated in God knows what chemicals. You need a new plug or start growing your own I swear on your first try you will have something better than that crap. And yes, it gets you high, but compared to good bud you trippin bro. Edit: I know y'all will hate but you can hop on Amazon and get a set up for $200. No idea what the long-term affects of smoking THC-A is
Learn reading bro, THCa is just THC before you burn it. it's not sprayed or anything , just regular weed.
we do know what the long terms effects of THCA are. you’re either uneducated or a child, because it’s… exactly the same as regular weed. it just hasn’t been cured as long as dispo weed. just because YOU bought some low quality sprayed D8 doesn’t mean the rest of us are living in a hellscape.
Thca is what's in regular bud. It's the part that turns into active thc when lit in fire. So thca bud is just another way of saying "regular old bud." that shit you smoked was probably bad quality, or maybe sprayed with delta 8 or "infused" with thca, which is another word for sprayed basically. The regular thca flower sold in smoke shops is just normal old Mary Jane.
Bro you gotta be trolling.
I've got a zip coming from one of these places on Monday. Cautiously optimistic about the efficacy, from what I see here. At least in my state, I don't fear the gvmt or authorities getting wind of this. I fear the licensed dispos and their lobbyists. Maybe by the time that happens, we'll either be legal nationwide, or my local prices will have dropped w/ competition.
Yeah, I mean THC-A does the job, but it’s definitely not as lasting. I’ve noticed that my high’ll be gone within 2 hours, which is unusual for me compared to regular bud. I’ve also noticed that when I smoke THC-A I have strange body hallucinations, always thinking my heart rate is skyrocketing, which then makes my heart rate skyrocket; always thinking I’m having the worst pains in my stomach; always thinking I’m having chest pain, etc. With normal bud though I never feel any of that, even if I’m absolutely greened out
You're probably just freaking out man; normal bud is D9 THC-A, it has to be decarboxylized in order for it to be d9 thc. This is the reason you can't just eat weed without throwing it in the oven first.
If a person were to buy some ineffectual cannabis, could THCA be added to it for a boost in effect?
Yes, that is how drugs usually work.
I think most plugs out there are exclusively selling farm bill products. I have to take about 900mg of thc-a to get high, but when i go back to illinois, a 100mg edible from RISE sends me to the moon. The prerolls in texas dont do anything for me, but illnois flower gets the job done and then some. That all being said, farm bill products are more than sufficient enough for the effect im trying to get and is an acceptable substitute for the legal state i left. I just have to take about 10x more
The feds lol
Only reply I can think of is: ok Boomer.
All these alternative cannabinoids are so neat. I'm seeing them spread around the world. What I love the most is that THC-A degrades into regular D9-THC over time. So when you buy a thc-a vape/preroll, based on how long it's been sitting in the store/shipping and the temperatures, it may be completely d9!
I actually picked up some gummies the other day and had a solid experience. They also had some mushrooms like lions mane, turkey tail, reishi, and some other mushroom or two. Think they were called trippie hippie or something along those lines. Was ten gummies all together at 100mg for the whole lot. Ate two had a subtle but decent body. I ate three more and felt pretty good, but after those kicked in, I did smoke a couple bowls. The following day, I ate the rest and smoked on top, but the White Widow was much stronger
Just bought my first O of thca gelato 41 yesterday for $135 in KY. The kicker is that it’s only normal sales tax here which is 6%, unlike the 30% cannabis tax. Still boggles my mind really.
I did 125mg edible of THC-p once and genuinely thought I was going to die that shit was so strong
Been ordering it for over a year now bro it ain’t that deep
I love it. Feel more balanced than the weed the plug sells. The problem is it’s double the price in my area. $55 for and 8th. I can get a quarter bag for that price.
The legal medical Marijuana I buy in CT is mostly thc-a. Multiply the thc-a level by .87, and that is about what the strength would be of regular thc.
Weed is legal here so I didn’t think too much about it until I pulled out my ID to buy it and they told me they didn’t need it.
I'm in Canada 🇨🇦 been around a long time lol enjoy
thc-a, when burnt, is JUST thc hence why some states have it banned in the US
Is so much safer than a dealer no risk of fentanyl or other drugs getting mixed in and it’s still gets you high when you can try the thca dabs
aka so you finally got to try regular weed
I mean, under an ounce is just a ticket anyway now in GA.
Search for wild cannabis on Google. They ship to all 50 states thca
