THCP Flower

THCP Flower: Taste the Power

THCP is a new and exciting compound just recently discovered. The cannabinoid can be enjoyed in many different ways, including carts and disposable vapes. However, the most popular way to consume the cannabinoid is through THCP flower. But what exactly is THCP flower? What is the process by which it is made and what should you look for when choosing the right THCP flower?

What is THCP Flower?

THCP flower is hemp flower with added THCP. This product is essentially the same thing you’d buy from a local dispensary or dealer: a smokable flower that produces the same psychoactive effects of cannabis when lit and inhaled. THCP, however, is not just any cannabinoid. It is so potent that its psychoactive level has become the stuff of dreams! But what exactly is THCP? And why has it gained such a reputation?

As of now, THCP, or tetrahydrocannabiphorol, is the strongest, most powerful cannabinoid discovered in cannabis plants. It's an analog of THC which is believed to have about 33 times the potency of regular delta 9. To put things in perspective, delta 9 is twice as powerful as delta 8 and around 30% more powerful than HHC.

A group of Italian researchers discovered the compound accidentally in 2019. They weren't searching for new cannabinoids, but simply wanted to examine cannabis samples from a closer angle. According to their findings, THCP interacts primarily with CB1 receptors in the endocannabinoid system, just like THC. However, unlike THC, THCP has a much stronger affinity for CB1 receptors. It's thought to be around 33 times more effective at binding to them, making it much more powerful than THC.

It has a longer alkyl side chain than THC on a scientific level. THCP's longer alkyl side chain binds to receptors in the endocannabinoid system more effectively, which is why it's so strong on a molecular level. In other words, THCP has a longer side chain, so it produces a bigger buzz.

Even though research on the compound is still relatively in its infancy because it was just recently discovered, we do know a thing or two about THCP. We know it gets you astronomically high, but THCP has some other benefits as well. The same team of researchers who initially discovered THCP also learned that THCP can be beneficial to the human body in many ways.

According to their research, THCP may have the following benefits:

• Stretching short, tight ligaments (hypomobility)
• Mild to severe pain relief
• Help with sleep, especially for those in pain
• May lower body temperature, especially in the rectum

Is THCP Flower Legal?

THCP flower is legal at the federal level under the Farm Bill of 2018. Known as the Agriculture Improvement Act, this bill was signed into law by Donald Trump. Legal distinctions have been established between marijuana and hemp as a result of the Farm Bill, where marijuana is defined as cannabis plants containing more than 0.3% THC and hemp is defined as cannabis plants containing 0.3% THC or less on a dry-weight basis. Although the Agriculture Improvement Act legalized hemp and hemp derivatives, it did not legalize marijuana, which is still considered an illegal schedule I substance. For your THCP product to be considered federally legal, it must be extracted from hemp and contain 0.3% THC or less.

Many states have passed laws prohibiting or heavily restraining hemp products, including THCP, despite the government's assessment and acceptance of hemp and hemp compounds. While the compound hasn't been specifically mentioned in state legislation, it may not be legal in the following states:

• Alaska
• Arizona
• Arkansas
• Colorado
• Delaware
• Idaho
• Iowa
• Mississippi
• Montana
• New York
• Rhode Island
• Utah
• Vermont
• Washington

How Do You Smoke THCP Flower?

THCP flower can be smoked in a variety of ways, just like regular weed, and it's up to you to choose which one works best for you. The choice is yours, whether you smoke THCP flower in a joint or blunt, a pipe, a bong, or even eat it. Let's take a closer look at each of these methods.

You can enjoy your THCP flower with joints or blunts if you're in a crowd of friends. For this smoking method, you'll need some prior rolling experience or the help of a quick YouTube tutorial. In spite of their similarities, blunts and joints are different. Blunts contain cannabis and tobacco because they are made with tobacco leaf wraps. When it comes to joints, on the other hand, the sheets are usually made of hemp, rice, straw, or even wood pulp, so you get 100% cannabis. If you like cannabis and tobacco together, you can also make a spliff, which involves sprinkling in some tobacco and sealing the wrappers shut.

