Yes, that’s right – another THC variant. This time, we’re talking about THC-B. Find out more about this hemp alt noid and what it offers in terms of effects and benefits. But first, let’s dig into its chemical makeup and how its made.
What is THC-B?
Tetrahydrocannabutol? It’s like a distant cousin of Delta-9 THC, and it’s so rare that it only makes up less than 1% of the plant’s chemical makeup. It’s basically the hidden gem of the cannabis world. Some fancy cannabis researchers discovered THC-B back in 2019 by using some super advanced liquid chromatography to isolate new cannabinoids. And get this, they found it at the same time as another popular cannabinoid, Tetrahydrocannabiphorol (THC-P).
THC-B is no joke, though. It’s as strong as THC-P, but 30 times stronger than regular Delta-9. And the reason for that is because it has a butyl side chain instead of a pentyl one. That helps it attach to CB1 receptors in the brain more effectively, making its effects crazy potent. But listen up, since THC-B is so new, there isn’t a lot of research on it yet. But don’t worry, many people have already tried it and swear it’s up there with their fave hemp derivatives because of its strong and satisfying effects. So, if you’re feeling adventurous, give THC-B a try and see what all the fuss is about.
How is THC-B Made?
Since THC-B only shows up in tiny amounts in cannabis plants, it’s most often synthesized from other cannabinoids to get enough for infusion into products like vape carts and disposables.
The process is called isomerization, and it is some mad scientist stuff. The process typically starts with hemp-derived cannabinoids like CBD, before rearranging the molecular structure to make THC-B.
Is THC-B Legal?
The 2018 Farm Bill made hemp federally legal in the US of A. But, there’s a catch. Any hemp product must contain less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC by total volume. If it meets those demands, it’s all good. However, remember that states have the right to regulate even hemp-derived cannabinoids. The best way to determine if THC-B is legal where you live is to check in on your state cannabis laws.
How Strong is THC-B?
Hey there, my fellow tokers, listen up. So, you know how Delta-9 THC can make you feel all loopy and giggly? Well, THC-B takes that high to a whole new level. And the reason is simple – this bad boy is the king of attaching to those CB1 receptors in your brain that get you high. It’s like it’s been doing bicep curls for days, getting swole for that superior high.
You’ll feel like you’re on top of the world, with a sweet, sweet euphoria washing over you. Negative thoughts? Buh-bye. And your body? It’s gonna be so relaxed, you might as well be a wet noodle. Sounds pretty sweet, right? Get ready to take a trip to cloud nine, my buds.
THC-B Benefits and Uses
So THC-B is still pretty new, you know what I mean? There’s only been one study done so far and it barely scratched the surface of what this cannabinoid can do. We’re talking uncharted territory here!
But, the data we do have suggests that THC-B could be a lot like THC, with some potential for pain relief and anti-inflammatory action. Some users report that THC-B is a fantastic remedy for getting a good night’s sleep. The best way to discover its unique properties is to try some for yourself and see how it affects you! Remember, this stuff can be very potent, so go slow and start with just a puff or two.
