THCa (Tetrahydrocannabinolic Acid) might sound complicated, but it’s actually simple: heat it, and it transforms. In its natural form, THCa, the precursor to THC, is non-psychoactive in its raw state, but once you smoke, vape, or cook it—it converts into Delta-9 THC, unlocking its full potential.

So, how is this legal? The 2018 Farm Bill allows hemp products with less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC by dry weight, meaning your THCa flower is federally compliant until you decide to activate it.