Another popular way to smoke flower is with a bong or pipe. The bong cools the smoke before it reaches your lungs with water, which traps particles and molecules that are water-soluble. A pipe, on the other hand, is generally a smaller piece that does not involve water. In terms of transportability, a pipe is certainly the most better piece between the two, but if you prefer a cleaner, more intense hit, a bong is more suitable.

It is also possible to make THCP flower edibles. Although it isn't a way to smoke the flower per se, it is certainly a great way to enjoy it. You won't get high simply by munching on your nugs because they have not been properly decarboxylated. To activate the psychoactive elements in your weed, you must heat it up. When you make cannabutter from your nugs, you certainly decarb them, and you end up with delicious butter you can infuse into virtually anything. This is a great method to lighten the load on your throat and lungs, and also make the cannabinoid's effects last longer and feel stronger.

In order to use THCP flower effectively, you need to choose your own style. There are many ways to use it. You can try them all, or stick to one, depending on your needs and desired effects. If you cannot smoke for any reason, making edibles might be your best option. If you want to throw it back with some old school sessions, go for joints or blunts. Bongs or pipes may be for you if you aren't great at rolling and prefer to ration out your weed based on bowl packs. Whatever you choose is entirely up to you!

Different Types of THCP Flower Available

Our THCP flower comes in many blends and strains. But what exactly does that mean? Our blends contain not only THCP, but also other fan-favorites such as delta 8 and HHC. They provide you with the full range of benefits of cannabinoids, not just THCP, making them more enjoyable and well-rounded.

While strains may take a little time to explain, they are also easy to understand. There are three types of THCP flower strains: indica, sativa, and hybrid.

Known for its short, bushy appearance, and its calming and relaxing effects, indica is native to Central Asia. It is commonly grown in Pakistan, India, and Afghanistan. Indica induces a strong “body high” that leaves you feeling chilled out, making it the perfect strain to unwind after a long day at work. Further, indica strains can assist with sleep, reduce pain, and facilitate meditation. The phrase "in-di-couch" can be used to memorize the sedative effects of indica.

In contrast, sativa is everything that indica is not. This strain is perfect for wake-n-bake sessions on a busy day because it produces a strong “head high” that makes it great for concentration, focus, and conversation. It is energizing and euphoric in nature. It doesn't matter if you're working or enjoying a fast-paced night out with friends, sativa is the perfect strain to keep you motivated, energized, and engaged.

Finally, we have hybrid strains, which, as their name suggests, are a combination of sativa and indica strains. Hybrids combine the best properties of both types of strains into one product. Among the most popular hybrid strains are indica-dominant strains, sativa-dominant strains, and half-and-half strains. It depends on the type of hybrid you choose whether the effects of one type of strain will be more intense than the other, but hybrid strains essentially give you the best of both worlds.

How is THCP Flower Grown?

THCP is naturally found in cannabis plants, but only in trace amounts, so it is produced by isomerizing CBD in a safe and professional manner. All cannabinoids, from CBD to THC, share a similar molecular structure due to the fact that they are all derivatives of cannabigerolic acid (CBGA), sometimes referred to as "the mother cannabinoid." In isomerization, molecules are rearranged in one compound to form another.

The THCP is then refined into a THCP distillate, a pure product containing only THCP. In order to make THCP flower, we follow a multi-step process. We start with premium, high-quality organic hemp, which is coated in delta 8 kief and distillate oil. As the nugs are coated numerous times, their psychoactive properties increase with each coat. As a result, THCP flowers are remarkably high-quality, similar to those you'd find in a dispensary.

What to Look for When Buying THCP Flower

There are many factors to look out for when buying THCP flower. It is important to consider the strain and the desired effect as well as the quality of the nugs. However, the most important factor to consider is the commitment to safety and reliability of the retailer or manufacturer when buying THCP flower.

Since hemp-derived cannabinoids are not closely monitored by the FDA, retailers and manufacturers must set their own standards for quality, safety, and purity, making it your responsibility to find a THCP source that cares about your safety and the quality of your product.

CBD Mall uses non-GMO hemp grown right here in the United States to produce all of its products. Our cannabinoids are extracted using only the most advanced extraction methods by knowledgeable scientists. A third-party lab test is conducted on all CBD Mall products to ensure they are free of contaminants, additives, and other harmful pollutants, and for potency and purity. You can buzz without a fuss when you shop with CBD Mall.
