It’s hemp, so low THC, so doesn’t do a whole lot.
It’s better than nothing, technically, but you’re basically buying oregano all over again in middle school.
It’s ok, it works for you, but it’s not real weed, I would call it gas station weed lol
My subscription is type 2 (thc+cbd) and i buy type 1 (high thc) when there's a good strain on sale. Both are legally available at the links i shared. Not sure about gas station weed - i haven't seen that.
I hear you, but you are smoking hemp, not real weed. It’s classified as such as there is low THC, as in, not real weed. When I say real weed, I mean what the DEA says is real weed, not what some random company is selling. You aren’t going to jail in your illegal state for weed with your hemp.
You can go read all about it on the wiki, but again, you aren’t smoking real weed nor getting high.
A good friend of mine was telling me the same thing as we were hitting my bong. I blew his mind when I told him we were smoking the very stuff he was claiming wasn't real. He admitted he could not tell any difference at all and would not have known had I not told him. I had to show him the packaging because he thought I was kidding.
He couldn't tell a difference because there is no functional difference the instant heat is applied to it. THCa is the natural precursor to THC in cannabis. It becomes regular old THC the instant heat is applied to it.
You are still just smoking hemp, and unlikely actually getting high. I’m sorry you don’t really understand it either like the first person I pointed this out to.
THCa does not get you high, that’s why it’s legally allowed to be grown in America because it’s not an illegal substance….as it is not psychoactive.
THC converts down from THCa when you combust it, so even if there is a large THCa concentration, it results in a low THC amount and not getting you high like you’d expect.
