What is the Difference Between Delta-8 THC and Delta-9?
Hemp-derived Delta-8 THC is very similar to Delta-9 THC — it’s different by only a few atomic bonds. While they have similar effects, there are slight differences. Notably, Delta-8 has a slower, milder impact on your biochemistry.
While Delta-9 and Delta-8 are both cannabinoids that both produce a “high,” you’ll likely experience a much more mellow feeling when you take Delta-8 tetrahydrocannabinol products. The sensation will be less intense, as will the potential for adverse side effects with a Delta-8 THC high. So you won’t experience the anxiety, sweating, or paranoia that come with conventional cannabis products while still getting the same euphoric high.
What is Delta-8 THC compared to Delta-9? They are both hemp-derived, but only products containing more than 0.3% Delta-9 are federally illegal. Although each state has its own rules, Delta-8 is generally far more accessible. Try it in a vape or even a rice krispie. No matter what your favorite way to enjoy Delta-8 is, we’ve got you covered.
Why Specify “Hemp-Derived” Delta-8 THC?
Terminology is important! Hemp and marijuana are both subspecies of the cannabis plant, but only Delta-8 tetrahydrocannabinol derived from hemp is legal.
The 2018 Farm Bill made it legal to produce and distribute hemp and its byproducts across the United States. For hemp to be considered legal, it must contain less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC.
In some states, it is still currently illegal to ship hemp-derived Delta-8 THC. Check our shipping policy for more details.
