THCa hemp refers to cannabis plants or products that contain high levels of tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCa) while maintaining delta-9 THC levels below the legal limit of 0.3% by dry weight
THCa is the non-psychoactive precursor to THC found abundantly in raw, unheated cannabis plants
Unlike THC, THCa does not produce intoxicating effects when consumed in its raw form
However, when heated through smoking, vaping, or cooking, THCa converts to psychoactive THC through a process called decarboxylation
THCa hemp is considered federally legal as long as it contains no more than 0.3% delta-9 THC by dry weight
However, state laws may vary, and the legal landscape is complex. Some states may have restrictions on THCa products, while others follow federal guidelines.
Using THCa products, regardless of whether they’re heated or consumed raw, is highly likely to result in a failed drug test for THC. If you’re subject to drug testing, it’s advisable to avoid THCa products entirely to minimize the risk of failing a test
