    I quit smoking more than 15 years ago, but I don’t understand it either. And I mean worldwide.

    Alcohol and tobacco are way more harmful to our health, why not legalize this?

    THCA is legal in all but a handful of states that have specifically outlawed it. Eight horses hemp, flow gardens, and plenty of other online vendors. It will show up in your mailbox with no issue. I’m in Texas and i get an ounce delivered on subscription every month. If you prefer vapes to flower, check out secret garden.

        I mean, THCA weed is just… Regular weed.

        THCA is the compound that is turned into THC when heated.

        It’s just a fun little loophole for now. THCA weed is the same weed we’ve been smoking forever.

          or you could just… smoke the real thing?

          loopholes are for those poor sods who can’t get their states to act sanely imho.

            That’s just it. It is literally chemically the exact same thing, just called something different because the people that wrote the law weren’t paying attention when they wrote it.

            THCA (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid) is the same shit, no matter whether it’s directly referred to as THCA is not. It’s the precursor to D9 THC (Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol), present in all strains of C. sativa, and gets decarboxylated into D9 when heated. It’s named specifically on stuff you buy online because the law defines D9 itself as the illegal compound. Since D9 directly is only present in trace amounts until you smoke or otherwise heat the plant material, you end with a legal product.

            Not a chemist or a lawyer, I just like watching YouTube stoned…

              but it’s not coming from a marijuana plant cultivated for it’s unique combo of terpenes, THC and aromatics. it’s magicked out of hemp.

              no thanks, prefer the real thing. you can re-explain how ‘naw man it’s totally normal and the same’ over and over again.

              no. thanks.

                D8 and D10, sure (though their actual safety is a different issue) but the stuff sold as THCA is generally just regular weed, chosen and cultivated to be under the legal limit for ‘free’ D9.

                You do you, but the chemistry is what it is.

          THCA is the s-tier of red state hemp. It’s kind of hard to find. It doesn’t taste like nitric acid and it actually feels like weed. Dispensary weed is so much better, if I had half a chance to move somewhere it’s legal I would go for it. If I’m ever in a living situation where I could grow it and 100% get away with it I would.

      Prob isn’t going to change your mind, but tobacco and alcohol both have higher chances of inducing some form of psychosis than cannabis.

      CIP isn’t very well studied yet, and is mostly symptomatic in patients that indulge in prolonged and heavy cannabis use at a young age. There hasn’t been enough evidence collected to rule out correlative conditions like schizophrenia, which is known to be exacerbated by any psychoactive substance unlike cannabis.

      There are of course people who shouldn’t smoke cannabis on a regular basis, but for the most part, cannabis is a healthier choice for most healthy adults than alcohol, tobacco, and a large amount of prescription drugs.

          so you kind of overdose most of the time as the cannabis from then is not the same as the cannabis from now. It’s something entirely different now and what association you had with it is not valid anymore.

          Lol, you can’t “overdose” on cannabis, unless over dosing is just taking a nap.

          my personal friendships are several people who have lost family members to cannabis, either by schizophrenia or them getting smushy in the brain and stranding on the street or living by at minimum wage and healthcare.

          Kinda just sounds like your using cannabis as an excuse to abandon your friends and family going through a rough patch.

          healthcare for psychological evaluation and coordinating hospitalization and care. When cannabis was legalized some time ago, all who are working there could not believe their ears and eyes, they were horrified

          Lol, you are clutching at pearls. I work in a hospital in an area of the US that’s known for addiction. No one here cares about pot because it’s nothing compared to dealing with patients addicted to meth, alcohol, or opioids. All of which are less popular now that pot is more widely available.
