What Is Delta-9 THC?

The Delta 9 THC is a prominent cannabinoid identified in the cannabis plant. Known for its psychoactive effects that produce the characteristic ‘high’, Delta 9 THC has been the focus of much research in the cannabis community. However, recent discoveries have brought to light a potentially more potent cannabinoid, Tetrahydrocannabiphorol (THCp). Its unique molecular structure is currently under the microscope, with researchers eagerly exploring its heightened potency and consequent effects. This newfound interest in THCp is significantly altering our understanding of cannabinoids and the diverse range of effects they can produce.

What Are The Benefits Of Delta-9?

Many people enjoy taking delta-9 because of the euphoria it produces. However, another benefit of this compound is its accessibility. Since it is legal on the federal level, delta-9 can be bought conveniently online and in some stores. Then, it is delivered directly to your home, adding to its appeal. 

Along with providing euphoria, it also contributes to the entourage effect, which is another advantage. Adding delta-9 to CBD products makes each compound more effective, and these types of products are known as “full spectrum,” meaning they contain all the compounds found in the hemp plant. Delta-9 products, like our Fruit Punch Delta-9 THC Gummies, still offer the entourage effect because they also contain cannabinoids like CBN and CBG. 

Is Delta-9 Safe?

Provided it is used in a controlled and responsible manner, delta-9 products generally pose no harm to those 21 years of age and older. People under this age should not use delta-9 products for safety and legal reasons.

Also, those who are pregnant or breastfeeding should stay away from delta-9, along with those with pre-existing medical conditions and those on medication. In general, it is a good idea to speak with your doctor before taking any hemp-based product to ensure it does not pose any risk to your health. 

After taking delta-9, it is important not to drive or operate any heavy machinery, as the effects may leave you impaired. Lastly, to ensure your safety, you should carefully follow the manufacturer’s recommendation for dosing the delta-9 product. You may experience mild, albeit uncomfortable, side effects if you take too much.

However, it is important to remember that these will pass as the delta-9 leaves your system. The best way to ensure a good experience is to start with a low dose and work your way up as you learn how delta-9 affects your body.

Is Delta-9 Legal?

Although it is still considered a controlled substance when derived from cannabis, thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill, delta-9 is legal if it is sourced from hemp and in an amount less than 0.3%. 

Legal Status

What Is Hemp?

The hemp plant is part of the cannabis family, except it contains a high level of CBD and low amounts (less than 0.3%) of delta-9 THC.

Federal Law

Due to the passing of the 2018 Farm Bill, hemp products containing less than 0.3% delta-9 THC are legal on the federal level. This has led to the emergence of delta-8, CBD, and, of course, delta-9 products, among others, in the market. 

State Law

Hemp products containing less than 0.3% delta-9 THC are legal in all 50 states. However, some states have placed regulations on or have banned delta-8 THC altogether. That is why it is important to check your local laws before buying any hemp-based product to ensure you are operating legally. 

Our products are not intended to treat any medical conditions, including sleep disorders. While hemp-based products are thought to help promote healthy sleep, it is important to consult your doctor if you are having any sleep-related issues.
Delta-9 affects people differently, but it has been said that delta-9 helps some focus due to its soothing properties. However, it may make others more sedated; so, it depends on how you individually react to delta-9.

Delta-9 is a psychoactive compound, so it does produce euphoric sensations when used in larger amounts. However, legal delta-9 is derived from hemp and is only present in low quantities. So, using legal, or hemp-derived, delta-9 products may not result in a strong euphoria. Instead, you may get more mild, relaxing effects from Delta-9.

Since delta-9 is new to the hemp market due to the recent change in legality, it is mostly only available in edible form, mainly gummies. As such, delta-9 edibles have to pass through the digestive system before the effects are felt, meaning they take about an hour or two to kick in. Since they are consumed, factors like when you ate last, your bodyweight, your metabolism, etc., determine how long it takes to feel the effects.

If delta-9 manufacturers expand to offer different products, such as flowers and vape carts, the time it will take the delta-9 to kick in will be different. Products that are inhaled are felt much quicker due to the fact they are directly absorbed by the lungs. As a result, the effects are near-immediate.

Side effects usually only occur if you take an excess of delta-9, which is difficult to do with hemp-derived delta-9. Still, taking too much delta-9 could result in side effects such as an increased heart rate and anxiety. But, remember that the effects vary by individual. If you do experience any side effects, do not take any more delta-9 and consult your doctor.

You can buy delta-9 online, and at BudPop, you can get our Fruit Punch Delta-9 THC Gummies delivered right to your door. Along with 15mg of delta-9, each gummy also has 2mg of CBC, CBG, and CBN, providing the entourage effect. Our Delta-9 Gummies are also vegan-friendly and delicious, as they come in Blueberry, Kiwi, Mango, Strawberry, and Watermelon flavors. 

Taking any type of delta-9, legal or otherwise, will likely result in a positive drug test. As a result, it is best to avoid delta-9 products before your drug test. Although hemp-derived delta-9 is legal, it still breaks down into the same THC metabolites that drug tests look for, resulting in a failed test. Even if you take full-spectrum CBD products, which contain a small amount of delta-9 THC, you still run the risk of testing positive. As a result, it is best to avoid any hemp products in the weeks leading up to your drug test. 

Since delta-9 products only come in gummy form, they are simple to use. You just chew the recommended number of gummies (the label will tell you how many), and wait for the effects to hit.

Since delta-9 gummies come in pre-measured amounts, they are easy to dose. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendation on how many gummies to consume at once. If you are a beginner, it is a good idea to start lower by cutting the gummy in half. Once you see how a smaller dose affects you, you can increase it as your tolerance grows.
