Understanding the over 100 cannabinoids in cannabis can be confusing. While THC and CBD are well-known, comparing Delta 9 THC to other cannabinoids, particularly HHC, raises questions.
What Is the Comparison of Potency Between HHC and Delta 9 THC
THC comes in two forms, Delta 8 and Delta 9 THC. Delta 8 THC has a milder effect compared to Delta 9 THC. The hydrogenation process reduces the potency of Delta 9 THC, making HHC milder than both Delta 8 and Delta 9 THC. If you want a product that is a bit more intense than Delta 8 but not as strong as Delta 9, choosing an HHC product is a good option.
Should First-Time Users Choose HHC or Delta 9 THC?
HHC has a milder effect than Delta 9 THC, and it might take longer to feel its effects. Unlike Delta 9 THC, which can last between 3 and 5 hours, the effects of HHC may not last as long. HHC is a great introduction to THC for those unfamiliar with THC products, providing a moderate high without the intensity of Delta 9 THC.
Delta 9 THC can produce strong psychoactive effects that are enjoyed by many but might be too intense for new users. In contrast, HHC’s effects are milder and shorter-lasting, making it an excellent choice for first-time users. It provides a moderate high with a lower likelihood of increasing anxiety or appetite compared to other cannabinoids.
What Is the Legal Status of Delta 9 THC and HHC?
The 2018 Farm Bill has expanded the legality of hemp products across the United States. However, the legality of cannabis products, including Delta 9 THC, varies. Delta 9 THC is fully legal in 16 US states, so it’s important to check the legality in your state before purchasing. HHC is currently legal without restrictions. Since HHC is a derivative of Delta 9 THC with milder effects, it is often assumed to have the same legal status as Delta 8 THC. As a result, HHC is legal in all 38 states where Delta 8 THC is permitted.
